Ximen Mining Corp. plans for 2017

16.02.2017  |  FSCwire
Vancouver - Ximen Mining Corp. (the “Company” or “Ximen”) (TSX-V: XIM) is pleased to announce its upcoming plans for 2017.

 “We are anticipating a very active and busy 2017 on all three projects, The Brett Gold Project, The Gold Drop project and the Treasure Mountain Silver Zinc base metal project.  All projects have permitting in place for drilling and the later two are being funded by our option partners.”

says Christopher Anderson, president and chief executive officer of Ximen Mining.

Current updates and Activities

Currently the company has been conducting a comprehensive logging and sampling program on the 16 HQ diamond drill holes totaling 2364 meters, that was completed last fall, but was subject only to a selective sampling program as news released on November 21st 2016. There is currently three of the 16 holes that have been logged and sampled and submitted to ALS, results are expected shortly.

The company has been working towards finalising a 43-101 for the Brett Gold project and plan to have this completed by end of this quarter. A 43-101 has recently been completed on the Treasure Mountain Silver Zinc base metal project and this will be released to the publicly once the option agreement has been approved. The updated 43-101 for the Gold Drop project can be viewed on the sedar.

Objectives for 2017

The Brett Gold Project – Vernon BC

The company plans to bring on a full-time VP of exploration dedicated to the advancement of the Brett Gold Project specifically.  Currently the company has been conducting interviews and a final decision is expected in the next 30 day. The Senior advisors to Ximen will be playing an active roll this year in the field.

Drilling

Execute a 2017 drilling program, which will be based on upcoming drill results for the last drill program now being processed for results as well as the upcoming 2017 field exploration work, that is expected to beginning in May

Magnetic Survey

The company plans to conduct an Airborne magnetic survey over the 200-sq km land package. Active hydrothermal systems contain acid fluids which destroy natural magnetite, and these become magnetic lows void of magnetite. Targeting magnetic lows during a gold search is part of the exploration process.  A contract will be awarded once we identify the company that can provide superior results.

Below is a 1.5 Km by 1.5 Km mag survey conducted by Ximen in the 2014 field season, mag lows are represented in the areas of blue and purple. The large area in blue at the top left has little to no out crop. The 2014 drilling did produce wide spread low grade gold intersection however Ximen is focused on developing the high grade gold opportunities with in this large epithermal system.

TerraSpec analysis

The company will also be completing a TerraSpec analysis of rock samples from the Brett Gold Project. The hand held instrument identifies individual alteration minerals in rocks, which can then be contoured to better define the hydrothermal system and develop new targets. Spectral analysis is an important practice in the mining industry as it complements other data sets and helps geologists to see more subtle mineral changes that are difficult to detect in mapping or core logging. Samples have been collected and will be submitted early next week for analysis.

The Adit

The company plans to install a portal door on the existing adit, which leads to 1400 feet of development, additionally, it includes 300 feet of development over three raises. Al Beaton And Alex Mcpherson were the original contractors who carried out the original tunnel work and are advising Ximen. The tunnel was examined in 2015 by Al Beaton who reported the workings in excellent shape which will require only minor rehabilitation .

Original Adit  Stockpile

Auguring Program

During the development of the original adit and the three raises, material was removed and stock piled. Ximen plans an auguring and sampling program this year to test the overall viability of this material. Surface grab sampling from the 1200 ton stock pile in 2014 resulted in gold values ranging from 2 to4 grams gold per ton. It is estimated that there is approximately 1200 tons of this material from the portal stock piled just out side the entrance.

The first raise targeted the high grade hole RC88-11, which assayed 2.03 oz/t over 235 feet. Additionally, samples at the back end of the adit from the other two raises assayed 1oz/ton gold. Ximen plans to map and resample the tunnel and the three raises to better define the gold mineralization It is estimated that there is approximately 5000 tons of material directly associated with, and surrounding the original RC88-11 hole, and this sampling program will better define the extent of this material.

Area of previous Bulk Sample

This 300 ton bulk sample was removed at surface over 1000 metres away from the original RC88-11 hole. It was processed at Cominco’s smelter and returned 1oz gold 2 oz silver per ton of ore with a 96% recovery. As of today this mineralization has remained open.

Ximen has completed plans to redesign opening where the bulk sample was taken to ensure that the overall integrity of the walls meet current standards. As well in the redesign, planning will provide an access point for an additional adit to provide access to a new undeveloped area of mineralization. Plans have been completed, but will be subject to further drilling and geological modeling. In the process, it is expected that a small amount of material similar to that of the previous bulk sample will be generated.
