markets, and his wide network of industry contacts and investors, will be invaluable to the Company as
we continue to expand and advance the Cajueiro gold district in Brazil."
Tavi Costa, newly appointed Director, added; "I'm pleased to be joining the board of Altamira Gold at
a compelling stage for the business. The 43-101 Resource at Cajueiro

anchors the current value,
with significant upside across the broader Alta Floresta Gold Belt land package. Positioned in Brazil,
the Company stands to benefit from the structural economic shift underway across Latin America. My
goal is to be a value-add investor and director - helping the business across all fronts, from key capital
decisions to unlocking the full potential of its existing resource base and its significant exploration
upside."
The Company also announces that Ioannis Tsitos has stepped down from the Board of Directors to
pursue other business interests. The Board thanks Ioannis for his contributions and for his dedicated
service over the past nine years, and wishes him continued success in his future endeavours.
