QUARTERLY ACTIVTIES REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDING 31 MARCH 2021
-
500m maiden diamond drilling program commenced at Boolaloo subsequent to the Quarter to assess mineralisation, alteration and host rock stratigraphy which will bolster RC drilling program planned for later this year.
-
Reprocessing of the airborne hyperspectral survey data from Kingfisher’s Boolaloo Project is complete with new imagery revealing laterally extensive zones of hydrothermal alteration. The alteration is spatially associated with the known mineralisation and is strongly correlated with high grade and anomalous copper rock chip results.
-
High-resolution airborne EM surveys to commence for Boolaloo, Kingfisher and Mick Well and are scheduled to commence in the June Quarter. The surveys are expected to deliver results which will significantly assist the Company in its exploration efforts for copper sulphide mineralisation.
-
Additional tenements at Mick Well and Arthur River which cover the Company’s interpreted target horizon for copper mineralisation at its Gascoyne projects have been applied for, increasing the Company’s tenure from 1,138km[2] to 1,375 km[2] .
Kingfisher Mining Limited ( ASX:KFM ) (“ Kingfisher ” or the “ Company” ) is pleased to provide an update on its activities during the March 2021 Quarter.
Commenting on the Company’s activities during the Quarter, Kingfisher’s Executive Director and CEO James Farrell said: “The Company has been very busy during the March Quarter, hitting the ground running with exploration work at all of its projects. We have undertaken reviews of all of the past geophysical data and have been on the ground at all of our projects in the Ashburton and Gascoyne preparing for the up-coming airborne electromagnetic surveys and drilling programs which form a major component of our exploration activities this year.
Frustratingly, we had to delay the planned diamond drilling at our flagship Boolaoo due to excessive rain with the last being in the wake of Cyclone Seroja. Access to Boolaloo has been now restored and we are relieved and excited that the planned diamond drilling is underway.
Towards the end of the Quarter, we will be flying a high-resolution helicopter-borne electromagnetic survey at the Boolaloo, Kingfisher and Mick Well Projects. The survey is substantial, and will cover 1,500 line kilometres and will be a key part of the design of our drilling programs planned for later in the year.”
Company Projects
Kingfisher has four wholly owned projects in Western Australia. The Company’s flagship Boolaloo Project is located in the Ashburton Mineral Field, approximately 35km from the Paulsens gold mine, and has a number of exciting copper and gold exploration targets. The Kingfisher, Mick Well and Arthur River Projects are 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 mining pits over a strike length of 2km.

All of the projects have been subject to limited historic exploration which has identified numerous mineralisation zones. The Company has identified a significant quantity of high-quality targets and has recently continued to add to its portfolio by acquiring additional tenure that covers the strike extents of the target mineralised structures.
Boolaloo Project
Kingfisher’s 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).
Past exploration at the project included geological mapping, surface geochemistry, geophysical surveys and reverse circulation (RC) drilling. This produced 22 mineralised targets, with only six of the targets tested by previous drilling. 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.
Mineralisation at Boolaloo occurs on east-west trending faults. The Company has pegged exploration licences over the potential strike extents of the interpreted mineralised structures. The Company’s tenure now covers more than 30km of strike of the interpreted mineralised structures; approximately three times the strike length of the previous Boolaloo exploration area (Figure 2).
Diamond Drilling Program
During the Quarter, Kingfisher finalised its plans for a 500m maiden diamond drilling program at the Boolaloo Project which has now commenced. The diamond drilling has been designed to follow-up previous reverse circulation (RC) drill intercepts at the K15, K16 and Copper Strike Prospects
The purpose of the drilling is to assess the mineralisation, alteration and host rock stratigraphy which will assist the Company with designing a 5,000m RC drilling program planned for Boolaloo later in the year. The diamond drilling will also provide samples for petrophysical analysis which will be used to improve the interpretation of the geophysical surveys.
Significant historic drill results close to the up-coming diamond drilling 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) and 2m @ 1.44% Cu & 1.36 g/t Au from 137m, including 1m @ 2.28% Cu & 2.28 g/t Au from 138m (MIRC009);
-
3m @ 3.05% Cu & 0.57 g/t Au, including 2m @ 3.90% Cu & 0.77 g/t Au from 63m (MIRC013); and
-
2m @ 3.81% Cu & 0.62 g/t Au from 62m (MIRC027).
Location plans and cross-sections for the planned drilling at the K15, K16 and Copper Strike Prospects are shown in Figure 3 to Figure 7.

Hyperspectral Survey Reprocessing
During the Quarter, Kingfisher engaged Western Geospectral to reprocess data from a 2007 airborne hyperspectral survey covering a large part of the Boolaloo Project area. The survey consisted of four lines totalling 65.2 line kilometres. The survey utilised HyMap airborne hyperspectral scanner imagery, delivering 126 bands over the 450nm to 2500nm spectral interval.
Reprocessing involved spectral unmixing, noise reduction through the use of matched filters and the use of spectral indices to extract geological information from absorption feature depths and feature wavelengths. A total of 58 new images were produced over the surveyed area that can be used to map the surface mineralogy and discriminate various lithologies and alteration.
Interpretation of the reprocessed hyperspectral imagery by Western Geospectral and Kingfisher has focussed on the alteration minerals around the known mineralisation, and in particular, the white mica, chlorite and iron oxide minerals.
The interpretation of the alteration has highlighted numerous laterally extensive zones of hydrothermal alteration that extend across the entire survey area, with some alteration zones over 10km in length (Figure 8). The alteration is also associated with outcropping copper and gold mineralisation that has previously been sampled by rock chipping at all of the current Boolaloo prospects and drill targets.

Kingfisher Project
The Kingfisher Project is located approximately 235km east of Carnarvon, in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia (Figure 9). The area is prospective for volcanogenic massive sulphide style mineralisation and copper mineralisation is exposed in a series of shallow historical mining pits over a strike length of 2km.
Previous exploration at the Kingfisher Project has included geophysical surveys, surface geochemical sampling and limited reverse circulation drilling, with significant 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.
Mick Well Project
The Mick Well Project is located approximately 290km via road east of Carnarvon in the Gascoyne Mineral Field.
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 zone. Only four drill holes have been completed at Mick Well, with the best result being 11m @ 0.25% Cu from 118 m (MWDD001).

geology of the area dominantly consists of quartzites, mafic amphibolites, ferruginous cherts, marbles and pegmatites.
Copper anomalism and historic workings are widespread through the project area, with historic rock chip samples returning results of up to 6.6% Cu.
Geophysical Data Reprocessing
A geophysical consultant was engaged by Kingfisher during the Quarter to review and reprocess the historic geophysical data for the Boolaloo, Kingfisher and Mick Well projects.
The historic helicopter electromagnetic (EM) survey from Boolaloo as well as existing regional TEMPEST airborne EM surveys for Boolaloo, Kingfisher and Mick Well were reviewed during the Quarter. The reviews were completed as part of the preparation for upcoming high-resolution airborne EM surveys which have been contracted for Boolaloo, Kingfisher and Mick Well and are now scheduled for completion in the June Quarter 2021.
Data from an historic airborne magnetics survey which covers Kingfisher and Mick Well was also reprocessed and new images of the data generated during the Quarter (Figure 10). Interpretation of the reprocessed magnetics data was also completed, with several discrete magnetic anomalies identified for follow-up field work, ground geophysics and drilling later in the year.

On-going Exploration Work Program
The Company has planned the following exploration activities for the June 2021 Quarter:
-
Exploration diamond drilling: A 500m of diamond drilling to follow-up previous RC drill intercepts at the K15, K16 and Copper Strike Prospects at Boolaloo commenced subsequent to the end of the Quarter. The purpose of the drilling is to assess the mineralisation, alteration and host rock stratigraphy. This information will assist the Company with a 5,000m RC drilling program planned for Boolaloo later in the year. The diamond drilling will also provide samples for petrophysical analysis which will be used in to improve the interpretation of the geophysical surveys.
-
Fieldwork: Fieldwork commenced at Boolaloo subsequent to the end of the Quarter, with first-pass mapping and rock chip sampling completed in the alteration zones identified from the hyperspectral survey reprocessing (see announcement ASX:KFM 17 February 2021). The fieldwork has the potential to lead directly to new drill targets, adding to the current exciting targets at Boolaloo that are yet to be drill tested.
-
Airborne electromagnetic survey (EM): Airborne EM surveys have been contracted to commence at Boolaloo, Kingfisher and Mick Well in the June 2021 Quarter. The planned timing of the survey remains unchanged for Kingfisher and Mick Well, however the Boolaloo survey has been delayed by approximately six weeks due to a lack of availability of equipment to complete the survey. Airborne EM surveys are effective in identifying conductive sulphide mineralisation up to depths of 300m below surface; a style of mineralisation which is targeted by the Company.
Activities completed Q1 2021, planned activities for Q2 and an indicative plan for Q3 to Q4 2021 are shown below.

Corporate
During the Quarter, the Company made applications for additional tenements at Mick Well (155km[2] ) and Arthur River (81km[2] ). These tenements significantly increase the Company’s tenure from 1,138km[2] to 1,375km[2 ] and results in the consolidation of as contiguous strike length of over 50km of the targeted copper and base metal horizon at the Kingfisher and Mick Well projects. Reviews of the previous exploration data for the tenements, which include the historic Mt Dalgety Zinc-Lead-Copper Project, will be completed during the June Quarter.
12
==> picture [126 x 55] intentionally omitted <==
Tenements E08/2945, E09/2242, E09/2319, E09/2320 and E09/2349 were transferred to Company from Peter Gianni and Red Field Pty Ltd, in accordance with the tenement sale agreement which was completed as part of the Company successful listing on the ASX.
Subsequent to the Quarter, the Company was awarded tenement EL09/2481 in a ballot which was drawn on 22 April 2021. The tenement increases the Company’s Gascoyne exploration tenure by 245km[2] , connecting the Kingfisher and Mick Well projects and increasing the Company’s holdings across the target copper horizon to a strike length of more than 50km (see Figure 10 for tenement location).
