VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 20, 2020 / Ximen Mining Corp. (TSXV:XIM)(FRA:1XMA)(OTCQB:XXMMF) (the “Company” or “Ximen”) is pleased to announce that it will commence the 2020 exploration season with exploration work on its Providence property in the Greenwood mining camp in southern British Columbia.
Vein quartz from historic Providence mine 3.87 g/t gold and 100 g/t silver
Exploration at the Providence property is scheduled to start next week and will include rock sampling, trenching and diamond drilling. This property surrounds the historic Providence mine, which operated intermittently from 1893 to 1973, yielding 5884 OZ of gold, 1,368,079 OZ silver, 183 tonnes of lead, 118 tonnes of zinc from 10,426 tonnes of ore mined. The ore minerals include pyrite, galena, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, tetrahedrite, proustite, native silver and free gold.
Previous prospecting by Ximen crews identified a mine dump near the historic Providence mine, from which a sample returned significant gold and silver values (3.87 grams per tonne gold and 100 grams per tonne silver). The Company recently completed a GIS compilation of all historic data for the Providence property and has identified targets for follow-up exploration for gold-silver veins and skarn gold-copper deposits.
Analyses disclosed in this release were conducted by ALS Global – Geochemistry Analytical Lab in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. ALS is an independent, fully accredited commercial laboratory. Gold was determined by the fire assay method using a 50 gram sample weight. Other metals were analyzed as part of a 33-element package using a four acid digestion and determination by ICP-AES.
