(“K92” or the “Company”) (TSX: KNT; OTCQX: KNTNF) is pleased to announce its latest high-grade results from the ongoing surface and underground diamond drilling of the Kora, Kora South, Judd and Judd South deposits in addition to the Kora and Judd Northern Deeps targets at the Kainantu Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea. Multiple dilatant zones intersected at Kora’s K2 Vein, including a new dilatant zone discovered outside of the Kora resource estimate at Kora South and the extension of an existing dilatant zone down-dip: Kora South new dilatant zone intercepts: KUDD0053: 78.50 m at 27.03 g/t gold equivalent (“AuEq”)(2) (24.94 g/t Au, 116 g/t Ag, 0.38% Cu) KUDD0056: 34.00 m at 8.14 g/t AuEq (5.45 g/t Au, 130 g/t Ag, 0.65% Cu) Known Dilatant zone extended down-dip: KUDD0058: 51.00 m at 7.04 g/t AuEq (0.82 g/t Au, 48 g/t Ag, 3.58% Cu) High-grade zones within Kora's K1 and K2 Veins extended in multiple directions, and at higher grades in multiple areas than the resource model, including: K1 Vein high-grade extension up-dip from main underground mining area: KMDD0590: 3.26 m at 86.92 g/t AuEq (86.40 g/t Au, 10 g/t Ag, 0.25% Cu) KMDD0634: 12.09 m at 18.90 g/t AuEq (15.45 g/t Au, 34 g/t Ag, 1.92% Cu) KMDD0591: 3.90 m at 49.78 g/t AuEq (49.14 g/t Au, 8 g/t Ag, 0.34% Cu) KMDD0596: 8.74 m at 25.91 g/t AuEq (24.21 g/t Au, 14 g/t Ag, 0.97% Cu) KMDD0635: 11.15 m at 16.27 g/t AuEq (8.40 g/t Au, 88 g/t Ag, 4.30% Cu) KMDD0592: 5.50 m at 22.16 g/t AuEq (21.18 g/t Au, 15 g/t Ag, 0.50% Cu) KMDD0617: 2.25 m at 32.64 g/t AuEq (27.85 g/t Au, 8 g/t Ag, 2.99% Cu) K2 Vein high-grade extension up-dip from main underground mining area: KMDD0662: 9.00 m at 40.36 g/t AuEq (32.47 g/t Au, 63 g/t Ag, 4.52% Cu) KMDD0657: 6.05 m at 47.27 g/t AuEq (38.03 g/t Au, 94 g/t Ag, 5.13% Cu) KMDD0624: 5.60 m at 23.16 g/t AuEq (14.31 g/t Au, 30 g/t Ag, 5.40% Cu) KMDD0617: 5.10 m at 21.46 g/t AuEq (20.06 g/t Au, 11 g/t Ag, 0.80% Cu) Step-out drilling to the south, outside of the current resource, at the K2 vein intersected multiple high-grade gold and high-grade copper intersections: KMDD0654A: 17.45 m at 23.79 g/t AuEq (16.77 g/t Au, 72 g/t Ag, 3.89% Cu) KMDD0632: 9.30 m at 15.30 g/t AuEq (7.87 g/t Au, 105 g/t Ag, 3.88% Cu) Judd’s J1 Vein saw an extension of the high-grade zone up-dip and in multipl...
