About Kimber Kimber Resources Inc. holds a 100% interest in the
Monterde property in the Sierra Madre of northern Mexico. On the
Monterde property, The Company is advancing the Carmen gold-silver
deposit towards production. The Carmen deposit, an underground mine
in the 1930's, is a typical low sulphidation epithermal system,
oxidized, and believed to be suitable for open pit mining. Two
adjacent epithermal systems first identified in 2005, the Carotare
deposit and El Orito Norte exploration target appear to be similar
to the Carmen. The goal of the company is to demonstrate at least
three million resource ounces from the two deposits and exploration
target identified. For further information on the company visit
