Kingfisher Metals (KGFMF) reported a high‑grade polymetallic intercept from drill hole HW-26-015 at the HWY 37 Project’s Hank porphyry target in the Golden Triangle. The hole cut an 8.8 m interval grading 20.33 g/t Au, 937.6 g/t Ag, 2.98% Cu, 11.08% Zn and 0.99% Pb, equivalent to 38.50 g/t AuEq(1), within a broader 27 m zone averaging 13.61 g/t AuEq(1) from 461.0 m to 488.0 m.
The mineralization occurs in a newly recognized high‑grade polymetallic vein on the margin of porphyry-style mineralization, with visible gold reported. HW-26-015 continues to 1,067 m and encountered porphyry-style copper-bearing veins from 660 m to end of hole; standard multi‑element assays for the remainder are pending. Across the 2026 program, 17 diamond drill holes totaling about 9,500 m have been drilled or are in progress at multiple targets within the Hank-Mary District, with several holes showing visually strong porphyry-style copper mineralization where assays are not yet available.
Kingfisher Metals (KGFMF) appointed Jasper Bertisen as an independent, non-executive director, effective immediately, and accepted the resignation of director Chris Beltgens. Bertisen is a mining investment and finance professional with over 20 years of experience, largely at Resource Capital Funds, and currently serves on several mining company boards and advisory roles, as well as teaching at Colorado School of Mines.

Kingfisher Metals (OTCQB: KGFMF) has begun its fully funded 2026 exploration program at the HWY 37 and Forrest Kerr projects in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle. The program centers on a 15,000 m, three‑rig diamond drill campaign targeting porphyry Cu-Au and epithermal Au-Ag systems.
Work includes ground IP at Hank-Mary, airborne MMT and magnetic surveys over the entire Forrest Kerr project, expanded LiDAR, and mapping and geochemistry across a 1,135 km² land package. Drilling starts at the Hank porphyry Cu-Au target, near discovery hole HW-25-011.
Kingfisher Metals (OTCQB:KGFMF) announced a fully funded 2026 exploration program at its HWY-37 (933 km2) and Forrest Kerr (202 km2) projects in BC's Golden Triangle.

Field mobilization begins late May with work through the fall. Qualified Person: Tyler Caswell, P.Geo.
Kingfisher Metals (OTCQB:KGFMF) reports new U-Pb zircon and Re-Os molybdenite ages that place porphyry and epithermal mineralization at Hank-Mary between ~190–186 Ma and ~188–184 Ma.
These dates overlap with the nearby Mitchell (KSM) porphyry and Brucejack epithermal systems, indicating a district-scale, Early Jurassic fertile window at the HWY 37 Project.
Kingfisher (OTCQB:KGFMF) identified a new near-surface porphyry copper-gold target at the Turquoise area within its 933 km² HWY 37 Project in the Golden Triangle on April 16, 2026. The target centers on a 0.5 by 2.0 km chargeability anomaly (peak 25 mV/V) supported by MVI, DC resistivity and MMT datasets and is described as drill-ready, ~6 km from existing highway and power.
Surface expression is limited by landslide and glacial till; proximal outcrops show advanced argillic alteration and >5% pyrite locally.
