K92 Mining Inc. Announces Its Latest High-Grade Results from the Ongoing Underground Diamond Drilling of the Kora, Kora South, Judd and Judd South Deposits in Addition to the Kora and Judd Deeps Targets At the Kainantu Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea
K92 Mining Inc. announced its latest high-grade results from the ongoing underground diamond drilling of the Kora, Kora South, Judd and Judd South deposits in addition to the Kora and Judd Deeps targets at the Kainantu Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea. Multiple high-grade dilatant zone intercepts recorded at Kora’s K2 vein, located near-mine infrastructure in the Twin Incline Mining Front, approximately 50 m from underground development. The intersections are associated with a previously interpreted dilatant zone (see June 5, 2025 press release) that is now defined to approximately 100 m along strike by 200 m vertical extent. This dilatant zone is expected to provide a near-term boost to mining productivity upon the introduction of pastefill, enabling bulk transverse long-hole open stoping. K2 vein dilatant zone intersection highlights include: KMDD0915: 20.50 m at 14.04 g/t gold equivalent (“AuEq”) (13.00 g/t Au, 16 g/t Ag, 0.84% Cu, KMDD0914: 10.70 m at 10.83 g/tAuEq (9.97 g/t Au, 41 g/t Ag, 0.36% Cu). Previously reported K2 vein dilatant zone intersection highlights include; KMDD0844: 12.80 m at 31.89 g/t AuEq (25.97 g/t Au, 58 g/t Ag, 3.35% Cu), KMDD0752: 13.50 m at 19.02 g/t AuEq (14.93 g/t Au, 199 g/t Ag, 1.00% Cu), KMDD0746: 14.40 m at 12.09 g/t AuEq (9.58 g/t Au, 54 g/t Ag, 1.15% Cu), KMDD0843: 10.10 m at 16.29 g/t AuEq (14.01 g/t Au, 82 g/t Ag, 0.84% Cu), KMDD0709: 12.14 m at 5.97 g/t AuEq (4.73 g/t Au, 7 g/t Ag, 0.72% Cu), KMDD0751: 9.50 m at 7.00 g/t AuEq (2.26 g/t Au, 42 g/t Ag, 2.63% Cu). Multiple thick, high-grade interceptions recorded at Kora Deeps along the K1 Vein, up to 350 m below the Twin Incline and 250 m below the 2023 mineral resource estimate (“MRE”) (effective September 12, 2023). Thick, high-grade mineralization is defined over a strike length of approximately 400 m to date, and remains open at depth and along strike to both the north and south. Additionally, multiple intersections recorded elevated copper grades. Highlights include: KMDD0909:8.00 m at 10.16 g/t AuEq(5.43 g/t Au, 80 g/t Ag,3.79% Cu), KMDD0880A:17.20 m at 5.04 g/t AuEq(4.41 g/t Au, 18 g/t Ag, 0.41% Cu), KMDD0913:13.75 m at 5.41 g/t AuEq(2.76 g/t Au, 17 g/t Ag,2.45% Cu), KMDD0896:9.10 m at 6.03 g/t AuEq(2.90 g/t Au, 24 g/t Ag,2.85% Cu), KMDD0944:12.40 m at 4.11 g/t AuEq(2.32 g/t Au, 18 g/t Ag,1.58% Cu). Multiple thick, high-grade intercepts recorded at Judd Deeps along the J1 Vein, up to 300 m below the Twin Incline and 350 m below the MRE. High-grade, thick mineralization has been defined over a 450 m strike to date, and remains open at depth and along strike to both the north and south. Highlights include: KMDD0896:8.50 m at 8.64 g/t AuEq(8.02 g/t Au, 11 g/t Ag, 0.49% Cu), KMDD0944:6.80 m at 6.21 g/t AuEq(5.28 g/t Au, 42 g/t Ag, 0.43% Cu), KMDD0895:5.05 m at 5.35 g/t AuEq(3.10 g/t Au, 35 g/t Ag, 1.85% Cu). The diamond drill hole is first logged to determine the sampling intervals, which range from a minimum of 0.1 m to generally 1 m. The drill core is sawn half core cut along a reference line, with the remainder of the core returned to the core tray. Core samples are then placed in numbered calico and plastic bags, with a numbered sample ticket for dispatch to the assay laboratory. Samples are separately assayed for gold, copper and silver. K92’s procedure includes the insertion standards, blanks and duplicates. Gold assays are by the fire assay method. Copper and silver assays are by three-acid-digestion method (nitric, perchloric and hydrochloric mix). K92 maintains an industry-standard analytical quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) and data verification program to monitor laboratory performance and ensure high quality assays. Results from this program confirm reliability of the assay results. All sampling and analytical work for the mine exploration program is performed by Intertek Testing Services (PNG) Ltd, an independent accredited laboratory that is located on site. External check assays for QA/QC purposes are performed at SGS Australia Pty Ltd. in Townsville, Queensland, Australia. K92 Mining Chief Geologist, Andrew Kohler, PGeo, MAIG, Qualified Person under the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, has reviewed and is responsible for the technical content of this news release. In addition to the analytical QA/QC program outlined above, data verification also includes significant time onsite reviewing drill core, soil and outcrop sampling, artisanal workings, as well as discussing work programs and results with geology personnel and external consultants.
