THE DEADWOOD MINE

The Deadwood is a Patent Claim that has a history of excellent production.

This mine was shut down during World War II and was never really re-activated.

Two major gold bearing veins run the length of the Deadwood claims for approximately 3000 feet.

The mine has been partially developed to a depth of 600 feet.

Historical testing by ASARCO (a large mining company) blocked out substantial reserves of gold and silver between the 600 foot level and the surface based on the evaluation of only the existing tunnel system. The gold bearing system is open at the ends and at depth with proven economic gold and silver on the same structure to the 1,100 foot level on a neighboring claim.

As the testing protocol for ASARCO is known Micrex intends to send a Certified Geologist into the Deadwood to duplicate and expand on the earlier work done by ASARCO. Basically this will entail testing the mine so that ore can be blocked out between the already developed levels.

The data gathered by the geologist will be addressed using today’s mining methods and economics.

Given suitable results drilling will be used to expand the data base along the entire length of the claim and at depth.

A qualified Mining consultant will evaluate the existing workings and make recommendations as to the best mining approach within the existing area of development.

Micrex has entered into a joint venture agreement for exploration and development of the Sunburst and Deadwood claims. See the Recent Developments section of the Sunburst property for more information.
