(CSE: ELEM) (OTC: ELMGF) (FSE: 7YS) (" Element79 Gold ", the " Company ") is pleased to provide a comprehensive update on the recent advancements in geologic field work and community rela�ons ini�a�ves in the Apacheta and Sando Alcalde areas of its flagship Lucero property.
Geological Field Work Progress:
sampling at the Apacheta and Sando Alcalde areas. Despite adverse weather condi�ons affec�ng surface work, underground work at Sando Alcalde commenced on Saturday, September 21st, following authoriza�on from The Community of Chachas, RRCC. The achievements include:
-
Mine Workings Mapping: 1,400 linear metres covered, represen�ng 40% more than the ini�al target schedule.
-
Surface Geological Mapping (1:2,500 scale): A total of 360 hectares were mapped, contribu�ng to a cumula�ve total of more than 400 hectares .
-
Field Sta�ons: 98 established, with a cumula�ve total of 279.
-
Samples Collected: A total of 111 samples have been collected and sent to Cer�min Laboratory (33 surface, 64 underground, and 14 QA/QC).
mapping now 75% complete.
Geological Observa�ons:
Mineraliza�on occurs within vein-faults at both the botom and top. On the surface, it manifests as a siliceous ledge with Fe-Mn oxides and an argillic halo. Three dis�nct surface events have been iden�fied: massive gray silica, whi�sh silica, and drusy quartz filling cavi�es with OxFe.
There are two main structure types:
-
Base Metal Structure: Comprising galena-sphalerite-pyrite (1st event), rhodochrosite-rhodonitesilica (breccia�ng sulfides, 2nd event), galena-pyrite-chalcopyrite band to the vein footwall (3rd event), and drusy quartz with OxFe filling cavi�es (4th event).
-
Characterized by a central suture of tens of cen�metres of gray silicapyrite-chalcopyrite-galena filled with drusy quartz and clay-OxFe halos.
Near these structures altera�on of gray to whi�sh silica with clays (possibly dickite?) is prevalent, showing moderate to strong argillic altera�on. Halos generally do not exceed 2 metres in width. As one moves away from the structures, the predominant altera�on shi�s to a weak to moderate chloriteepidote-calcite (propyli�c halo).
The structural orienta�on follows three main controls: AZ 330° for main veins, EW for faults and secondary veins, and AZ 60° for some faults and the emplacement of the daci�c intrusive.
sampling by sectors.
-
Support in the Geology Area: Permanent monitoring during the day to avoid disrup�on of data collec�on ac�vi�es.
-
Engagement with Ar�sanal Miners: Visits to working areas to build posi�ve rela�ons and awareness with ar�sanal miners in the upper parts of Lomas Doradas.
-
Dialogue with Community Leaders: Personal dialogue with leaders and the president of Lomas Doras and coordinate the entry of geologists for mapping ac�vi�es.
-
Coordina�on for Entry to Galleries: Coordina�on with the president of the Chachas community and the president of Lomas Doradas for entry to ac�ve mining galleries, ensuring safety through collabora�on with project managers and security.
-
Community Ini�a�ves: pipe dona�on to be used by the Chachas community water conveyance project.
Element79 Gold remains commited to transparency, community engagement, and the responsible development of its Lucero Property. The Company looks forward to con�nued progress and collabora�on with the local community.
