The Company reports that engineering design work is continuing at the mine site, with LiDAR surveying of the historic mine tunnels being done using a robotic dog. An initial site visit was also conducted by the consulting engineer for the required foundation investigation, and a further site assessment for the water retention plan by the design engineer was done.

"At Ximen, we are committed to bringing practical new technologies into the exploration and mine-development field, and the use of robotic LiDAR surveying at Kenville is a good example of that approach," stated Anderson, CEO of Ximen Mining Corp. "This technology allows our team and consultants to gather important underground data efficiently and safely as we continue preparing for the planned new decline. Kenville is a historic gold mine with modern potential, and we remain focused - like a dog with a bone - on advancing the project methodically, responsibly and with the benefit of the best tools available."
