Group Eleven Resources Corp. (TSXV: ZNG) (OTC Pink: GRLVF) (FSE: 3GE) ("Group Eleven" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received $749,438 from recent warrant exercises and that it has expanded the ongoing drill program at the Company's 100%-owned Ballywire zinc-lead-silver discovery ("Ballywire") on the PG West Project ("PG West"), Republic of Ireland. All currency in this news release is denominated in Canadian dollars.
Since its announcement on August 28, 2024 stating that Group Eleven received $800,562 from the early exercise of 6,671,349 warrants (originally issued as part of a private placement which closed on July 30, 2020) each with an exercise price of $0.12 and expiring October 28, 2024 (the "Warrants"), the Company reports that it has since received a further $749,438 from the exercise of all remaining 6,245,318 Warrants. In total, the Company received proceeds of $1,550,000 from the exercise of 12,916,667 Warrants in 2024.
Additional funds from the warrant exercises will allow the current two-rig drill campaign at Ballywire to continue at full capacity well beyond the end of 2024. Drilling this year at Ballywire currently totals 6,589m (including 5,320m reported to date and five holes pending assay results), with the expected total for the year to range between 7,500m and 8,000m. The Company will aim to keep the pace of drilling at Ballywire at similar or increased levels in 2025.
"We sincerely thank our shareholders for their continued support" stated CEO, Bart Jaworski. "We are very pleased to be able to keep drilling at Ballywire through the end of this year and comfortably into 2025. It's been over two years since our discovery hole at Ballywire and the footprint and intensity of the mineralized system intersected to date continues go from strength to strength. With the recently announced robust massive sulphide zone emerging in the northeast, a lot more step-out drilling is yet to be done beyond our current 2.6km drilled corridor, along our 6km prospective trend. Drill progress at Ballywire continues to be on schedule and we look forward to providing the next drill results in the near term."
