News Release
Providence Gold Mines Discovers
Four - Meter Gouge Zone Along New Drill Access Road
Providence Gold Mines Inc (the “Company”)(TSXV: PHD) is pleased to announce an update on its road building
for its upcoming drill program. As previously reported, road construction was shut down due to a freak winter
storm. The snow is reported to be melting fast and once the conditions permit, we will continue the road to the
proposed drill drill sites. The excavator operator reported that prior to shut down, he went through two metres of
a silicified zone after which he encountered a 4-meter-wide gouge zone followed by a further two meters of
silicified rock. The Company believes that this gouge zone represents the surface expression of one of the
historical mineralized stopes. On the historical long section this stope was mined up to thirty meters from the
surface. In the early 20 th Century, it was common for miners to leave a crown pillar above mined stopes. The
Company is planning to trench and sample this zone.
The Company has commissioned a specialist to build a three-dimensional model of the historical, mined long
section using the3D laser imaging of the access adit, surface geology and geochemistry and surface and
underground sampling.
