Ximen Mining Corp. (TSX-V: XIM, Forum) announced this week that it had received approval for exploration drilling on the Providence Property near Greenwood in southeastern BC.
This Multi-Year Area Based permit approval for this year will allow four new drill sites. Multiple holes can be drilled from each of the sites, so the permit allows for approximately 1,600 meters to be drilled this year.
Drill holes planned for this year will follow-up on recent significant intercepts, located northeast of the historic Providence silver mine. The company received results for drill holes 2 and 3 on the property, including 147.25 grams per tonne silver over 1.0 meters in hole 20-02 (96.47 to 97.47 meters), and 94.9 grams per tonne silver over 0.83 meters in hole 20-03 (111.73 to 112.76 meters).
