Idaho North Resources and Coeur Mining Announce the Start of Drilling at the Klondyke Property, Esmeralda County, Nevada

COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho--()--Idaho North Resources (OTC:IDAH) (“IDAH” or the “Company”) in conjunction with Coeur Mining, Inc. (NYSE:CDE, “Coeur”) today announced the beginning of a drill campaign at the Klondyke property in Esmeralda County, Nevada. Coeur Mining and Idaho North will immediately commence a drill program of 22 reverse circulation drill holes with an aggregate footage of 6000 feet (2000 meters).

The Company has an Exploration Program Agreement with Coeur Mining under which Coeur will fund, and have exclusive earn-in rights to certain Company properties such as the Klondyke claims. (For more details, please see the IDAH press release dated October 2, 2014 at www.idahonorthresources.com.)

The Klondyke property is located approximately 10 miles south of the historic silver district of Tonopah, Nevada within the prolific Walker Lane Structural Zone.

The northern portion of the Klondyke District, much like the region surrounding it, is characterized by exposures of Tertiary volcanic and sedimentary rocks hosting low-sulfidation, epithermal gold-silver mineralization. Target models include the Midas, Midway, Goldfields, Tonopah, Hasbrouck, Three Hills, and Round Mountain type systems.

In the central portion of the Klondyke District, silver-base metal mineralization is hosted in Cambrian and Paleozoic carbonate rocks intruded by various intrusive stocks, dikes, and sills. Mineralization target models in this part of the district include mesothermal quartz veins, supergene silver bodies, and possible much larger, concealed gold-silver-copper-lead porphyry systems.
