Element79 Gold (CSE:ELEM,OTC:ELMGF) is an exploration and development mining company with the potential for near-term production through its Lucero project in Peru. The Lucero mine is one of the highest-grade underground mines in Peru’s history and is on the fast track for production. Additionally, the company’s two exploration projects in Nevada, Clover and West Whistler, create further opportunities for future resource development. A globally-experienced management team with a proven track record of success in developing operational mines leads Element79 toward fully realizing the potential of its assets.
Lucero is a past-producing, high-grade gold mine ready to reach production quickly. The mine operated between 1989 to 2005. Historic reports between 1998 and 2004 indicate that the mine produced approximately 18,800 ounces of gold and 435,000 ounces of silver per year at 19 grams per ton (g/t) gold equivalent. An NI 43-101 report prepared by a third party indicates grades up to 116.8 g/t gold equivalent. In addition to generating near-term cash flow, the 10,805-hectare Lucero project also has high upside potential for further greenfield exploration.
Peru is considered a relatively stable mining jurisdiction, especially for smaller-scale operations. As mining is an essential aspect of the country’s GDP, Peru has developed a favorable regulatory regime for its mining industry. Element79 Gold is poised to benefit from the pro-mining jurisdiction as it moves the Lucero asset toward production.
Ground work at the Lucero property is currently underway, where Element79 has engaged Ore Discovery LLC, a technical mining service provider, to work in conjunction with Element79’s operations team. The work includes above-ground and underground mapping, sampling, trenching, drill site targeting on both better-known and unexplored vein systems, for exploration and de-risked resource development on the path toward ore extraction and near-term cash flow generation.
Latest underground mapping and channel sampling efforts on the Lucero property have revealed additional insights, documenting an expansive network spanning 8.9 kilometers of workings, with 85 percent now meticulously mapped and sampled. A total of 19 adits have been mapped, with 10 additional adits remaining for underground mapping. Intersected mineralization conforms to the intermediate sulfidation epithermal style, characterized by gold-silver veins with associated lead and zinc sulphides.
In June 2023, Element79 Gold further strengthened its portfolio in Peru with the acquisition of the 1,200-hectare Lucero del Sur 28, located strategically just east of the high-grade Lucero gold-silver project. Lucero del Sur 28 is a coveted area covering the Roxana vein, a vein dominated by white to hyaline quartz and altered rock clasts, with lesser amounts of limonite patinas, hematite, pyrite and jarosite.
In North America, the company holds a portfolio of mining properties in Nevada, one of which is the Maverick Springs gold and silver project. With an inferred 3.71 million ounces of gold equivalent, the project is located in one of the world’s richest gold mining districts and is located only 30 kilometers away from the Kinross (NYSE:KGC) Bald Mountain Mine. It is currently under an option agreement to sell wherein the company stands to generate CAD $4.4 million cash and AUD $800,000 in shares of Green Power Minerals (soon to be known as Sun Silver Limited by July 2024.
A powerhouse management team leads Element79 Gold with a track record of experience and success. Antonio Maragakis, Former COO and now Director, has held director-level positions at miners with multi-billion dollar portfolios, including Barrick Gold Corporation and Koch Industries. In addition, Kim Kirkland, Chief Operating Officer, has led engineering roles in some of the world’s largest mining companies, such as Rio Tinto Group and Barrick Gold Corporation.
Shane Williams, strategic advisor, brings a history of significant value creation in early-stage and operating companies and currently heads West Red Lake Gold (TSXV:WRLG) as president and CEO. Combined, Element79 has the right experts to fully realize its assets' potential.
The 10,805-hectare project in southern Peru presents near-term cash flow potential as it moves toward production. Lucero operated as a high-grade gold mine between 1989 and 2005 and remains partially unexplored. As a result, the asset is in a unique position to start generating revenue while also providing future growth opportunities with additional exploration.
The Nevada-based Maverick Springs gold project covers 4,800 acres on top of a gold belt with deposits approximately five miles wide and 40 miles long. The project’s gold belt district has produced more gold than any other mining district in the United States.
The Clover Property is located in the historic Midas Mining District in Nevada, which has been producing gold and silver since the early 1900s and is 16 kilometers west of Hecla Mining Company’s Midas Mine, the largest known gold-silver epithermal deposit along the Northern Nevada Rift. Mineralization at the property is classified as low-sulphidation, vein-hosted, epithermal gold mineralization similar to that found at the Midas deposit as it is found within a similar geologic setting. Gold and silver mineralization at the Midas Mine is hosted in several northwest-striking veins. Between 1998 and 2013, the main veins produced over 2 million ounces of gold.
A $6.7-million program is planned for the Clover Property focused on data compilation, construction of geologic and resource models, and a 10,000-meter drilling program followed by a mineral resource estimate and NI 43-101 compliant preliminary economic assessment.
The West Whistler Property is located in the Eureka Mining District, which hosts mid-Cretaceous, igneous-related, polymetallic carbonate replacement deposits that have subsequently been overprinted by Carlin-type gold-silver mineralization. The property is located along the southeastern end of the Battle Mountain Trend near several gold deposits including the Cortez Mine, the third largest gold mine in North America with 2021 gold production of 828,000 ounces.
Since its acquisition, Element79 has completed high-level data review and conceptual plans for target identification. The company has a $ 700,000 program planned for the West Whistler Property focused on field operations, surface sampling and structural analysis in order to develop drill targets

VANCOUVER, BC THE NEWSWIRE March 2 6 2024 Element79 Gold Corp. (CSE: ELEM) (OTC: ELMGF) (FSE: 7YS) ("Element79", the "Company) is pleased to provide additional updates on recent efforts on its Lucero property, further highlighting the flagship project's vast potential.
The latest underground mapping and channel sampling efforts on Element79's Lucero property have revealed additional insights, surpassing initial expectations. Accessible historical working, originally estimated at just 2.5 km, has been significantly. Recent work has documented an expansive network spanning 8.9 km of workings (Figure 1 and 2), with 85% now meticulously mapped and sampled. These findings significantly expand our understanding of Lucero's geological landscape, positioning the Company for unprecedented exploration opportunities.
To date a total of 19 adits have been mapped, with 10 additional adits remaining for underground mapping. In addition to discovery of significantly more accessible working, work done between October and December yielded significant insight into the project' gold-silver mineralization. Below are some of the highlights of recent and historical workings:
Mineralization conforms to the intermediate sulfidation epithermal style, characterized by Au-Ag veins with associated lead and zinc sulphides.
Subvertical structures, hosted with dacite tuffs are the primary controls of the mineralized veins, with an average vein width of 0.40m.
Within the Apacheta zone, mineralization remains open at depth and towards the northwest.
Two structures exhibiting significant exploration potential for gold-silver mineralization have been identified: the Promesa vein and the Pillune sector.
Notably, the Pillune sector appears hosts a well-defined ore shoot, highlighting its substantial mineralization potential.
"As we advance on this journey of discovery, our commitment to unlocking Lucero's vast potential through collaborative relationships remains unwavering," said James Tworek, CEO of Element79. "With each milestone, we inch closer to realizing our vision of sustainable and responsible resource exploration and production. We remain dedicated to creating enduring value for our shareholders and fostering prosperity within the communities we operate."
Drawing from historical Buenaventura reports spanning 2005-2008, enriched by continued community engagement, Element79 has unearthed compelling prospects for exploration.

All Samples were sent for To CERTIMIN S.A. Laboratories, Lima, Peru for analysis. Standards and duplicates were inserted every 10 th samples.
Recent data from assay results is pivotal for Element 79. Firstly, it will serve as the foundation for the Company’s resource development and future mine planning. These reports are both essential steps the mine evaluation process and highlights crucial milestones in demonstrating the project's viability.
Secondly, this data will inform the direction of the Company’s upcoming 2024 drill program, which will be guided by a 3D modelling of both geology and historic mine workings, designed to maximize efficiency and accuracy. The 3D model will harness the comprehensive dataset that has been amassed, including historic data compilation from the past-producing era leading up to 2005, current surface and underground geochemistry, review and channel sampling of underground workings, mapping (both underground and surface), geophysical surveys, as well as cross-sectional and longitudinal interpretations.
Tworek continues: “This data helps to prove from a methodical and unbiased perspective where both the ore “is” as much as where the ore “isn’t”. When modelled in conjunction with past sampling data and historical production data, this proves that the current underground addits and open veins as well as their surface level expressions are strong economically, where future exploration and drilling campaigns will highlight where we will focus for ore extraction.“
As the Element79 team moves forward, its confidence is both in the skill and experience of its team as well as the continued positive results its work programs have yielded. The Company’s mission is to maximize shareholder value through continued development of the Lucero project, by bringing it back into commercial production, in a safe, ethical, sustainable and profitable fashion.
