Kesselrun Resources Reports Surface Sample Results and New Zone

Kesselrun Resources Ltd. (TSXV: KES) (OTCQB: KSSRF) ("Kesselrun" or the "Company") is pleased to announce sampling results and a new interpretation from the southwest extent of the McKellar mineralization trend.

Highlights:

  • New Interpretation of McKellar West Area
  • Two separate parallel zones, McKellar West and Minoletti, increase exploration potential
  • Confirmation of McKellar West Mineralization trend to the west property boundary

The results returned from the McKellar West target area positively identified the strike extent of the McKellar West zone extending it to the far west property boundary as well as identifying a new parallel zone. There is now approximately 1400 metres of untested strike extent of the McKellar West zone as well as numerous kilometres of potential on the parallel Minoletti zone. With this new information the Kesselrun team will also be looking at the potential for parallel zones elsewhere on the property.

Michael Thompson, P.Geo., President and CEO of the Company, commented, "The detailed UAV magnetic survey and follow up boots on the ground has enabled the Kesselrun team to re-interpret the far western extents of the Huronian Gold Trend. What had previously been interpreted as one zone, over 50 years ago, has now been confirmed as two separate zones. This parallel zone, and the possibility of other similar zones throughout the property, increases the exploration potential immensely. This is especially significant considering Goldshore's resource expansion targets on parallel zones to their main mineralization"

Summary of 2024 Huronian Work Campaign

Multiple crews were mobilized to the Huronian project during the summer and fall of 2024 to execute a UAV based magnetic survey as well as follow up mapping and sampling on selected targets, among which were those derived from the magnetic survey.

The UAV MAG survey was performed over the McKellar West, Huronian North, Span North, Span South and Moss South target areas. Follow up mapping and sampling was done on McKellar West, Span South and Moss South.

2025 Exploration Plan

With the new results from the 2024 summer and fall programs, Kesselrun plans to do further follow up work on selected target areas to get them drill ready in anticipation of initiating a drill program later in 2025.

About the Huronian Gold Project

The 100% owned Huronian Gold Project hosts the past producing Huronian Mine, Northwestern Ontario's first gold mine with an historic resource estimate of 44,592 oz Au at an average grade of 15.3 g/t Au in the indicated category and 501,377 oz Au at an average grade of 14.4 g/t Au in the inferred category. The resource estimate presented for the Huronian Project is historic in nature. Kesselrun Resources' qualified person has not completed sufficient work to confirm the results of the historical resource. Kesselrun Resources does not treat this as a current mineral resource but considers it relevant as a guide to future exploration and includes it for reference purposes only. The historic resource was estimated by Minescape Exploration Inc. in 1998. Further drilling will be required by Kesselrun to verify the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.

As well, the Huronian Gold Project hosts the same lithological package of rocks, as interpreted from both Government of Ontario and Kesselrun mapping, compilation and modelling, on strike from the adjacent Moss Gold Project with an NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate of 1.23M oz Au at an average grade of 1.22 g/t Au in the indicated category and 4.92M oz Au at an average grade of 1.09 g/t Au in the inferred category(1). Mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on Kesselrun's property.
