The Kenville Mine was British Columbia's first hard rock gold mine, having been discovered in 1887. It was mined intermittently between 1890 and 1954, with recorded production of 65,381 ounces of gold, 27,685 ounces of silver, 23.5 tonnes of lead, 15 tonnes of zinc, 1.6 tonnes of copper and 37 kilograms of cadmium from 181,375 tonnes processed.For more information, please view the InvestmentPitch Media \"video\" which provides additional information about this news and the company.

No mineral resource estimate was ever made for the new zones intersected by drilling west and south of the mine. However, in 2009 the previous operator produced a NI 43-101 report, now historic, based on detailed sampling conducted within the mine which disclosed a Measured and Indicated resource estimate of 16,289 ounces and an Inferred resource estimate of 356,949 ounces gold.Initially, Micon will create a resource estimate for the new decline project to support plans for a 10,000-tonne bulk sample. This new resource estimate, focused on areas not previously reported on in earlier historic mineral resource estimates, will be the basis for a new NI 43-101 resource estimate. Ximen is continuing to advance its conceptual fast-track development schedule for the Kenville Bulk Sample, with permitting for the new mine development progressing well with the application now under technical review by the Mines Review Committee.
