Granada Gold Mine Structural Interpretation Supports Additional Drill Targets

Granada Gold Mine Structural Interpretation Supports Additional Drill Targets

Granada Gold Mine Inc.
 

Rouyn Noranda, Q.C. TheNewswire - January 8, 2026 - Granada Gold Mine Inc. (TSXV: GGM,OTC:GBBFF) (OTC: GBBFF) (Frankfurt: B6D) (the "Company" or "Granada") is pleased to provide a structural interpretation provided by our geological consultants. Historically, the Granada Gold Mine was mined through two shafts with an average gold grade of 9.7 grams per tonne from veins 1 and 2 with 3 additional veins (#2a, #3, and #5) identified. The Company has completed 126,000 meters of  drilling in 538 holes to date. With only 20 percent of the 2 kilometer east-west mineralized structure explored, and with the mineralized package being open to depth, the potential exists for more vein structures to be identified with further drilling.

 

The interpretation identifies the southern part of the property as showing a higher structural complexity based on all geophysical and historical data, which extends eastwards and westwards the length of the property. Further work is required on the northwest- and northeast-trending  faults and their relationship to the regional  East-West trending structures.

 

The geological consultants further recommended to create an updated geological map for the property that integrates historical mapping, LiDAR and magnetic lineaments as well as compiling historical structural measurements into a database to  create a more complete structural framework to support an updated 3D model.

Mineral Resource Estimate

 

On August 22, 2022 the Company filed an updated NI 43-101 technical report supporting the resource estimate update for the Granada Gold project (Please see July 6, 2022 news release) reporting that the Granada deposit contains an updated mineral resource, at a base case cut-off grade of 0.55 g/t Au for pit constrained mineral resources within a conceptual pit shell and at a base case cut-off grade of 2.5 g/t for underground mineral resources within reasonably mineable volumes, of 543,000 ounces of gold (8,220,000 tonnes at an average grade of 2.05 g/t Au) in the Measured and Indicated category, and 456,000 ounces of gold (3,010,000 tonnes at an average grade of 4.71 g/t Au) in the Inferred category. Please see Table 1 below for full details. Report reference: Granada Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate Update, Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, Canada authored by Yann Camus, P.Eng. and Maxime Dupéré, B.Sc, P.Geo., SGS Canada Inc. dated August 20th, 2022 and with an effective date of June 23rd, 2022.

About Granada Gold Mine Inc.

 

Granada Gold Mine Inc. continues to develop and explore its 100% owned Granada Gold Property near Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, and is adjacent to the prolific Cadillac Break. The Company owns 14.73 square kilometers of land in a combination of mining leases and claims. The Company is currently undergoing a large drill program with 20,000m out of 120,000m complete. The drills are currently paused to provide the technical team with the necessary time to evaluate, assimilate existing data and wait for improved market conditions. 

 

The Granada Shear Zone and the South Shear Zone contain, based on historical detailed mapping as well as from current and historical drilling, up to twenty-two mineralized structures trending east-west over five and a half kilometers. Three of these structures were mined historically from four shafts and three open pits. Historical underground grades were 8 to 10 grams per tonne gold from two shafts down to 236 m and 498 m with open pit grades from 3.5 to 5 grams per tonne gold.

 

The property includes the former Granada Gold underground mine which produced more than 50,000 ounces of gold at 10 grams per tonne gold in the 1930's from two shafts before a fire destroyed the surface buildings.  In the 1990s, Granada Resources extracted a bulk sample (Pit #1) of 87,311 tonnes grading 5.17 g/t Au.  They also extracted a bulk sample (Pit # 2) of 22,095 tonnes grading 3.46 g/t Au.
