Sampling Highlights: 30,228.7g/t (881.7opt) Au Over 0.2m (0.7ft) 106' South of 5400 Crosscut; 632.8g/t (18.5opt) Au Over 0.5m (1.6ft) 135' North of 5370 Crosscut
ELKO, NV and VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - Jul 10, 2013) - Klondex Mines Ltd. (
To date, 144.2m (473ft) of exploration development is now complete on the Joyce Structure. Previous drilling near the 5400 and 5370 crosscuts demonstrate that the mineralization extends beyond the current boundaries, both along strike and at depth.
Mike Doolin, Fire Creek General Manager commented, "We are obviously very pleased with the results and the valuable perspective the data provides. Not only do these results confirm the continuity of the mineralization along strike, but they also demonstrate the overall grade consistency within the Joyce Structure."

The potential quantities and grades of the mineralization reported above are conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient work to date to define a mineral resource in the Joyce Vein structure. Furthermore, it is uncertain if further exploration will result in discovery of a mineral resource in this area of the Fire Creek project.
Sampling a given face is conducted after the face location has been measured, photographed, and mapped in detail. Continuous rock-chip channel samples are then collected by Klondex staff in 11" x 17" sample bags from the footwall, vein, and hanging wall. Salient features including sample number, channel length, location on face, rock type, and alteration are documented. Samples are sent to SGS Mineral Services Division lab in Elko, Nevada, an independent laboratory, for gravimetric fire assay analysis with blanks and standards.
