Kenville Gold Mine



Kenville Drilling

Permits for new underground and surface programs are current and drilling is underway on the Kenville Gold Mine property. At the present a 5,000 metre diamond drill hole program is in effect.

A significant number of diamond drill holes were established during the development of the mine. Only some of the records from the mid 1940s and the newer records exist. A lot of the records were lost or destroyed when the property footprints and ownership changed over the years.

Diamond drill programs (NQ core) were carried out by Teck Exploration Ltd in 1995 and 1996, and found several zones of quartz vein hosted-high grade gold mineralization and disseminated alteration-related copper (silver, molybdenum) mineralization.

In 2007, holes were drilled to test for a potential copper-gold porphyry target. Although economic porphyry type mineralization was not observed during this drill program, high grade gold and silver bearing quartz veins were intercepted in the last two drill holes.

In 2008 Anglo Swiss carried out a more extensive drill program encompassing a much larger area of the Kenville property. Thia program tested both geochemical and IP targets and was successful in better defining the Eagle vein system.

Throughout our2008 diamond drilling program, numerous sporadic intersections of locally high-grade copper (+/- anomalous silver, gold) mineralization were noted through most of the drill holes.

A new 3D mapping program has provided the framework for a full model. All of the historical and current drill data will place the holes and populate the traces with structural and grade data dating back to the 1940s


The winter 2009/2010 drill program produced 33 gold intercepts from 19 surface and 5 underground drill holes that exceeded 4.0 grams per tonne with a minimum apparent width of 0.5 meter. Management is very pleased of the discovery of additional high grade gold bearing quartz veins striking over distances of 100 to several hundred meters beyond the known Kenville Gold Mine’s historical footprint.  Recent drill intersections have also intersected new high grade vein structure at depths below the original production levels of the Kenville Gold Mine.  These discoveries confirm the potential for new gold resources (with silver and copper enrichment), within this historic gold mining camp.
