PAN GLOBAL INTERCEPTS NEAR-SURFACE HIGH-GRADE GOLD AT THE CÁRMENES PROJECT, SPAIN
Rhea-AI Summary
Pan Global (OTCQB: PGZFF) reports Phase 2 drill results at the Providencia target, Cármenes Project, Spain, with near-surface high-grade gold intercepts including 3.5 g/t Au over 8 m and 1.18 g/t Au over 10 m in hole PVD10. Free native gold was identified in hematite breccia, and polymetallic Au–Cu–Ni–Co mineralization was intersected beyond historical workings. Hydrothermal breccia and soil geochemistry define a 500m-by-200m target area. Phase 3 drilling is planned for Q1 2026. All intervals are down-hole; true widths undetermined.

TSXV: PGZ | OTCQB: PGZFF | FRA: 2EU
- High-grade intercepts include 3.5 g/t over 8 meters and 1.2 g/t Au over 10 meters in drillhole PVD10
- Free native gold identified in hematite breccia: potential for favourable metallurgy
- Polymetallic mineralization (Au–Cu–Ni–Co) confirmed beyond the limits of historical mining
- More than two dozen untested gold and polymetallic targets identified across the Cármenes Project
- Phase 3 drill program to commence in first quarter of 2026
"Drilling continues to confirm near surface high-grade gold mineralization strongly associated with hematite breccia zones at the Providencia target. The identification of free native gold within the breccia supports the potential for favourable metallurgy," said Tim Moody, President and CEO of Pan Global.
"Importantly, drilling has demonstrated that copper–nickel–cobalt-gold mineralization extends beyond the historical mine workings and that multiple gold zones occur at shallow depths. The mineralization remains open along strike and at depth, providing compelling targets for the next phase of drilling to define the extent of the system and evaluate the more than two dozen other drill targets in the Cármenes Project area."
Hydrothermal breccia and alteration mapping over a 500m-by-200m area, alongside highly anomalous copper and gold soil geochemistry, indicates the potential for a much larger gold-bearing and polymetallic mineral system at the Providencia target. Geophysical data also indicates that mineralization remains open at depth beneath historical mine workings.
The Providencia higher-grade gold mineralization is primarily hosted within red hematitic hydrothermal breccia zones developed in carbonate rocks. Lower gold grades are associated with copper-nickel-cobalt mineralization. Preliminary petrographic analysis confirms the presence of free native gold within the breccia matrix. This is a strong indicator of potential for favourable metallurgical properties, which will be the subject of further testing.
The Phase 3 drill program is planned to commence in the first quarter of 2026.
All reported drill intervals are down-hole lengths; insufficient drilling has been completed to determine true widths.
Drill Highlights:
Providencia Target
- Assays received for completed drillholes PVD07 to PVD10
Drillhole PVD10
- Intersected multiple gold intervals from shallow depths, including:
- 1.2 g/t Au over 10 m from 16 m (60m east of historical mine), and
- 3.5 g/t Au over 8 m from 77 m, including 5.8 g/t Au over 4 m
- Gold mineralization is associated with steeply dipping red hematitic carbonate breccia zones
- Confirms additional gold mineralization adjacent to historical mine workings and within a separate gold-bearing structural zone approximately 60 meters east
Drillhole PVD07
- Intersected a mineralized interval of approximately 5 meters from 115 meters down-hole, indicated by elevated gold and silver assays immediately above and below a 3.2-meter interval of no core recovery, including
- 1.37 g/t Au over 1 m from 115 m, and
- 0.23 g/t Au, >100 g/t Ag (above detection limit) over 0.8 m from 119.2m
Drillhole PVD09
- Hole intersected over 9-meters of sulfide-rich breccia, ending in
0.94% Cu,0.06% Ni,0.04% Co, 0.38 g/t Au over 1.4 m before encountering an historical mine cavity where not expected

About the Cármenes Project
The Cármenes Project is located on the Rio Narcea Gold Belt approx. 55km north of León and comprises five Investigation Permits over 5,653 hectares. The Project area is highly prospective for multiple bodies or "clusters" of carbonate-hosted hydrothermal breccia style copper, nickel, cobalt, and gold mineralization. The area includes the former Profunda and Providencia mines that last operated in the 1930s, producing concentrates of copper and cobalt with nickel. Numerous other smaller historical mine workings in the area highlight the potential for additional breccia mineralization. These types of ore deposits can have significant vertical dimensions exceeding 1km. The Company's maiden drill program in 2025 at the Providencia target yielded a new gold discovery.

QA/QC
Core size was HQ (63mm) and all samples were ½ core. Nominal sample size was 1m core length and ranged from 0.5 to 2m. Sample intervals were defined using geological contacts with the start and end of each sample physically marked on the core. 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
