(TSXV:KGS)(FSE:47A1) (\"Kingman\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report on the first underground sampling results from the Rosebud Mine shaft and 100ft drift.The Mohave Project (the \"Project\") is located in the Music Mountains in Mohave County, Arizona and is comprised of 20 lode claims which are inclusive of the past producing Rosebud Mine (the \"Rosebud\"). High grade gold and silver veins were discovered in the area in the 1880's and were mined mainly in the late 20's and 30's. Underground development on the Rosebud property included a 400-foot shaft and approximately 2,500 feet of drifts, raises and crosscuts.In early spring 2020, Burgex Mining Consultants (\"Burgex\") were contracted to determine the accessibility, if any, of the main production shaft at the Rosebud Mine. Burgex used ropes and ladders to assess the safety and stability of the shaft and were able to lower themselves down to the 100-foot level of the abandoned mine. The conditions were not optimal for spending long periods of time in the mine, but they were able to collect 17 rock samples from the 100-foot level. Below the 100ft level the shaft was blocked by debris and garbage, so no attempt was made to access the lower portions of the mine during this reconnaissance program. Video and photo tours available on company website at https://kingmanminerals.com/projects/mohave-project/first-underground-program/The samples that Burgex collected were sent to ALS Laboratories in Reno, Nevada and were analyzed using the ALS method ME-GRA21 for gold and silver. This method is a fire assay method for optimal precious metal recovery.Kingman Minerals Sampling Results (Burgex, 2020) Sample No.Sample TypeInterval (m)Au (g/t)Ag (g/t) RB100-1Grab-0.1312 RB100-2Grab-0.4718 RB100-3Chip0.384.85116 RB100-4Chip0.46252341 RB100-5Chip0.460.0711 RB100-6Chip0.25.57230 RB100-7Chip0.21.5218 RB100-8Chip0.150.176 RB100-9Chip0.30.50<5 RB100-10Chip0.20.3230 RB100-11Grab-0.106 RB100-12Chip0.30.2317 RB100-13Chip0.610.4318 RB100-14Chip0.460.5326 RB100-15Chip0.310.2710 RB100-16Chip0.310.2613 RB100-17Chip0.315.4343 Average 16.0557.2 Table 1 - Results from 1...
