Ximen Commences IP Survey on the Brett Gold Property, Vernon, BC
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 12, 2014) - Ximen Mining Corp. (TSXV: XIM) (Frankfurt: 1XM) (OTCQX: XXMMF) (the "Company" or "Ximen") is pleased to announce the IP survey on the Brett property has commenced. A total of 20 line km of survey is planned. The survey will test the large magnetic low anomaly that was defined by the recently completed ground magnetic survey, as well an additional 400m to the north. The newly discovered mag-low anomaly measures 1.1 by 1.1 kilometers in size and remains open to the north and east. It is a blind target under glacial till cover, with minimal rock exposed on surface. Elsewhere on the property, similar (but much smaller) magnetic low anomalies are associated with known gold-bearing epithermal veins and associated magnetite-destructive alteration.
The IP survey will cover the Gossan zone and the Milo trench, both areas of strong silicification and pyritization with local quartz stockwork veining that occur within and are encompassed by, the mag-low anomaly. The spatial relationship of the mag-low feature to the alteration in these areas suggests that the broad mag-low zone may be related to the same magnetite-destructive alteration exposed in outcrop in these areas. The size and strength of the anomaly suggests a very large alteration zone, extending laterally well beyond the exposures seen at the Gossan zone and Milo trench.
The IP survey is expected to provide subsurface definition within this large target area, for drill testing in the upcoming diamond drill program.
