Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 28, 2024) - Kingsmen Resources Ltd. (TSXV: KNG) (OTCQB: KNGRF) ("Kingsmen" or the "Company") is pleased to update progress on the Las Coloradas project, located 30km from Hidalgo de Parral, Chihuahua, Mexico. Portions of the Soledad structure were mined by ASARCO (American Smelting and Refining Company), the U.S. based subsidiary of Grupo Mexico in the period 1944 to 1952.
Kingsmen has completed additional prospecting and sampling in a previously untested area of the project located northeast of the Soledad NW target area. No historic old workings were found in the area and overburden limits exposure (Figure 1). Silver values up to 153 g/t were obtained typically from 0.1 to 4.0 meter wide, NW-trending quartz-calcite structures, veins and breccias that parallel the Soledad and Soledad II structures, and their subsidiaries. In aggregate, the belt of NW-trending structures plus the Soledad and Soledad II structures is at least 1,500 meters wide and the presence of anomalous silver values in the major and minor structures demonstrates the prospectivity of the belt. Preliminary interpretation of ground magnetics indicates the presence of several important major structures as indicated by magnetic linears. Pathfinder element concentrations occurring in variable combinations in the areas of interest include Cu, Pb, Zn, As, Bi, Sb and Mo. The different combinations of pathfinder elements likely represent different stages or pulses of mineralization.
The belt of NW-trending structures intercepts a newly recognized 2,500 meter long zone of NE-trending structures near the area of highly anomalous silver values at the NW-end of the Soledad II structure. This complex structural zone is located in an area of strong magnetics possibly representing a buried intrusive with skarn potential.
Scott Emerson, President commented: We are continuing the field program with the aid of integration and interpretation of the ground magnetic data to better understand the structural controls on the silver mineralization which are presenting new areas for exploration which have not been explored before.

About Las Coloradas
The Las Coloradas Project ( 8.5 km2 -3.3 sq miles) represents a consolidation of a historic mining district which covers numerous silver-gold-lead-zinc-copper mines previously exploited by ASARCO (American Smelting and Refining Company), the U.S. based subsidiary of Grupo Mexico.
Las Coloradas is in the Parral mining district of the Central Mexican Silver Belt, and is located approximately 30 kilometers southeast of the city of Hidalgo de Parral and 40 kilometers east of the San Francisco de Oro and Santa Barbara mining districts where several old major mines are located, such as La Prieta, Veta Colorada, Palmilla, Esmeralda, San Francisco del Oro and Santa Barbara. As well, new major mining projects are currently being explored in the district; Cordero (Discovery Silver Corp.), 35 kms north of Parral, and La Cigarra (Kootenay Silver Inc.), 35 kms northwest of Parral.
