“The Machichie West target has never been previously tested by drilling, but previous trenching produced encouraging results including 96.5m @ 0.6 g/t gold and 138m @ 0.5 g/t gold. Following the recent success of near-surface drilling at the Machichie NE target where RC421 recently returned 11m @ 33 g/t gold, this maiden reconnaissance drill program at Machichie West was designed to follow up surface trench results and define the near surface potential for additional oxide resources. The results from hole RC439 look particularly encouraging and may indicate the presence of another new zone of gold mineralization which extends to surface. As with recent results from the Machichie Main and Machichie NE zones, these results indicate the presence of additional near surface gold-in-oxide mineralization in close proximity to the MG gold deposit.” -- Alan Carter, President & CEO “The drilling at Machichie is still widely spaced and there some large gaps, but it appears that Machichie West is the westward continuation of the major E-W trending structural zone coming out of Machichie Main zone. Mineralization is still open to the west as well as the east where we have a large gap in drilling between Machichie West and Machichie Main. The overall Machichie trend has now been defined as over 1.5 kilometres long, and given the proximity to MG, Machichie could provide significant upside to the overall gold-in-oxide development project.” -- Brian Arkell, VP Exploration and Technical Services https://lnkd.in/dKJQSXmD

Mexico’s Best Drilling Intercepts, Fourth Week of May 2024 Four companies released results from drilling programs in Mexico during the week. The four projects present epithermal low or intermediate sulfidation mineralization, mostly structurally controlled, with dissemination developed on the favorable El Tigre Formation at El Tigre. Silver Tiger’s results from El Tigre project in Sonora display the highest gold and silver results on the period. The company released assays from 95 holes from the drilling program for the ongoing pre-feasibility study (PFS) on the Stockwork deposit, highlighting the high-grade mineralization beneath the 2023 PEA open pit in the Keel Zone and expansion of the PEA starter pit to the north. Tocvan Ventures presented results from one more reverse circulation (RC) hole outside from the Main Zone at the Pilar project in Sonora. The hole tested near-surface mineralization on the North Hill Zone; drilling continues, with assays pending for six holes. Vizsla Silver’s results are from 16 holes targeting the central and southern extent of the Napoleon vein at its Panuco project in Sinaloa. “Infill and step-out (expansionary) drilling completed to date has led to an improved understanding of the mineralization controls along the Napoleon vein corridor. Observations based on metal zonation and alteration continue to support the interpretation that the corridor is tilted”. Kootenay Silver released results from six holes targeting the eastern extension of the D-Vein at Columba in Chihuahua. Four of the holes targeted shallow levels to establish dip orientation of the vein before further deeper drilling testing. The deeper drilling focused below the 1,750 m asl elevation, where the best grades begin, stepping 200 to 375 m along strike from previous drilling. #Mexico #Exploration #Mining #Drilling #Gold #Silver #Lead #Zinc

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT: DIAMOND DRILLING COMPLETED AT PARIS GOLD PROJECT Torque Metals is pleased to announce it has completed another phase of infill and extensional diamond drilling at its wholly owned flagship Paris Gold Project, located in the West Australia Goldfields region - one of the most favourable jurisdictions for minerals exploration globally. This ongoing program is slated to be the last before the Company delivers its maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at the Project. • Diamond drill program successfully completed, comprising 1,106m across the Paris (4 holes, 1,006m) and HHH (1 hole, 100m) prospects. • Program objective was to infill and extend high-grade mineralisation while obtaining structural, geotechnical and density information to enhance and inform Torque’s maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. • Core samples are now at the laboratory; assay results expected late August. • Imminent ~7,000 m RC program is being fine-tuned with Program of Work (POW) approved. • Paris is a shallow, high-grade, high-recovery (>96%) gold project located proximate to processing infrastructure and surrounded by producers such as Goldfields, Westgold, Northern Star among others. Torque’s Managing Director, Cristian Moreno commented: “Torque has successfully completed its next 1,106 metres of diamond drilling at its Paris Gold Project, targeting both infill and extension of high-grade mineralisation. Core samples are now at the laboratory, with assay results anticipated within the next few weeks. “Additionally, the company is poised to kick off a 7,000-metre RC drilling program currently being optimised with its Program of Works (POW) already approved. As we near the finalisation of our maiden MRE later this quarter, these results will build on an enhanced Paris Gold resource. “Concurrently, soil sampling is underway across previously unexplored targets, outside of the MRE zone, with results expected by mid-September."

“The assay results from RC421 at the Machichie NE target are amongst the top three drill holes ever drilled at Cuiú Cuiú and are the best results drilled to date outside of the known Central and MG gold deposits. The Machichie NE target is located immediately north of the Machichie Main zone discovery and the MG gold deposit all of which contain high-grade E-W trending mineralized structures. The extent of the mineralized structures at both Machichie NE and Machichie Main still need to be determined. These results not only have very positive implications for the presence of additional near surface gold-in-oxide resources at Cuiú Cuiú, but also suggest the presence of significant zones of high-grade mineralization in primary bedrock underlying the weathered material. Further drilling is in progress and is aimed at determining the size of both the Machichie Main zone and the more recent Machichie NE discovery.” -- Alan Carter, President & CEO "The Machichie area continues to return very encouraging results especially in the NE where we are encountering higher grades in major structural breaks. These are some of the highest grades encountered to date on the property and illustrate the significant exploration potential, not only laterally and at depth, but also within newly defined sub-parallel structural zones. Results thus far at Machichie demonstrate significant potential to add resources and higher-grade material to our oxide project, especially given the proximity of the Machichie NE and Machichie Main zones to the MG gold deposit. Further results are expected in the coming weeks as we continue to prioritize drilling for extensions where mineralization remains open to both the west and east.” -- Brian Arkell, VP Exploration and Technical Services https://lnkd.in/dkTEAc7i

Emerald Resources is pleased to release the most recent results of the Company's exploration program for both Australia and Cambodia. At Bullseye's North Laverton Gold Project (Emerald ~81%) drilling continues to demonstrate the continuity of mineralisation at depth and along strike at the Boundary, and Stirling and Neptune Prospects. The recently commenced regional RC drilling program, the first under Emerald management, has resulted in two new discoveries at the Freeman's Find and Banjawarn Prospects including 5m @ 20.61g/t Au from 33m including 1m @ 101g/t Au from 36m (RC24FMF001); 21m @ 3.98g/t Au from 26m including 1m @ 49.90g/t Au from 29m (RC24FMF009); and 14m @ 1.06g/t Au from 49m (RC24BNJ012). The Freeman’s Find program consisted of 30 collars for a total of 3,054m and the Banjawarn program of 13 collars for 1,382m. Assays for approximately 3,500m of drilling remain pending. Emerald has also continued to progress an exploration drill program at the Company's flagship Okvau Gold Mine, focusing on infilling and extending the currently open pit and maiden underground resource mineralisation proximally within and beyond the reserve pit shell. The results indicate mineralisation outside the existing resource that are likely to extend the known mineralisation or upgrade the classification of inferred material, enhancing Emerald's confidence in the existing resource. Following on from the previously announced Memot Gold Project maiden open pit inferred resource of 8Mt @ 1.84g/t Au for 470koz, Stage 2 drilling activities have commenced and are directed to infill and extend previously reported gold mineralisation that remain open at depth and in all directions with significant results received from the samples returned to date.
