KLONDEX MINES INFILL DRILLING EXTENDS JOYCE AND VONNIE VEINS AT FIRE CREEK

Klondex Mines Ltd. today provided an update on recent underground infill and exploration drilling from its Fire Creek gold project near Elko, Nev. A total of 17 drill holes were drilled to the east of the main decline from Muck Bay 6 and diamond drill stations 6 and 17.

Drilling east from MB6, designed to test the northern extension of the Vonnie vein, intersected the Vonnie structure in all five holes of the fan. The lower two holes successfully extended mineralization at depth from 42.7 metres (140 feet) to 96 metres (315 feet) below the current workings. The location of mineralization intersected in these holes is consistent with the known geometry of mineralization along the Vonnie vein. The upper three holes did not encounter mineralization above the cut-off grade of five grams per tonne (0.15 ounce per ton) gold.

Drilling east from DDS-17 continues to demonstrate continuity of mineralization along the Joyce vein. Drill intercepts on the Joyce vein extended mineralization north by 61 metres (200 feet) along strike of the current underground development and by 27 metres (90 feet) down dip and 46 metres (150 feet) up dip. FC-13-107U identified one new mineralized structure northeast of the Vonnie vein, continuing to support and demonstrate the potential for finding additional mineralization within the Fire Creek property. Drilling encountered the Vonnie structure but did not locate mineralization above the cut-off grades. Klondex will continue testing the northern extensions of the veins by extending the main decline to the northwest to establish additional drill platforms. Infill fan drilling from DDS6 extended the Joyce and the Vonnie vein mineralization slightly up dip and down dip. Additional fan drilling is currently under way in DDS6. Assays are pending.

Mike Doolin, Klondex general manager, stated: "Our drilling program continues to impress us as we have intersected several new areas of gold and silver mineralization. This continues to support our geologic model that there is a strong likelihood to encounter additional subparallel veins within the east and west zones. Our planned infill and exploration drill programs for 2014 will be expanded in all directions in an effort to increase the current known mineral resources at Fire Creek."
