- Highest near-surface grade-thickness copper intersection in the current drill program on the growing west extension at La Romana
- Results include 3.3% copper over 5 meters and 5.0% copper over 2 meters
- Confirms continuity and higher-grade mineralization remain wide open
- La Romana is a standalone open-pit target with significant potential to expand the copper-tin- silver mineralization in several directions
VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pan Global Resources Inc. ("Pan Global" or the "Company") (TSXV: PGZ) (OTCQX: PGZFF) (FRA: 2EU) is pleased to announce results for three additional holes from the ongoing drill program at the La Romana copper-tin-silver (Cu-Sn-Ag) discovery, in the Company's 100% owned Escacena Project in the Iberian Pyrite Belt, southern Spain. Results and accompanying figures shown below.
Highlights:
- Drillhole LRD181 intersected:
- 18.0m at 1.24% CuEq1 (1.14% Cu, 0.03% Sn, 2.6 g/t Ag) from 69m, including
- 5.0m at 3.51% CuEq1 (3.33% Cu, 0.06% Sn, 6.8 g/t Ag)
- 18.0m at 1.24% CuEq1 (1.14% Cu, 0.03% Sn, 2.6 g/t Ag) from 69m, including
- Drillhole LRD183 intersected:
- 9.0m at 1.31% CuEq1 (1.27% Cu, 0.01% Sn, 2.7 g/t Ag) from 103m, including
- 2.0m at 5.12% CuEq1 (5.0% Cu, 0.02% Sn, 10.7 g/t Ag)
- 9.0m at 1.31% CuEq1 (1.27% Cu, 0.01% Sn, 2.7 g/t Ag) from 103m, including
- Drillhole LRD182 intersected:
- 7.25m at 0.92% CuEq1 (0.81% Cu, 0.03% Sn, 2.5g/t Ag) from 132.75m, including
- 4.0m at 1.42% CuEq1 (1.29% Cu, 0.04% Sn, 3.8g/t Ag)

"These drill results from La Romana are very encouraging, confirming the near-surface Cu-Sn-Ag mineralization continues and is open to the west. Drillhole LRD181, with an intercept of 18m of 1.24% CuEq1, represents one of the best results so-far from the current 25-hole drill program targeting the western extension of the deposit. The new holes are 40-to-50 meters from the next nearest holes and highlight potential to extend the higher-grade copper mineralization with further step-outs. The La Romana mineralization now spans 1.5km east-west, and shows significant upside potential for further expansion," said Tim Moody, Pan Global's President & CEO.
The latest results are part of a 25-hole resource delineation program at the western extension of the La Romana deposit and the three drillholes extend the higher-grade copper mineralization in the west of La Romana. Three additional holes remain to be drilled as part of the planned delineation drill program in the west of La Romana, with expansion of the drill program anticipated.
Investor webcast:
The Company will host an investor webcast with CEO Tim Moody on Wednesday, September 18, 2024 at 1 p.m. Eastern Time / 10 a.m. Pacific Time to discuss progress at the Escacena Project and provide an update on the ongoing work. A Q&A session will follow a short presentation. Please register in advance:

1 Copper Equivalent = CuEq. CuEq is calculated using Cu, Sn, and Ag grades. Metallurgical recoveries include 86% for Cu, 68% for Sn and 56% for Ag, based on preliminary studies performed by Wardell Armstrong International and MinePro. The CuEq calculation uses US$ 8,693/tonne Cu, US$ 29,069/tonne Sn and US$ 23.72/oz Ag, corresponding to the three-year monthly price averages to July 2023. The effective formula is [CuEq %] = [Cu %] + 2.6440 * [Sn %] + 0.0057 * [Ag ppm] |

QA/QC Procedures
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 Seville, Spain and assayed at the ALS laboratory in Ireland. All samples were crushed and split (method CRU-31, SPL22Y), and pulverized using (method PUL-31). Gold analysis was by 50gm fire assay with ICP finish (method Au-ICP22) and multi element analysis was undertaken using a 4-acid digest with ICP AES finish (method ME-ICP61). Over grade base metal results were assayed using a 4-acid digest ICP AES (method OG-62).
