RIEDEL COMMENCES DRILLING HIGH-GRADE GOLD AND SILVER TARGETS AT KINGMAN GOLD PROJECT
Highlights:
- Boart-Longyear rig commenced drilling on 16 th September 2021
- Drilling focussed on the Tintic area where Riedel achieved numerous high-grade gold and silver drill assays results earlier this year
- First assay results from drilling expected mid-November 2021
Riedel Resources Limited (ASX:RIE, Riedel or the Company) is pleased to announce its reverse circulation (RC) drill program at the Kingman Gold Project in Arizona has commenced on schedule with the program being undertaken by Boart-Longyear - who completed Riedel's previous RC program in April this year.
The drill program will focus on the Tintic mine area, where drilling in February/March this year confirmed multiple high-grade gold and silver assays located close to surface including 3.8m @ 98.8 g/t gold & 151 g/t silver from 20.6m (hole 2021-CHL-004) and 1.5m @ 39.3g/t gold & 323 g/t silver from 37.3m (hole 2021- CHL-011) 1 .
Subject to laboratory turnaround times, the Company anticipates receiving first drill assay results from this program in mid-November 2021.

Project Background
The Kingman Project is located in north-west Arizona, USA, approximately 90 minutes' drive from downtown Las Vegas and within 5km of a major highway (refer Map 1).

The project area was mined predominantly for high-grade gold and silver from the 1880s until the early 1940s - which coincided with the outbreak of WWII. Following limited drilling near Tintic in the 1990's, 11 diamond holes were drilled on the property in late 2019 which intersected multiple zones of high-grade gold, silver and lead from shallow depths, confirming the extensive mineralisation potential of the area (refer Riedel ASX announcement dated 23 October 2020).
In April 2021, Riedel completed a 5,000m RC drill program over several historic mine areas on the property, including at Tintic, Merrimac, Arizona Magma and Jim's. This drilling returned numerous high-grade gold and silver assay results including 3.8m at 98.9g/t gold and 151g/t silver from 20.6m at Tintic (refer ASX announcement dated 23 March 2021). In addition, it confirmed a 1.8km long exploration target associated with the historic Jim's mine to host significant gold, silver, zinc and lead mineralisation as shallow as 1.5m below surface (refer Riedel's ASX announcement dated 19 April 2021).
The Kingman Project has seen minimal modern exploration. Riedel's RC drill program completed in April 2021 was its first at Kingman, where it is looking to acquire up to an 80% interest in via its December 2020 Agreement with Flagstaff Minerals Limited and Flagstaff Minerals (USA) Inc (refer Riedel's ASX announcement dated 23 October 2020).
This announcement was approved for release by the Board of Directors of Riedel.
