Click For Larger Image Proposed Fire Creek Decline Overlaid With Identified Gold Vein Structures Klondex Mines filed permits (March 2007) to pursue underground exploration and to begin bulk sampling for metallurgical testing of up to 120,000 short tons of ore. The bulk sampling has the potential to generate substantial operating cash flow for Klondex. Permits are currently anticipated in Fall 2008. The map above is a revised plan for the exploration decline that is subject to change and regulatory approvals.

Klondex Mines (TSX: KDX; Other OTC: KLNDF) is engaged in acquiring, exploring and developing gold and silver properties in Nevada and has to date identified an Indicated Mineral Resource in excess of 1 million ounces of gold (and a comparable amount of silver) via its deep drilling program at its 100% owned Fire Creek Property.

Klondex is focused on the exploration and development of Fire Creek on the Northern Nevada Rift in North Central Nevada, an area of substantial mining activity which has produced in excess of 100 million ounces of gold. Highlighted by Fire Creek, Klondex's property portfolio contains five gold exploration projects covering over 12,615 acres or 19.7 square miles.

Fire Creek comprises 10,715 acres of Fee and Lease land along the Northern Nevada Rift in North Central Nevada. It is strategically located between the past producing Mule Canyon Mine to the north and the world-class Pipeline and Cortez gold deposits to the south. The property is readily accessible via Federal and state roads, is close to the electrical power grid and is within 50 miles driving distance of two large mills.

Fire Creek's Nevada location, high-grade gold and silver mineralization, and proximity to world-class mining infrastructure and personnel, make it a particularly compelling mining prospect. Read more...
