XIMEN MINING ADDS EXPERTISE TO ITS TECHNICAL TEAM

Peter Cooper, licensed geologist, has agreed to provide geological consulting services to Ximen Mining Corp. Mr. Cooper has over 40 years experience in the mineral exploration and mining business, working primarily for major producers in North America. He has been involved in three successful new gold mine start-ups and has overseen projects from the exploration stage right up to production.

Starting in 2007, Mr. Cooper was chief geologist and then manager of operations strategy for Kinross Gold’s Kettle River operations. Prior to this Mr. Cooper spent the better part of 20 years working in the Republic gold district of Washington State. Mr. Cooper’s knowledge of the area and of the precious metals deposits specific to the Republic Graben will be of great benefit to Ximen, as the company works in concert with its joint venture partner GGX Gold Corp. to advance and develop the diamond drilling program which is currently under way on the newly discovered COD and Everest veins, located on the far west side of the Gold Drop project in Greenwood, B.C.

Mr. Cooper played a significant role in the exploration, preproduction and development of Kinross’s Buckhorn gold mine located in north-central Washington State, close to the Canadian border. The Buckhorn mine is just due south from Greenwood, B.C., where Ximen’s Gold Drop project is situated. The Buckhorn mine and its associated Kettle River mill are currently on care and maintenance as Kinross searches for replacement feedstock.

Christopher Anderson, president and chief executive officer of Ximen, commented, “Ximen is extremely fortunate to have a geologist of Peter’s calibre join our team as we move forward with the exploration and development of the company’s assets.”
