Ximen Mining Corp. (TSXV: XIM) (OTC Pink: XXMMF) has commenced its 2024 drill program at the Brett epithermal gold project near Vernon, BC. The company has mobilized equipment, including a diamond drill, D6 Cat, and Hitachi excavator, and established a temporary camp. The program aims to extend the Main Zone to the southeast and at depth, and test extensions of the New Discovery Zone.

Drill holes were designed using multiple parameters, including gold soil anomalies, geophysical data, and proximity to high gold assays. The Brett project covers 20,043 hectares of low-sulfidation epithermal-style gold mineralization. Historical results include a 291-tonne surface bulk sample averaging 27.74 g/t gold and 63.7 g/t silver. Multiple mineralized zones occur over a two-kilometer strike, featuring both bulk-mineable and high-grade styles.

Ximen Mining Corp. (TSXV: XIM) (OTC Pink: XXMMF) ha avviato il suo programma di perforazione per il 2024 presso il progetto aurifero epithermale Brett nei pressi di Vernon, BC. L'azienda ha mobilitato attrezzature, inclusi un trapano a diamante, un bulldozer D6 Cat e un escavatore Hitachi, e ha allestito un campo temporaneo. Il programma mira a estendere la Zona Principale verso sud-est e in profondità, e a testare le estensioni della Zona Nuova Scoperta.

I fori di perforazione sono stati progettati utilizzando molteplici parametri, tra cui anomalie aurifere nel suolo, dati geofisici e prossimità a elevati contenuti d’oro. Il progetto Brett copre 20.043 ettari di mineralizzazione aurifera di tipo epithermale a bassa solfatazione. I risultati storici includono un campione di superficie di 291 tonnellate con una media di 27,74 g/t d’oro e 63,7 g/t d’argento. Sono presenti più zone mineralizzate su un fronte di due chilometri, comprese sia stili minerari estrabili in massa che stili ad alta gradazione.

The drill program is designed to extend the most prominent mineralized zone at the Brett, the Main Zone to the southeast and at depth, and to test for extensions to the New Discovery Zone (located east of the Main Zone). Drill holes were designed and ranked using parameters including gold soil anomalies, pathfinder element soil anomalies, resistivity, IP chargeability, magnetic anomalies, VLF anomaly, LiDAR lineaments, porphyry proximity, and high gold assay proximity.

The first drill hole is designed to confirm results of historic holes on the Main Zone and test a western zone of anomalous gold (see Figure 1)

The Brett project (20,043 hectares) covers low-sulfidation epithermal-style gold mineralization hosted in Eocene Penticton Group volcanic rocks. Epithermal-style gold mineralization was discovered in 1983, and a 291 tonne surface bulk sample was shipped to the smelter at Trail, BC in the 1990's that averaged 27.74 grams per tonne gold and 63.7 grams per tonne silver (Brett 2017 NI 43-101 report). Multiple zones of mineralization occur over a two kilometer strike, including both bulk-mineable and bonanza high grade styles. Ximen conducted LiDAR and airborne magnetic surveys over parts of the Brett property in 2022. Interpretation, 3D modeling and target refinement were then completed in preparation for the 2024 drilling program.
