Antilles Gold Raises $1.58 Million for Projects in Cuba

Antilles Gold Limited (“Antilles Gold” or the “Company”) (ASX: AAU, OTCQB: ANTMF) confirms that it has placed 394,315,000 Shortfall Shares from its recent Entitlement Offer at $0.004 per share and raised $1,577,260 before costs, and issued 197,157,493 free attaching AAUO options exercisable at $0.01 each on or before 31 December 2026. No additional Shortfall Shares will be issued.


The funds will be applied primarily to share capital in the Cuban joint venture mining company, Minera La Victoria SA, which will be used for initial development activities on the joint venture’s Nueva Sabana gold-copper mine, and on pre-development expenditure for the La Demajagua gold-silver-antimony mine.

Contributions to date for the US$15.0 million farm-in to 50% ownership of Minera La Victoria are ~US$14.35 million.

  • A revised MRE and mine schedule for the first stage of Nueva Sabana are expected to be completed within 3 to 4 weeks, after which the financial model will be updated, and the focus will shift to negotiating an off-take agreement for the gold, and copper-gold concentrates that will be produced, and construction funding.
  • The aim is to complete initial development costs for the Nueva Sabana mine including engineering for the long-lead concentrator, and associated mine infrastructure, and for construction of the 1.6km access road and siteworks, and connection to HT power mains by the end of the year.
  • Subject to finalising an acceptable financing Term Sheet in October/November, construction of the mine will commence in December 2024 with commissioning expected 12 months later.
  • The only near term expenditure on the La Demajagua mine will be on preliminary engineering for the proposed concentrate processing facility and antimony recovery circuit to allow an offer to be prepared by a Chinese engineering group for the turnkey design and construction of the facility.
  • This will allow a Scoping Study to be completed early next year for the expanded project which, based on recently completed metallurgical test work, is expected to reflect the production of ~4,800tpa antimony as an important by-product to gold and silver production over the planned 9 year LoM (refer ASX announcement 13 September 2024).
  • Antimony is an in-demand critical metal with a current price of ~US$26,000 per tonne, predicted by traders to increase to ~US$30,000 per tonne by the end of this year
  • The La Demajagua project is expected to be development-ready in Q4 2025.

This announcement has been authorised by the Chairman of Antilles Gold Limited.

Walker Lane Resources Ltd. Notes Unusual Trading Activity and the Development of its New Website

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.

Top 5 ASX Gold Stocks of 2025

Gold has continued to perform exceptionally well in 2025 and even broke through the AU$5,000 per ounce mark for the first time on April 1, when it reached a new all-time high of AU$5,034.

Markets have experienced significant volatility since the start of US President Donald Trump’s term. Tariff threats have created unease among US allies attempting to avoid a full-scale trade war with the world’s largest economy.

The rising gold price also coincides with increasing tensions in the Middle East, where attacks against Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen have intensified. These and other circumstances have prompted investors to seek the safe haven of gold, leading the yellow metal to repeatedly hit new record-high prices throughout the year.
