VANCOUVER, BC
,
Jan. 30, 2024
/CNW/ - Pan Global Resources Inc. ("Pan Global" or the "Company") (TSXV: PGZ) (OTCQX: PGZFF) (FSE: 2EU) is pleased
to announce results for two further drillholes from an 11-hole step out drill program at the Cañada Honda copper-gold (Cu-Au) discovery, on the Company's 100%
owned Escacena Project in the Iberian Pyrite Belt, southern
Spain
. Drilling has resumed, with additional holes planned targeting extensions of Cañada Honda
copper and gold mineralization.
"These excellent results provide further indication of size potential and continuity of the copper-gold mineralization at the Cañada Honda target. We are also
excited about the results showing significant gold in the structural hanging wall at Cañada Honda," said
Tim Moody
, President and CEO of Pan Global.
"The next steps at Cañada Honda include further drilling to test for shallow extensions in the east, where copper-gold soil geochemistry indicates the
mineralization comes to surface, and further test a large gravity target that extends for two kilometers to the west."

Two styles of mineralization are recognized at Cañada Honda:
Copper-gold volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) style mineralization (pyrite, chalcopyrite), including stockwork, semi-massive and massive-sulphides
hosted within shales, similar to the host rocks at the former Aznalcóllar and Los Frailes mines, 4km to the east; and
Gold mineralization associated with quartz-sulphide (pyrite, and lesser chalcopyrite, sphalerite and arsenopyrite) veins and stockwork within folded and
fractured shale and quartzites, in the structural hanging wall above the copper-gold mineralization

About the Escacena Project
The Escacena Project comprises a large, contiguous, 5,760-hectare land package controlled 100% by Pan Global in the east of the Iberian Pyrite Belt. Escacena
is located near the operating mine at Riotinto and is immediately adjacent to the former Aznalcóllar and Los Frailes mines where Minera Los Frailes/Grupo Mexico
is in the final permitting stage with construction anticipated to start in 2024. The Escacena Project hosts Pan Global's La Romana copper-tin-silver and Cañada
Honda copper-gold discoveries and a number of other prospective targets, including, Bravo, Barbacena, El Pozo,
Romana Norte
, San Pablo, Zarcita, Hornitos, La
Jarosa, and
Romana Deep
.

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). Over grade tin was determined using peroxide fusion with ICP finish (method Sn-ICP81x).
