King Global Ventures Inc. has mobilized a Phase 2 diamond drilling program at its Silver Cord Project located north of Phoenix, Arizona. The program, contracted to Boart Longyear, will consist of six holes from two drill pads for up to 6,000 feet of drilling. This expansion follows a successful Phase 1 program that confirmed a polyphase silver-lead-zinc-antimony vein system and intersected a high-grade interval assaying 21.8 ounces per tonne silver, 1.0 g/t gold, and significant base metals.
The Phase 2 work aims to extend the strike length and prove continuity of grade for two distinct polymetallic intervals identified in the initial drilling. CEO Robert Dzisiak stated the company is excited by the success of the initial drilling and the potential for expansion. The project is situated within the Spud Mountain stratigraphy, and the earlier program also provided insight into the nature of an induced polarization (IP) geophysical anomaly beneath the Silver Cord target.
The scientific and technical information for the release was reviewed and approved by independent Qualified Person Andrew Lee Smith, P.Geo., ICD.D, in accordance with National Instrument 43-101. His verification included a comprehensive review of all analytical data, geological logs, and QA/QC protocols, confirming that assay results from the independent laboratory ALS Geochemistry are reliable. The geological interpretations of structural controls and multiple mineralization phases are consistent with the observed data.
King Global's exploration portfolio also includes the Black Canyon Project in Yavapai County, Arizona, an early-stage opportunity targeting copper-gold-silver-zinc VMS mineralization on trend with other known deposits. The region has a significant history of mining operations like Bagdad and Jerome. Additional information about the company can be viewed at its website www.kingglobal.gold or on www.sedarplus.ca.
For business and technology leaders monitoring resource and materials sectors, this development highlights ongoing exploration in established mining jurisdictions leveraging modern techniques. The high-grade intercept, particularly the exceptional silver values, underscores the potential for discovering new, high-value polymetallic deposits. Successful expansion of the mineralization could have implications for regional supply chains for critical and precious metals, attracting further investment and development activity in Arizona's mining sector. The rigorous, independent verification of data underscores the importance of technical due diligence in early-stage resource ventures, a key consideration for investors evaluating such opportunities.
