Quimbaya Gold’s strategic focus on Colombia offers a compelling opportunity for gold exploration in a prolific, yet underexplored region supported by a favorable permitting environment. The upside potential is worthy of examination by any savvy investor.
Quimbaya Gold (CSE:QIM) is a junior gold exploration company focused on its high-grade gold projects in Colombia. The company’s portfolio spans 59,057 hectares across three highly prospective regions in the Antioquia mining district. This region is responsible for approximately 50 percent of Colombia’s total gold production, equivalent to around 1 million ounces (Moz) annually.
Positioned right next to Aris Mining’s (TSX:ARIS) Segovia mine, Quimbaya leverages its proximity to established infrastructure and gold-rich geological formations. With Colombia being one of the most underexplored yet top mining jurisdictions in South America, Quimbaya’s projects are uniquely poised for significant discoveries.
Quimbaya’s projects benefit from Colombia’s favorable permitting environment, enabling faster transitions from discovery to production, compared to its global peers. Quimbaya’s strategy focuses on value creation through new discoveries and monetizing them via strategic transactions, including joint ventures and operational contracts.
Quimbaya has established a significant partnership with Independence Drilling, Colombia’s largest drilling company with over 40 years of experience. The agreement secures 100,000 meters of drilling over five years, with Independence Drilling accepting part of its payment in Quimbaya shares. This innovative structure demonstrates strong confidence in Quimbaya’s projects, ensuring cost-effective and efficient drilling operations.
The company’s management team brings extensive and deep expertise in exploration in Colombia, corporate finance and project development. Quimbaya trades on multiple exchanges: CSE (QIM), OTCQB (QIMGF), and FSE (K05).
The Tahami project is located in Segovia, Antioquia, adjacent to Aris Mining’s Segovia mine, one of the highest-grade gold mines in the world. Spanning 17,087 hectares, Tahami’s geology features mesothermal veins with multiple mineralization events underlain by Precambrian metamorphic rocks consolidated within the San Lucas Gneiss unit.
Several vein systems from Aris Mining’s Segovia project, including the Sandra K and El Silencio veins, extend towards Quimbaya’s tenements. Both the Sandra K and El Silencio veins align with structural orientations of known high-grade deposits. The project also boasts more than 25 historical artisanal mines, underscoring its prospectively.
Quimbaya’s exploration plan for Tahami involves leveraging advanced geochemical and geophysical surveys to generate drill targets. These efforts will be complemented by modern 3D geological modelling and an initial drilling campaign to test high-grade zones. The integration of historical data and cutting-edge technology positions Tahami as a prime asset for discovery. The initial drilling campaign is anticipated to commence by late Q2 of 2025 and will prioritize the high-grade targets identified in preliminary exploration work.
Located in Abejorral, Antioquia, 80 kilometers south of MedellÃn, the Maitamac project spans 33,223 hectares and offers excellent road access. This emerging gold metallogenic district features mesothermal veins and potential porphyry gold-copper systems.
Initial surface rock samples have reported gold grades of up to 3.2 g/t, with stream sediments revealing over 1 g/t gold. Identified as a promising district by the Colombian Geological Services, Maitamac is positioned alongside the past producing ABE project and structural corridor which has produced mined shoots averaging 26 g/t gold.

Unlocking high-grade gold potential in Antioquia, Colombia’s premier mining district
Cornerstone investor brings proven regional track record; company now fully funded into 2026 for multi-project advancement in Colombia
Quimbaya Gold Inc. (CSE: QIM) (OTCQB: QIMGF) (FSE: K05) ("Quimbaya" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the closing of its upsized non-brokered private placement of 11,525,299 units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of C$0.35 per Unit for gross proceeds of $4,033,854 (the "Offering").
Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one Share at a price of C$0.60 per Share for a period of 36 months expiring on July 4, 2028.
As previously disclosed, the upsizing was driven by a single investor group with a long-term outlook and a successful track record of supporting exploration and development projects in South America. The Company views this as a strong endorsement of its team, strategy, and pipeline of high-potential assets across Colombia's Antioquia district.
"With this raise, we are now well-funded into 2026," said Alexandre P. Boivin, President & CEO. "These funds will allow us to deepen our work at the Tahami South project while expanding efforts across the broader portfolio. We're committed to smart, disciplined execution and are very encouraged by the high conviction backing we've received."
The proceeds from the Offering will be used to advance the Company's exploration programs, including drilling at the Tahami South project and follow-up work on regional copper-gold and gold targets, as well as for general working capital.
Clarification on Finder's Fees and Warrants
The Company wishes to clarify that a cash commission of $16,800 was paid and 48,000 broker warrants were issued in connection with the Offering. However, as previously disclosed, no commissions or other broker compensation were paid on the strategic investment that drove the upsizing.

Insider Participation

Each of the subscriptions from insiders constitutes a "related party transaction" pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company has relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(a) thereof, respectively, as the common shares of the Company are not listed on a specified market and neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involved the related parties, exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).

Mr. Wahl's appointment reinforces Quimbaya's commitment to building a high-caliber leadership team capable of advancing its ambitious vision in Colombia and delivering value to shareholders.

This is a pivotal moment for Quimbaya, and we're just getting started."
Strategic Alignment and Validation
The participation of Mr. Iacono, who played a pivotal role in the revival of the Colombian gold sector, signals high conviction in Quimbaya's assets and leadership. His investment marks a strong endorsement of the Company's solid Portfolio and in particular its drill-ready Tahami Project in the Middle Cauca Belt, one of Colombia's most prolific gold districts.
"I believe Quimbaya is uniquely positioned at the intersection of geology, timing, and leadership. The team is aligned, the land is exceptional, and in this rising gold environment the moment is now," said Mr. Iacono. "I'm excited to support a company that understands what it takes to build a real gold story in Colombia."Â

Early-stage exploration results align with proven discovery model in the Segovia district.
Quimbaya Gold Inc. (CSE: QIM) (OTCQB: QIMGF) (FSE: K05) ("Quimbaya Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce initial results from the recently initiated field programs at its Tahami South Gold Project in Antioquia, Colombia. Current work includes detailed geological mapping, rock channel sampling, stream sediment surveys, and soil sampling, all designed to refine and prioritize targets ahead of the Company's maiden drill campaign scheduled to commence in Q2 2025 (Figure 1).
The Tahami South Project is located within one of Colombia's most prolific gold-producing regions, the Segovia-Zaragoza belt and sits just 1.8 kilometres northeast of Aris Mining's flagship Segovia operation, which contains over 13.8 million ounces of gold, and continues to host one of the country's most robust resource bases (Historical production 7,962 Moz, M &I resources 3,629 Moz, inferred resource 1,823 Moz; Wilson & Redwood, 2010; De Marc et al., 2023).
Recent surface exploration by Quimbaya Gold has further validated the geological prospectivity of the area, returning high-grade gold values up to Au@ 11.21 g/t & Ag@ 6 g/t for grab rock, and Au@ 1.4 g/t & Ag@ 23.3 g/t for panel rock sample, supported by classic epithermal pathfinder geochemistry and strong structural control (figure 2). Together, these results align closely with known mineralization styles in the district and provide a robust technical foundation for the Company's upcoming drill campaign in Q2 2025 - an initiative aimed at unlocking a potentially significant high-grade vein system along this underexplored extension of the Segovia trend.
Key Technical Highlights
Surface rock sampling at Tahami South returned high-grade gold values up to 11.21 g/t Au, with multiple samples exceeding 1 g/t, supporting the company's thesis of a robust precious metal system at surface. These results were generated from 60 channel and grab samples across 144 hectares of jungle-covered terrain - an early-stage success that underscores the potential of the target area.
In addition to strong gold values, the geochemical suite includes consistently elevated levels of key pathfinder elements such as arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn) - all characteristic of epithermal to intermediate sulfidation systems found along the Segovia-Zaragoza trend. Select samples also returned anomalous Molybdenum values up to Mo@ 70 ppm, further supporting the potential for structural overprinting or hybrid mineralizing events. Collectively, these signatures reinforce the project's alignment with the geological architecture and mineralization styles that have yielded some of Colombia's most significant gold discoveries.
The company's use of geologic mapping, Lidar, and systematic geochemical sampling follows discovery techniques that, as documented by Dr. Stewart Redwood, have accounted for the majority of significant gold finds in Antioquia over the past 50 years.
This detailed technical groundwork is a deliberate and essential step in Quimbaya's exploration strategy, helping to refine and prioritize the most compelling targets for the Company's upcoming drill campaign in Q2 2025. By advancing this program with precision and discipline, the team is building a stronger foundation for success - one rooted in geological confidence and targeting certainty. These early-stage results not only validate the exploration model but also enhance the Company's conviction in the broader potential of Tahami South as a district-scale, high-grade gold system.
"Tahami South exhibits all the essential hallmarks of a fertile gold system at the reconnaissance stage: strong surface gold grades, well-developed quartz-sulfide veining, and a classic pathfinder suite including arsenic, antimony, lead, and zinc - all within a structural corridor that aligns with known productive trends in Antioquia. These are the types of indicators that have preceded many of Colombia's most significant discoveries. When supported by systematic mapping and geochemistry, as Quimbaya is doing here, such signatures significantly enhance the probability of drilling into a meaningful mineralized system." Dr. Stewart D. Redwood, Economic Geologist & SEG Fellow.

Connecting Structure, Geochemistry and Scale
Exploration at Tahami South is being guided by a disciplined, model-driven approach that integrates structural mapping, geochemical data, and high-resolution topographic analysis to define the structural controls on mineralization. Recent work has outlined a network of northeast- and east-west-trending quartz veins and hydrothermal breccias hosted within andesitic and intrusive rocks - a structural architecture closely aligned with productive corridors in the Segovia district. Lidar interpretation and field mapping have revealed vein exposures and alteration zones that correlate with elevated gold and pathfinder element values, including arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn). These features, taken together, suggest an intermediate-sulfidation epithermal system with potential for multiple mineralized shoots. The geochemical vectoring - particularly where pathfinder anomalies overlap key structural intersections - is now informing high-priority targets as the Company prepares for its inaugural drill campaign. The scale and coherence of these features suggest the potential for a significant mineralized system emerging within an underexplored extension of the Segovia trend.
"Everything we're seeing tells us we may be sitting on something significant, and that's why we're taking a disciplined and methodical approach. When you test a system like this for the first time, it is very important to get everything right, and this foundation gives us strong conviction heading into our upcoming drill campaign, and we're excited about what's ahead."

Canadian Gold Resources Ltd. (TSXV: CAN) ("Canadian Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received all required permits from the Government of Québec to proceed with a bulk sampling program with plans to test between 5,000 to 10,000 tonnes of mineralized materials at its 100%-owned Lac Arsenault Gold Project, located in the Gaspé region of eastern Québec. The bulk sample is intended for exploration purposes only and is not considered a production decision.
As a condition of the permit, the Company is required to drill three (3) shallow water monitoring wells in the vicinity of the proposed sampling area to identify potential groundwater presence. If water tables are encountered, baseline water quality testing will be conducted both before and after the program. Canadian Gold fully supports this requirement as part of its commitment to responsible exploration and environmental stewardship.
Next Steps
With permits secured, Canadian Gold will now begin preparations for mobilizing personnel and equipment to site. In the coming weeks, the Company will finalize agreements with drilling, excavation, and haulage contractors, complete the required water wells, and install temporary infrastructure to support safe operations near the Baker and Mersereau veins. Once site preparation is complete, material sampling is anticipated to commence and continue for approximately three weeks. The sampled material will be transported to a third-party facility for off-site processing and analysis. Updates will be provided as results become available, including recoveries and implications for future exploration planning.
Management Commentary
Ron Goguen, President & CEO of Canadian Gold, commented:
"Receiving this permit is a major milestone in the advancement of our Lac Arsenault Project. This program is designed to evaluate the technical and geological characteristics of the near-surface mineralization. Historical work conducted by Imperial and Esso Minerals in the 1970s reported a historical estimate of approximately 40,000 tonnes grading 15.43 g/t gold and 197 g/t silver (Stevenson, L., 1975, Geological Report on the Lac Arsenault Property, Esso Minerals Canada). A subsequent 1996 report revised the estimate to 199,580 tonnes grading 9.59 g/t gold, or approximately 61,536 contained ounces (Côté, R., 1996, Lac Arsenault Project Resource Evaluation, Unpublished Internal Report). While these historical estimates do not comply with current CIM standards, they indicate strong historical interest in this high-grade system. Additional core drilling, systematic surface sampling, and database verification will be required to validate the data and assess whether a current resource can be defined."
Clarification on Economic Potential
While Canadian Gold is encouraged by the opportunity to generate technical and metallurgical data from the bulk sample, no economic analysis has been completed, and there are no mineral reserves at Lac Arsenault. Any references to possible revenue from sample processing are entirely speculative and do not demonstrate economic viability. There is no production decision and no feasibility study has been conducted. Should positive results occur, proceeds may be allocated toward working capital, additional exploration, or future shareholder returns, but no production decision or dividend policy has been made at this time. There is no assurance that results will support future exploration or development decisions.

Historical Resource Estimate Disclosure (NI 43-101 2.4)
The Company refers to the following historical estimates:
These historical estimates were based on underground sampling and trenching using manual polygonal methods. The estimates are relevant as they reflect historical interpretations, but they pre-date NI 43-101 and do not comply with current CIM Definition Standards. A Qualified Person has not completed sufficient work to classify the estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. The Company is not treating the estimates as current, and further verification is required.
To bring these historical estimates into compliance with current CIM standards, the Company anticipates conducting:
The Company believes the planned exploration bulk sample will provide critical geological, grade continuity, and metallurgical information to support this process.
About the Lac Arsenault Project
The Lac Arsenault Project is located in Québec's Gaspé region and hosts multiple high-grade epithermal-style vein systems including the Baker, Mersereau, and Dunning veins. The project lies along the Grand Pabos Fault, a regional structure within the Gaspé-Newfoundland tectonic belt that shares characteristics with other productive gold systems, such as the Cadillac-Larder Lake Fault Zone (Abitibi) and the Cape Ray-Valentine Lake Shear Zone (Newfoundland), which are known to host multi-million-ounce deposits.
