(“\n \n K92\n \n ” or the “\n \n Company\n \n ”) (TSX\n \n : KNT;\n \n OTCQX\n \n : KNTNF)\n \n is pleased to announce its fourth set of drilling results consisting of 13 holes for total results of 43 holes released to date from its maiden surface diamond drill program at Arakompa, located approximately 4.5 km from the Kainantu Gold Mine Process Plant in Papua New Guinea. K92’s maiden drill program at Arakompa represents the first drilling on the target in 32 years, with limited historic drilling completed, comprising 18 holes totaling 1.8 km of mostly shallow drilling.\n \n\n\n\n Two significant high-grade sub-parallel veins confirmed, named AR1 and AR2 (See Figures 5 and 6 for Long Sections). Drilling to date has defined AR1 and AR2 to a depth of over 500 metres and at significant strike lengths of approximately 675 and 775 metres, respectively. Both veins are open in multiple directions, recording a substantial average true thickness from drilling to date of 3.14 metres for AR1 and 2.94 metres for AR2, and a strong high-grade hit-rate at +5 g/t AuEq of 50% for AR1 and 42% for AR2, and +10g/t AuEq of 28% for AR1 and 21% for AR2. The latest drilling results recorded multiple high-grade intersections, including:\n \n\n\n\n AR1 Vein:\n \n\n\n KARDD0033:\n \n 11.10 m at 5.93 g/t AuEq\n \n (5.37 g/t Au, 8 g/t Ag, 0.29% Cu), including\n \n\n 3.30 m at 11.15 g/t AuEq\n \n (10.92 g/t Au, 3 g/t Ag, 0.12% Cu)\n \n\n KARDD0035\n \n : 11.10 m at 4.93 g/t AuEq\n \n (4.50 g/t Au, 10 g/t Ag, 0.19% Cu), including\n \n\n 1.70 m at 13.04 g/t AuEq\n \n (12.55 g/t Au, 15 g/t Ag, 0.19% Cu)\n \n\n KARDD0042:\n \n 2.60 m at 11.91 g/t AuEq\n \n (9.06 g/t Au, 41 g/t Ag, 1.48% Cu)\n \n\n KARDD0037:\n \n 9.60 m at 3.60 g/t AuEq\n \n (2.69 g/t Au, 11 g/t Ag, 0.49% Cu), including\n \n\n 1.30\n \n\n m at 10.49 g/t AuEq\n \n (7.92 g/t Au, 24 g/t Ag, 1.46 % Cu)\n \n\n KARDD0043:\n \n 5.10 m at 5.67 g/t AuEq\n \n (5.38 g/t Au, 13 g/t Ag, 0.07% Cu)\n \n\n KARDD0039:\n \n 2.30 m at 9.00 g/t AuEq\n \n (7.55 g/t Au, 23 g/t Ag, 0.74% Cu)\n \n\n KARDD...
