Denarius Metals Announces Binding Letter of Intent with Quimbaya Gold for a 50/50 Joint Venture to Exploit the Tahami Project in the Segovia Gold District of Colombia

Denarius Metals Announces Binding Letter of Intent with Quimbaya Gold for a 50/50 Joint Venture to Exploit the Tahami Project in the Segovia Gold District of Colombia

Denarius Metals Corp. (Cboe CA: DMET) (OTCQX: DNRSF) ("Denarius Metals" or the "Company") announced today that it has signed a binding Letter of Intent with Quimbaya Gold Inc. ("Quimbaya") (CSE: QIM) (OTCQB: QIMGF) (FSE: K05) establishing a 5050 joint venture aimed at formalizing existing small-scale mining operations located within Quimbaya's Tahami Project which is located in the Segovia Gold District of Antioquia, Colombia, adjacent to the high-grade Segovia Operations owned by Aris Mining Corporation ("Aris Mining").

Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman of Denarius Metals, commented, "We see this joint venture with Quimbaya as an opportunity to leverage our team's considerable experience in exploration, mining and community relations in Colombia, particularly in the Segovia Gold District where we founded Gran Colombia Gold (now Aris Mining) and built the Segovia Operations into the largest underground gold producer in Colombia and one of the highest-grade underground gold producers globally. We are excited about the opportunity to develop near-term production and cash flow through the implementation of a formalized artisanal mining operation in partnership with Quimbaya and the local community."

This collaboration seeks to integrate artisanal mining operations into a formalized structure to create mutually beneficial partnerships while supporting and empowering the host communities in the Tahami Project. Importantly, this initiative complements Quimbaya's ongoing exploration efforts, including its planned 4,000-meter drilling campaign at Tahami South, by fostering stronger community relations and facilitating access to key areas. Both parties are working diligently to finalize a definitive agreement for the joint venture as soon as possible, subject to customary regulatory and corporate approvals. Key aspects of the joint venture include:

  • A 50/50 partnership between Zancudo Metals Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Denarius Metals and 100% owner of its Zancudo Project, and Quimbaya, where the costs and expenses will be split equally between both parties.
  • Joint development targeted on the Tahami South and Tahami North areas within the Tahami Project. Exploitation will focus on concessions SHO-08001, SE9-13331, LJQ-08001 and HHII-21 owned by Quimbaya.
  • The partnership aims to formalize current artisanal mining operations, leveraging the extensive experience of Denarius Metals' management who have implemented successful models in the region. Denarius Metals will provide technical and financial support so that the artisanal miners can legalize their production within the mining legalization program.
  • Denarius Metals will also leverage its previous experience to support the processes related to obtaining mining and environmental licenses for the Quimbaya concessions.
  • Denarius Metals will lead the commercialization of production on behalf of the joint venture. Profits from all sales will be split equally between both parties.

About the Tahami Project

Located directly adjacent to and on trend with Aris Mining's flagship Segovia Operations, the Tahami Project spans over 17,000 hectares across a district-scale vein system that shows analogies with the Segovia-Remedios Mining District, with historic artisanal activity and substantial exploration upside. The area is supported by existing infrastructure, a favorable mining jurisdiction and a strong tradition of gold production. Over 150 artisanal miners are actively producing gold on Quimbaya's assets daily and over 25 historical mines have been identified within its assets.

Couloir Capital is Pleased to Announce It Has Initiated Research Coverage on Quimbaya Gold

Couloir Capital is pleased to announce it has initiated research coverage Quimbaya Gold Inc. (CSE: QIM) ("QIM," or "Company").

Report excerpt: "Quimbaya's projects cover areas prospective for orogenic and epithermal gold deposits related to the major and splay structures of the region. Numerous prospects and small-scale locally operated mines are in the region and on the Company's claim groups. Limited modern exploration work has been completed on the claim groups at this time. The Company focused on its strategy of building a targeted land package in the Country for the first few years of its operations. The Company managed low-cost and fast claim acquisition through access to proprietary staking software, allowing Quimbaya a timing advantage to pick up the most prospective land ahead of other companies. It is now ready to commence its first drilling campaign on a mining title claim in the Segovia area, the Tahami South, adjacent to the Aris Gold project land."
