Drilling Extend Upper High-Grade Zone at SOZ,
Mineral Hill
Kingston Resources Limited (ASX: KSN) (‘Kingston’ or ‘The Company’) has extended the
high-grade upper A Lode at the Southern Ore Zone (SOZ), Mineral Hill, with new assay
results confirming continuity of mineralisation to the east and south, remaining open in
both directions.
This is significant because A Lode underpins a large portion of the current Mineral
Resource at SOZ — an extension to the east and south increases the potential for
additional tonnage in planned Mineral Resource updates.
Key Highlights:

Managing Director and CEO, Andrew Corbett commented:
“The Upper A Lode, intersected with KSNDDH085, is one of the highest-grade parts of the
Southern Ore Zone. Our geology team is keenly aware of the potential to grow the
estimated tonnage here. We’ve got 25,000m of drilling planned for FY27 and a key part
of this will be obtaining approvals for surface drilling to target discoveries and extensions
adjacent to the existing underground development. These results reinforce our
confidence in the scale of the SOZ system and support our pathway to a larger, longer-
life underground operation at Mineral Hill.”
These results extend the Southern Ore Zone on two fronts. To the east and south,
the high-grade, polymetallic Upper A Lode continues to grow and remains open. At
the northern end of SOZ, KSNDDH079 has extended the Au-Cu rich G/H Lode further
to the north, while KSNDDH068 and KSNDDH069 have infilled and confirmed high-
grade mineralisation within the existing model.

KSNDDH085 was designed to infill the upper sections of the A Lode mineralisation at the
Southern Ore Zone (SOZ). Immediately north of this drill hole, the mineralisation is
interpreted to dip approximately 17° to the west. This drill hole has now extended the
extremely high-grade mineralisation in this lode to the south and remains open. This
reduces geological risk in areas already included in the Mineral Resource, while the
southward extension opens up new mineralised strike length beyond the current
resource boundary.
The high-grade intersection between 209m and 231.1m has returned high-grade assays
for gold, copper, lead, zinc and silver, but is particularly high for lead and zinc. The sections
of solid galena (lead mineral) are shown in the core photos in Figure 3 between 223.45 and
228.75m. The highlight intersections for KSNDDH085 include:
• 31.10m @ 2.68% Pb, 2.62% Zn, 24g/t Ag from 165.9m (KSNDDH085).
• 22.10m @ 1.62g/t Au, 1.47% Cu, 8.98% Pb, 3.13% Zn, 132g/t Ag from 209.0m (4.25m
true width) (KSNDDH085).
KSNDDH086 was drilled to beneath hole 085, also returning excellent results, confirming
the existing Mineral Resource geological model.

KSNDDH068, 069 and 079 have intersected high-grade copper-gold mineralisation in
the G Lode and H Lode areas at the northern end of the Southern Ore Zone. The
mineralisation is hosted in quartz-carbonate veins and structures with significant
chalcopyrite (copper mineral). Highlight intersections include:
• 6.20m @ 0.93g/t Au & 0.92% Cu from 71.2m (KSNDDH068)
• 10.85m @ 0.39g/t Au & 1.03% Cu from 80.1m (KSNDDH068)

Metal Equivalents
This announcement quotes metal equivalent grades as defined by Kingston Resources.
Price assumptions used are based on market consensus forecasts, with adjustments to
account for reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction (RPEEE), as guided by
JORC reporting guidelines. Copper equivalent (CuEq) conversion factors are used within
the announcement and are calculated by multiplying the grades for each contributing
metal by their respective metal price and recovery and dividing by the multiplication of
the copper price and copper recovery.
Metallurgical recoveries are based on historical production (2010-2016) as well as recent
metallurgical test work and are applied to the Resource and Reserve calculated grades
for each commodity. The Company is of the opinion that all the elements included in the
metal equivalent calculations have a demonstrated potential to be recovered and sold.
Mineral Hill is currently producing metal concentrates and dorѐ (from the CIL circuit) on
site. With polymetallic underground production, the mine's revenue base will broaden
across gold, copper, lead, zinc and silver, supporting more stable cash flow through
commodity price cycles. Upon the commencement of underground polymetallic
production, the Company will have a Cu flotation circuit, Pb flotation circuit and Zn
flotation circuit to produce three different concentrates as well as precious metal dorѐ.
Commodity Unit *Price Deposit Commodity Recovery (%) CuEq Factor

Appendix 1. SOZ Underground Drilling - JORC Code Table 1
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques
• Nature and quality of sampling (e.g.
cut channels, random chips, or
specific specialised industry
standard measurement tools
appropriate to the minerals under
investigation, such as down hole
gamma sondes, or handheld XRF
instruments, etc). These examples
should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling.
• Include reference to measures
taken to ensure sample
representivity and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement
tools or systems used.
• Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to
the Public Report.
• In cases where ‘industry standard’
work has been done this would be
relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to
obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg
was pulverised to produce a 30 g
Diamond Drilling Sample Collection
• A diamond core drill rig was used to produce rock samples of
core. Run length was variable between 3m and 1m depending on
the ground conditions and any expected mineralisation.
• Triple Tube HQ and NQ barrel set up was utilised to maximize
recoveries.
• Diamond drill core is orientated where orientation tools provided
an outcome that is assessed as reliable.
• The geologist selects sample intervals based on logged geology
(lithology, alteration, mineralisation, structures) with minimum
sample length of 0.3m and maximum of 1.5m. Half core samples
were taken from start to end of hole. All drill core is sampled
using an automated/mechanical core cutting machine with
diamond cutting blade. Samples comprise half core with sample
intervals determined by the geologist and recorded as a cut
sheet.
• For orientated drill core a cutting reference line is drawn
approximately 15mm offset from the orientation line. Drill core is
cut along the cut line with the orientation line not sampled and
returned to the core box for future reference.
• Non-orientated drill core is cut along a reference line that is the
best approximation of the extensions of the orientation reference
line with the intent of ensuring the same half core is sampled.
• Samples are placed in calico bags and dispatched to ALS

more explanation may be required,

problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (e.g. submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailed information.
laboratory where they are received and registered with a sample
receipt document provided as a record of the chain of custody
process.
Analysis of Geotechnical Samples
• Field point load testing (PLT) was conducted on solid pieces of
core >100mm in length from every 3rd core tray. Different rock
type samples were selected to collect a range of data reflecting
varying rock mass strengths throughout each hole.
Drilling
techniques
• Drill type (e.g. core, reverse
circulation, open-hole hammer,
rotary air blast, auger, Bangka,
sonic, etc) and details (e.g. core
diameter, triple or standard tube,
depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether
core is oriented and if so, by what
method, etc).
• Diamond Core Drilling: - 36 diamond drill holes have been
completed to date for a total of 4042.6 metres
• This release refers to 5 diamond drill holes that have been
completed in the program for a total of 844.9 metres.
• The holes were collared in two separate sites in existing SOZ
underground drives on the 1100 Level.
• All holes were diamond cored with HQ3 with the option to reduce
to NQ3 where adverse ground conditions were encountered.
• All holes were oriented using an Axis North-seeking Gyroscopic
tool. During drilling a collar check survey and a 15m survey was
taken, followed by surveys every 30m from 30m depth to end of
hole. Prior to completing each hole, a multi-shot continuous gyro
survey was taken. Each single shot and EOH multi-shot was then
uploaded to the cloud-hosted Axis database for retrieval and
review by Geology.
• Reverse Circulation Drilling
• No Reverse Circulation drilling was completed as part of the
program being reported or depicted in the release.
Drill sample
recovery
• Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries
and results assessed.
• Diamond Drill Core
• Diamond drill core is recovered on a run-by-run basis where
the length drilled, and axial length recovered is recorded by

the drilling crew. Run length and recovery are remeasured
and calculated in the core processing area. No significant
discrepancies have been noted between driller and KSN
determined runs and recovery.
• Diamond drill core is sampled as half core using a diamond
blade auto saw.
• Core loss zones have not been sampled. These ‘gaps’ in
sampling have been assigned zero (0) grade for the purposes
of significant interval calculation.
• Reverse Circulation Drilling
• No Reverse Circulation drilling referred to or reported or
depicted in the release.
Logging • Whether core and chip samples
have been geologically and
geotechnically logged to a level of
detail to support appropriate
Mineral Resource estimation,
mining studies and metallurgical
studies.
• Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or
costean, channel, etc) photography.
• The total length and percentage of
the relevant intersections logged.
• A qualified geologist logs all drill core from this program.
• Logging captured, lithological, alteration, mineralisation,
structural and weathering information. Drill core also provided
geotechnical data based on physical counts of and physical
measurement of angles, hardness, roughness, of discontinuities
and visual assessment and description of structural features.
• Geological logging is generally qualitative in nature noting the
presence of various geological features and their intensities using
a numerical 1-5 scale. Quantitative features of the logging include
structural alpha and beta measurements captured as well as
magnetic susceptibility and bulk density data.
• Bulk density intervals were chosen to represent the range of
lithology/alteration and mineralisation within the hole. The test
can only be completed on competent core, so areas of broken or
clayey core are not represented in the bulk density
measurements,
KINGSTONRESOURCES.COM.AU | ASX: KSN 19
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
• “Dry weight” and “Wet weight” measurements were taken every 3
trays for pieces of core >= 10cm and bulk density calculated using
the Archimedes Principal:
• Bulk Density = (Sample Weight in Air) *(Fluid Density) / (Sample
Weight in Air) – Sample Weight in Water).
• The entire set of holes are fully logged and photographed.
• Diamond Core Drilling
• Recoveries were measured by the driller and/or offsider whilst
in the splits on the rack at the rig site using a handheld tape
measure. Recoveries were written in permanent marker on a
core block placed in the core tray. The Geologist and/or field
assistant measured the length of recovered core in the trays
when meter marking the core. Recovery is recorded as a
percentage per run.
• Drill core recoveries across the drill holes average >95% with 95-
100% recovery in mineralised zones.
• There is no observed relationship between sample recovery and
grade.
