GALANTAS GOLD INTERSECTS HIGH-GRADE GOLD AT THE OMAGH
PROJECT IN NORTHERN IRELAND
October 12, 2021, TORONTO, CANADA – Galantas Gold Corporation (TSX-V & AIM: GAL;
OTCQX: GALKF ) (“Galantas” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results for its
ongoing 4,000-meter drill program at the Omagh Project in Northern Ireland.
Drilling highlights:
• The first hole to target the Kearney vein from an underground drill platform returned
two high-grade intersections:
• 17.7 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au), 50.9 g/t silver (Ag) and 4.6% lead (Pb) over
2.5 metres; including 30.5 g/t Au, 60.8 g/t Ag and 4.4% Pb over 0.8 metres (see
Table 1 for details). This shallower intersect , occurring at approximately 136.5
metres vertical depth from surface, provides continuity to a parallel-running zone
of mineralization 13 metres west of the main Kearney vein and this structure will
be tested with further underground drilling.
• 10.8 g/t Au, 23.6 g/t Ag and 3.3% Pb over 1.5 metres. This intersection at 176.3
metres vertical depth penetrates a gap in the current resource model.
• Surface drilling targeting the Joshua vein is also in progress and results for the first of
these holes are as follows: 7.7 g/t Au, 24.3 g/t Ag and 0.6% Pb over a 2.7-metre
downhole intersection.
Mario Stifano, CEO of Galantas, commented: “We are very encouraged by the positive start
to the surface and underground exploration program consisting of 4,000 metres of diamond
drilling on the Kearney and Joshua veins – two of many high -priority targets on the
Company’s land package. Underground drilling on the Kearney vein is testing deeper
extensions of mineralized zones, and targeting higher widths of mineralization within the vein.
Drilling will also target continuity and grade of additional mineralized zones running parallel
to the main orebody.”
Drill results are expected to support the mine plan as the Company moves into a new phase
of underground mining and accelerated development. The Company has currently completed
2,000 metres of underground development at the Kearney vein and development is currently
within 240 metres of accessing the Joshua vein.

Notes:
1. Drill holes were HQ size and drilled using a triple tube method to maximise core recovery. The samples were
analyzed (gold by fire assay and other metals by ICP -ORE) at ALS Laboratory Ltd (ISO 17025) of Galway,
Ireland.
2. Intersect vertical depth intervals are from ground surface to the top of the mineralized zone.
3. Data has been rounded to 1 decimal place.
4. The Company has only received assay results for the two holes reported here. Further announcements will
be made when more results are received.
