Austral Gold Announces Drill Results at Casposo-Manantiales ACN Newswire

Austral Gold Announces Drill Results at Casposo-Manantiales

SYDNEY, AU, Jan 30, 2023 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Austral Gold Limited (ASX: AGD) (TSXV: AGLD) ("Austral") is pleased to announce the results from its recent drilling campaign ("drilling program") at the Casposo-Manantiales Project located in the province of San Juan, Argentina. The Company drilled 4,265 metres of diamond drilling ("DD") in 15 DD holes.Casposo-Manantiales ProjectManantiales Vein Long SectionManantiales Vein Drill-hole mapTable 1: Manantiales and Cerro Amarillo Drill hole ResultsThe focus of the drilling program was to follow up on the results achieved in previous drilling campaigns at the Manantiales vein disclosed in the 27 July 2022 and 26 October 2021 announcements. The follow-up drilling program at the Manantiales vein intercepted high gold grades at the top and bottom of the central ore-shoot, indicating possible continuity at depth. The best two holes intercepted high-grade gold confirming the continuity of mineralisation in the central ore-shoot and opening the upside at depth. During 2022, 6,585 metres were drilled in 27 DD holes and total exploration costs were US$2.8 million.At Cerro Amarillo, which is close to the Manantiales vein (see map below), two holes were drilled; one in Awada (152 metres), and the other in La Puerta (326 metres) to test for new structural and ore controls. Favourable alteration was intercepted with discrete gold anomalies.The AWD-22-003 hole located in the western sector of Awada recognised strong silicification in approximately 50 metres, although with low gold anomalies. At La Puerta, the objective of drill hole LPO-22-004 was to intercept the veins in more favourable host rock, however the structures were intercepted in Oveja Negra Fm without significant gold values.Austral Gold's Chief Executive Officer, Stabro Kasaneva said: "We are pleased to complete the 2022 drilling program of approximately 7,000 metres over two phases at the Casposo-Manantiales project. The outcome of the program was positive with some encouraging assays reported, and we look forward to the design of our next drilling campaign considering our objective to restart mining operations at the Casposo-Manantiales project."Casposo-Manantiales Projecthttps://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/690/152868_26e07484945ba909_002full.jpgManantiales Vein Long Sectionhttps://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/690/152868_26e07484945ba909_003full.jpgManantiales Vein Drill-hole maphttps://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/690/152868_26e07484945ba909_004full.jpgCompetent PersonTechnical information in this media release that relates to Exploration Results is based on work supervised, or compiled on behalf of Robert Trzebski, a Director of the Company.

Queensland Announces Sampling Results Averaging 2.65% Li2O from the Mia Li-1 Occurrence at Its Mia Lithium Property in Quebec, Canada

Vancouver, BC, Dec 21, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Queensland Gold Hills Corp. (TSXV: OZAU) (OTCQB: MNNFF) ("Queensland Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results from surface sampling programs completed on the 86 square kilometre Mia Lithium Property (the "Property") in the James Bay area of Quebec, Canada, by Canadian Mining House, the vendors of the Property ("CMH"), prior to its acquisition by the Company.Figure 1 - 2021 and 2022 Sample SummaryFigure 2 - Mia Lithium Property Regional LocationTable 1 - Results Table, 2021 and 2022 SamplesHighlights:- 18 outcrop grab samples (from 2021 and 2022) confirm the Mia Li-1 occurrence with results averaging 2.65% Li2O.- 3 outcrop grab samples from 2022 confirm the spodumene observations at the Carte 1879 occurrence with results averaging 1.65% Li2O.- A trend of approximately 7km of unsampled pegmatite between the two mineralized occurrences is highlighted as a significant area to be followed up in 2023.President & CEO Alicia Milne states, "We are pleased with the encouraging sampling results near the Mia Li-1 and Mia Li-2 occurrences which will provide valuable information to add to our 2023 exploration program."2021 & 2022 Sampling DetailsA total of 17 pegmatite outcrop grab samples were collected in 2021 by Services Geologiques T-Rex Inc. of Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec ("SGT"), with the aim of verifying the Mia Li-1 and Mia Li-2 lithium occurrences (Figure 1, Table 1). The sample results confirmed the Mia Li-1 occurrence with five grab samples averaging 2.31% Li2O, but were not able to confirm the Mia Li-2 occurrence with two grab samples returning background lithium. One sample was collected 700 metres east of the Mia Li-1 area with 2.73% Li2O (herein named MIA 3). Additionally, nine samples were collected south of Lac Miakadow to test a coarse-grained granitic rock type that is outside of the main trend and returned background lithium.A follow-up sampling program was conducted in fall 2022, with nineteen pegmatite outcrop grab samples collected by SGT for CMH (Figure 1, Table 1). Thirteen samples were collected in the Mia Li-1 area and further confirmed the occurrence with an average grade of 2.79% Li2O. Additionally, three samples were collected in the Carte 1879 occurrence and for the first time verified spodumene at this location with the results averaging 1.65% Li2O. Three samples were collected from a pegmatite occurrence, outside of Figure 1 and returned only background levels of lithium.Collectively, the sampling from 18 outcrop grab samples at the Mia Li-1 occurrence (5 in 2021 and 13 in 2022) have an average grade of 2.65% Li2O.Table 1 - Results Table, 2021 and 2022 Sampleshttps://www.acnnewswire.com/topimg/Low_Queensland202212213.jpgAbout the Mia Lithium PropertyThe Property is comprised of 170 mineral claims, located 62 km East of Wemindji Community in the Eeyou Itschee Territory, James Bay, Quebec. The lithium mineral showings are located approximately 10 kilometres from the nearest highway.The Property geology is part of the Yasinski Lake area, identified by narrow greenstone belt slivers, belonging to volcanic rocks and related sediment the Yasinski Group and pierced by syn-tectonic tonalite and granodiorite suite. The Property is located in the western extremity of this geological area, covering various lithologies and favourable structures, known to host spodumene bearing pegmatites. The southern half of the Property covers a northeast limb of the Vieux Comptoir granite and a concordant intrusive body described as a spodumene granite on SIGEOM, the Quebec provincial government's geomining information system: https://sigeom.mines.gouv.qc.ca/signet/classes/I1108_afchCarteIntr.Historical work by Main Exploration Company Ltd. in 1959 (GM10200) reported several spodumene-bearing pegmatites on the Property and mapped an 8.3 kilometre-long trend of discontinuous pegmatite intrusions. SIGEOM lists nine metallic deposits directly on the Mia Lithium property including two for lithium, namely Mia Li-1 and Mia Li-2. Carte 1879 is listed as a spodumene mineral deposit as no assays were recorded for it.The westernmost mineral showings Mia-Li1 and Mia-Li2 were sampled in 1997 by Quebec government geologists and assays returned grades of 0.47% Li2O and 2.27% Li2O respectively. Numerous pegmatite intrusions have been recorded along the 8.3 kilometre long trend but were never been followed up for their lithium potential. The 1959 report also details that the pegmatite dykes are as much as 100 feet (30.5 metres) in width and are commonly zoned, with spodumene crystals described as being as much as 2 feet (0.61 metres) in length.About QueenslandQueensland Gold Hills is Canadian mineral exploration company currently advancing exploration of the 86km2 Mia Lithium Project in the James Bay area of Quebec, Canada, as well as two highly-prospective gold projects located in the historic goldfields of Queensland, Australia: the Big Hill Gold Project and the Titan Project which collectively cover 110 square kilometers in the Talgai Goldfields of the broader Warwick-Texas District and host 54 high-grade historical gold mines.FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, PLEASE CONTACT:Alicia Milne, Kevin BottomleyPresident & CEO Directoramilne@queenslandgoldhills.com, kbottomley@queenslandgoldhills.comTelephone: 1 (800) 482-7560, Telephone: 1 (800) 482-7560E-mail: info@queenslandgoldhills.comTwitter: @QLDGoldhillsQualified PersonNeil McCallum, B.Sc., P.Geo., of Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd., a registered permit holder with the Ordre des Geologues du Quebec and Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, supervised the preparation of the technical information in this news release.The 2021 and 2022 rock samples were analysed Activation Laboratories (Actlabs - Ste-Germaine Boule, Quebec).

SYDNEY, AU, Dec 2, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Austral Gold Limited (ASX: AGD) (TSXV: AGLD) ("Austral") is pleased to announce that it started its first drilling program on 30 November 2022 at the Jaguelito project located in the El Indio Belt, San Juan - Argentina, close to the Veladero mine and the Alturas project.Figure 1The drilling program is pursuant to the option agreement (the "Agreement") with Mexplort Perforaciones Mineras SA ("Mexplort") announced on 11 February 2022 whereby Austral may acquire a 50% interest in the Jaguelito project by performing the following work commitments within the next four years:- US$2 million in exploration expenditures, including drilling a minimum of 5,000 meters on Jaguelito (the "First Stage") by 10 August 2024, two years after the Agreement was approved by the Instituto Provincial de Exploraciones y Explotaciones Mineras de la Provincia de San Juan IPEEM.- US$2 million in exploration expenditures on Jaguelito within two years after completing the First Stage (the "Second Stage").Austral Gold's Chief Executive Officer, Stabro Kasaneva said: "As part of our strategic alliance with Mexplort, we are pleased to announce the start of our first phase of drilling at the Jaguelito project. Jaguelito is an advanced exploration project with a long history in the province of San Juan. Based on mineralisation of silver and gold intercepted in previous drilling campaigns, Jaguelito appears to have the same affected volcanic units that host a large zone of alteration having the same age as other large high sulphidation projects in the area."DRILLING PROGRAM OVERVIEW:Austral plans to complete the First Stage of approximately 5,000m of diamond drilling (DDH) in 15 to 20 holes at Jaguelito Norte and Jaguelito Sur.- At Jaguelito Norte, five drilling targets have been identified and in this stage at least three targets are expected to be tested with 3,500 meters of DDH drilling. The program intends to prioritise the Capote - Alcatraz sector under a new concept of gold ore control related to northwest direction and to drill the La Cuna maar-diatreme complex, which we recently identified as the main or major control of the hydrothermal system in the area. The third target corresponds to the satellite body of the Guanaco Breccia.- At Jaguelito Sur, preliminary work has identified five structures related to phreatomagmatic activity that may control the alteration and possibly mineralisation in that sector. Progress is being made in the delineation process and our objective is to define drilling targets to be tested with 1,500 meters of drilling.Casposo-Manantiales Project located in the province of San Juan, ArgentinaWe are finalising our second drilling campaign in 2022 as announced on 19 September 2022 and anticipate receiving and announcing assay results soon.About the Jaguelito ProjectThe Jaguelito project is an advanced exploration stage project located in located in one of the main districts of precious metals worldwide; the El Indio - Pascua Lama district in the Province of San Juan, Argentina. Its deposits, of the high sulfidation epithermal type of Miocene age, include mines in production, construction and exploration.The Jaguelito project covers an area of 11,000 approximately hectares, and over 150 holes (~30,000m) were drilled by previous owners (Minera Penoles, Minera IRL) between 1996 and 2009. It is located approximately 225 kilometers northwest of the city of San Juan in Valle del Cura, Iglesias Department, San Juan Province, Argentina. Its central coordinates are 29 46' 20" West Latitude, 69 38' 15 South Longitude and a variable altitude between 3,600 and 4,300 meters above sea level. Jaguelito is a high sulfidation epithermal deposit related to a Miocene volcanism hosted in basement of Permo-Triassic age. Its mineralisation is related to a hydrothermal system controlled by northeast-southwest oriented faults and hosted in porous-permeable volcaniclastic units. These rocks allowed the circulation of precursor acidic hydrothermal fluids that strongly altered the rocks through which they circulated, generating a secondary porosity or vuggy silica, in the alteration cores. The high porosity product of the alteration served as a conduit for the posthumous hydrothermal fluids responsible for the mineralization of gold and silver.About Austral Gold LimitedAustral Gold Limited is a gold and silver explorer and mining producer whose strategy is to expand the life of its cash generating assets in Chile, restart its Casposo-Manantiales mine complex in Argentina and build a portfolio of quality assets in Chile, the USA and Argentina organically through exploration and via acquisitions and strategic partnerships.

Luxury store, Leflair provides luxury goods online. Additional businesses include online delivery companies Handycart and Pushkart (bought during 1Q22), as well as Gorilla Networks, a telecom MVNO (early June 2022). During 3Q22 the company acquired Thoughtful Media, a digital influencer, Mangan.ph, restaurant delivery, and NusaTrip, an online travel agency. SoPa will launch a loyalty points offering. Maxim believes Thoughtful Media can market SoPa's other brands and the food delivery and luxury brand businesses can be expanded geographically. Maxim has a positive view on the SE Asian market due to increasing mobile and ecommerce penetration, younger populations, travel coming back, and the opportunity to consolidate smaller companies.- Significant year on year revenue growth in 3Q 2022. 3Q22 revenue of $2.1M increased significantly from $84K in the prior year quarter. Digital marketing accounted for over half of the quarter's revenue. Results were also held back as most of its businesses were very early stage. The company is in the process of restructuring several of its businesses to improve revenue and profitability.- Healthy balance sheet and cash levels. The company ended September 2022 with $23M in unrestricted cash and no debt. Maxim projects current cash levels as sufficient to fund organic growth over the next two years.- Challenging macro environment, yet positive on micro company business plan. Maxim factors in a more challenging macro environment impacting Society Pass' end markets and notes that Sea Ltd (SE - NR), SE Asia's largest internet company, has laid off 10% of staff in past 6 months and during its 3Q22 conference call projected lower than expected bookings for 2022. Maxim still expects SE Asia to be one of the fastest relative growth markets and anticipates SOPA to grow from spending on marketing, expansions, the launch of loyalty points in 4Q22, and contributions from all announced acquisitions. Maxim believes many of the businesses can be expanded geographically and benefit from greater capital.- Strong revenue generation in 2023. Maxim projects revenue to increase from $0.5M in 2021, to $7.0M in 2022, and $40.1M in 2023. The increase is due to the significant expected contribution from acquisitions and organic growth. Maxim projects 2022 adjusted EBITDA loss to widen to ($20.7M), from a loss of ($4.9M) in 2021. The wider loss is due to one time costs related to acquisitions and higher public company expenses. For 2023, Maxim projects EBITDA loss estimate to ($11.0M).- Compelling valuation. - SOPA trades at an EV/revenue multiple of 0.5x Maxim 2023 revenue estimate with over half of its market cap in cash. Maxim $5 price target is supported by our 10-year DCF analysis, which utilizes a 22% discount rate, 15x terminal multiple, and 3% terminal growth rate and equates to an EV/revenue multiple of 2.5x. The 2.5x multiple target is roughly inline with the peer group average of 2.4x. Our positive outlook is supported by the attractive SE Asian markets and opportunities to consolidate smaller companies.
