Brian Morris, vice president exploration at Klondex, commented:

The results from our December 2015 surface drilling program are very encouraging. We have gained an increased understanding of the vein system at Fire Creek based on the positive results from this phase of surface drilling. At Midas, not only do we continue to extend the mineralized footprint in the Trinity zone but the data suggests that the contact between the breccia and the overlying Esmeralda sediments is an important control for the high-grade mineralization within the Trinity gold system
