Kin Mining NL (ASX: KIN) is pleased to announce that the results from the recent Resource drilling at the Company’s Kyte deposit have been received. Kyte is located within the Cardinia Mining Centre at Kin’s Leonora Gold Project (LGP). Kyte is a priority area in the future mining schedule for the LGP due to its favourable economics.

Kin is continuing to review its deposits at the LGP with drilling designed to enhance the resource base and improve on the reserve conversion.

Kin’s 2018 drilling program commenced at Kyte in areas with the potential to grow the Mineral Resources to the east, south and at depth. A total of 44 reverse circulation (RC) drill holes for 2,796m were completed during February and March 2018. Deeper drilling has identified primary gold mineralisation (KY18RC083) (see Figure 3, section A-A’), while drilling to the south has identified narrow gold mineralisation which will also be incorporated into a model update (KY19RC091 and KY18RC106).

Exploration Program

Following the drilling at Kyte, resource development drilling has continued at the Helens and Helens South deposits, as has exploration drilling at the Mertondale 3-4 resource. Resource development drilling will follow at both the Bruno and Lewis deposits.

The drill holes at Helens are designed to follow up the excellent results returned in late 2017 (see ASX Announcement 12 December 2017: Further Thick High-Grade Mineralisation Intersected at Cardinia). Kin expects to release the first results from this drilling in late April.

Exploration drilling at Mertondale 3-4 is designed to test for possible underground mining targets of the known gold mineralisation. Historic production from Mertondale 3-4 was 1.3Mt @ 4.29 g/t Au for 179koz Au. Current planning is to drill three diamond holes for a total of 990m and three RC holes for 480m of drilling. Gold mineralisation is associated with felsic porphyry units within a subvertical shear structure close to a felsic volcanic - basalt contact (see Figure 5). Drilling is currently underway.

Mertondale 3-4 is 15km from the planned Cardinia processing plant.

SECTION 1 – Sample Techniques and Data

SECTION 1 – Sample Techniques and Data
Criteria Commentary
Sampling
techniques
Reverse Circulation (RC) drill holes are sampled as one metre (1m) riffle or cone split samples, as
drilled. Samples were collected as individual split metre intervals. Approximately 3-4kg of sample
was collected over each sampled (1m) interval. All submitted samples are drill spoil collected via a
riffle or cone splitter attached to the rig cyclone and collected/split as drilled. Sampling techniques
are considered to be in line with the standard industry practice and are considered to be
representative.
All drill holes are accurately located and referenced with grid coordinates recorded in the standard
MGA94 Zone51 grid system. Samples are collected using a standard RC face sampling hammer
bit, they are split/bagged/logged at the drill site. Samples were analysed via Fire Assayed (50 gram
charge) for Au only.
Only the drill results contained in the table of significant intersections are considered in this
document. All samples and drilling procedures are conducted and guided by Kin Mining NL
protocols, QA/QC procedures are implemented as per industry standard.
Drilling
techniques
Drilling from surface is completed by standard Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling techniques. RC
drilling was conducted by Orbit Drilling Pty Ltd using a Hydco 350 8x8 Actross drilling rig with a
350psi/1250cfm air capacity. RC drilling used a face-sampling hammer over 140mm diameter drill
holes. The holes have been surveyed (down hole) using a multi-shot downhole camera. Drill holes
are surveyed at the completion of the hole at various intervals, depending on hole depth, inside
stainless steel rods connected to the end of the drill string.
Drill sample
recovery
Sample recovery is measured and monitored by both the drill contractor and Kin Mining
representatives, bag volume is visually estimated and sample recovery was generally very good.
The volume of sample collected for assay is considered to be a composite representative sample
of the metre drilled. Sample recovery is maximized by using best-practice drill techniques, the entire
1m sample is blown back through the rod string, the cyclone is then sealed at the completion of
each metre, and the collected sample interval was originally riffle split. The riffle splitter is attached
to the rig cyclone; the entire (1m) sample is split. The riffle splitter and cyclone is cleaned with
compressed air at the end of each metre and at the completion of the hole. During the drill program
the sample splitting methodology was changed from riffle split collection to sample collection via a
cone splitter, the cyclone cleaning processes remained the same
The vast majority of samples were collected dry however on rare occasions wet or damp samples
were encountered however the vast majority of the reported intersections were collected over dry
intervals; sampling equipment was cleaned periodically to reduce cross bag contamination. RC drill
samples are collected, recorded and stored in numbered calico bags and then removed from the
field and stored in a secure yard.
No relationship was observed between sample recovery and grade.
Logging Kin’s procedure for geological logging of the sample in the field includes recording the colour,
lithology, sulphide mineralisation content, veining, alteration, oxidation, grid coordinates, sample
interval, water table depth and hole depth. Data is physically and electronically logged and stored.
The level of logging detail is considered appropriate for resource drilling. Logging of geology and
colour are interpretative and qualitative, whereas logging of mineral percentage is quantitative.
All drill holes are logged in their entirety, at 1m intervals, to the end of hole. All drill hole logging
data is digitally and physically captured, data is validated prior to being uploaded to the data base.
Criteria Commentary
Sub-
sampling
techniques
and sample
preparation
See Sampling techniques in the above section.
The sample collection methodology is considered appropriate for RC drilling and is within today’s
standard industry practice. Split one metre sample (1m) results are regarded as reliable and
representative. RC samples are split with a riffle or cone splitter at one metre intervals as drilled.
Analysis was conducted by SGS Mineral Services Laboratories. At the laboratory samples are
dried, crushed and pulverised until the sample is homogeneous. Analysis technique for gold (only)
was a Fire Assay 50 gram charge AAS finish (Lab method FAA505).
The vast majority of samples were collected dry; on occasion ground water was encountered and
a minimal number of samples were collected damp. Periodically certified reference material and
duplicate samples were submitted with the sample batch. The assay laboratory (SGS) also included
their own internal checks and balances consisting of repeats and standards; repeatability and
standard results were within acceptable limits.
No issues have been identified with sample representatively. The sample size is considered
appropriate for this type of mineralisation style.
Quality of
assay
data and
laboratory
tests
Geochemical analysis was conducted by SGS Laboratories in Kalgoorlie. Sample preparation
included drying the samples (105°C) and pulverising to 95% passing 75µm. Samples were then
riffle split to secure a sample charge of 50 grams. Analysis was via Fire Assay (FAA505) with AAS
finish. Only gold analysis was conducted (ppm detection). The analytical process and the level of
detection are considered appropriate for this stage of exploration.
Fire assay is regarded as a complete digest technique.
No geophysical tools were used to determine any element concentrations.
Internal laboratory quality control procedures have been adopted and accepted. Certified reference
material in the form of standards, blanks and duplicates are periodically imbedded in the sample
batch by Kin Mining at a ratio of 1:20.
Verification
of_sampling
_and

assaying
The reported significant intersections have been verified by company geologists. All the logged
samples have been assayed; the assay data has been stored physically and electronically in the
company database using Kin Mining’s protocols. The sampling and assay data has been compiled,
verified and interpreted by company geologists.
No holes were twined. No adjustments, averaging or calibrations are made to any of the assay data
recorded in the database. QA/QC protocol is considered industry standard with standard reference
material submitted on a routine basis.
Location of
data points
Drill hole collars were located and recorded in the field using a hand held GPS with a three metre
or better accuracy and then followed up by licensed surveyors using a RTK DGPS (with a horizontal
and vertical accuracy of ±50mm.). The grid coordinate system utilised is (GDA94 Zone51). Hole
locations were visually checked on the ground for spatial verification. Topographic control (i.e.
surface RL) was recorded by the surveyors as part of the DGPS pick-up.
Data
spacing
and
distribution
The drill hole spacing is project specific; the RC drilling patterns employed were dependent on
previous drilling and geological interpretation. The sample spacing is considered close enough to
identify significant zones of gold mineralisation. The drill programme is a follow up/ongoing
exploration exercise that was designed to identify areas of geological interest and to confirm
existing known mineralisation at Kyte. Closer spaced drilling on surrounding cross sections and
follow up diamond drilling maybe required to further delineate the extent, size and geometry of
some areas within the identified zones of gold mineralisation.
Drill spacing and drill technique is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade
continuity appropriate for the mineral resources and ore reserve estimation procedures and
classifications applied however the mineralised system remains open and additional infill or deeper
Criteria Commentary
drilling maybe required to close off and confirm the full extent of the ore body, particularly at depth.
Orientation
of
data in
relation
to
geological
structure
The sheared Mertondale greenstone sequence displays a NNE to North trend. The tenement
package is contiguous; the drilling and sampling programme was designed to provide, as best as
practicable, an unbiased location of drill sample data.
The chance of sample bias introduced by sample orientation is considered minimal. No orientation
sampling bias has been identified in the data thus far.
The vast majority of historical drilling and this campaign (KY17RC068-111) are orientated at 250°/-
60°.
Gold mineralisation at Kyte occurs in weathered, oxide and transitional mafic (Basaltic) sequences.
Gold mineralisation comprises flat lying and moderately dipping zones with related to supergene
gold enrichment. The Kyte deposit is moderately to deeply weathered. Originally the deposit was
Aircore drilled on a 20m x 40m grid pattern by Navigator Resources. Kin Mining have infilled the
grid pattern with RC drilling also on a nominal 20m x 40m grid, drilling in between and outside the
existing Navigator drill pattern.
Sample
security
Once samples are collected from the field they are stored in a secure lockable location in Leonora.
Upon completion of several drill holes batches of samples were transported to Kalgoorlie by an
SGS transport contractor. The samples were then stored at their Kalgoorlie lab in a secure lockable
building. Samples are checked against the field manifest, sorted and prepared for assay. Samples
were then processed and assayed under the supervision of SGS at their Kalgoorlie laboratory.
Once in the laboratories possession adequate sample security measures are utilised.
Audits or
reviews
Sampling methodologies and assay techniques used in this drilling programme are considered to
be mineral exploration industry standard and any audits or reviews are not considered necessary
at this particular exploration stage. No audits or reviews have been conducted at this stage apart
from internal reviews and fieldqualitycontrol.

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results

Criteria Commentary
Mineral
tenement and
land tenure
status
The RC drill program was conducted on the Kyte prospect on tenement M37/227; the general
area is referred to as Cardinia centered 35km NE of Leonora. The tenements are held in the
name of Navigator Mining Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Kin Mining NL. The tenements
are managed, explored and maintained by Kin Mining NL. The tenements drilled represent a
small portion of the larger Cardinia-Mertondale Project which hosts the 1,023,000oz Leonora
Gold Project (LGP) Resources (ASX announcement 30/8/17). The tenements are located within
the Shire of Leonora in the Mt Margret Mineral Field in the centre of the North Eastern Goldfields.
There is no known heritage or environmental impediments over the resource areas.
Exploration
done by
other parties
The Cardinia deposits have been extensively drilled by a number of companies including Mt
Edon, SGW and in more recent times Navigator. A review of the collar file reveals the following
companies Navigator (NAV), NR (Normandy Resources?), MET (Metana), SGW (Sons of
Gwalia), CIM (Centenary), AZT (Aztec), HLM (Harbour Lights) have all contributed to various
exploration drill programmes, however the vast majority of exploration at Kyte was conducted by
Navigator. A test parcel of ore was mined by NAV from the nearby Bruno pit (100,000t) grade
and recoveries exceeded expectations. Navigator commissioned Runge Limited to complete a
Mineral Resource estimate for the Cardinia deposit in January 2009.
Drilling has been conducted in the immediate area surrounding the Kin drill holes by Navigator.
The data base has been interrogated and scrutinised to a level where the LGPgold resources
Criteria Commentary
are JORC 2012 compliant (ASX announcement 30/8/17). Visual validation, using 3D software,
has been conducted as well as cross referencing with historic reports. Mineralisation between
cross sections is cohesive and robust, suggesting that the data is valid.
Geology The regional geology comprises a suite of NNE-North trending greenstones positioned on the
Mertondale Shear Zone (MSZ), a splay limb of the Kilkenny Lineament. The MSZ denotes the
contact between Archaean felsic volcanoclastic and sediment sequences (west) and Archaean
mafic volcanics (east). Proterozoic dykes and Archaean felsic porphyries have intruded the
altered mafic basalt/felsicvolcanoclastic/sedimentary sequence of the MSZ.
The Cardinia Project geology comprises intermediate mafic and felsic volcanic lithologies and locally
derived epiclastic sediments. The regional lithological strike is 345° and contacts are usually steeply
dipping, foliations tend to dip moderately to the east.
Within the Cardinia deposits gold distribution is highly variable resulting in very closely spaced drilling
being required to confidently delineate the mineralised zones. Primary gold mineralisation is associated
with increased shearing associated with lithological contacts between mafic and felsic rocks.
Disseminated carbonate‐sericite‐quartz‐pyrite alteration zones are adjacent to the gold mineralisation.
At Kyte virtually all the known mafic hosted gold mineralisation is associated withflat lying and
moderately dipping zones with related supergene gold enrichment. The Kyte deposit is
moderately to deeply weathered andinterpreted to be related to supergene gold enrichment.
Interpretation of cross sections reveals a series of mineralised NNW structures.
Drill hole
Information
The location of drill hole collars is presented as part of the significant intersection table in the
body of this report. Significant down hole gold intersections are presented in the table of
intersections. All hole depths refer to down hole depth in metres. All hole collars are surveyed
and MGA94 Zone51 DGPS positioned. Elevation (R.L.) is recorded as part of the surveyed collar
pick up. Drill holes are measured from the collar (top) of the hole to the bottom of the hole.
Data
Aggregation
methods
No averaging of the raw assay data was applied. Raw data was used to determine the location
and width of gold intersections and anomalous gold trends. Geological assessment and
interpretation was used to determine the relevance of the plotted intersections with respect to the
sampled medium.
Individual grades are reported as down hole length weighted averages. Only RC intersections
greater than or close to 0.5 g/t Au are regarded as significant. Anomalous intersections are tabled
in the body of this report. Reported mineralised zones have a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t Au with no
more than 2m of internal dilution (<0.1g/t Au).
No top cuts were applied to any assay values.

lengths
The Drilling at Kyte was on an Azimuth of 250° and an angle of -60°. The drill hole orientation
may not be at an optimal angle to the flat lying nature of the supergene mineralisation however
the holes are orientated in the same direction as the historic Navigator drilling. As a result the
reported intersections may not represent true widths. Reported mineralised intercepts are within
and outside the confines of the existing gold resource envelope however they have not yet been
incorporated into the current parameters of the Kyte Inferred resource calculation. The maximum
and minimum sample width within the reported mineralised zones is 1m.
Diagrams Relevant “type example” plans are included in the body of this report.
Balanced
Reporting
Detailed assay results are diagrammatically displayed and tabled in this report. Only the
significant gold results are discussed and reported.
The available historic database includes a inherited data set compiled by previous project owners
dating back to 1982. There are limitations in the amount of information provided in the data set.
It has not beenpossible to fullyverifythe reliabilityand accuracyofportions of the data however
Criteria Commentary
it appears that no serious problems have occurred and validation check results were within
acceptable limits. Most of the historic drilling at Kyte was conducted by Navigator Resources. In
general the recent data is more reliable than historic data.
Considering the complex history of grid transformations there must be some residual risk in
converting old local grids to GDA94 although generally the survey control appears to be accurate
and satisfactory.
In the case of the existing LGP resource calculation there is always an area of technical risk
associated with resource tonnage and grade estimations.

Substantive
exploration
data
Regarding the results received no other substantive data is currently considered necessary. All
meaningful and material information is or has been previously reported
Further work The potential to increase the existing resource is viewed as probable, however committing to
further work does not guarantee that an upgrade in the resource would be achieved. Kin Mining
intend to drill more holes at Kyte with the intention of increasing the Cardinia resources and
converting the Inferred portions of the resources to the Indicated category.
