Kingfisher Provides Exploration Update at HWY 37 Project, Golden Triangle
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, August 28, 2025 – Kingfisher Metals Corp. (TSX-V: KFR) (FSE:
970) (OTCQB: KGFMF) (“Kingfisher” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the
2025 exploration program at the HWY 37 Project. The 849 km2 HWY 37 Project is located within
the Golden Triangle, British Columbia.
Drilling to date has focused on testing for depth extensions of the Williams porphyry Cu -Au
system, porphyry Cu-Au targets across the valley (east) in areas with no historical drilling, and at
the Upper and Lower Hank porphyry Cu-Au targets (Figures 1, 2 and Table 1).
Summary of Work Completed to date:
• 6,850 meters of drilling
o HW-25-001, -002, -003, -004, and -006 have been sent to the Bureau Vertitas lab
for assay (currently logging the remainder)
• 84 person days of mapping
• >750 soil samples
• >650 surface rocks samples
• 30.7 line-km of IP geophysics
• 1,750 line -km (covering ~319 km 2) of airborne Mobile Magneto Tellurics (MMT)
geophysical survey
• Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) survey covering 256 km2
The exploration team is busy compiling and interpreting all the information that has been collected
this season.
Dustin Perry, CEO, states “We continue to see our exploration hypothesis validated with visible
copper mineralization directly below known grade at Williams . HW-25-006 at Upper Hank
intersected an 800-m vertically extensive sulfide-bearing hydrothermal system, confirming our
hypothesis that the multi -kilometer scale hydrothermal system at Hank extends significantly at
depth. In addition to drilling, our exploration team and consultants have covered a broad area with
multiple geological, geophysical, and geochemical programs that will serve to further unlock the
potential of this highly prospective large project.”

Williams Area Drilling
At the time of writing, four diamond drill holes have been completed (3,375 m) within the Williams
mineralized system, with one in progress. The initial two holes completed at Williams, HW-25-001
and HW-25-004 were previously discussed in a news release on July 31st. Since that time, HW-
25-008 and HW-25-010 have been completed to a total depth of 893 m and 797 m respectively.
HW-25-009 is currently in progress and is proposed to a final depth of 750 m (see Figure 1). The
purpose of the drill holes HW-25-008, -009, and -010 are to delineate the deep-level geometry of
the Williams porphyry system.
HW-25-008
This hole was designed to cross quartz stockwork vein s with chalcopyrite +/ - bornite
mineralization observed at surface, and test the strike and depth extent of the Williams porphyry
to the northeast. Hole HW-25-008 has several intercepts (Figures 3, 4, 5) of both early and syn-
mineral monzonite porphyry with higher copper mineralized intervals with bornite within and at
flank of the syn-mineral porphyry.
Summary:
• 0–157 m: potassic alteration with varying amounts of chalcopyrite ± bornite
• 157–253 m: felsic stratigraphy with low sulfide and trace chalcopyrite concentrations
• 253–810 m: potassic alteration in mixed monzonite and wall rock with variable
chalcopyrite ± bornite
810–893 m: flanking alteration of epidote-magnetite-K-feldspar, low relative chalcopyrite
and increase in pyrite

HW-25-009
Hole HW-25-009 collared in the SW Williams deposit with azimuth of 260 o and dip of -82o. It is
designed to cross and characterize the deeper extents of the porphyry alteration below historical
hole HNK-18-002. At the time of writing, this hole is in progress.
HW-25-010
Hole HW-25-010 collars uphill of HW -25-009 on same drill pad as HW -25-008 with azimuth of
075º and dip of -85º. Similar to hole HW-25-009, the hole is designed to test the deeper domain
boundaries of the porphyry system. Hole HW -25-010 accomplished this goal and defined the
eastern boundary of the porphyry alteration system. The hole is recently shut down and detailed
geological logging is underway.
Summary:
• 0–196.5 m: potassic alteration with varying amounts of chalcopyrite +/- bornite in wall
rock
• 196.5–268 m: felsic host rock less favourable host, low relative chalcopyrite abundance
• 268–521 m: variable potassic alteration in mixed monzonite and wall rock with
chalcopyrite +/- bornite
• 521–797 m: wall rock overprinted by porphyry flanking-type alteration (K-feldspar-
epidote-magnetite-chlorite) and low relative chalcopyrite

Upper Hank Drilling
Hole HW-25-006 was collared at 295o azimuth and -78o dip and targeted a chargeability anomaly
at Upper Hank. The hole follows an initial attempt with HW-25-005, which was lost at 281 m depth
due to challenging ground conditions.
Preliminary Summary of HW-25-006:
• The data and observations are currently being compiled and interpreted. Once final assay
results are received, we will concentrate on final interpretations and possible future
targeting
• This is the first test into the large-scale lithocap observed on the project
• Drilled to a total depth of 842 m
• Vertically zoned system from upper chalcedonic silica-pyrite to deeper-level biotite-quartz-
pyrite
• Collared into a previously mapped pyrite-rich breccia body at surface
