King Global to begin phase II drilling at Howard

Mr. Robert Dzisiak reports KING GLOBAL VENTURES MOBILIZES DRILLING FOR PHASE 2 DRILL PROGRAM SOUTH OF THE HISTORIC HOWARD COPPER MINE King Global Ventures Inc. has mobilized its phase II diamond drilling program at the Howard copper project, located in Yavapai county, Arizona. The program will comprise approximately 7,000 to 9,000 feet of diamond drilling across nine planned drill holes, focused on testing newly identified geophysical anomalies south of the historic Howard mine. Boart Longyear Ltd. has been contracted to execute the drilling program. The most significant intercepts from the phase I drill program at the Howard project were encountered in the southernmost holes, located beyond the extent of the historic mine workings (see press release dated Aug. 13, 2025). The phase I program also confirmed the presence of two distinct volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) mineralized horizons within the Spud Mountain formation: A copper-only remobilized zone, interpreted as structurally focused mineralization derived from a distal VMS source; A copper-gold-zinc-silver-rich, vent-proximal horizon, interpreted as a synvolcanic feeder system. These results suggest the potential for previously unrecognized, mineralized horizons at depth and along strike to the south. Targeting three untested gravity anomalies The phase II drill program will follow up on the results of phase I drilling and is designed to test three large, discrete gravity anomalies identified through inversion modelling completed by ALS Geoanalytics in Q3 2025. These anomalies trend north-northwest-south-southeast, parallel to regional stratigraphy, and lie within untested volcanic sedimentary units south of the phase I drill fence. Exploration program summary These results confirm the presence of stacked, laterally continuous sulphide-bearing horizons, with strong potential for expansion to the south along strike and downdip. Preparatory work to refine drill targets Prior to drilling, King Global completed an integrated exploration program to enhance geological understanding and optimize drill collar locations. This program included: An extended ground gravity survey, expanding the original coverage and improving resolution across the southern target area; A ground electromagnetic (EM) survey, aimed at detecting sulphide-related conductors coincident with modelled gravity anomalies; Detailed geological mapping (recently complete, report pending), providing lithological and structural control to guide interpretation; Systematic soil geochemistry, targeting surface expressions of concealed mineralization along projected VMS trends. Robert Dzisiak, chief executive officer of King, stated: "We are quite pleased to drill test the three large, untested gravity anomalies south of the Howard mine with the potential to expand the known mineralization. A lot of geological exploration and testing has gone into the planning of this program, and we greatly look forward to starting this next phase of drilling at our Black Canyon project." About King Global Ventures Inc. King Global Ventures is focused on the exploration of precious and base metals in North America. Black Canyon property in Arizona The Black Canyon project in Yavapai county, Arizona, comprises 213 contiguous concessions covering a total area of 4,000 acres, comprising 15 former-operating mines, including the past-producing Howard copper mine. The project is situated 100 kilometres (62 miles) north of Phoenix, Ariz. The Black Canyon project represents an early-stage exploration opportunity targeting copper-gold-silver-zinc VMS mineralization. The geology of Yavapai county, Arizona, is notable due to the presence of a variety of base and precious metal deposit types. The region has a significant history of exploration, discovery and mining operations, including base metals from mining operations such as Bagdad, Jerome and Cleopatra. The property is on trend and is approximately 13 kilometres (eight miles) northwest of Arizona Metals Corp. The Howard copper mine property is located on 78 acres of patented land. Discovered in the early 1920s, small-scale production and development focused on high-grade copper. Historical reports state that the main shaft was sunk to the 900-foot level but that no ore was mined below the 500-foot level. The Mikwam property The Mikwam gold property is located in Noseworthy township within the Abitibi greenstone belt of the Superior province in Northeastern Ontario. It lies along the Casa Berardi deformation zone, which hosts Detour Gold's Burntbush property. The Mikwam deposit is hosted within Timiskaming-aged polymictic conglomerate and greywacke units and contains disseminated and vein-hosted gold mineralization associated with quartz-carbonate veins and pyrite mineralization. A National Instrument 43-101 technical report prepared for Galena International Resources Ltd. by Caracle Creek International Consulting Inc., dated Dec. 8, 2016, disclosed a historical inferred mineral resource of 1.81 million tonnes grading 2.34 grams per tonne gold, containing 136,000 ounces of gold at a cut-off grade of 1.00 g/t Au. This estimate (announced by Galena in a Dec. 12, 2016, press release) is historical in nature, was not prepared for King Global Ventures and should not be considered current. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources and the issuer is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources.
