Interview with Scott Emerson, President & CEO, and Kieran Downes, Director of Kingsmen Resources

Recording date: 5th September 2025

Kingsmen Resources presents a compelling investment opportunity in Mexico's precious metals sector through its systematic consolidation of historic mining districts and disciplined approach to exploration financing. The company has assembled two significant projects in Chihuahua's renowned Parral district, targeting areas with established production history and modern expansion potential.

The flagship Las Coloradas project centers on a mine that operated from 1944 to 1952, producing high-grade silver-lead-zinc mineralization averaging 600-800 grams per tonne. Through methodical claim assembly, Kingsmen has consolidated what was previously 15 separate claim blocks into a cohesive nine-square-mile package. Modern exploration has extended the original 300-meter strike length to 1.4 and 1.7 kilometers respectively, suggesting significant expansion potential beyond historic workings.

Current operations focus on a 3,000-meter drilling program targeting 11-12 holes with depths ranging from 250 to 500 meters. The program tests continuation of mineralization along strike and below the historic water table, with results expected by September 2025. Technical work has identified strong pathfinder elements including arsenic, antimony, beryllium, and bismuth, while induced polarization surveys reveal extensive sulfide development across multiple rock types.

The Almoloya project represents the company's second major consolidation success. Almoloya has attracted previous attention from major mining companies including Hecla, Anglo American, and Kennecott, though these operators worked individual claim blocks rather than the consolidated package now controlled by Kingsmen. This previous work generated approximately $3 million worth of historical data that Kingsmen acquired without associated exploration costs.

Management maintains exceptional capital discipline with only 25 million shares outstanding, having completed all acquisitions through cash payments rather than equity dilution. The Las Coloradas acquisition totals $2.1 million over seven years with no net smelter return, while Almoloya requires $8 million over eight years with a 2% NSR. Both payment schedules feature minimal upfront costs, allowing systematic exploration without financial strain.

Strategic positioning creates multiple value realization pathways. GoGold operates processing facilities just 40 kilometers from Las Coloradas, currently trucking tailings 10 miles to their heap leach facility. This proximity suggests potential synergies for toll processing or outright acquisition if Kingsmen demonstrates sufficient scale and grade. The company also holds a purchasable royalty on GoGold's Los Ricos North project for $1 million, providing additional leverage to regional consolidation trends.

Under President Scott Emerson's leadership, the company benefits from extensive mining experience including the Jolu mine discovery in northern Saskatchewan and 18 years developing projects in Argentina with Mitsubishi funding. Technical expertise comes from Director Kieran Downes, formerly with Cameco's uranium and gold divisions, while local representation through third-generation mining family member Carlos Garza provides social license and operational knowledge.

Management targets resource potential exceeding 200 million ounces across both projects, based on geological similarities to regional deposits that have operated for centuries. The systematic approach to previously unexplored-by-juniors territory, combined with strong technical data and favorable operational conditions, positions Kingsmen for potential significant value creation through successful exploration results while preserving equity value through disciplined capital allocation.
