Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 8, 2026) - Kingsmen Resources Ltd. (TSXV: KNG) (OTCQB: KNGRF) (FSE: TUY) ("Kingsmen" or the "Company") is pleased to report assays from from three diamond drill holes at its Las Coloradas silver-gold project, Chihuahua, Mexico.

Key Results:

Drillhole LC-25-012 is the first hole testing the +1 km long Soledad II vein/structure. The hole was drilled approximately 1.5 km northwest of the Soledad discovery (which returned 1.45 m @ 1,028 g/t AgEq; reported September 24, 2025). Highlights include:

• 4.8 m @ 90 g/t AgEq (52.6 g/t Ag) from 56.7 m, including:
  • 1.3 m @ 270 g/t AgEq (143 g/t Ag & 0.72 g/t Au) from 56.7 m, including:

  • 0.8 m @ 360 g/t AgEq (220 g/t Ag & 0.223 g/t Au) from 57.2 m

Drillhole LC-25-009 is a 70 m step-out from discovery hole LC-25-008 (which returned 1.6 m @ 931 g/t AgEq and 1.28 g/t Au). Results confirm:

• Extension of LC-25-008 mineralization intersected, demonstrating continuity 70 m along strike

• Structure remains open and undrilled for 200 m to the south

President & CEO, Scott Emerson, commented: "These results demonstrate two critical factors for any discovery: grade and scale.

"On grade, hole LC-25-012 returned 270 g/t silver equivalent over 1.3 m in the first hole ever drilled on the Soledad II vein/structure (see Table 1) This follows our Soledad discovery intercept of 1,028 g/t silver equivalent over 1.45 m (see NR September 24, 2025). We are consistently intersecting high-grade mineralization across multiple structures.

"On scale, we have now confirmed significant mineralization in three separate structures-Soledad, Soledad II, and the newly identified No. 8-spanning a distance of 1.5 km northwest (see NR December 3,2025). The Soledad II structure alone extends over one km at surface, where rock chip sampling has returned values up to 352 g/t silver and 2.42 g/t gold. We have drilled one hole on a km of prospective structure.

"The combination of high-grade intercepts and multiple parallel and sub-parrel mineralized vein/structures is what distinguishes a district-scale system from an isolated vein. Las Coloradas is demonstrating both."

WHY THIS MATTERS: GRADE + SCALE

These results confirm two key attributes of an emerging district: high-grade mineralization and the scale to host multiple targets. The vein/structure systems targeted by Kingsmen occur in a NW-trending area approximately 2.5 km long and approximately 1 km wide. Kingsmen has now intersected significant mineralization in three separate structures. This is not a single vein-it is a mineralized system.

High-Grade Confirmed Across Three Structures

• Soledad - Discovery hole returned 1,028 g/t AgEq over 1.45 m

• Soledad II - First drill hole returns 270 g/t AgEq over 1.3 m (this release)

• No. 8 Structure - New discovery 1.6 m @ 931 g/t AgEq and 1.28 g/t Au

Soledad II: A 1.5 km Step-Out with Km-Scale Potential

Hole LC-25-012 is the first hole drilled on the Soledad II structure, located 1.5 km northwest of the original Soledad discovery. Surface sampling along the +1 km strike length has returned:

• 352 g/t Ag & 0.71 g/t Au

• 200 g/t Ag & 2.42 g/t Au

One hole has been drilled on a kilometre of prospective structure. Multiple targets remain untested.

Strike Continuity Confirmed at Rosario

Hole LC-25-009 extended mineralization 70 m along strike from discovery hole LC-25-008. The structure remains open and undrilled for 200 m to the south. Pathfinder geochemistry-including antimony, arsenic, bismuth, lead, and zinc-confirms the mineralizing system continues.

DETAILED DRILL DISCUSSION

Leona Target

Hole LC-25-012 is the first hole drilled on the +1 km-long Soledad II vein/structure. The hole was designed to test silver-gold mineralization beneath surface samples collected near the middle of the structure (Figures 1 and 2), which returned:

• 352 g/t Ag & 0.71 g/t Au

• 200 g/t Ag & 2.42 g/t Au

The hole intersected the mineralized structure at 56.7 m downhole, returning a 4.8 m wide zone dipping to the west (Figure 3, Table 1). This intersection confirms the potential of the Soledad II structure to host significant silver-gold mineralization, as first indicated by surface sampling. Anomalous silver and gold values extend along the full strike length of the structure, defining multiple targets for future drilling.

Table 1: LC-25-012 Assay Results

Hole ID	From (m)	To (m)	Width (m)	AgEq (g/t)	Au (g/t)	Ag (g/t)	Pb (%)	Zn (%)
LC-25-012	56.70	61.50	4.80	90	0.00	52	0.91	1.22
incl	56.70	58.00	1.30	270	0.72	143	2.45	3.42
incl	57.20	58.00	0.80	360	0.22	220	3.10	4.32
	138.30	138.55	0.25	209	0.14	157	0.61	1.91

The silver equivalent calculation formula is AgEq(g/t) = ((Ag grade (g/t) x (Ag price per ounce/31.10348) x Ag recovery) + (Pb grade (%) x (Pb price per tonne/100) x Pb recovery) + (Zn grade (%) x (Zn price per tonne/100) x Zn recovery) + (Au grade (g/t) x (Au price per ounce/31.10348) x Au recovery)) / (Ag price per ounce/31.10348 x Ag recovery). The prices used were US$3675/oz gold, US$2960/t zinc, US$2003/t lead and US$42/oz silver. Recoveries are estimated at 40% for gold, 91% for lead, 85% for zinc and 92% for silver based on published figures by Kootenay Silver Inc. for sulphide mineralization in the Cigarra deposit, Chihuahua, Mexico, a deposit with similar style mineralization ( ).

Rosario Target

Holes LC-25-009 and LC-25-011 were collared 90 m northwest of LC-25-008 to test mineralization in the vicinity of the historic Rosario shaft (Figure 4).

Hole LC-25-009 targeted the mineralised structure intersected in LC-25-008, which returned 200 g/t AgEq & 0.28 g/t Au over 10.5 m, including 931 g/t AgEq & 1.28 g/t Au over 1.60 m. The hole intersected the structure at 118.0 m downhole, including a 0.65 m zone of anomalous gold and silver (118.15-118.8 m) with elevated pathfinder elements (antimony, arsenic, bismuth, lead, zinc; Table 2). This intersection is interpreted as an extension of the LC-25-008 mineralization, located approximately 70 m along strike to the southeast. The structure remains open and undrilled for 200 m south of LC-25-008.

Hole LC-25-011 intersected a broad alteration/structural zone from 90.73-157.8 m. Three zones of anomalous geochemistry were identified, characterised by low silver values, sporadic gold (up to 0.76 g/t over 0.6 m), and strong pathfinder signatures including antimony, arsenic, bismuth, and zinc (Table 2). The Rosario mine structure is interpreted between 131.75-137.65 m. The presence of pathfinder geochemistry, narrow silver-gold intersections, and associated alteration confirms the potential for mineralization in this area.

QAQC

The drill core (HQ size) is currently being geologically logged and sampled. The full drill core is sawn with a diamond blade rock saw. One half of the sawn drill core is bagged and tagged for analysis. The remaining half portion is returned to the drill core tray and stored. Bagged samples are securely stored prior to submission for analysis. Samples are being submitted to ALS Geochemistry-Chihuahua for multielement analysis following four-acid digestion (code ME-MS61), and gold by fire assay-AA (code Au-AA23). Quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) is maintained by the systematic insertion of certified standard reference materials (CSRM), blanks and duplicates into the sample stream. Assay results will be announced following receipt, compilation and confirmation. ALS Geochemistry operates under a Global Geochemistry Quality Manual that complies with ISO/IEC 17025:2017.
