Robotic dog being used to survey mine excavations at Kenville gold mine. “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. 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.” He explained that the current work is preparing for construction of the new underground decline to start. “The new decline will provide access to multiple gold-bearing quartz veins indicated by previous surface drilling around the historic Kenville gold mine,” said Anderson.
