Ximen acquires 100% interest in the Gold Drop Property located in the Greenwood Gold District BC Canada

Vancouver, B.C. - (October 25, 2013 - TSX-V: XIM) Ximen Mining Corp. (the "Company" or Ximen) is pleased to announce that it has signed a Letter of Intent with 0979475 BC Ltd., a

company owned by Al Beaton, to acquire a 100% interest in the Gold Drop Property located about 9 kilometers northeast from downtown Greenwood, BC in the Greenwood Gold Mining district. The property hosts dozens of surface and near surface gold-bearing quartz veins from which several thousand tonnes of ore was mined as recently the 1980s. All mining to date has been small scale high grade. Modern geology techniques have not yet been applied to the property Highlights: The property has seen high grade gold production as recent as the 1980s Located in a known gold producing district and located adjacent to several past producing mines Multiple gold bearing quartz veins at surface and underground 100s of meters of underground workings on the property Close proximity to Kinrosss state of the art Kettle River Operations (Buckhorn mine) mill Excellent infrastructure and access Notice of Work permit application is submitted for surface and undersurface bulk sample Notice of Work permit application is also submitted for over 3,000 meters of drilling and trenching The land package that has been assembled is approximately 5 km by 5 km and comprised of 13 claims and 2 crown grants that cover an area of approximately 1250 hectares. It is located in close proximity to several mills, of particular interest Kinross Kettle River Operations mill. It is understood that the 2,000 tonne/day mill is currently operating at about half capacity and is looking for additional feed. The mill is a modern carbon-in-leach cyanide gold mill. At present, mill feed is from the Buckhorn underground gold skarn mine, 75 km by road from the mill. The Buckhorn mine has an estimated two year mine life. The Gold Drop property contains dozens of known gold bearing quartz veins currently exposed at surface and in the underground workings. There are over 200 meters of historic underground

workings on the property, but only very limited modern diamond drilling has been done. Due to the fractional ownership prior to the assembly, no modern geological techniques have been applied to the property. The historic approach was to mine high grade portions of the known veins. These historic operations were targeting material as high as 4 oz per ton gold. Ximens approach will be to do a systematic geological approach to exploring the property, while targeting bulk sample potential. This is reflected in the recent Notice of Work that has been submitted to the Ministry of Energy and Mines by the vendors company, AJ Beaton Mining. Recent work performed over the summer included exploration work on the North Star workings where there was previously 6,178 tonnes mined at an average grade of 3.84 g/t and 76.93 g/t Ag. Some of the summer work included re-sampling of the Winze vein located in the North Star workings. Ten underground rock samples on various accessible areas of the vein were taken where access was possible. Samples were analyzed at ALS Minerals in North Vancouver using 35 Element Aqua Regia ICP-AES, with ore grade assays done for overlimit silver values. Gold analyses were by Fire Assay/AA finish on a 30 gram sample. The Winze vein assays received mid October were as high as 80 g/t gold. A summary of the samples are listed in the table below. Linda Caron, an independent geologist for the company took the samples. Samples were representative chip samples, taken across the true width of the vein. Sample results are listed in the table below. Sample Au ppm (grams per tonne) Ag ppm tonne) (grams per Sample Width (cm)

The company Ximen has retained the services of Linda Caron M.Sc., P.Eng to complete an independent NI 43-101 technical report on the Gold Drop property. Linda Caron M.Sc. P. Eng This provides an excellent opportunity to do a proper and systematic approach to the geology on this property which has never been done as it has always been targeted for high grade gold mining. The recent samples taken on the Winze vein show we have a strong gold bearing system.

News Release

Linda graduated from the University of British Columbia in 1985 with an Honours degree in Geological Engineering (Mineral Exploration Option), and went on to obtain a Masters degree in Geological Sciences from the University of Calgary in 1988.

Since 1997, she has worked as a self-employed consulting geologist and QP, providing field work, managerial, reporting and permitting services to clients. Lindas experience has covered a range of deposit styles and geological settings in various jurisdictions. She has worked extensively in the Boundary District of southern British Columbia and northern Washington and is widely recognized for her knowledge of the geology and deposits in the area. About the Vendor Al Beaton Al Beaton, This is one of the only properties in the district that has not been addressed with proper geology as it has been unavailable. Now that it has been consolidated, it provides an excellent opportunity for some micro mining while the company takes a systematic geological approach to evaluating the propertys full potential. Mr. Beaton has been actively involved in mining operations for over 40 years. Since becoming a member of the Association of Professional Engineers & Geoscientists of BC in 1974, he has over 30 years of experience as mine manager for mining and development operations throughout Africa and across Canada.
