Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 27, 2024) - Kuya Silver Corporation (CSE: KUYA) (OTCQB: KUYAF) (FSE: 6MR1) (the "Company" or "Kuya Silver") is pleased to announce the commencement of a first phase of drilling at its wholly owned Silver Kings Project, Ontario, Canada, with plans to drill a total of 10,000 m in multiple phases. A diamond drill is now on site to test for high-grade silver-cobalt mineralization at depth in the historic Cobalt Ontario silver mining camp. The program is expected to include drilling of the Company's new Frontier NW target (see below), the Campbell-Crawford target, as well as the Airgiod target where the first known drill hole, completed by Kuya in 2023, intersected silver-cobalt mineralization in an identical setting to the Angus Vein at the adjacent Campbell-Crawford prospect.

David Lewis, Kuya Silver's Vice President Exploration, commented: "It's great to have a drill back on site again at the Silver Kings Project, especially given the accomplishments that Kuya Silver made here in 2023. We've updated and refined our technical skillset and I'm looking forward to testing and expanding our discoveries in this world-class historic mining district."

Frontier NW target zone update

The brownfields Frontier NW target area is located 350 m NW of the Frontier Mine, which produced 7.0 million oz silver and 1.7 million pounds cobalt, primarily from the N-S trending Woods-Watson fault and fault-hosted veins (Sergiades 1968). This new zone is hosted by a 400 m long, NW-trending fault, named the Hammerstrom fault, which is of a comparable width to the Woods-Watson fault (~3 m). In 2018, eight 100 m-spaced drill holes intersected anomalous to mid-grade silver-cobalt mineralization (0.01 to 0.46% cobalt). A trenching program in 2023 uncovered three fault-hosted mineralized veins, which assayed up to 23 g/t silver, 4.1% cobalt and 1.1% nickel (1,250 g/t AgEq*) over 1.74 m (see Kuya Silver June 24, 2024 news release).

*AgEq (silver equivalent) values calculated on August 26, 2024, using the following values and assuming full recovery: Silver $29.94 USD/troy oz; Cobalt $24,300 USD/tonne; Nickel $16,758 USD/tonne.

Follow-up work in 2024 included surface mapping of the trenched areas, relogging of the previous drill holes, and the commissioning of a detailed Induced Polarization (IP) survey. Details of the surface width and extent of the Hammerstrom fault display well in the IP Resistivity plan maps and known mineralized veins (FNW Target 1) are extremely apparent in the Chargeability data (Figure 1). Importantly, a second area has a similar chargeable response within the Hammerstrom fault zone, suggesting the presence of additional, previously unknown mineralized veins (FNW Target 2). This work was designed and quality assured by Jeremy S. Brett, M.Sc., P.Geo., Senior Geophysical Consultant, Jeremy S. Brett International Consulting Ltd.

Historically, mineralization in the Silver Centre camp can be discontinuous along mineralized faults and/or veins, but is generally arranged in parallel, cigar-shaped, high-grade, plunging shoots. For example, a north-south long section of the Woods Vein at the Keeley and Frontier mines shows several steeply plunging shoots, defined by underground stopping on a north-south section (Figure 2). On an east-west long section of the No. 16 vein, mineralized shoots plunge more shallowly, parallel to the Nipissing Diabase rock contact (Figure 3).

Two aspects of mineralization can be made with the geophysical results and compiled mine workings:

  1. If the plunge of mineralized shoots can be established, high-grade mineralization on surface can be predicted to depth.
  2. Mineralization may follow an evenly spaced periodicity along mineralized structures.

Campbell-Crawford and Airgiod Targets

The Campbell-Crawford and Airgiod target areas, defined historically as separate mining claims, are otherwise continuous properties. In both cases, weakly-mineralized veins occur on surface within the 300 m thick Nipissing Diabase sill, and mineralization is being targeted in these structures at the lower diabase contact which was essentially untested prior to 2023, when Kuya Silver intersected bonanza-grade silver in a new discovery drill hole (see the following Kuya Silver news releases: March 15, 2023; April 4, 2023; May 30 2023). In subsequent trenching and drilling, at least six mineralized veins (both NW-SE and WSW-ENE trending) have been identified and traced at depth, with mineralization increasing dramatically in vein intersections and bends (see the following Kuya Silver news releases: June 29, 2023; January 11, 2024; January 29, 2024). Drilling will be focused on interpreted high-grade mineralized shoots at the Campbell-Crawford target and will follow-up on surface veins, fault zones and historic projected mineralization at the Airgiod target.
