Antilles Gold Limited (“Antilles Gold” or the “Company”) (ASX: AAU, OTCQB: ANTMF) is pleased to report a revised Mineral Resource Estimate (‘MRE’) for the first stage of the proposed Nueva Sabana copper-gold mine in central Cuba. The updated MRE follows completion of a 2,000m in-fill drilling program.

Comment
Antilles Chairman Brian Johnson commented: “Nueva Sabana’s MRE for the first stage of the proposed mine has increased in confidence and size and the outcropping high grade gold cap will underpin a low-cost, fast start-up operation. The updated MRE will help to further advance financing negotiations which to date have progressed favourably. Nueva Sabana holds considerable unlocked value with the current MRE based on shallow drilling to only 150 metres. As such, we anticipate a much longer life operation to what has been modelled. Beyond this, the La Demajagua mine is generating increased interest based on the strengthening antimony price and we are intent on capitalising on the project’s growing appeal. I look forward to keeping shareholders updated on progress.”

Antilles Gold Limited (“Antilles Gold” or the “Company”) (ASX: AAU, OTCQB: ANTMF) is pleased to advise the results of the Updated Scoping Study for the first stage of the proposed Nueva Sabana gold-copper mine in Cuba. The Study has been prepared by the 50% owned Cuban joint venture company, Minera La Victoria SA (“MLV”), which is undertaking the project.
Antilles Gold Chairman, Mr Brian Johnson, commented: “The first stage of Nueva Sabana, while relatively small, has an excellent IRR and will deliver significant free cash within a short timeframe.
MLV’s priority at this time is to finalise current negotiations on a concentrate off-take agreement for the project, and to arrange financing for the mine construction.
Antilles Gold’s share of the estimated NPV8 for the first stage of Nueva Sabana is ~A$70M at current metal prices of US$2,600 per oz Au, and US$9,300/t Cu, and an exchange rate of A$1.00 = US$0.66, which is significantly higher than the Company’s current market capitalisation of A$7.5M.
The opportunity to unlock further value for Antilles Gold will occur with the proposed development of the joint venture’s flagship project, the La Demajagua gold-silver-antimony mine, where the Company’s share of NPV8 reported to ASX on 30 March 2023 was ~A$150M, prior to the joint venture’s decision to expand the project to produce gold doré from the mine’s gold arsenopyrite concentrate, and to increase antimony production.
Before the end of 2024, Antilles Gold will contribute the final US$0.4M of the US$15.0M earn-in for its 50% shareholding in the joint venture company, Minera La Victoria (“MLV”), after which the Company’s cash burn will be substantially reduced.”

Walker Lane Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: WLR, "Walker Lane") announces that there has been unusual trading activity of its common shares that appeared to initiate on March 27, 2025 and appears to have occurred on each subsequent TSX-V trading day to current day. The recent stock trading activity does not reflect the health of our business or the recent significant value added assets to the property portfolio and adds to the previous undervaluation of the assets that were noted in a research report completed by Fundamental Research Corporation (see CMC Metals Ltd. press release - January 15, 2025). Management considers that some recent market transactions of its common shares could be an organized type of short selling tactic as we cannot determine any other explanation for the unusual downside trading activity.
In this regard, our management have contacted CIRO who are the market regulator for issuers on the TSX-V Exchange. CIRO is now undertaking an evaluation of certain market transactions and trading patterns of the common shares of WLR and our predecessor TSX-V: CMB to determine if a more comprehensive investigation is required. The company will not be advised by CIRO of the results of their evaluation or if an investigation is to be undertaken. However, if suspicious trading practices are identified they may result in further action by CIRO with the related party(ies).
Kevin Brewer, President and CEO of Walker Lane noted: "Walker Lane is advancing gold-silver projects in Nevada, the second most mine-friendly jurisdiction in the world as ranked by the 2024 Annual Fraser Institute Rankings of Mining Jurisdictions. The three new property focused in the Walker Lane Gold Trend in Nevada were added to our strong portfolio of exploration projects in Canada and should therefore result in a strengthening of our market position and valuation. These recent acquisitions have paved the way to conduct near-term exploration programs on potential high-grade gold and silver projects with a determined focus on drilling as a critical element of our exploration efforts. It is our intent to focus drilling on our two cornerstone properties, the Tule Canyon Gold Project in the highly popular Walker Lane Gold District in western Nevada and on our silver-polymetallic Amy Project in British Columbia. Combined with exploration efforts that are expected to be conducted on our Silverknife Property optioned to Coeur Mining Inc. and continued benefits in payment streams associated with the sale of our Bishop gold mill to North Bay Resources Inc, our management team feels that our new direction and our former strengths represent a tremendous opportunity to create shareholder value. The recent trading of our common shares does not in our opinion accurately reflect the value of our assets and the potential value generation that we submit can be derived by executing our current strategic direction."
In addition, the Company notes that it is creating a new website which will be www.walkerlaneresources.com
Our current target is to have the website operational on or before April 7, 2025 and thereafter it will be regularly updated with news updates, property information, recent and past corporate presentations, upcoming events etc,.

HIGHLIGHTS
The phase 1 drilling programme at Lammerlaw, Permit 60807 (Figure 1), is focused on confirming the style of mineralisation that gives rise to gold, antimony, and tungsten anomalies identified in soil sampling and at historical workings. The Lammerlaw Project hosts several west-northwest mineralised zones sub-parallel to foliation in schist and airborne geophysical trends. The mineralised zones are defined by NAE soil samples, a compilation of previous exploration data, survey of historic workings and are approximately 4 km long.
The Lammerlaw permit is primarily covered by a layer of loess (windblown silt), typically 1-5m deep, that sits on a thin zone of weathered schist and conceals mineralization. Hand augers are used for soil sampling to penetrate the loess. This means that most soil anomalies are buried and cannot be found by surface sampling, and the thin zone of weathered schist means that supergene mineralisation is not well developed.
NAE Executive Director Joshua Wellisch commented:
"We are excited to commence drilling at the Lammerlaw Project, where historical mining and modern exploration have highlighted the strong potential for high-grade gold and antimony mineralisation. This drill program is a key step in advancing the project and unlocking value for our shareholders."
The Phase 1 drilling programme will test 5 of the 9 identified targets, compiled from historic data and NAE soil sampling and which include high-grade discoveries of Au and Sb, along with data from historical production reported previously.
Figure 1: The NAE Lammerlaw permit occurs in the southern limb of a regional fold feature characterised by a change in metamorphic grade from upper greenschist (purple) to lower greenschist (green). At Macraes, mineralisation occurs inshear zone features truncated by structures controlling the change in metamorphic grade.
Each of the selected drill holes will test two types of conceptual targets which could relate to Au, As, Sb or W mineralisation (Figure 2):
1. Mineralisation can occur in shear zones parallel to schist foliation similar to Macreas or Rise n Shine mineralisation. This mineralisation style can be relatively subtle and will likely be detected in pXRF and assay results after drilling is completed
2. Mineralisation can occur in brittle vein structures oriented vertically or at a high angle to schist foliation. This mineralisation style can be detected through mineral analysis during on-site drill hole logging.
Figure 2: Conceptual targets for Lammerlaw drilling (not to scale). Red dotted lines indicate mineralisation parallel to foliation in schist. Red solid lines indicate vertical or high-angle vein mineralisation. Both could produce a similar buriedsoil anomaly (orange layer).
Soil anomalies derived from either mineralisation style (shear zone or high-angle vein) deliver the same or similar results. Historical mining records indicate that at least some of the mineralisation within the Lammerlaw permit is hosted in brittle vein structures. NAE is the first company to test the concept of shear zone mineralisation parallel to the schist in the Lammerlaw area.
The targets (Figure 3) include zones where several types of mineralisation indicators are aligned. Typically, the mineralisation indicators include historical workings, soil samples with elevated Au values, often coincident elevated As and Sb values and occasionally elevated W values. Once the targets are selected, drill hole locations are sited to intersect both target types within approximately 100m of drilling.
