(“K92” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: KNT; OTCQX: KNTNF) is pleased to announce results from the continuing diamond drilling of the Kora North Extension of the Kainantu gold mine in Papua New Guinea.
The results for the latest 11 diamond drill holes completed from both surface and underground into the Kora North deposit are summarized in Table 1 below. The first hole drilled from surface recorded approximately 50 metres below the existing Kora Resource and 200 metres above the Kora North Resource.
John Lewins, K92 Chief Executive Officer and Director, stated, “The latest results include the first hole drilled from surface into the zone between Kora North and Kora as well as multiple holes below the known Kora North deposit. The latest results continue to show the very high continuity of the K1 and K2 lodes with K92 drilling now having shown a vertical extent of Kora North of almost 700 metres. The whole Kora – Kora North – Eutompi system has now been shown to have a vertical extent in excess of 1,100 metres, while the known strike is over 1,000 metres. Importantly, the system remains open both at depth and along strike.
K92 added a second surface rig to the program during the Second Quarter, bringing the total diamond drill rigs operating at Kora/Kora North to five, including the three underground rigs. The Company plans to continue to operate these rigs for the balance of 2019 and to continue with this program into 2020.” |
