In addition to an active surface exploration program at Fire Creek, in April 2011 Klondex initiated an underground exploration and development program through an underground decline. The program is designed to enable more cost effective in-fill drilling of its existing resource from underground stations as well as to enable bulk sampling for metallurgical testing of up to 120,000 short tons of material (limited to 36,500 short tons per year).

As of December 31, 2011, Klondex had 46.4 million shares issued and outstanding and 59.1 million shares on a diluted basis.
