  • RIEDEL RECEIVES ADDITIONAL HIGH-GRADE GOLD AND SILVER ASSAY RESULTS FROM SURFACE SAMPLING AT KINGMAN PROJECT, USA
    • FIRST KINGMAN RC DRILL RESULTS EXPECTED LATER THIS MONTH

Highlights:

  • Riedel receives further high-grade gold and silver assays up to 169 g/t gold and 377 g/t silver from geochemical surface sampling over the south-east of the Kingman Project in north-west Arizona, USA
  • Elevated zinc and lead samples also returned from the surface sampling program including assay results up to 7.1% lead and 6.5% zinc
  • First assay results from Riedel's recent RC drill program at Tintic anticipated later this month

Riedel Resources Limited (ASX:RIE, Riedel or the Company) is pleased to announce results of further surface sampling within the claim areas staked earlier this year at its Kingman Project in northeast Arizona, USA. Sampling achieved high-grade gold and silver assay results predominantly in the south-east part of the project area, including:

  • Sample 1671216 (South-East zone) - 67.6 g/t gold & 217 g/t silver
  • Sample 1671229 (South-Eastzone) - 28.9 g/t gold & 377 g/t silver (& 6.7% lead)
  • Sample 1671230 (South-East zone) - 169 g/t gold & 143g/t silver
  • Sample 1671232 (South-East zone) - 9.1 g/t gold & 198g/t silver (& 7.1% lead)
  • Sample 1671248 (Towne Extended) - 3.1 g/t gold & 83 g/t silver.

Riedel also received several additional elevated lead and zinc results from the surface sampling program, including:

  • Sample 1671234 (South-East zone) - 2.5% lead
  • Sample 1671236 (East Comanche) - 6.5% zinc
  • Sample 1671238 (Towne Extended) - 4.0% lead
  • Sample 1671257 (Water Tank) - 1.9% lead.

Riedel Chairman Michael Bohm stated: "We are pleased to achieve further high-grade gold and silver results from surface sampling at the Kingman Project. While surface sampling is a targeting tool and drilling is the final arbiter, it is nice to have these results to hand as they support the previous high- grade assay results achieved from surface sampling reported earlier this year1.

"We have a substantial land position in our Kingman Project with multiple mineralised targets in the south, in addition to our primary areas of focus at Tintic - where we recently wrapped-up an RC drilling program targeting extensions to the high grades achieved earlier this year2 - and the historic Merrimac/Arizona-Magma mine areas in the north of the project area.

"We keenly awaiting the first batch of assay results from the recent RC drilling that focussed on Tintic

  • which we still target to have to hand later this month as previously advised." Significant surface sampling results are shown in Figure 1 below.

Project Background

The Kingman Project is located in north-west Arizona, USA, approximately 90 minutes' drive from downtown Las Vegas and within 5km of a major highway (refer Map 1).

The project was mined predominantly for high-grade gold and silver from the 1880s until the early 1940s - which coincided with the outbreak of WWII. Following limited drilling near Tintic in the 1990s, 11 diamond holes were drilled on the property in late 2019 which intersected multiple zones of high- grade gold, silver and lead from shallow depths, confirming the extensive mineralisation potential of the area (refer Riedel ASX announcement dated 23 October 2020).

In April 2021, Riedel completed a 5,000m RC drill program over several historic mine areas on the property, including at Tintic, Merrimac, Arizona Magma and Jim's. This drilling returned numerous high- grade gold and silver assay results including 3.8m at 98.9g/t gold and 151g/t silver from 20.6m at Tintic (refer ASX announcement dated 23 March 2021). In addition, it confirmed a 1.8km long exploration target associated with the historic Jim's mine to host significant gold, silver, zinc and lead mineralisation as shallow as 1.5m below surface (refer Riedel's ASX announcement dated 19 April 2021).

The Kingman Project has seen minimal modern exploration. Riedel's RC drill program completed in April 2021 was its first at Kingman, where it is looking to acquire up to an 80% interest in via its December 2020 Agreement with Flagstaff Minerals Limited and Flagstaff Minerals (USA) Inc (refer Riedel's ASX announcement dated 23 October 2020).

This announcement was approved for release by the Board of Directors of Riedel.
