QUARTERLY ACTIVTIES REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDING 30 SEPTEMBER 2021

  • RC drill testing of seven priority targets at Boolaloo, Kingfisher and Mick Well is underway.

  • Helicopter-borne electromagnetic survey at Kingfisher and Mick Well projects identified five new bedrock conductors which were within the range of possible responses expected for volcanogenic massive sulphide base metal mineralisation.

  • Three new discrete bedrock conductors identified from the airborne electromagnetic survey at Boolaloo including a conductor which highlighted potential strike extensions of the Erny Bore Prospect.

  • Rock chip sampling program at Boolaloo identified three new areas of mineralisation, including the new Green Hills Prospect, and returned highgrade assays with results up to 37.8% copper and 5.74g/t gold.

  • Assay results received for Boolaloo maiden diamond drilling program, with up to 2.68% Cu and 0.49g/t Au over 0.85m, within a broader zone of 10.05m at 0.84% Cu and 0.11 g/t Au at Copper Strike.

Kingfisher Mining Limited ( ASX:KFM ) (“ Kingfisher ” or the “ Company” ) is pleased to provide an update on its activities during the September 2021 Quarter.

Commenting on the Company’s activities during the Quarter, Kingfisher’s Executive Director and CEO James Farrell said: “During the Quarter, the Company consolidated the numerous exploration activities undertaken over the past 12 months with the return of assays, maiden drill results, hyperspectral survey results and airborne geophysics leading to the identification of new mineralisation and producing numerous new targets. This work has enabled the Company to plan and commence a comprehensive and focused drill program across its projects.

Assays received from the maiden diamond drill program and from the on-going rock chip sampling and surface mapping at Boolaloo resulted in the discovery of three new occurrences of high-grade mineralisation, including the new Green Hills Prospect. The results from the regional-scale airborne electromagnetic surveys at the Company’s Ashburton and Gascoyne projects were also received and produced nine exciting bedrock conductors.

The Company has now defined seven priority targets at Boolaloo, Mick Well and Kingfisher and commenced an RC drilling program to test these targets. The drilling is scheduled to be completed towards the end of October, with assay results likely to become available late in the December Quarter.

Exploration work at the Company’s projects will continue at a fast pace in Quarter 4, with surface mapping and sampling planned for newly identified and high-priority areas at Boolaloo as well as geochemical sampling targeting rare earth elements associated with mapped pegmatite dykes in the Gascoyne region.”

COMPANY PROJECTS

Kingfisher has four wholly owned projects in Western Australia. The Company’s flagship Boolaloo Project located in the Ashburton Mineral Field, approximately 35km from the Paulsens gold mine, which has a number of exciting copper and gold exploration targets. The Kingfisher, Mick Well and Arthur River Projects located in the Gascoyne region and are prospective for volcanogenic massive sulphide style mineralisation, with copper mineralisation at Kingfisher exposed in a series of shallow historical exploration pits over a strike length of over 2km.

All of the projects have limited historical exploration which has identified numerous zones of mineralisation. The Company has further identified a number of high-quality targets and has added to its portfolio by acquiring additional tenure. The tenure now covers significant strike extents of the target mineralised structures within these emerging regions, covering in excess of 50km in the Gascoyne Mineral Field and 30km in the Ashburton Basin.

BOOLALOO PROJECT

The Boolaloo copper-gold and base metal project is located approximately 160km west of Paraburdoo and 35km southwest of the Paulsen's gold mine in the Ashburton region of Western Australia (Figure 1). The Company has pegged exploration licences over the potential strike extents of the interpreted mineralised structures, giving a significant strategic holding in an emerging province and tenure which now covers more than 30km of strike of the interpreted mineralised structures.

==> picture [596 x 109] intentionally omitted <==

Past exploration has established the potential for the discovery of copper mineralisation at the project, with previous reverse circulation (RC) and recent diamond drilling returning very encouraging results which include:

  • 4m @ 1.06% Cu & 1.40 g/t Au from 109m, including 1m @ 1.41% Cu & 2.70 g/t Au from 110m (MIRC002)[ 1] ;

  • 3m @ 1.83% Cu & 1.12 g/t Au from 96m, including 1m @ 3.14% Cu & 1.38 g/t Au from 96m (MIRC004)[ 1] ;

  • 2m @ 1.44% Cu & 1.36 g/t Au from 137m, including 1m @ 2.28% Cu & 2.28 g/t Au from 138m (MIRC009)[ 1] ;

  • 3m @ 3.05% Cu & 0.57 g/t Au from 63m, including 2m @ 3.90% Cu & 0.77 g/t Au from 63m (MIRC013)[1] ; and

  • 2m @ 3.81% Cu & 0.62 g/t Au from 62m (MIRC027)[2] .

  • 10.05m at 0.84% Cu and 0.11 g/t Au from 23.15m, including 2.7m at 1.45% Cu and 0.14 g/t Au from 23.15m and 0.85m at 2.68% Cu and 0.49 g/t Au from 32.35m (BLDD003).

Past exploration has also established significant mineralisation strike lengths at K15 and K16, with the K16 mineralised zone being intersected over a strike length of 1.5km.

Regional Mapping and Rock Chip Sampling

During the Quarter, Kingfisher announced it had received high-grade copper and gold results from its ongoing extensive regional mapping and rock chip sampling program at Boolaloo (see ASX announcements 5 July 2021 and 9 September 2021). The program is targeting copper and gold mineralisation within laterally extensive alteration corridors identified by the Company during Q1 2021 (see ASX announcement 17 February 2021). The work has also been designed to assist the Company to build its understanding of the regional geology and mineralisation potential within this emerging copper province.

Significant rock chip sample results received in the quarter are listed below.

New mineralisation discovery: Green Hills Prospect (photographs 1 and 2):

  • BLGS0233: 2.32% Cu and 0.04 g/t Au

  • BLGS0240: 24.30% Cu and 0.59 g/t Au

  • BLGS0241: 5.84% Cu and 1.23 g/t Au

  • BLGS0247: 4.90% Cu and 0.29 g/t Au

Other new mineralisation discoveries (photographs 3 and 4):

Boolaloo Airborne Electromagnetic Survey

During the Quarter, Kingfisher received the data from a helicopter-borne Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM[TM] Max) geophysical survey from Boolaloo (see ASX announcement 21 July 2021).

The VTEM[TM] Max survey was flown by UTS Geophysics Pty Ltd using the industry leading time domain electromagnetic system. The survey covered more than 20km of strike of the Company’s target geological unit and structures. The survey included more than 900 flight line kilometres and covered an area of 165km[2] . Data was reviewed in conjunction with the Company’s geophysics consultant, Mira Geoscience Asia Pacific Pty Ltd (Mira).

Three discrete late-time bedrock conductors were identified in the area covered by the survey (Figure 3). The conductors are present across all of the electromagnetic channels; early, mid and late times. The conductors are within the range of response expected for copper and other base metal mineralisation and highlights the potential for the discovery of a deposit in this emerging copper province.

Two of the newly identified conductors are in the area covered by the hyperspectral survey and are associated with previously identified laterally extensive alteration of the country rocks (see ASX announcement 17 February 2021). The strong conductor (Figure 3, B) appears in a faulted closure of a largescale fold; this geological location is considered favourable for mineralisation.

Boolaloo RC Drilling

During the Quarter, an RC drilling program commenced at Boolaloo, which has been designed to test three separate targets, Erny Bore, Green Hills and EM1.

The Erny Bore Prospect appears as a series of shears and quartz veins and outcrops over a strike length of 150m. The prospect has been defined by historic rocks chip samples which include 8.06, 2.10, 1.81 and 1.21 g/t Au[3] and is associated with a strong conductor, which lies approximately 100m along strike from the rock chip samples. The historic rock chips, together with the strong conductor and interpreted preliminary VTEM[TM] Max survey results suggest a potential target zone of over 1km at Erny Bore.

The Green Hills Prospect was identified as a potential target from the reprocessing of the hyperspectral survey and the Company’s structural interpretation, with first pass mapping and sampling in the area returning rock chip sample results with over 24% copper and more than 1 g/t gold.

The third target to be tested in the current Boolaloo RC drilling program is EM1, a bedrock conductor identified from the airborne EM survey which is approximately 3km west of Erny Bore and on the interpreted extensions of the Erny Bore structure (Figure 4).

Boolaloo Diamond Drilling

Assay results from the maiden diamond drilling completed in June 2021 at the Copper Strike, K15 and K16 Prospects were received by the Company during the quarter. The results included:

  • 10.05m at 0.84% Cu and 0.11 g/t Au from 23.15m, including 2.7m at 1.45% Cu and 0.14 g/t Au from 23.15m and 0.85m at 2.68% Cu and 0.49 g/t Au from 32.35m (BLDD003);

  • 0.5m at 1.54% Cu and 0.10 g/t Au from 38.7m (BLDD003);

  • 0.9m at 0.41% Cu and 0.03 g/t Au from 95.2m (BLDD003); and

  • 0.7m at 1.73% Cu and 0.08 g/t Au from 78.75m (BLDD001).

The broad zone of 10m of disseminated copper sulphides is interpreted to be down-dip of previously identified disseminated malachite and chalcopyrite in the historic drill hole MIRC027 from 5m to 11m and 13m to 31m which was not analysed for copper and gold content.

Location plans and cross sections for the diamond drill hole at the Copper Strike and K15 Prospects are shown in Figure 5 to Figure 8. All of the drill holes intersected disseminated, vein and fracture-fill copper mineralisation, with mineralisation intersected in BLDD001 and BLDD003 above the Company’s reporting cut-off grade of 0.2% Cu.

KINGFISHER AND MICK WELL PROJECTS

The Kingfisher and Mick Well Projects are located approximately 230km east of Carnarvon, in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia (Figure 9). The Projects lie within the Halfway Gneiss, an exotic block of Archean geology where the Company holds a strike length of over 50km of the target geological horizon. Similar aged Archean rocks are recognised world-wide for occurrences of VMS systems and as a source of base metal deposits which are currently being mined.

Copper mineralisation at the Kingfisher Project is exposed in a series of shallow historical mining pits over a strike length of 2km. Previous exploration at the project has included geophysical surveys, surface geochemical sampling and limited reverse circulation drilling, with drilling intercepts including 3m @ 0.6% Cu (KFRC10) and rock chip results of 15.3% Cu, 6.3% Cu, 6.2% Cu, 5.9% Cu and 3.4% Cu[1] .

Mineralisation at Mick Well outcrops as quartz reefs and gossanous ironstones which are up to 10m in width. Past exploration in the area is limited, with previous rock chip sampling showing results up to 10.6% Cu over a strike length of 1km within a laterally extensive geological horizon. Only four historical drill holes have been completed at Mick Well, with the best result being 11m @ 0.25% Cu from 118 m (MWDD001)[1] .

Kingfisher and Mick Well Airborne Electromagnetic Survey

During the Quarter, Kingfisher announced it has received preliminary data from a VTEM[TM] Max geophysical survey from Kingfisher and Mick Well. The survey was flown by UTS Geophysics Pty Ltd and covered more than 25km of strike of the Company’s target geological unit and structures at Kingfisher and Mick Well and included more than 820 flight line kilometres and covered an area of 145km[2] .

Five high-quality targets were identified from the strong conductors which were apparent in the survey results (Figure 10). Each of the bedrock conductors is within the range of possible responses expected for VMS base metal mineralisation and is derived from geology in the immediate area of the anomaly.

Kingfisher and Mick Well RC Drilling

Drilling of the VMS targets at the Kingfisher and Mick Well Projects commenced during the Quarter. The program includes four strong conductors identified from the airborne electromagnetic survey and include conductor 1 (Figure 10), where a three-dimensional plate was modelled which captures the strike, dip and position of the conductor below the surface. Conductors two and three were also selected for drill testing as they are associated with discrete magnetic lows, which provide further support for the veracity of the targets. Lastly, the fourth target (conductor 5, Figure 10) was selected for drilling as it lies immediately along strike from outcropping copper mineralisation and historic workings at the Kingfisher Project.

On-going Exploration Work Program

The Company has planned the following exploration activities for the December 2021 Quarter:

  • RC drilling: Completion of the RC drilling program which is underway testing the high-priority targets from the airborne electromagnetic surveys. This includes Erny Bore at Boolaloo and conductors at the Mick Well and Kingfisher Projects in the Gascoyne Mineral Field.

  • Fieldwork: Mapping and rock chip sampling will be on-going at Boolaloo during Q4 2021. The fieldwork at Boolaloo has already returned high-grade copper and gold rock chip results and new high-priority areas will be targeted during the Quarter. At Kingfisher, Mick Well and Arthur River surface geochemical sampling will also be extended to target rare earth elements (REE) associated with mapped pegmatite dykes.

Activities completed Q1, Q2 and Q3 2021 and planned activities for Q4 2021 are shown below.
