Executive Summary

  • King Global Ventures Inc. released results from a completed 9,000-foot, eight-hole diamond drill program at its Silver Cord project in Yavapai County, Arizona.
  • The program successfully intersected multiple high-grade polymetallic intervals, confirming a polyphase Ag-Pb-Zn-Sb (silver-lead-zinc-antimony) vein system within the Spud Mountain formation.
  • Significant high-grade silver intersections were reported in holes SC-25-004 and SC-25-007, with mineralization remaining open along strike and at depth, prompting plans for Phase 2 drilling in Q1 2026.

Key Details

  • Program Overview:
    • Total footage: 9,000 feet.
    • Number of holes: 8 (SC-25-001 through SC-25-007).
    • Location: Silver Cord project, Yavapai County, Arizona.
    • Objective: Test induced polarization (IP) anomalies beneath the historic Silver Cord mine and transect the host Spud Mountain formation for VMS-related mineralization.
  • Significant Intersections:
    • Hole SC-25-004: Intersected a 9.0 ft interval grading 619.6 g/t Ag (21.8 oz/t), including a 1.5 ft interval grading 1,390 g/t Ag (49 oz/t) and 2.2 g/t Au, with strong Pb, Zn, and Sb support.
    • Hole SC-25-007: Intersected a 1.0 ft interval grading 625 g/t Ag, 1.0% Pb, and 1,175.0 g/t Sb.
    • Holes SC-25-005 & SC-25-006: Returned Zn-Pb-Cu-rich stringer-style mineralization.
  • Geological Interpretations:
    • Confirmed presence of a polyphase Ag-Pb-Zn-Sb vein system hosted within Spud Mountain stratigraphy.
    • IP anomaly beneath Silver Cord interpreted as intense siliceous alteration and anomalous copper, consistent with intrusive-related hydrothermal activity.
    • Metal zonation observed: Early Zn-Pb-Cu veinlets transition upward into broader Ag-Pb-Zn veins, overprinted by Sb-rich sulphosalt assemblages.
    • Alteration footprint defined: Zonation from chlorite-carbonate stringer alteration at depth/footwall to sericite-sulphosalt vein cores associated with higher-grade Ag-Pb-Sb intervals.
  • Future Plans:
    • Phase 2 drilling planned for Q1 2026.
    • Targets include extensions of high-grade intervals and testing the structural corridor along strike and to depth.
  • Technical Verification:
    • Assays certified by ALS Geochemistry (ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited).
    • Qualified Person: Andrew Lee Smith, PGeo, ICDD.
    • Mineralization remains open along strike and at depth; continuity and geometry not yet established.

Notable Quotes

  • "The Silver Cord drill program has delivered very encouraging results at this early stage of exploration. Several holes have returned strong polymetallic intervals, and mineralization remains open in multiple directions. These results continue to build our confidence in the exploration potential of the Silver Cord corridor, and we look forward to advancing the next phase of drilling to better understand the geometry and continuity of the mineralized zones." — Robert Dzisiak, CEO
