Underground and Surface Drilling
Underway at Mineral Hill
Highlights:
• Two drill rigs mobilised to Mineral Hill, marking the start of a new phase focusing
on discovery and resource growth.
• Underground drilling to target high-grade extensions at the Southern Ore Zone
and upgrade Inferred resources.
• Surface drilling to focus on near-mine discovery potential within EL1999 and
EL8334, initially testing the Bogong and Long Panel Prospects.
• High grade copper assays received from Long Panel rock chips.
• Induced polarisation (IP) survey undertaken over Long Panel prior to drilling.
Kingston Resources Limited (ASX: KSN) (‘Kingston’ or ‘The Company’) is pleased to
announce the recommencement of surface and underground drilling activities at its
100%-owned Mineral Hill Mine. The arrival of two drill rigs marks the commencement of a
targeted investment in resource definition and discovery drilling, supporting Kingston’s
growth strategy.
Underground Drilling Program – Southern Ore Zone (SOZ)
The underground diamond drill (DD) rig will first focus on the southern footwall
mineralisation, the main production area with significant extension potential.
Drilling will seek to define the extent of the near-mine discovery made in 2023 in surface
hole KSNDDH017, which returned 12.5m @ 2.1% Cu, 3.7% Pb, 4.5% Zn 0.11g/t Au and
17g/t Ag (see ASX announcement on 23 November 2023). Additionally, there are
numerous historical intersections peripheral to the main production zones that have
never been followed up. All of this mineralisation exists outside of the current Mineral
Resource Estimate for SOZ. Downhole electromagnetic geophysical surveys are planned
to test for potential lode structures away from the drill holes.

Surface Drilling – Bogong and Long Panel Prospects
The surface reverse circulation (RC) rig will initially target the Bogong Prospect, located
just north of the Mineral Hill Mining Lease only 1km from the Pearse North pit.
A total of 15 RC holes are planned to test the coincident geochemical and near-surface
Induced Polarisation (IP) anomalies over the northern part of the prospect reinforced by
multiple anomalous intercepts in historical drilling. RC drilling is expected to be followed
up with downhole electromagnetic geophysical tools.
Following Bogong, six RC drill holes will be completed (1620m) at the Long Panel Prospect
to test conicident IP, gravity and magnetic anomalies – key indications of near-surface
mineralisation.
Recent rock chip samples add additional weight of evidence to sub-surface
mineralisation at Long Panel. High grade copper assays have been received from oxidized
grab samples taken from mullock dumps adjacent to historical workings.

IP and Gravity Survey at the Long Panel Prospect
Kingston has commenced an IP survey over the southern end of the Long Panel
prospect and will subsequently move to Yellow Mountain North. IP data was previously
collected over the southern end of the Long Panel prospect, but the data is outdated,
and newer collection technologies will improve targeting.
IP is an electrical geophysical technique highly suited for identifying near-surface
sulphide mineralisation. Gravity gradients identified in gravity surveys typically occur
over known mineral deposits at Mineral Hill and so this technique is being extended to
other deposits along the regional trend.

Kingston Resources Managing Director and CEO, Andrew Corbett said:
“The recommencement of underground and surface drilling at Mineral Hill marks an
exciting next step in Kingston’s growth strategy. Our focus is squarely on expanding the
known resource base while testing highly prospective near-mine and regional targets.
KINGSTONRESOURCES.COM.AU | ASX: KSN 6
The Southern Ore Zone continues to demonstrate excellent potential for further high-
grade extensions, and with the addition of surface programs at Bogong and Long Panel,
we are confident in the opportunity to deliver meaningful resource growth.
These programs are designed not only to increase the scale of Mineral Hill’s operations
but to extend mine life and enhance the project’s long-term value for shareholders. The
arrival of two rigs on site underscores our commitment to unlocking the full potential of
Mineral Hill as a cornerstone asset in Kingston’s portfolio.”
Current Activities
• Open pit gold and silver production
• Underground diamond drilling at the Southern Ore Zone.
• Induced Polarisation geophysics over the southern end of Long Panel and at Yellow
Mountain North.
• Surface RC drilling at the Bogong Prospect and Long Panel.
• Underground development activities scheduled for the December quarter 2025.
This program represents a major milestone in Kingston’s ongoing transformation of
Mineral Hill into a long-life producing asset with material scale. By advancing both
resource definition and regional exploration, the Company is well positioned to deliver
continued growth in resource inventory, mine life, and shareholder value.

Geology • Deposit type, geological
setting and style of
mineralisation.
Mineral Hill is located on the southern and eastern margin of the Cobar
Basin. Exploration tenements capture a NW trending corridor of prospective
units that have been strongly deformed by compression and extension at
the basin margin, coincident with the major regional structural feature
called the Gilmore Suture. This suture is broadly the boundary between
Siluro Devonian rocks to the west and Ordovician age rocks to the east.
Structures that make up the Gilmore suture have sliced up and juxtaposed
lithological units of different ages and origins and are an important feature
in providing pathways for mineralising fluids. Later reactivation has also
deformed, dismembered, and offset mineralisation and ore bodies.
• EL 1999 and EL 8334 cover a NW-trending corridor - the Canbelego –
Mineral Hill Belt.
• The licenses host Ordovician Girilambone Group overlain by Early
Devonian rocks and Quaternary cover.
• The oldest rocks in the area are the Cambro-Ordovician Girilambone
Groups which represent a sequence of metasediments and mafic
volcanics. This stratigraphic unit is characterised by a high response in the
magnetic data.
• The Girilambone Group is overlain by the Mineral Hill Volcanics – a series
of pyroclastic flows (ignimbrites, vitric and lapilli tuffs) with intercalated
sediments of Silurian – Lower Devonian age.
• The Mineral Hill Volcanics are overlain by units of the Majuba Volcanics
(feldspar +/- quartz phyric, locally flow-banded rhyolitic to dacitic lavas),
Devonian Talingaboolba Formation (a monotonous sequence of
sandstones, siltstones and conglomerates which either unconformably
overlie the Mineral Hill Volcanics or are over-thrust over the volcanics) and
Myamley Sandstone.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
• Sedimentary and volcanic units have been intruded by Yellow Mountain
Granite – a foliated, medium-grained, equigranular and porphyritic
biotite granite
The Cobar Basin hosts a multitude of deposit styles that have the potential
to occur within the tenement package.
Mineral Hill provides a base line mineral system model for exploration in the
district. More general Cobar style (Zn-Pg-Ag) volcanic hosted massive
sulphides, Tritton style Cu-Ag-Au rich mineralisation, generic orogenic Au
mineral systems models, and carbonate replacement provide alternate
target types across EL8334 and EL1999.
Mineral Hill Style Mineralisation
Mineral Hill comprises polymetallic (Cu-Au to Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag-Au) vein and
breccia, and shear hosted Au-Ag-Sb systems hosted entirely by the Late
Silurian to Early Devonian Mineral Hill Volcanics, a pile of proximal rhyolitic
volcaniclastic rocks with minor reworked volcaniclastic sedimentary rocks.
The polymetallic mineralisation is structurally controlled and comprises
lodes centred on hydrothermal breccia zones and veins within and adjacent
to numerous faults, surrounded by a halo of quartz-sulphide vein stockwork
mineralisation.
Mineral Hill is made up of multiple separate mineralised structures that are
characterised by specific economic mineral assemblages. Structures are
broadly classified as Cu-Au or base metal dominant.
• Jacks Hut trend (Ashes & Jacks Hut) is Cu-Au dominant in the north,
and Pb-Zn dominant at Iodide in the south. Mineralised structures
are not continuous, but the mineral system is contiguous.
• Eastern Ore Zone is Cu-Au with some zones of very high-grade Au
associated with veins with banded epithermal textures.
KINGSTONRESOURCES.COM.AU | ASX: KSN 19
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
• Southern Ore Zone is a series of steep dipping structures that are
anastomosing with link structures within a broader structural zone.
Lodes on the west and at depth are Cu-Au dominant, with eastern
loads being Pb-Zu +/-Cu-Au dominant. SOZ has a highly complex
mineralisation history and paragenesis.
• Red terror comprised Cu-Au lodes that have been thrust up and
under Parker Hill Cu-Pb lodes that extend into the near surface Oxide
profile.
•
Mineral Hill ‘Main Zone’ is classified as Volcanic hosted polymetallic vein and
breccia systems with mineralised veins with colloform banded epithermal
type textures.
Pearse deposits are spatially separated from MH Main Zone and are
classified as shear hosted orogenic Au-Ag-Sb deposits. Mineralisation is
associated with pyrite-arsenopyrite within variably Qz-Se altered structures.
All Siluro Devonian and Ordovician age units within the tenement package
are prospective for mineralisation.
