[{"type":"text","content":"Kingfisher Commences Diamond Drilling Program at Goldrange ProjectVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 14, 2022 / Kingfisher Metals Corp. (TSX-V:KFR) (FSE:970) (OTCQB:KGFMF) (\"Kingfisher\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the commencement of diamond drilling at the 100% owned 511 km2 Goldrange Project. Goldrange is located approximately 25 km south of the town of Tatla Lake in the Chilcotin region of Southwest British Columbia.HighlightsAn expanded and fully funded program of up to 10,000 m of diamond drilling.Step out drilling of near-surface breccia targets in the Cloud Drifter Zone that graded up to 73.4 g/t Au over 1 m and 6.9 g/t Au over 9 m in the Pad 400 target area.First-ever drilling of robust multi-element geochemical anomalies at the Cloud Drifter Zone on exploration trend with high-grade Au intercepts from 2021.Day Trip, Langara, and Standard zones will see first-ever diamond drill holes contingent upon positive RAB drill results.Dustin Perry, CEO states \"Our second drill program will begin at the Cloud Drifter Zone and see shallow target follow-up drilling as well as the very first drill tests of two exciting gold targets within the zone. Drill results from last year identified high-grade gold along these easterly and north-easterly exploration trends in the lower (northern) mountain. This year, our drill targeting will focus on delineating feeder structures in the lower mountain responsible for widespread gold anomalism intercepted in the upper (southern) Cloud Drifter drill holes. Additionally, we are allocating about a third of our program to follow up on results at Day Trip, Langara, and Standard zones from our ongoing RAB drill program.\"Figure 1. Diamond Drilling Target AreasOverviewLast year Kingfisher drill tested approximately 10% of the Cloud Drifter Trend in the first-ever drill program on the 511 km2 project. The 2021 drill results indicated the presence of a large hydrothermal system with broad gold anomalism throughout and multiple high-grade intervals discovered by drilling in areas of forest cover.Geological interpretations identify four target types at Cloud Drifter: 1) high-grade gold in steep shears, such as 73.40 g/t Au over 1 m in hole GR22-014; 2) complex structural zones and associated high-grade feeder breccia bodies, such as 6.88 g/t over 9 m in hole GR22-007; 3) quartz diorite host...
