Exploration accelerating at the Romana West target with drilling expected to commence in June

 Pan Global Resources Inc. ("Pan Global" or the "Company") (TSXV: PGZ) (OTCQB: PGZFF) is pleased to announce positive assay results for two new diamond drill holes at the Cañada Honda target at the Company's 100%-owned Escacena Project in the Iberian Pyrite Belt, southern Spain . Cañada Honda is one of more than 14 gravity anomalies in the Escacena Project, which includes the copper-tin-silver discovery at the La Romana target.

"The new drill hole assay results have significantly enhanced the potential for a new copper-gold discovery at the Cañada Honda target. The results indicate an upper gold zone and deeper zone of copper-gold mineralization at the edge of a large untested DHEM conductor anomaly. The DHEM conductor and adjacent gravity anomaly expands the size potential at Cañada Honda. These are exciting results, including the highest gold grades that we have encountered at the Escacena Project, and further highlights the prospectivity of this land package and the many other targets not yet tested," said Tim Moody , Pan Global's President & CEO.

"Excellent progress is also being made at the Romana West target with two teams collecting gravity data, IP surveying, geochemical sampling and mapping underway concurrently, and drilling anticipated to commence in approximately two weeks," Mr. Moody added.

Cañada Honda is now a high-priority target due to subsequent down hole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys in both drill holes that show a large approximately 190m x 100m untested conductor anomaly with potential for stronger sulphide mineralization to the east and down-dip. Drilling has commenced on the first of three follow-up drill holes based on this new information.

Drill results for Cañada Honda holes CHD03 and CHD04 are summarized in Table 1 and drill hole collar details are presented in Table 2 below. Drill hole locations are shown in Figure 1.

Highlights
  • Holes CHD03 and CHD04, drilled on the same section, show a vector down-dip with increasing gold and copper within a continuous zone of massive sulphides and sulphide-stockwork mineralization, wide open at depth and along strike
  • Grades up to 5.3% Cu over 0.6m , and up to 5.2g/t Au over 1m intervals
  • Potential for scale is indicated by the proximity to a large untested gravity anomaly and adjacent DHEM conductor anomaly
  • CHD04 intersected:
    • 1m at 3.2g/t Au and 2.3g/t Ag from 85m
    • 5m at 1.1g/t Au and 1.7g/t Ag from 94m , including
      • 1m at 5.1g/t Au and 1.6g/t Ag
    • 1m at 0.3% Cu, 1.1g/t Au and 1.0g/t Ag from 107m
    • 13m at 0.5% Cu, 0.8g/t Au and 2.7g/t Ag from 167m , including
      • 6.2m at 0.9% Cu, 1.5g/t Au and 3.8g/t Ag
      • 5m at 0.5% Cu, 2.7g/t Au and 4.5g/t Ag
      • 0.6m at 5.3% Cu, 0.5g/t Au and 10.8g/t Ag
  • CHD03 intersected:
    • 2m at 1.4g/t Au from 58m
    • 8m at 1.0 g/t Au from 66m
    • 14m at 0.4% Cu, 0.3g/t Au and 2.1g/t Ag from 141m , including
      • 6m at 0.9% Cu, 0.6g/t Au and 4.2g/t Ag
      • 3m at 1.4% Cu, 0.8g/t Au and 6.6g/t Ag
  • These are the highest gold grades detected in the Escacena Project area to date, and a potentially significant addition to the copper equivalent grade
  • Downhole EM results indicate the strongest copper-gold mineralization in drill hole CHD04 coincides with the edge of a large untested 190m x 100m DHEM conductor plate anomaly, and potential indicator of more significant sulphide mineralization to the East and down-dip.

The Cañada Honda target is characterized by a large gravity anomaly (up to 1 mGal) that extends approximately two kilometers East-West. The new drill results confirm the target concept for sulphide mineralization within the prospective Volcanic Sequence (VS) concealed beneath, and potentially within the overthrust rocks of the older shales and quartzites (PQ). See Figure 3 below.

Cañada Honda

Drill holes CHD03 and CHD04 tested approximately 150m and 210m , respectively, down-dip of a historic mine tunnel where previous channel sampling by Pan Global returned 26m at 0.42g/t Au and individual assay values up to 2.9g/t Au, 27.5g/t Ag, 0.2% Cu and 0.4% Co. Hole CHD02, located 475m to the west of holes CHD03 and CHD04, intersected 11m at 0.6% Cu, 0.12g/t Au and 3.2g/t Ag (abandoned before reaching target due to hole collapse).

New processing and interpretation of the gravity data over the Cañada Honda target shows drill holes CHD03 and CHD04 are on the edge of a large gravity inversion model anomaly. Based on the encouraging initial drill results, three additional follow-up holes are planned to test gravity and IP anomalies down-dip from CHD-04 and a DHEM conductor anomaly east of CHD04.

Drilling is ongoing in the Escacena Project at the La Romana and Zarcita targets. Results are pending for approximately 20 drill holes at La Romana and Zarcita with results to be reported on completion of the final few drill holes at each target. The maiden drill campaign at La Romana West is scheduled to commence in June. Negotiations are also in progress with landowners for access to the untested potential eastern extensions to the La Romana mineralization and Bravo target.

QA/QC Procedures
Core size was HQ (63mm) and all samples were ½ core. Nominal sample size was 1m core length and ranged from 0.4m to 2m . Sample intervals were defined using geological contacts with the start and end of each sample physically marked on the core. Diamond blade core cutting and sampling was supervised at all times by Company staff. Duplicate samples of ¼ core were taken approximately every 30 samples and Certified Reference materials inserted every 25 samples in each batch.

Samples were delivered to ALS laboratory in Sevilla, Spain and assayed at the ALS laboratory in Ireland . All samples were crushed and split (method CRU-31, SPL22Y), and pulverized using (method PUL-31). Gold analysis was by 50gm Fire assay with ICP finish (method Au-ICP22) and multi element analysis was undertaken using a 4-acid digest with ICP AES finish (method ME-ICP61). Over grade base metal results were assayed using a 4-acid digest ICP AES (method OG-62).

Vertex Minerals Limited  Identifies Additional Gold Resources at the Reward Mine

Vertex Minerals Limited Identifies Additional Gold Resources at the Reward Mine

Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) - Vertex Minerals Limited (ASX:VTX) (OTCMKTS:VTXXF) is pleased to announce that the Company's engineering and geology team at the Reward Mine have identified an additional two stope block that have not been previously reported. These stopes will be incorporated into the overall mine schedule, but provide an early source of mill feed.

HIGHLIGHTS:

- VTX's Technical Services team has identified a fully developed stope block to include in the mine production start-up.

- Stopes are suitable for airleg mining which will augment jumbo production.

- Stope blocks contains an Inferred Resource of 2,075 tonnes at 17.8 g/t Au and forms part of the 2023 Mineral Resource Estimate. With the lower block having over 700 tonnes at 42.5 g/t. The planned stope width is the same as the interpretation of the mineralisation.

- Stopes are additional to the PFS mine schedule which is illustrated in Figure 2* showing the location of the additional stope.

- Stope blocks are fully developed and have been sampled from development.

- This stope can be exploited as soon as services have been established.

The stopes were developed by a previous operator and are accessible from existing development. The additional stope blocks contain an Inferred Resource of 2,075 tonnes at 17.8 g/t Au containing 1,189 ounces of gold with the lower block having over 700 tonnes at 42.5 g/t. The planned stope width is the same as the interpretation of the mineralisation. These stopes forms part of the Mineral Resource Estimate reported in VTX Announcement 22 June 2023. They were not included in the production forecast detailed in the 2024 Pre-Feasibility Study (Announcement 3 January 2024). This was due to the complexity of existing airleg workings and uncertainty around access and ground conditions and wide spaced drilling which established these areas into an Inferred Resource Category.

Note: 'The Mineral Resources are additional to the Ore Reserves.'

Subsequent investigations, which included physical inspection of the levels and completing a geotechnical assessment, have concluded that the stopes are fully developed and accessible.

The quartz veins are exposed in the existing development and have been sampled. In total ninety-seven (97) face samples were taken along the stope and assayed for gold. Figure 3* illustrates the sample grades diluted to 1.5m width, which represents a minimum mining width, and the locations along the stope.

The density of sampling around the stope locations, along with accessibility adds to the confidence that the Company can successfully mine this area very early in the start-up of underground production. The Company believes the inclusion of these stopes is significant to early production, and that the stopes will be mined before the Company updates the Resource and Reserve Estimates for the Project. These samples were not used in the Resource.

The Company plans to exploit this stope once the mine services have been established and bring this stope into the initial stages of the production schedule.

Vertex's Executive Chairman, Roger Jackson commented: "Our new technical team has been established, and it is great to see them looking for the opportunities to add value to the high-grade underground production start-up.

This really does show the potential this mine has for high grade expansion. We are in the process of re-opening the underground mine with the establishment of mine services. Dewatering of the declines has commenced and is progressing to schedule."
