Kingfisher Metals – Drills Are Turning at The HYW 37 Project – Kicking Off This 15,000 Metre Drill Program Testing Multiple Copper-Gold Targets

Episode 3481 Published 2 weeks, 6 days ago
Description

Dustin Perry, Founder and CEO of Kingfisher Metals Corp. (TSXV:KFR) (OTCQB:KGFMF) (FSE:970), joins me to highlight the commencement of their fully-funded 15,000 metre drill program; in a three-pronged approach to various copper-gold targets in the Hank-Mary district of the Hwy 37 Project, in the Golden Triangle, British Columbia.

 

2026 Drill Program Update

 

The first diamond drill has re-entered the 2025 Hank Porphyry discovery hole (HW-25-011) with the goal of extending mineralization beyond the previously reported intercept of 425 m of 0.15% Cu, 0.21 g/t Au, and 2.2 g/t Ag (0.40% CuEq).1,2,3 The original intercept bottoms in increasing Cu grades at 959 m depth where potassic alteration is identified and becoming more prevalent. The second drill will collar in the Hank Porphyry Target area, stepping out over 300 metres, and complementing the first drill.  The 3rd drill is set to arrive to site in early July and drill pads are being planned and set up.

 

2026 Field Program Underway

 

Reconnaissance prospecting and regional stream sediment sampling are also scheduled to begin shortly across the HWY 37 Project, with geological mapping and soil sampling scheduled to begin during the second week of July. Ground IP geophysics and the airborne Mobile Magnetotelluric (MMT) and magnetic surveys remain on track to commence around mid-July.

 

Hank Porphyry Cu-Au Discovery – Expansion and Delineation

The Hank porphyry Cu-Au discovery represents a well-defined, large-scale copper-gold target supported by multiple converging lines of geological and geophysical evidence:

 

  • Kilometre-scale geophysical anomalies: IP geophysics, magnetics, and magnetotellurics (MMT) anomalies all converging on the same broad target.
  • Compelling emplacement timing: Porphyry mineralization at Hank, Williams & Mary (~190–186 Ma) overlaps in time with the nearby Mitchell deposit (~196–189 Ma)⁴  the largest undeveloped Cu-Au deposit in Canada.

 

Hank Au Targets – Bulk Tonnage Gold Targets

 

At-surface bulk-tonnage gold targets proximal to the Hank Porphyry Target offer significant opportunities for expansion with untested wide-spaced gaps (up to 500 m) between historical drill holes despite evidence of strong gold endowment in historical drilling. 

  • Historical results include:
    • 55.8 m of 1.38 g/t Au (DDH84-4)
    • 42.0 m of 2.52 g/t Au (DDH85-32)
    • 63.0 m of 1.86 g/t Au (DDH85-45)
  • Several historical holes terminate in mineralization including DDH88-16 with 74 m of 0.43 g/t Au including 0.92 g/t in the last assay.

 

Structural High-Grade Au Targets

 

Updated LiDAR, geological interpretation, and 3D modelling are being used to identify higher-grade structural gold zones. Previous workers explored with a single NW-SE azimuth to drill holes, this created a strong bias on ore geometry. New interpretations indicate multiple and complex structural patterns would have been poorly tested by previous holes. Revised interpretations will test projections of identified structures and ore shoot concepts as well.

 

New Discovery Drilling – Turquoise, Rainbow, & Regional Porphyry Targets

 

Beyond the Hank Porphyry Target, the Company will conduct first-pass discovery drilling at the Turquoise and Rainbow targets, along with additional regional prospects. This initiative is focused on identifying large-tonnage porphyry systems across the full breadth of the Company’s multi-district-scale land package — providing multiple opportunities for new discovery.
