About Kimber
Kimber owns mineral concessions covering in excess of 39,000 hectares in the prospective Sierra Madre gold-silver belt, including the Company's Monterde property, where three gold-silver deposits have already been identified. The most advanced of these, the Carmen deposit, has been extensively drilled and is currently undergoing detailed geologic modeling in order to evaluate the potential for a combined open pit and underground mining operation based on current resources. Further, reconnaissance exploration carried out in 2007 has identified a number of new exploration targets on Kimber's properties in the Sierra Madre. In addition, the Company has a 100% interest in the mineral concessions of its Pericones property, an 11,890 hectare property targeted for silver, located approximately 100 kilometres southwest of Mexico City.
