Barton Gold Challenger Assays Extend New Open Pittable Mineralisation Targeting new JORC Mineral Resources at ‘Challenger 3’ target

 

 

Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD, OTCQB:BGDFF, FRA:BGD3) (Barton or Company) is pleased to announce further assay results from recent drilling at its South Australian Challenger Gold Project (Challenger).

These assays come from the CSSW Deposit and ‘Challenger 3’ target, both of which are potential new open pits.

Challenger is the site of the Company’s fully permitted Central Gawler Mill (CGM). A Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) is underway targeting an initial 3 – 4 year Stage 1 ‘baseline’ operation utilising only historical higher-grade tailings from tailings storage facility 1 (TSF1) and limited, near-surface materials without disturbing Challenger’s
historical high-grade underground mine, its mineralisation or its infrastructure access.

 

HIGHLIGHTS

• 8,065m reverse circulation (RC) Resource upgrade drilling recently completed at Challenger ‘Main’,
‘Challenger West’ (CW) open pits, and ‘Challenger South-Southwest’ (CSSW) and ‘Challenger 3’ targets1
• New assays confirm CSSW and Challenger 3 mineralisation, and support a potential new Challenger 3 JORC (2012) Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE), including:
Hole ID Interval Including:
CHB0197 8m @ 1.68 g/t Au from 55 metres 1m @ 7.64 g/t Au from 57 metres
CHB0204 6m @ 4.46 g/t Au from 30 metres 2m @ 12.1 g/t Au from 30 metres
CHB0206 10m @ 1.33 g/t Au from 44 metres 1m @ 5.61 g/t Au from 46 metres
CHB0213 10m @ 2.28 g/t Au from 33 metres 1m @ 9.12 g/t Au from 42 metres
CHB0222 7m @ 3.28 g/t Au from 30 metres 1m @ 16.5 g/t Au from 30 metres
CHB0225 2m @ 5.12 g/t Au from 30 metres 1m @ 9.17g/t Au from 31 metres
CHB0236 6m @ 1.66 g/t Au from 24 metres 1m @ 6.93 g/t Au from 25 metres
• Recent assays have also identified new high-grade mineralisation up to 170 g/t Au in the ‘Main’ open pit walls, and mineralisation up to 60 g/t Au in the Challenger West open pit floor2
• Challenger DFS underway targeting a viable, simplified ‘baseline’ Stage 1 operation to underwrite restart of CGM and maximise Challenger, Tarcoola, Wudinna and Tolmer development optionality

 

.
Barton Gold Managing Director Alexander Scanlon commented:

“Following recent high-grade assays up to 170 g/t Au and 60 g/t Au from Challenger’s ‘Main’ and ‘West’ open pits, we are pleased to share new assays confirming significant mineralisation to support potential new adjacent open pits.

 

“This kind of near-surface mineralisation adjacent to our existing Central Gawler Mill provides ideal low-risk feed to de-risk an operational restart at Challenger. We look forward to sharing further Challenger updates soon.”

Altair Minerals SOKO returns 35g/t Au & Targets Strengthen into Drilling

 

 

.

Altair Minerals Limited (ASX: ALR) (‘Altair’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce results of PoleDipole survey and final report from its Phase I ground geophysics at SOKO, consisting of: Gradient IP Chargeability and Resistivity Survey covering 3.6km N-S strike with 64km of lines

Pole-Dipole Survey covering 3.0km N-S strike with 14km of lines 
Ground Magnetic Survey covering 3.6km N-S strike with 64km of lines

In addition, Altair is pleased to report second batch of grab samples from SOKO. The grab samples were taken both within trenches during executing sampling and logging, and at surface during access clearing for trench excavation.

This batch of grab samples at SOKO returned results of 34.56g/t Au and 27.21g/t Au within Trench 6, which is the first deep trench at SOKO (~6m depth). 

 

 

.

Altair Minerals Limited CEO, Faheem Ahmed, commented:

“The Pole-Dipole survey has delivered highly valuable information for both follow up geochemical programs and drill targeting, with the key structures identified aligning closely with existing soil anomalies and favourable geological contacts.

 

“Structure ‘M’ continues to stand out as a priority target, representing a deep-seated chargeability anomaly interpreted to be confined between two competent rock units.

 

“Importantly, the structure demonstrates exceptional continuity across survey sections, extending over an impressive ~2.5km strike length and maintaining a substantial width of approximately 150-250m.

 

“While structure ‘N’ covers a shorter strike extent, it remains highly compelling due to its significant width and deep-tapping nature, situated right below a geochemical high. The anomaly is supported by both chargeability and resistivity responses and coincides with a distinct gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly, further enhancing its prospectivity.

 

“Furthermore, the magnetic inversion modelling has provided further clarity on the regional structural controls, reaffirming key deformation zones and improving our understanding of the orientations that will guide Altair’s ongoing geochemical follow-up and drilling programs.

 

“During trench sampling and geological logging, Altair has periodically collected grab samples prospective lithologies and exposed mineralised zones encountered both within the trenches and along cleared access routes. Encouragingly, a grab sample from the Company’s first deep trench at SOKO returned the highest grade recorded at the project to date, assaying an outstanding 34.56g/t Au.

 

“The duricrust profile across SOKO is generally 3–4m thick, with shallow trenches of approximately 3m depth typically remaining within anomalous lateritic material. In contrast, deeper trenches reaching approximately 6m depth into the saprolite horizon are beginning to demonstrate indications of potential primary mineralisation, despite the material remaining largely weathered and leached.

 

“Our exploration continues to accelerate on all fronts, with the team currently planning for scaling up programs at both NP and SOKO, which we look forward to updating the market upon finalisation.

 

“Importantly, diamond drilling is scheduled to commence at NP in the coming week.”

Cabral Gold Drills 10.2m @ 8.7 g/t gold including

1.3m @ 62.5 g/t gold at Jerimum Cima Target,

Cuiú Cuiú Gold District, Brazil 

.

Vancouver, British Columbia – May 13, 2026 – Cabral Gold Inc. (“Cabral” or the “Company”) (TSXV: CBR) (OTCQX: CBGZF) is pleased to announce results from 2 additional diamond drill holes at the Jerimum Cima target and 4 diamond drill holes at the MG gold deposit within the Cuiú Cuiú Gold District, Brazil.

 

Highlights

  • Recent drilling at the Jerimum Cima target, located 3km ENE of the Central gold deposit and 3.5km NW of the MG gold deposit at Cuiú Cuiú, returned 10.2m @ 8.7 g/t gold from 99.5m depth including 1.3m @ 62.5 g/t gold from 108.4m depth in hole DDH378
  • The zone intersected in DDH378 is interpreted to be the same zone intersected by previous drill holes which include DDH372 and recently returned 9.5m @ 87.4 g/t gold including 2.9m @ 285.5 g/t gold as well as other holes which returned 45.6m @ 4.5 g/t gold including 1.5m @ 117.26 g/t gold, and 82.6m @ 0.98 g/t including 9.5m @ 5.74 g/t gold 

 

  • These recent drill results suggest the presence of an E-W trending high-grade zone extending for at least 455 metres which appears to form the core of a larger mineralized system at Jerimum Cima

 

  • In addition, drilling at the MG gold deposit returned 10.3m @ 1.45 g/t gold from 152.2m depth in hole DDH361DDH358 also returned 7.2m @ 1.12 g/t gold from 270.4m depth and 8.7m @ 1.11 g/t gold from 302.0m depth

 

 

Alan Carter, Cabral’s President and CEO commented,

 “The Jerimum Cima target is located 3km ENE of the Central gold deposit and 3.5km NW of the MG gold deposit, and is not currently part of the existing resource base at Cuiú Cuiú.

 

“Ongoing drilling continues to suggest that we have an important discovery on our hands at Jerimum Cima. DDH378 returned 10.2m @ 8.7 g/t gold from 99.5m depth including 1.3m @ 62.5 g/t gold. This hole was drilled 205m east of DDH372 which recently returned 9.5m @ 87.4 g/t gold including 2.9m @ 285.5 g/t gold. 

 

“We believe this to be the same high-grade mineralized zone which has now been traced for 455m along strike and remains open to the east. The broader E-W trending mineralized zone however is significantly larger and is up to 200m wide and extends at least E-W for 750m along strike.

 

“We look forward to additional results in the near term as our drill program ramps up.”

Equinox Gold and Orla Mining Combine to Create North America’s New Senior Gold Producer: Built to Grow, Built to Last

 

Combined company expected to produce 1.1 million ounces of gold annually with a clear path to more than 1.9 million ounces of gold from North American growth assets

 

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —Equinox Gold Corp. (TSX: EQX, NYSE American: EQX) (“Equinox”) and Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA, NYSE American: ORLA) (“Orla”, and together with Equinox, the “Companies”) are pleased to announce that the Companies have entered into a definitive arrangement agreement (the “Agreement”) for an at-market combination to create a new North American senior gold producer with approximately 1.1 million ounces of expected annual gold production and an $18.5 billion implied market capitalization.

.

The combined company will be anchored by three long-life Canadian gold mines, with a clear path to more than 1.9 million ounces of annual gold production from an internally funded North American growth pipeline.

.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Equinox will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Orla pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement (the “Transaction”).

The combined company will continue under the name “Equinox Gold Corp.”(“Equinox Gold”).All dollar amounts are in United States dollars unless otherwise indicated.

.

Equinox and Orla will host a conference call and webcast to discuss the Transaction commencing at 8:30 am Eastern Time on May 13, 2026. Details are provided at the end of this news release.

.

Under the terms of the Agreement, Orla shareholders will receive 1.00 Equinox common share (the “Exchange Ratio”) and a nominal cash payment of $0.0001 for each Orla common share held immediately prior to the effective time of the Transaction (the “Effective Time”).

Upon completion of the Transaction, existing Equinox shareholders and former Orla shareholders will own approximately 67% and 33% of the outstanding common shares of the combined company, respectively, on a fully diluted in-the-money basis.

.

Strategic Rationale of the Transaction
The combination of Equinox and Orla creates:

  • North America’s new senior gold producer :1.1 million ounces of expected annual gold production from a highly complementary portfolio of six North American mines, underpinned by a significant endowment of approximately 23 million ounces of Proven & Probable Mineral Reservesiii
  • Peer leading, growth profile to more than 1.9 million ounces annually: Clear path to more than 800,000 ouncesiiof near-term gold production growth from the Valentine phase 2 expansion in Canada, South Railroad and Castle Mountain in the U.S., and Los Filos and Camino Rojo underground in Mexico
  • Second largest producer of Canadian gold: Equinox’s Greenstone mine (“Greenstone”) in Ontario, its Valentine mine (“Valentine”) in Newfoundland & Labrador, and Orla’s Musselwhite mine (“Musselwhite”) in Ontario, are expected to collectively produce 685,000 ounces of gold in 2026i, with significant potential for production growth and mine life extension from expansion and exploration upside
  • Substantial free cash flow generation and robust financial position: Combined free cash flowivprofile of approximately $1.4 billion in 2026 based on current analyst consensus estimates; combined entity expected to have $1.4 billion of total available liquidityivto drive growth and continued shareholder returns
  • Industry leading value creation team of mine builders and operators: A proven track record of shareholder value creation led by Chuck Jeannes, Darren Hall, and Jason Simpson, with ongoing support from Ross Beaty, Pierre Lassonde, and Prem Watsa and certain affiliates of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited
  • Balanced portfolio offers scale and optionality: Six producing assets and four growth projects across four countries (Canada, U.S., Mexico, and Nicaragua) provide immediate operating strength, project sequencing flexibility, known near-mine exploration upside, and longer-term optionality
  • Significant re-rate potential based on peers’ valuation: Combined company offers greater scale, lower risk, peer-leading production growth underpinned by a sizeable Mineral Reserve endowment, and superior free cash flow, providing significant re-rating potential.

 

 

.

Darren Hall, Chief Executive Officer of Equinox, stated:

“Today is an incredibly exciting day for both Equinox and Orla shareholders as we announce a business combination that creates a senior North American gold producer with increased scale, high-quality long-life assets, and one of the strongest organic growth pipelines in the sector.

“The combined company will produce 1.1 million ounces of gold in 2026 from a North American portfolio and enables a funded, tier-1 platform with the capacity to deliver a 70% growth trajectory to 1.9 million ounces, all while maintaining jurisdictional simplicity.

“By combining our operating teams, financial strength, and complementary asset bases, we are creating a differentiated North American gold producer with the scale, growth profile, and asset quality to drive a meaningful re-rate and deliver long-term value for shareholders.”

.

Jason Simpson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Orla, stated:

“Orla was built on a simple idea: Acquire the right assets, develop them with discipline, and operate them well.

“That philosophy fits naturally with what Equinox has built — two companies with complementary assets, shared values, and a track record of continued execution and delivering on operational results.

“Together, we have the production base, the balance sheet, and the team to compete at a level otherwise unattainable by either company on its own – combined, this is a truly special company. “

The Canadian cornerstone assets provide the foundation that very few gold producers can match, and I am proud of what both teams have built to get here. With continued operational focus, we will have substantial financial flexibility to fund our peer-leading growth and continue to return capital to shareholders.”

121 Mining Conference London Day 2

A much quieter day today, visibly less people than Day 1

Given the healthy state of precious metal and base metal prices, many participants were mystified at the lack of a buzz in what should have been a vibrant conference.

I am at a loss to explain it, some blamed the new organisers of the conference, but I can’t see how it’s their fault, they have retained the same format, and it works in my opinion.

A couple of own goals were scored by the organisers though. Firstly in order to be seen to be environmentally friendly they gave out the most awful cardboard badge on a lanyard, which immediately curled up and defeated the purpose of wearing it as it could no longer be read.

The second issue was the conference location signs were in booth number order, rathen than in alphabetical order of exhibiting mining companies. This made it necessary to search through the entire list trying to find the next company on the schedule, and I heard no end of complaints from fellow investors about this.

Apart from that, some people moaned about the venue location, but Aldgate East tube is a 5 minute walk away, which is very reasonable, so no venue concerns from me.

 

+++++++

 

I had 6 meetings arranged today, but only managed 5 as STLLR Gold entered the Hall of Shame.

The conference format is each meeting lasts 30 minutes, and then stops as investors rotate to other companies. Sometimes meetings overrun, and that’s Ok to a point. I have a 7 minute rule, if I’m waiting 7 minutes past the planned start and another meeting is stil in progress, I walk away, done.

In my opinion it’s disrespectul to ignore the next meeting and keep me waiting, thus reducing my time with the company. So, once 7 minutes has passed I walk away. STLLR Gold was a new company for me, and I was interested to hear the story, but it won’t happen now.

 

+++++++

 

Of the other companies I had arranged to meet, and who respected peoples’ time, I had five really interesting meetings.

Revival Gold is an Idaho based gold exploration company, funded through to a production decision in Q1 2028. A PFS is due in Q1 2027. Two projects, Mercur, and the  Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project.

Revival has an impressive list of institutional investors including Dundee, Konwave, US Global, and Libra, which, in my opinion, validates the projects to a degree.

Greenheart Gold was spun out of Reunion gold when it was acquired by G Mining Ventures, and has one project in Guyana, and three projects in Suriname, all early stage. Worth keeping an eye on, too early stage for my current focus though.

Aftermath Silver is a catchup for me as I have met the company before. THe next catalyst is a PFS due late 2026 or early 2027. This is a silver story with copper and manganese, and another one to follow with interest.

GoGold Resources is a story I have followed for a few years, and there looks to be the potential for an immediate catalyst in that there is a feeling the long awaited permit for the Los Ricos South project is imminent.

The company are currently earning around C$100m PA producing from a silver tailings project at Parral. The company can fund the Los Ricos South contruction cost from existing funds and future production revenue.

The C$1 billion market cap looks conservative when one considers the C$270 million in the bank and C$100 million revenue per annum, in my opinion.

ASX Listed AIC Mines, where I’m a shareholder, rounded off my day. AIC own the operating Eloise copper gold mine, and are developing the Jericho deposit to increase production in the near term.

I am intending to increase my position in AIC in the near future.

121 Mining Conference London Day 1

Another appalling performance from South Western Railways resulted in me missing my first two meetings after a cancelled train mid-journey.

People on a 10 busy 10 coach train had to de-train at Southampton Airport, and, after waiting 30 minutes, then had to join a 5 coach train that was already busy. Needless to say it was like a packed tube train in the rush hour.

Not a great start to the day, arriving at the conference and going straight into a meeting after such an awful journey.

 

+++++++

 

The conference was relatively busy, but the number of participating companies seemed smaller than last time to me.

Due to my late arrival I missed meetings with Nicola Mining and Americas Gold and Silver, both of whom I was looking forward to meeting.

I met Kemorland Minerals, an interesting project generator, but it didn’t excite me.

I then had interesting meetings with a couple of stocks that I already hold, Silver Storm Mining, and Omai Gold Mines.

Silver Storm Mining is set to commence production within the next six weeks or so, and one would hope for a nice kick in the share price when that occurs. All is currently on track, so here’s hoping for a high silver price to accompany the production announcement.

Omai Gold Mines has a PEA ongoing with a release date of around July, which should be a catalyst for a higher share price. Gold resources should be around 8 million ounces or so.

Copper Giant was the first of the new companies I met today, copper exploration in southern Colombia, in a prolific copper belt. I liked the story and will research further, and possibly add it to the tier 4 watchlist.

I also met ASX listed Antipa Minerals and Canadian gold explorer Xali Gold, both of whom I will keep an eye on but I didn’t feel as though there was an immediate reason to invest.

+++++++

 

All in all some interesting meetings and, as a result, I may well increase my shareholding in Silver Storm, and am looking at initial investments in Omai Gold and Copper Giant when the market settles down a bit.

Drilling at Trident continues to extend mineralisation – Potential for Trident Resource to continue to grow

 

 

Catalyst Metals Limited (Catalyst or the Company) (ASX:CYL) is pleased to report drilling results at the Trident deposit, located on the Plutonic Gold Belt.

Results from the most recent drilling have been focussed on Resource infill drilling and
extension drilling at the edges of the current Resource. Many of these intercepts lay outside of the Resource envelope, indicating the potential for Trident Resource to continue to grow.

Catalyst Metals’ flagship asset is the 40km long Plutonic Gold Belt in Western Australia.

 

.

Highlights

• Trident is an underground deposit located 30km north-east of the underutilised Plutonic processing plant
• It is the largest of the five mines to be developed as part of Catalyst’s plan to increase
annual gold production at Plutonic from ±100koz to ±200koz
• Drilling at Trident has continued while exploration activities at the nearby Old Highway,
Cinnamon and K2 deposits ramped up in an attempt to continue building out the Plutonic Belt’s mine life
• Exploration at Trident has continued to be successful. The drilling that has occurred has targeted conversion of the Inferred Resourced and testing extensions of the known
mineralisation
• Below are the results of recent drilling program targets:
o 7m at 40.5g/t Au o 8m at 12.4g/t Au o 6m at 12.2g/t Au
o 17m at 15.4g/t Au o 7m at 14.4g/t Au o 3m at 23.2g/t Au
o 9m at 22.1g/t Au o 6m at 15.8g/t Au o 10m at 6.8g/t Au
o 14m at 9.2g/t Au o 7m at 11.7g/t Au o 4m at 13.9g/t Au
o 21m at 5.1g/t Au o 10m at 7.8g/t Au o 11m at 5.5g/t Au
• Mining of a small open pit, from which the underground decline will be established, was recently completed
• The projects team has begun establishing the portal with the underground decline to
commence once the portal is established
• Trident was the focus of a substantial drilling program during 2025. In August 2025,
Catalyst provided an update of this program which included a doubling of Reserves to
397koz at 5.3g/t Au and a significant increase in Resources to 795koz at 5.0g/t
• With these attractive intercepts well outside the Trident Resource envelope, the visibility
to a +10 year mine life at ±60koz per annum grows clearer
• Once the mine is established, a further drill program will be completed to fill out the tail
end of this +10 year plan
• Exploration focus has turned to growing mine lives at other deposits such as Old Highway,
K2 and more recently Cinnamon, in an effort for Catalyst to diversify into as many ore
sources as possible – a strategy it believes is key to its longer term business plan.

 

 

This belt currently produces ~100koz pa at an AISC of ±A$2,300/oz from three mines at Plutonic, Plutonic East and Trident open pit.

Catalyst is currently bringing three new mines into production – Trident UG, Old Highway and Cinnamon.

Each will be processed through the existing, underutilised and centrally located 2Mtpa CIL processing plant.

Exploration is targeting down dip extensions of each of these deposits. With the development and exploration of these five deposits, Catalyst aims to increase Reserves and production from 1.5Moz to ±2Moz and ±100koz to ±200koz annually.

In so doing, Catalyst is aiming for Plutonic to have a 10 year mine life – a unique and rare proposition for an underground Western Australian gold mine.

 

 

.

Catalyst’s Managing Director & CEO, James Champion de Crespigny, commented:

 

“The drilling programs at Trident have delivered a Resource base which will underwrite a 10 year mine plan at ±60koz per annum. In time, we expect continued drilling will convert this Resource base into Reserves.

 

“Catalyst’s business plan is to have multiple ore sources to feed the Plutonic processing plant for the reason that by doing so, Plutonic becomes a more stable, long term, lower cost operating centre able to provide sustained exposure to gold.

 

“To achieve this, and to build out inventory from multiple different sources, drilling at other prospects like Cinnamon, Old Highway and K2 become very important.

 

“Accordingly, these projects are consuming exploration resources now that Trident has such an established mine life. Once Trident is up and running, we will return and fill in the drilling at depth to further extend its life.”

Tolmer Yields >100,000 g/t Silver Trial Gravity Concentrate
Metallurgical evaluation started, follow up drilling expedited for mid-May

 

.

Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD, OTCQB:BGDFF, FRA:BGD3) (Barton or Company) is pleased to announce the results of a preliminary analysis of sample mineralisation collected from drilling at its high-grade Tolmer Silver prospect (Tolmer), located at its South Australian Tarcoola Gold Project (Tarcoola).

Tolmer is one of Australia’s highest-grade modern silver discoveries, identified during 2025 in a discovery hole which yielded a peak intersection of 6m @ 4,747 g/t Ag (plus 4m @ 13.2 g/t Au).

 

.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Preliminary test yields high-grade concentrate grading over 100,000 g/t Ag (10% silver)
• Trial concentrate to support preliminary evaluation of Tolmer petrology and paragenesis utilising scanning electron microscopy (SEM); leading geological consultant engaged
• ~4,000m follow up drilling expedited for May 2026 to infill high-grade assays, test extensions.

 

The mineralisation from this hole has now been dried, washed with a basic detergent, and panned to produce a concentrate for evaluation utilising scanning electron microscopy, which will assist in designing a full metallurgical testwork program.
This test has produced a concentrate grading >100,000 g/t Ag (~10% silver) from a simple gravity process, without any grinding, roasting or the use of chemical reagents.

The ability to produce exceptionally high-grade concentrates without hydrometallurgical or pyrometallurgical processes could have potential implications for low-cost, high-margin operations if this is consistent for the mineralisation.

Barton has now expedited a ~4,000m RC drilling follow up program, anticipated to begin mid-May 2026.

The objective is to further develop Tolmer’s local geological knowledge, infill data, and test potential extensions indicated by soil assays around numerous drill intercepts exceeding 2,000 gram-metres Ag.

N.B

Barton notes the above results are from a subsample of prepared materials and are not representative of all Tolmer mineralisation.

Comprehensive quantitative metallurgical testwork is required to evaluate potential
commercial viability. Barton has engaged a leading geological consultant to conduct a preliminary evaluation of this Tolmer mineralisation and assist in the design of a detailed metallurgical testwork program.

 

 

.
 Barton MD Alexander Scanlon Commented,

“We are excited to receive these exceptional preliminary concentration results.

 

“There is clearly something very different going on at Tolmer, not only in terms of the degree of silver enrichment in the oxide and transitional zones, but also as to the dominant presence of primary silver in the veining below the ‘western silver zone’ observed in recent drilling.

 

“This is entirely distinct from the rest of the Tarcoola Goldfield, where gold is dominant, and raises exciting possibilities.

 

“Detailed metallurgical testwork is now required, but the prospective ability to concentrate Tolmer’s silver from just a simple, gravity based process is also exciting.

 

“For context, one tonne of concentrate grading over 100,000 g/t Ag would today contain over $300,000 worth of silver – before attributing any value for contained gold by-product credits.

 

“Our emerging silver portfolio is a potentially significant contributor to our regional strategy. We are excited to now be accelerating our Tolmer investigation in parallel with programs to upgrade our Tolmer gold and silver Resources.”

G2 Goldfields Extends High-Grade OKO Resource to Depths of 1km, Intercepts 84.5m @ 3.0 g/t Au

.

.

 

TORONTO, May 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — G2 Goldfields Inc.(“G2” or the “Company”) (TSX: GTWO) is pleased to report new assay results from its ongoing diamond drilling program at the Company’s OKO Project in Guyana (“OKO” or the “Project”).

The latest drilling successfully extended high-grade shoots down-plunge at the Ghanie deposit, upgraded and confirmed central infill mineralization, and extended gold mineralization south of the existing Ghanie resource along the “Border Zone”.

On April 9, 2026, G2 entered into a definitive agreement whereby neighbouring G Mining Ventures Corp. (“GMIN”) will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of G2 pursuant to a court approved plan of arrangement, expected to close in June 2026, subject to shareholder and court approvals.

In December 2025, G2 released key findings from an independent Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”)[see press release dated December 18, 2025] outlining a combined open pit and underground operation with a 14-year mine life and estimate total production of 3.2 million ounces gold at all-in sustaining costs¹ (“AISC”) of US$1,191 per ounce.

Annual production is projected to average 298,000 ounces during years 3 through 10.

.

Highlights

  • Deepest hole drilled to date by G2 returned 84.5m @ 3.0 g/t Au from 915m, extending mineralization by 140m vertically to 1km, where it remains open
  • Eight drill rigs actively focused on infill, expansion and discovery drilling, with infill holes returning high-grade intercepts, including GDD270 which returned 20.8m @ 9.6 g/t Au incl. 4.4m @ 36.1 g/t Au
  • Drilling in the “Border Zone” continues to extend gold mineralization south of the existing Ghanie resource, with a high-grade interval of 3.0m @ 10.8 g/t Au from 490m, building on strong prior results in this area

Assay results are reported herein for 22 new diamond drill holes completed within the Ghanie deposit, totalling 10,828 metres (“m”).

.

High-Grade Extensions at Depth

Deep drilling continues to extend high-grade mineralization down plunge from the central portion of the Ghanie resource, following up on prior strong results from hole GDD256A, which returned 50.0m @ 2.4 g/t Au (incl. 23.5m @ 4.0g/t Au) from 862m (see press release dated January 6, 2026).

New hole GDD277B returned 84.5m @ 3.0 g/t Au, including 6.0m @ 13.4 g/t Au and 16.4m @ 4.5 g/t Au, representing the deepest intercept at the Oko Project to date and extending mineralization by an additional 140m vertically to 1km where it remains open.

In addition, GGD271A intercepted 1.5m @ 8.1 g/t Au, 3.0m @ 6.1 g/t Au and 3.0m @ 5.8 g/t Au and ended in mineralization at 954m.

These intercepts occur within the principal Ghanie shear zone along the contact between Ghanie diorite and magnetite diorite host rocks, consistent with the Company’s geological model.

These results demonstrate economic widths and grades well beyond the limits of the current mineral resource and highlight the continued growth potential of the Ghanie gold system.

Vicuña Update: Initial Drilling Finds Large-Scale, Shallow Gold-Copper System

 

May 1, 2026 – Mogotes Metals Inc. (TSXV: MOG, FSE:OY4, OTCQB: MOGMF) (“Mogotes”, or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the discovery of a large, shallow gold breccia system and an underlying gold-copper-molybdenum porphyry at its Cruz del Sur target, part of the Filo Sur project in Argentina’s Vicuña district.

The system spans a 4.0 x 0.5 km geophysical footprint, sits at a lower elevation relative to other targets, is largely concealed by thin cover and remains open in all directions and at depth.

This release presents results from the Cruz del Sur and Stockwork Hills prospects (figures 1-3). Drilling continues at the prospective northern Luz del Sol – Meseta target cluster (figure 4) and will proceed as long as the season permits, with assays from this area anticipated in June.

 

.

Highlights

• New near-surface gold-zinc breccia discovery:24 m at 1.01 g/t Au(FS_DDH_007) within120 m at 0.52 g/t Aufrom just 24 m depth

• Underlying gold-copper porphyry confirmed:62 m at 0.62 g/t Au and 800 ppm Cu(FS_DDH_006) within a 258 m interval at 0.36 g/t Au and 744ppm Cu

• Copper grades improving with depth, pointing to higher-grade potential below current drill coverage

• Only a fraction of the largely gravel covered, 4.0 x 0.5 km target footprint has been tested and the system is open along strike and at depth.

 

.

 

Drilling Ongoing at Northern Targets

The drilling program continues at the Luz del Sol – Meseta target cluster to the south of the BHP – Lundin Filo del Sol copper-gold-silver deposit (see figure below). The rigs are drilling at the priority Luz del Sol target, where the Mogotes team has logged encouraging geological features. Assays are expected to be reported in June, subject to laboratory timelines.

 

.

.

Allen Sabet, President and CEO, commented:

“These results mark a genuine discovery – a system we tracked from geophysics through to drill confirmation. Cruz del Sur is large, shallow, and accessible, and it remains open in every direction and at depth.

 

“While these initial intercepts are early-stage, the scale of the footprint and the way copper grades strengthen with depth give us a clear roadmap: chase higher-grade gold in the near-surface breccia, and test the porphyry where the geophysics suggests stronger copper at depth.

 

“In parallel, our rigs are turning at Luz del Sol in the north, where the geology so far is encouraging. Those assays are expected in June.

 

“We have plenty of running room across this large land package and its now clear that there are multiple mineralizing events at play here in the Filo Sur project.”

CAPRICORN REPORTS EXCEPTIONAL RESULTS AT LEXINGTON CONFIRM GROWING UNDERGROUND SCALE AT MGGP

 

 

Capricorn Metals (ASX:CMM) has obtained significant drilling results at the Lexington underground prospect within the Mt Gibson gold project in Western Australia.

The early success of drilling at Lexington, the second underground target to be tested, has significantly extended high-grade underground gold mineralisation at MGGP to over 900 metres of strike and to depths of more than 500 metres below the current reserve pit designs, open in all directions.

 

Highlights

• Exceptional gold intercepts have been returned from the first 7 holes (3,333m) of an 18-hole diamond and RC drilling programme (10,659m) at the Lexington underground prospect at the Mt Gibson Gold Project (MGGP).

• All seven holes assayed to date have intersected significant mineralisation consistent with the style and tenor of the Orion South underground system. Outstanding intercepts include:
• 13.1m @ 13.93g/t Au from 714.9m • 28.6m @ 5.35g/t Au from 431.8m
• 15.9m @ 5.22g/t Au from 643.0m • 23.9m @ 3.32g/t Au from 724.1m
• 11m @ 3.03g/t Au from 329.0m • 9m @ 3.66g/t Au from 443.0m

• All results are outside the current resource envelop with reported intercepts ranging
between 85 to 365 metres below current resources (210 to 470 metres below current open pit ore reserves), giving early confirmatory data to the scale of the underground resource potential of the Lexington zone.

• The Lexington mineralisation domain represents a distinct intrusion-related orogenic gold system, hosted within a major high-strain zone with a higher-grade tenor.
• The drilled zone at Lexington is over 600 metres north along strike from the Orion South underground deposit where Capricorn reported an Underground MRE of 895,000 ounces of gold in November 2025.
• The conceptual study of underground mining at Orion South reported to ASX at the same time was very encouraging for the mining prospects of that deposit and was the basis for both infill drilling at Orion and the extensional step out underground drilling now being reported at Lexington.
• The early success of Lexington drilling has significantly extended high-grade underground gold mineralisation at MGGP to over 900 metres of strike and to depths of more than 500 metres below the current reserve pit designs, remaining open in all directions.

• A further 10,000 metres of diamond drilling is planned for Q4 FY26 to support a
potential maiden Inferred underground Mineral Resource Estimate for Lexington.
• An update to the Orion South underground resource to reflect recent (mostly) infill drilling
and a prefeasibility study based on that resource (prior to inclusion of any resource from
Lexington) are expected to be completed in the current quarter.

 

 

.

Capricorn Executive Chairman, Mark Clark, commented:

“The drilling at Lexington has delivered some of the strongest underground intercepts we have seen at Mt Gibson to date.

 

“These outstanding results highlight the scale, continuity and highgrade tenor of the system defined between Orion South and Lexington, which is now clearly emerging as a major underground discovery with genuine potential to add a significant longlife, high-margin underground mining operation to the Mt Gibson project.

CAPRICE DIVESTS WEST ARUNTA ASSETS FOR $2.89M RETAINING FREE-CARRIED EXPOSURE

 

 

.

Caprice Resources Limited (ASX: CRS) (Caprice or the Company) is pleased to announce it has executed a binding Heads of Agreement (HOA) with Corella Resources Limited (ASX: CR9) (Corella or Purchaser) for the sale of a 75% interest in its West Arunta (Chobe) Project in Western Australia.

The transaction delivers immediate cash, ongoing exposure to any future West Arunta discovery success, and a free carried pathway to development, positioning Caprice to unlock value from the rapidly emerging West Arunta Province (Figure 1) without ongoing expenditure burden.

Disciplined divestment aligns with Caprices’ core focus of rapidly advancing its exciting Island Gold Project to a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and expediting exploration drilling at the Comet and Cuddingwarra Projects in the Murchison Goldfields with Caprice to emerge with $16.5m cash post transaction completion.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Up to $2.89 million total consideration
• $2.70 million cash at completion (inclusive of $50,000 non-refundable deposit)
• $190,000 via the issue of deferred equity in Corella
• 15-25% retained interest in key tenure or conversion to 1.5% NSR
• Free carried through to Decision to Mine
• Corella to sole fund exploration and development
• Continued (free carried) exposure to one of Australia’s most active frontier exploration regions

 

 

Caprice MD, Luke Cox, commented,

“This is a highly compelling transaction that crystallises immediate value for Caprice shareholders while retaining strong exposure to exploration success in one of Australia’s most exciting frontier regions.

 

“Importantly, Caprice maintains a free-carried position through to decision to mine, meaning we benefit from any discovery or resource growth without contributing further capital.

 

“With Corella expected to aggressively advance exploration, this transaction provides a clear pathway to unlock the full potential of the West Arunta Project while allowing Caprice to focus on its core Murchison gold strategy.”

Altair Announce a $28 Million Premium Placement to Endeavour Mining

 

Altair Minerals Limited (ASX: ALR) (‘Altair or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce that is has received a firm commitment from Endeavour Gold Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Endeavour Mining plc for a placement of 656,264,364 fully paid ordinary shares in Altair (Placement Shares) at an issue price of A$0.043 per Placement Share (Placement Price) raising ~A$28.2 million.

The Placement has been exclusive to Endeavour, who is expected to become a 9.90% shareholder of Altair following completion of the Placement

Strengthened treasury to accelerate and set the foundation to transform the scope of
exploration across Greater Oko
▪ Binding commitment of A$28.2 million received via a strategic placement to Endeavour Gold Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Endeavour Mining plc. (LSE: EDV, TSX: EDV, OTCQX:
EDVMF) (“Endeavour”) at an issue price of A$0.043 per share (“Placement”).
▪ The Placement price represents a 5% Premium to Altair’s last closing price, and;
40% Premium to 30-Day VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
11% Premium to 5-Day VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
Placement strengthens Altair’s pro-forma treasury to ~A$40 million setting the transformational foundation for exploration success through aggressive drill-testing across Greater Oko over the coming years – with immediate focus on scaling drilling activities and deploying regional exploration teams on untapped greenstone terrain.
▪ Proceeds of the Placement will support Altair in:
Increasing its current maiden drill program to ~50,000m (25,000m Diamond & 25,000m RAB)
Accelerate drilling through multiple rigs, immediately bringing forth a second RAB.
Accelerate current SOKO geochemical programs, immediately doubling trenching and soils rate
Advancing multiple potential discoveries simultaneously, through our application of systematic exploration to drive success
▪ Endeavour is the largest gold producer in West Africa and ranks in the top 10 senior gold producers worldwide. Upon Placement completion, Endeavour will become a 9.90% shareholder of Altair.
▪ Endeavour applies a bespoke methodology to exploration – leading to 22.4Moz Au (Measured & Indicated) in discoveries since 2016, and is strategically aligned with Altair’s large scale exploration plans and long-term vision at Greater Oko.
▪ Both Altair and Endeavour (the “Parties”) will set up a joint Technical Committee to leverage key technical synergies

The Guiana Shield is a continuation of the West African Birimian greenstone belt. The Parties can apply their collective exploration & development success to maximise value at Greater Oko.

The Parties can mutually elect Endeavour’s Executive Vice President of Exploration, Sonia Scarselli, formerly BHP’s Vice President of Exploration and Xplor, (or her alternate) to join as Special Advisor to the Board and Greater Oko Project.
▪ Endeavour’s investment into Altair demonstrates the growing interest by major mining firms globally into Guyana’s untapped gold industry.

 

,
Altair Minerals Limited CEO, Faheem Ahmed, commented:

“We are excited to add Endeavour as a substantial strategic investor into Altair and to accelerate our Greater Oko exploration programme, leveraging the technical support from one of the most successful gold exploration teams globally.

 

“Endeavour is the largest gold producer in West Africa, renowned for its exploration track record and technical expertise across the West African Birimian Greenstone Belt.

 

“The greenstone belts on the Guiana Shield represent a geological continuity of the Birimian Greenstone Belt, which presents a unique synergy between both companies, allowing Altair to leverage the technical acumen at Endeavour in order to fasttrack exploration success at Greater Oko.

 

“The Greater Oko Project represents a unique consolidated land position in Guyana – where permits are fragmented in ownership and typically each block sits at approximately 4km Sq – presenting a major barrier to entry into one of the most prospective and untapped gold provinces globally.

 

“Greater Oko remains the largest consolidated gold exploration project in the country, with Altair seeking to unlock its value through a multi-year campaign.

 

“Endeavour’s investment into Altair, given their technical expertise in greenstone belt exploration, is a strong endorsement of the prospectivity and scalability of Altair’s land package.

 

“Both companies have a mutual appreciation and understanding for the unique opportunity present at hand with the Greater Oko Project in Guyana, a dominant land position sitting on the last untapped ‘Birimian-Like’ greenstone belt on the planet that sits on a pro-mining and politically stable jurisdiction.

 

“The ambitious exploration goals set by Altair follows a similar strategy set out by Endeavour across their portfolio. Hence, it is pleasing to bring Endeavour as a substantial shareholder, to join us on this journey as we begin scaling exploration and execution, with the added optionality of leaning on their technical support team to fast-track discovery.

 

“This Placement positions Altair to aggressively explore across Greater Oko and deliver exploration success. Immediately, we will seek to scale-up our drill programs while in parallel we increase our logistics and human resources over the coming weeks to prepare for materially larger regional exploration programs.

 

“Altair would like to thank all current and new shareholders for their continued support, and we look forward to updating the market with promising developments over the coming months”

Meeka Metals Announce Mt Holland South Gold Acquisition

Meeka Metals Limited (ASX: MEK) (“Meeka” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has entered into an agreement with unrelated parties to acquire various Mining Tenements surrounding Mt Holland.

The acquisition is subject to Completion and on the key terms and conditions. 

The Mining Tenements host significant gold mineralisation, including at Blue Vein, Bushpig and Razorback gold deposits.

Verification of historical drilling is underway to facilitate the conversion of non-2012 JORC Mineral Resources to 2012 JORC standard. 

.

Highlights

Subject to Completion, Meeka has entered into a binding agreement to acquire
various gold Mining Tenements surrounding Mt Holland, within the Southern Cross
Province of Western Australia.
• Mt Holland is located 375km east of Perth in the Southern Cross Province of the Yilgarn Craton, one of the world’s premier gold provinces.
• The Mining Tenements have a combined area of 71km2 and cover ~24km of north-south striking banded iron formation (“BIF”) units, the principal host of gold mineralisation at Mt Holland
• The area historically produced ~1.2Moz of gold @ 5.12g/t Au prior to 2001 from the Bounty gold mine (not part of the Mining Tenement acquisition) when operations ceased due to the low gold price environment (~$500/oz)
• No significant gold focused exploration has been conducted on the Mining Tenements in the past ~15 years
• Strong exploration potential with little to no drilling below shallow gold intersections or
testing of geochemically anomalous zones along the ~24km of north-south striking interpreted BIF units
Verification of historical drilling is underway to facilitate the conversion of non-2012 JORC Mineral Resources to 2012 JORC standard. The Blue Vein, Bushpig and Razorback gold deposits will be the priority and are expected to take 3-6 months
• Post Completion, an initial 20,000m of systematic drilling will commence, targeting the
~24km of north-south striking BIF units
• The Mining Tenements are strategically located near established regional infrastructure, including accommodation village, sealed airstrip, regional grid power and water, and with direct access via the Marvel Loch-Forrestania road
The cash portion of the acquisition is to be funded by existing cash ($50.1M at 31 March 2026) and operating cashflows
• The Company has a clear strategy to grow and create shareholder value through the discovery, acquisition and development, and this transaction is aligned with that strategy.

 

 

.
Meeka’s Managing Director Tim Davidson said:

“Having historically produced over 1.2Moz of gold, this Archaean greenstone belt is evidently fertile, yet the belt has received very limited modern exploration for gold over the past 15 years. This despite significant past production and strong evidence there is more gold to be found.

 

“The ~24km of north-south striking, gold hosting BIF within the acquired tenure present compelling targets for drilling and we intend to systematically drill out these targets over the next 12-18 months.”

LAHONTAN REPORTS CYANIDE RECOVERIES OF 81% FOR GOLD AND 60%
FOR SILVER AT WEST SANTA FE

 

 

Toronto Ontario, April 13, 2026 – Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSXV:LG, OTCQB:LGCXF, FSE:Y2F) (the “Company” or “Lahontan”) is pleased to announce that analyses of pulp samples from the Company’s 2025 reverse-circulation (“RC”) drilling program show high levels of cyanide (“CN”) extraction for gold and silver that corroborates and validates previous metallurgical testing at Lahontan’s West Santa Fe project.

 

Highlights of the CN test program include:

• CN extractable gold averaged 81% compared to the original fire assay gold values for
individual pulp samples (please graph below). This is a very high CN extraction ratio and greater than the projected gold recovery reported in previous metallurgical testing for West Santa Fe (more below).
• CN extractable silver averaged 60% compared to the original ICP and fire assay analyses (please graph below). This is also a high CN extraction ratio, especially for silver, and is greater than the projected silver recovery reported in previous metallurgical testing.

 

 

.
Kimberly Ann, Lahontan Executive Chair, President, CEO, and Founder commented:

“The results of the CN extractable gold and silver analyses confirm our belief that precious metal mineralization at West Santa Fe is amenable to CN heap leach processing for gold and silver recovery.

 

“Combined with the results of the 2025 RC drilling program, which replicated the gold and silver results from historic drilling, we are checking all the boxes: Exploration will now continue at West Santa Fe, seeking to expand the footprint of the precious metal system in anticipation of the preparation of a Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”)
later this year.”
