ROUYN-NORANDA, Quebec, Jan. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GLOBEX MINING ENTERPRISES INC. (GMX - Toronto Stock Exchange, G1MN - Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin, Munich, Tradegate, Lang & Schwarz, LS Exchange, TTMzero, Düsseldorf and Quotrix Düsseldorf Stock Exchanges and GLBXF - OTCQX International in the US) is pleased to report that Emperor Metals Inc. have shared additional results from its 2024 drill program which included 8,166 metres of drilling across 19 new drill holes and approximately 8,000 metres of historical core assays. To date, 70% of the new drilling assays have been reported, but only 35% of the total assays from the combined 2024 drilling and historical core resampling. All assaying should be completed by mid-February. The Duquesne West property is in Duparquet Township, Quebec, 32 km northwest of the town of Rouyn-Noranda and, covers a portion of the gold localizing Porcupine-Destor Break.
Highlights reported include:
| Hole DQ-24-12 | 4.1 g/t Au over 38.3 m including 7.2 g/t Au over 21.7 m |
| and | 0.6 g/t Au over 68.3 m including 1.2 g/t Au over 23.5 m |
| Hole DQ24-11 | 0.5 g/t Au over 56.1 m including 1.8 g/t Au over 24.8 m |
Note: Lengths reported are drill core lengths
John Florek, President of Emperor commented: "The intersection of broad zones of multi-gram gold (Au) mineralization with visible gold within the conceptual open-pit model is highly encouraging for future open-pit mining economics. These results highlight significant opportunities in poorly drilled areas within the defined conceptual open-pit model. This reinforces the potential to optimize and expand the currently understood boundaries of potentially viable mining for this deposit. This additional high-grade mineralization, once fully defined, will be vital to increasing our open-pit head grade for potential future mining and our upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) expected in Q1 of 2025."

Of note, on December 24, 2024, Emperor prepaid the $500,000 cash portion of the 2025 option payment. The share portion is expected later this month.
