Metallurgical Test Results
99% GOLD RECOVERY AT XIMEN MINING‘S
KENVILLE GOLD MINE PROJECT
IN SOUTHERN BC
According Ximen’s press-release:
“The Kenville material responded
exceptionally well to both gravity and
flotation. The combined gold recovery is
99%,..”
“The test work started with a sample
composited from the Kenville mineral-
ization. Material was sorted on the basis
of visible sulphide mineralization and
separate lots were assayed. Portions of
high-grade and low-grade material were
then combined to give a weight average
grade approaching the expected grade
of material to be mined from Kenville
0.5 ounce per ton gold (17.1 grams per
tonne) when the project proceeds to a
Bulk Sample. The resultant composite
assayed 16.27 grams per tonne gold
and 35.60 grams per tonne silver (0.475
ounce per ton gold, 1.0 ounce per ton
silver). The material was then subjected
to gravity gold recovery and flotation
testing aimed at approximating the pro-
cess at the target processing plant.”
Today, Ximen Mining Corp. announced the receipt of metallurgical test results
for its Kenville Gold Mine Project near the city of Nelson in southern British
Columbia, Canada.

Company Details
2. On March 20, 2020, Ximen provided
an“update on recent property acqui-
sitions and upcoming activities in the
Nelson and Greenwood mining camps
in southern British Columbia“, with
Chris Anderson (CEO & President) com-
menting as follows:
“Now that we have completed this part
of our acquisition plan, we will move
forward at Kenville as planned to start
mining. As early as next week we’ll have
boots on the ground, and the crew will
begin refurbishing the Kenville mine
portal before building the portal for
the new decline. As soon as this part is
finished, we can start cracking rock. The
most exciting time for Ximen Mining
starts right now!”
The following“2020 Work Programs“ at
Kenville are planned as per the March
20 news-release:
“At the Kenville Gold Mine, the Company
will start work imminently on refurbis-
hing the existing portal to the Kenville
mine which will be utilized as an egress
and ventilation for the new Portal. Once
that is complete, work can proceed on
starting the new decline following mi-
nistry final approval of the development
program.
“In light of the current market condi-
tions Ximen is actively pursuing op-
portunities and synergies to increase
its precious metals land holdings in
southern BC with the objective of being
able to build resources in the region. Wi-
th shareholder support, the input from
Ximen’s Financial advisors at Laurentian
Bank and the continued support from
the $8,000,000 credit facility that allows
Ximen to access capital when required
via private placements, has put the com-
pany in the fortunate position to take
advantage of opportunities resulting
from the current market environment.“
On May 15, Ximen announced plans for
the exploration season to begin in the
next weeks:
“The field season will begin in June and
we anticipate initiating drilling activities
immediately on the existing permitted
areas, we see a very busy season ahead.
2 Report #21 | Ximen Mining Corp.
Sources: Mining.com (2017) / The stated gold recoveries are sourced from company
reports (here, here, here, here, here) / Ximen’s gold recovery from initial metallurgical
test results and the stated gold grade as per Ximen’s news as of May 22, 2020: “Por-
tions of high-grade and low-grade material were then combined to give a weight
average grade approaching the expected grade of material to be mined from
Kenville 0.5 ounce per ton gold (17.1 grams per tonne) when the project proceeds
to a Bulk Sample.” (Dr. Mathew Ball, P.Geo., VP Exploration for Ximen Mining Corp.
and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, approved the technical information
contained in this News Release.) Cautionary Statements: It is noted that the results of
other gold mining projects (as presented in this table) are not necessarily indicative
of the potential of Ximen’s Kenville Gold Mine Project and should not be understood
or interpreted to mean that similar results will be obtained from the Kenville Project.
Note that the mineralogical and metallurgical qualities and indications of other gold
mining projects are not necessarily indicative of the qualities or potential of the
Kenville Gold Mine Project, and that such disclosure should not be relied upon by in-
vestors. Moreover, Ximen may decide to advance its Kenville Project into production
without first establishing mineral resources supported by an independent technical
report or completing a feasibility study. A production decision without the benefit of
a technical report independently establishing mineral resources or reserves and any
feasibility study demonstrating economic and technical viability creates increased
uncertainty and heightens economic and technical risks of failure. Historically, such
projects have a much higher risk of economic or technical failure. Please read the full
disclosure, forward-looking statements and risks at the end of this report.
