RAB Drilling Program At Langara Zone Returns Highly Anomalous pXRF Results

VANCOUVER - Kingfisher Metals Corp. reported updates on rotary air blast (RAB) drilling at the 100% owned 511 km2 Goldrange Project. Goldrange is located approximately 25 km south of the town of Tatla Lake in the Chilcotin region of Southwest British Columbia.

Six RAB drill holes (399.28 m) have been completed at the Langara Zone, located in the eastern Cloud Drifter Trend. Portable X-Ray Fluorescence ("pXRF") analysis has delineated multi-element anomalism in all holes drilled from one pad to target a historical adit. Visual chip logs identified sulfide minerals and quartz veins typical of gold mineralization style observed on surface in all drill holes to date. GRR22-033 intercepted the historical Langara adit (1930s) at 9.14 m and visual chip logs identified geology typical of rocks from adit dump pile. Samples have been submitted for gold analysis at MSALABS' Chrysos PhotonAssayTM for analysis and check fire assays with initial results expected in the coming weeks.

Dustin Perry, CEO, said, "This first shallow drill test of the Langara Zone was successful at locating the historical adit that was obscured by talus cover. Additionally, drilling encountered highly anomalous pathfinder mineralization in areas of limited outcrop due to talus cover. Logging of RAB cuttings shows widespread quartz veins with associated sulfide minerals that is comparable to the high-grade Au-Ag veins at surface. Now that we have a better 3D understanding of this target, we can diamond drill this season. The diamond rig will test a much broader area of mineralization as well as potential feeder mineralization to these areas of surficial anomalism."

Kingfisher commenced the first-ever drill program at the Langara Zone  with a RAB drill rig in July 2022. The initial six holes were drilled from a single pad located adjacent to a historical adit from the 1930s. Drilling was completed to test the geometry of near surface mineralization including the talus obscured adit. The historical working is centered on an interference zone between northwest and east trending veins.
