PAN GLOBAL INTERCEPTS FURTHER HIGHER-GRADE GOLD AND COPPER MINERALIZATION AT CÁRMENES PROJECT, SPAIN
- Discovery of significant gold mineralization in an area with no prior gold exploration history
- Wide mineralization zones indicate bulk-tonnage potential: 56m at 0.37 g/t Au and 110m at 0.23 g/t Au
- High-grade intercepts including 2.19 g/t gold over 4m and mixed mineralization with copper, nickel, and cobalt
- Multiple untested geophysical targets identified, suggesting potential for additional discoveries
- Mineralization remains open in multiple directions
- Insufficient drilling to determine true width of mineralization
- Early-stage exploration project with no resource definition yet
- Relatively low-grade bulk tonnage results in some intervals
TSXV: PGZ | OTCQB: PGZFF | FRA: 2EU
- Higher-grade intervals include 2.19 g/t gold over 4 meters; 1.05 g/t Au over 10m; and 0.59 g/t Au,
1.05% Cu,0.22% Ni,0.22% Co over 4m - Wide breccia gold intercepts, including 0.37 g/t Au over 56 meters and 0.23 g/t Au over 110 meters, highlights shallow bulk-tonnage potential
- Drilling now targeting the principal untested gold zone at Providencia with three planned step-out holes
- Multiple untested geophysics targets indicates strong potential for additional discoveries at Cármenes
The new assay results are for drillholes PVD03 and PVD04, which targeted potential extensions of the breccia-hosted mineralization associated with the historical Providencia copper-cobalt-nickel underground mine workings. PVD03 was drilled immediately east of the historical mine workings, and PVD04 drilled through Cu-Ni-Co mineralized breccia. The Providencia target area had no previous drilling and no prior recognition of potential for significant gold mineralization.
Drill Highlights:
- Drillhole PVD03
- Wide gold interval from near surface extending east of the mine workings
- 56m at 0.37 g/t Au from 29m (downhole), including
- 4m at 1.22 g/t Au from 64m
- 10m at 1.05 g/t Au from 75m
- 4m at 2.19 g/t Au from 81m
- Drillhole PVD04
- High-grade copper, nickel, cobalt and selenium intercepts within a wider breccia zone with elevated gold
- 110m at 0.23 g/t Au from 8m, including
- 4m at 0.59 g/t Au,
1.05% Cu,0.22% Co,0.22% Ni - 2m at 0.21 g/t Au,
0.80% Cu,0.23% Co,0.60% Ni from 113m - 14m at 0.51 g/t Au from 11m
- Several 1m intervals with grades from 1.08 g/t to 2.05 g/t Au
- 4m at 0.59 g/t Au,
"The wide zones of breccia mineralization in Pan Global's maiden drill program at Cármenes highlight the potential for significant hydrothermal breccia-hosted gold, copper, nickel, and cobalt mineralization. The results expand the breccia-hosted mineralization south, east and north of the historical mine workings at Providencia and the target area remains wide open. The next three step-out holes will be the first tests of a wide zone with highly anomalous gold mineralization east of the Providencia workings, including channel sampling that returned 3.11 g/t gold over 37 meters," said Tim Moody, Pan Global President and CEO.
"We are also very excited by the results of the recently completed helicopter geophysics survey over Cármenes, which provides a rich dataset indicating multiple new targets with similar features to Providencia, indicating a high potential for discovery of additional gold, copper, nickel, and cobalt in the Project area."
Key points:
- The drill results reported to date are for three of the planned six-hole maiden drill campaign at Cármenes, which is the first-ever drilling at the Providencia target.
- First completed drillhole (PVD02) intersected a high-grade interval of 6.27 g/t gold over 4m within a broader interval averaging 1.08 g/t gold over 46m south of the historical mine workings. [See media release from May 19, 2025]
- The results for drillholes PVD03 and PVD04 expand the breccia-hosted gold zone to the east and north of the mine workings, and mineralization remains wide open.
- The upcoming three drillholes will step out up to 120m east of the Providencia mine workings, testing beneath recently reported high-grade trench and channel sample results (3.11 g/t Au over 37m and 1.74 g/t Au over 20m). [See media release from February 11, 2025]
- Interpretation of a recently completed helicopter electromagnetic, magnetic and radiometric survey over Cármenes is progressing quickly and indicates multiple additional targets with similar characteristics to Providencia.
Bravo Target drilling update
Pan Global is also pleased to report that following a pause for crop harvesting, drilling will resume at the large high-priority Bravo target at the flagship Escacena Project in southern

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
