Ximen Mining Reports Drilling Progress

Vancouver, B.C. - (September 9, 2016 - TSX-V: XIM) Ximen Mining Corp. (the “Company” or “Ximen”) is pleased to announce that as of August 12th Mr. John Dadds has joined the team as exploration manager to head up and manage Ximen’s current drill program. To date (13) thirteen drill holes have been completed on the Brett epithermal gold project near Vernon. Assay results are expected in late September. 

About the Drill Program

Up to 22 holes or approximately 3000 metres of systematic drilling is planned. The drill holes will be aimed to delineate high grade bonanza shoots within the Main Zone mineralized structure as well as target sub-parallel mineralized structures. Spacing is approximately 50 meters apart and to a depth of up to 250 meters

Gold Silver mineralization consists of native gold, electrum and argentite and is associated with multiphase silicification, chalcedony breccias, veins, stockwork veinlets as well as late-state calcite fillings within the silicified zones and veinlets.  The structural orientations and interpretation of the breccia zones, veins and veinlets from the systematic drilling will assist in delineating high-grade bonanza shoots.

Past drilling assay results have returned many bonanza-grade drill intercepts through the what has been labeled the Main Zone structure. The best one to date is from hole R-88 with 4.9 ounces per ton (169.6 gpt) over 25.1 feet (7.65 m). Additionally, 10 more intercepts of over one ounce per ton are reported while another 14 intercepts ranging from 0.3 opt to 1.0 ounce per ton are also reported.  Besides multiple high grade drilling intercepts, 291 tonnes of ore was removed and processed at the Cominco smelter in Trail, where the recovered values averaged 27.74 g/t Gold and 63.7 g/t Silver.

“We are now into the first 200 days of a major Gold bull market, Ximen is in control and owns 100% of a very large epidermal gold district in southern BC, which has proven to deliver multiply high grade intercepts, backed up with a successful high grade bulk sample. We are currently in the midst of completing a major HQ drill program, with results expected in the next month, things are looking very encouraging.”   Say's Mr Anderson, President CEO Ximen Mining Corp.
