PRESS RELEASE TSX-V: KMT.V
For immediate release
Komet reports 185 and 149.6 g/t Au from grab samples within the Guiro mine.
Québec City, January 29, 2018 – Komet Resources Inc. (“Komet” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce
a gold discovery 4km from the Guiro mine and the development of a new unmined shoot at the mine.
New Gold Zone
Komet geologists’ verification of three 40m deep gold diggers’ shafts, located about 4km northeast of the Guiro
mine, revealed a quartz vein with a true width of 1.5m, oriented east-west, with a northward dip of 60 degrees.
The vein has the same mineralogical composition and the same host rock limonitic alteration from weathering
as the Guiro mine vein.
Sampling was carried out by Komet geologists in sealed bags directly from grab samples brought to surface by
the gold diggers. The samples are random samples (3 grabs takes per composite sample). These grab samples
are indicative but not representative of the grade of the gold structure.
Table of results of the grab samples:
Samples Description Au g/t
201 806 870 White quartz vein with black minerals bands, bearing limonite, hematite and pyrite 47.0
201 806 871 White quartz vein with black minerals bands, bearing limonite, hematite and pyrite 7.08
201 806 872 White quartz vein with black minerals bands, bearing limonite, hematite and pyrite with rare
banded hematite
13.9
201 806 873 White quartz vein with hematitic alteration and disseminated hematite and pyrite 12.4
201 806 874 White quartz vein with hematite stringers with disseminated limonite and pyrite 9.89
New underground zone at the Guiro mine.
During the development in the western sector of the mine (see the October 23, 2017 press release), the Level 3
west gallery intercepted the junction where the 210/80 oriented shear cuts the Guiro vein (270/60).
In this sector the Guiro vein is hardly perceptible due to the shear that displaced the main structure. However,
the operators noted the presence of thin centimetric quartz veins with gold mineralization, grading up to 120 g/t
over 1.2m obtained from jackleg drill holes.
Table of the best results over 1.2m (true width) from jackleg drill holes:
Samples Au g/t
201 706 564 120.0
201 706 574 10.1
201 706 575 31.8
201 706 581 110.0
In order to better characterize this zone, several grab samples were taken from the roof, the wall and the sludge
surrounding these thin chloritized white-pink quartz veins.
Summary of the best results of the grab samples:
Samples Au g/t
201 706 611 72.5

Picture of the new zone with visible gold:
The chimney to which the current development of level 3 is oriented, theoretically lies 25m farther west and has
already been intercepted by the Gu2015dd04, 06, 32 and 35 diamond drill holes who show metric grades
reaching 31.1g/t Au (see the September 10, 2015, press release for more details).
Samples Au g/t

Table of the survey intercepting the chimney:
Survey From (m) To (m) g/t Au Span (m) True width (m)
Gu2015dd04 125.33 127.28 5.81 1.95 1.69
Gu2015dd06 80.60 83.40 2.05 2.80 2.42

Gu2015dd35 105.45 106.80 31.1 1.35 1.17
This chimney is at least 50m wide at level 3 and continues to level 2 and 4 and should have, between these
levels, a 60x50x2m size.
Guiro Mine Exploration
The sinistral offset of the Guiro structure, along the 210-degree shear in the west section of the mine, implies
that this type of displacement might be present in the eastern sector, involving the displacement of the Guiro
vein to the north and thus opening up new exploration targets northeast of the Guiro mine.
Mr André Gagné, president and CEO declare: “After a discovery south to the Guiro vein (see the may 25, 2017
press release), we now have a new vein to the north which is also similar to the Guiro vein. The exploration
activities will hence be intensified in the next few weeks; it appears that the historical exploration data is getting
confirmed.”
The grab samples assays reported were obtained by standard 30 grams fire-assaying-AA finish or gravimetric
finish at the Company’s mine site laboratory. Quality Assurance/Quality Control and interpretation of results is
performed by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with NI 43 –101 and industry best
practices, including the introduction of standards or blanks with every batch of 3 samples analyzed.
The diamond drill holes samples from 2015 were analyzed by the SGS Lab in Ouagadougou using fire assay
followed by atomic absorption spectrometry.
