Kimber Resources Inc. (TSX:KBR,AMEX:KBX) provided an update on the work that is being done at the Carmen gold-silver deposit at its Mexico-based Monterde project, commenting that it has begun underground mapping and sampling.
As quoted in the press release:
The underground work program initiated at the Carmen deposit is aimed at providing more than 1,000 metres of underground access to high-grade gold-silver mineralized structures, including the Carmen and Hilos structures (see figures 2 and 3 below). The underground work will include detailed mapping and sampling within the historic mine workings that were originally developed in the 1940′s. Historic mining at Carmen occurred between 1937 and 1944. Reported high-grade gold-silver mining produced 68,000 tonnes at 19.3 grams per tonne gold and 311 grams per tonne silver. Production was halted in 1944 due to lack of supplies during World War II.
