West Kirkland Mining Inc. announced a number of significant surface gold and silver assay values on newly acquired 100% controlled mining claims near Tonopah, Nevada. Recently received surface sampling results support historically reported good gold grades and silver veins of interest. The results also outline several targets at surface to be defined for new bulk oxide, open pit gold and silver mineralization. Further assay results from a trenching program are pending and this will shortly be followed by a ten-hole drill program. These new positive results include the Divide target which hosts broad zones of exposed mineralization and has no record of exploration since shafts were sunk there in the 1920's and the Southerland target which also has no record of previous drilling.
