Rhea-AI Summary

Kingfisher Metals has completed its acquisition of the LGM Project from Origen Resources, as initially announced in June 2024. The transaction involved Kingfisher issuing 3,000,000 shares and paying C$75,000 to Origen. The LGM Project, spanning 26,771 hectares, expands Kingfisher's holdings in British Columbia's Golden Triangle from 362 km2 to 630 km2. The acquisition includes targets akin to KSM in the west and Galore Creek in the central region, with unexplored Eskay Creek-type stratigraphy to the east. Notable highlights include historical trench sampling at the Grizzly Target, which yielded 0.74% Cu and 1.09 g/t Au over 38 meters. Additionally, stream sampling at Lucifer identified a 4 km-long trend with samples grading up to 7.8 g/t Au. The LGM Project is fully permitted for diamond drilling and holds significant discovery potential for Galore Creek-type porphyry systems.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 10, 2024 / Kingfisher Metals Corp. (TSXV:KFR)(FSE:970)(OTCQB:KGFMF) ("Kingfisher" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed the acquisition of the LGM Project from Origen Resources Inc. ("Origen"), which was previously announced on June 6, 2024. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, the Company issued 3,000,000 common shares in the capital of Kingfisher to Origen and paid C$75,000 in cash to Origen in exchange for the transfer of the LGM Project claims on closing.

The 26,771 Ha LGM Project is located immediately south and contiguous with Kingfisher's HWY 37 Project, in Northwest British Columbia within the Golden Triangle. In addition, the LGM Property is subject to underlying royalty agreements over different parts of the project that range from 1 to 2% with Triple Flag Precious Metals (1%), Ryan Kalt (2%), and Carl von Einsiedel (2%).

LGM Project Highlights

  • Expansion of contiguous holdings in the Golden Triangle from 362 km2 to 630 km2 including KSM-type targets in west, alkalic Galore Creek-type targets in central region (Grizzly and Lucifer) and unexplored Eskay Creek-type stratigraphy to the east.

  • Grizzly Target trench sampling from 2006 returned 0.74% Cu and 1.09 g/t Au over 38 m.

  • The LGM Project represents one of only three silica-undersaturated magmatic-volcanic complexes in the Golden Triangle with discovery potential for Galore Creek-type porphyry systems and has only seen 3,988 m of drilling.

  • Historical stream sampling at Lucifer outlined a 4 km-long trend of highly anomalous stream sediment samples grading up to 7.8 g/t Au - similar in strength and scale to the Hank epithermal deposit signature at HWY 37.

  • LGM Project is fully permitted for diamond drilling.
