🧵This is another thread you will want to bookmark if you are interested in porphyry deposits in British Columbia.
I have been working away in the background on putting together a fairly simple pitch on where an explorer (and an investor) should be looking for Porphyry Cu-Au deposits in British Columbia.
The following thread will detail the different ages of mineralization, the different camps in British Columbia, and highlight where one should be looking to find the next monster deposit.
Obviously I am threading in a pitch for Kingfisher as we will be starting a very exciting drill program in the near future and we are currently financing.
Note that the data used in these tables and calculations is based on the USGS porphyry summary of porphyry prospectively for British Columbia (with some changes made for more recent updates to resources - using 43-101 technical reports).
The favorable tracts are accurate in my opinion although they misclassify our Mary deposit (likely because they don't have the unpublished age dating for it).

This Copper-Gold Explorer Is Two Weeks From Beginning One Of The Most Anticipated Drill Programs In North America https://t.co/1HBdehwACX
Kingfisher Metals (TSX-V:KFR, OTC:KGFMF) enters the summer 2026 field season embarking on one of the most widely anticipated drill programs in all of North America: a fully funded, 15,000-meter diamond drill campaign designed to follow up on the newly recognized Hank copper-gold porphyry discovery while testing multiple additional porphyry targets across the broader HWY 37 Project. June 15th is the mobilization date for the first drill rig, but the camp crew is already on site getting everything ready for a busy exploration season that will continue into October. $KFR.V @Kingfisher_KFR@DPGEO

$KFR.V sits atop the sector, setting a very high bar for the quality of graphics and density of content 💪
A few of my favorite slides...
✅ Incredible pipeline of copper/gold targets
✅ Hank Cu-Au Porphyry Target dwarfs other world class B.C. porphyries
✅ Hank geophysical signature just does it for me....
✅ Hole HW-25-011 was a near miss, but still delivered decent/increasing copper-gold grades at the bottom of the hole
There is a lot of room to deliver a massive copper-gold porphyry discovery at Hank in 2026, and the known epithermal gold mineralization (DDH-88-11 returned 2.02 g/t gold over 58 meters) that sits at surface above the conceptual Hank Cu-Au Porphyry makes this deeper target much more compelling.
And Hank is just one of MANY high-priority targets at HWY 37!
I am very bullish, and very long on KFR shares📈
Nothing is a sure thing in exploration, not even close. Expect disappointment, but dream of jewelry boxes 💎💍🪙
Trafigura has moved to withdraw hundreds of millions of dollars of copper from London Metal Exchange warehouses as lucrative trading opportunities emerge in the US and China, according to people familiar with the matter. https://t.co/jeYUNRL7F0
Agreed. I was recently chatting with a shareholder of ours that worked in the Golden Triangle for decades (including on our projects) and he said he wished investors understood the opportunity of having a mountain-capable team like ours on this prospective of a project.
There aren’t a lot of teams out there than can actually unlock projects in terrain like this and it leaves a lot of opportunities for teams that can do the difficult work.
When hiring young geos the most important thing for us after motivation is mountain-capability. Ie do you backcountry ski, mountain bike, climb, hike, ect… in your spare time…live in a mountain town like Whistler? You can learn everything else with good mentors like Gayle and Stephanie. Can’t train steady legs that well.
You go to the rocks, the rocks don't come to you. ⛰️
In the clip below, @stephsykora, porphyry expert, shares her passion for exploration and explains how hands-on fieldwork at the HWY 37 Project is helping the $KFR.V team unlock a deeper geological understanding and what may lie under the covered areas of the district-scale targets across the property.

@Dave_Eby You are right that it is time to stop rewarding bad behaviour. We need to stop paying your salary and you need to go. Hard working people of this province are sick and tired of paying for your woke dumpster fire government to put us further into debt.
Working in the Golden Triangle affords us amazing access to skilled contractors such as P&R. The companies we use also have Indigenous ownership (Tahltan) which strengthens our stakeholder relationships.
It might look expensive drilling with helicopters in the mountains but when you factor in the benefits of the critical metal charity flow through premiums that we take advantage of, drilling here really isn't any more expensive than in Nevada, Idaho, or Arizona.
Take a conservative (high) estimate of $1000 per meter, divide by 1.5 (we raised at 1.6 delta), and then divide by a conservative USD/CAD exchange rate of 1.3. You get ~$500m USD per meter.
At $KFR.V, pad builders are essential to the Company's exploration success. They are crucial to constructing safe, precise drill sites in challenging terrain so crews can do their work efficiently and effectively.
Kevin Basil of P&R Exploration shares what it takes, from helicopter-supported builds to adapting every pad to unique conditions, and why, after 20 years, the challenge still motivates him.

@tom_woolrych@Pete__Panda@JrMiningNetwork I imagine you doing this while on your bike and the faster you pedal the faster the output (and the faster you get to the pub).
This is the first of many videos that will be coming out over the coming weeks. Lots of insight into how we explore at $kfr.v and how opportunties abound on our Golden Triangle projects.
Some great imagery looking down on the Hank alteration system here too. It helps frame just how big this system is.
Over the past two years, $KFR.V was fortunate enough to host the BC Geological Survey (BCGS) at our HWY 37 Project, where they conducted detailed studies on various intrusive rocks as part of a broader regional initiative.
Their study included geochronology (dating of rocks), which, when coupled with our internal datasets, has provided a much clearer picture of the geological history of the project.
We look forward to continued collaboration with the BCGS as we further advance exploration in this underexplored region of BC's Golden Triangle.

Would you do an article on the repeated dumping of intact salmon carcasses in Brackendale? It’s a wide known neighborhood issue that has been reported to conservation officers and the DFO multiple times (they have done nothing - no surprise) and this continues to occur. Talk about a bear attractant!
Kingfisher Metals Confirms Early Jurassic Porphyry Mineralization Across Hank-Mary District, a Fertile Window Between Mitchell Cu-Au and Brucejack Au-Ag Deposits
Key Highlights:
🔵Similar age as Mitchell Cu-Au porphyry deposit: Porphyry mineralization at Hank, Williams & Mary (~190-186 Ma) overlaps with the Mitchell deposit (~196-189 Ma).
🔵Similar timing to Brucejack Au-Ag epithermal deposit: Epithermal gold mineralization at Hank (~188-184 Ma) ties closely with the Brucejack deposit (~184-183 Ma).
🔵One large system: Ages from Hank, Mary, and Williams all fall within the same range, suggesting a single, large mineralizing system that defines the district.
🔵Geological age as a fertility indicator: These ages match the Early Jurassic Texas Creek intrusive suite of rocks, known for hosting major porphyry deposits in the Golden Triangle. $KFR.V @Kingfisher_KFR
We just announced geochronological data (lab study to determine the age of rocks and mineralization) on our Hank-Mary District.
In meetings I have regularly said how we have “district-scale” targets in our pipeline and that the Hank-Mary area is in fact a district. This is proof.
These dates slot us in right between Mitchell (60m oz + 40m oz at Mitchell E) and Brucejack. If I had to pick a time period for an emerging district in BC this would be top of the list. This significantly elevates the 12km long district and gives us further confidence that there are multiple discoveries to be made.

There is a type of exploration company that shows up at every mining conference with a slide that is basically just a nice-looking map of many colored polygons on it.
District-scale land position.
Regional scale potential.
Thousands of hectares.
Multiple target types.
And that potential is great ... sometimes.
Some other times (read: more often), it's just a pain.
The explorecos that make the most of large land packages are almost always the ones that treat them as a portfolio that they acquired on accretive terms and with specific reasoning.
They have a strategic plan for the district/belt.
They have a ranking system.
They have a drop threshold.
They concentrate their best technical resources on their best ideas, and they do not confuse the map area with the quality of the geological thesis underneath it.
It's your job as a speculator to figure out which companies are served well by a large package, and which ones are just throwing catchphrases at you.
Ask & dig.
I did, in my interview with @DPGEO of @Kingfisher_KFR $KFR.V.
His answer is in the clip below.
The full interview is on YT and wherever you get your podcasts.
The ingredients of a great copper-gold porphyry target in the Golden Triangle:
🟡Near-surface and drill ready
🟡500m x 2,000m chargeability anomaly
🟡Supported by MVI, DC resistivity, and MMT geophysics (moderate resistivity porphyry core target with mushroom-shaped, low-resistivity conductive cap)
🟡Advanced argillic & QSP (quartz-sericite-pyrite) alteration, dickite, vuggy silica, and abundant pyrite
🟡Covered by till/landslide material, hiding the core system
🟡Just 6 kilometers from highway and power
Introducing the Turquoise Target at @Kingfisher_KFR's HWY 37 Project. $KFR.V
Yet another incredible opportunity for $kfr.v shareholders. Forrest Kerr has extensive copper-gold anomalies as well as high grade intercepts up to 90 g/t Au over 4m.
The project has next to no IP, very limited mag or em coverage, no LiDAR, ect…. It’s never been systematically explored and it sits on one of the major Golden Triangle structures with intrusions dated the same age as the Sulphurets district (seabridge/tudor gold/newmont-brucejack).
We are currently planning programs for this summer which will materially advance the understanding of this highly prospective project.
⛰️ Forrest Kerr Project Spotlight 🔦
The Forrest Kerr Project is highly prospective for both high-grade gold-silver mineralization as well as porphyry copper-gold mineralization.
