July 18, 2024
/CNW/ - Pan Global Resources Inc. ("Pan Global" or the "Company") (TSXV: PGZ) (OTCQX: PGZFF) (FSE: 2EU) is pleased to
announce results for three additional holes from the ongoing drill program at the Cañada Honda copper-gold (Cu-Au) discovery, in the Company's 100% owned
Escacena Project in the Iberian Pyrite Belt, southern
Spain
. The drillholes are part of an 11-hole step-out drill program at Cañada Honda that started in November,
with eight completed and three additional drillholes planned. Cañada Honda is located 3.5km north of Pan Global's La Romana copper-tin-silver deposit, where
delineation drilling continues.
"These latest drill results testing the northern edge of the gravity target at Cañada Honda have successfully confirmed the down-dip continuation of the copper and
gold mineralization and expanded the surface extent to more than
450m
x
450m
. All the drilling to-date is at the eastern end of a very large, mostly untested, 3km
east-west, coincident gravity and heliborne electro-magnetic ("HEM") target. The scale of the geophysics targets, combined with drillhole confirmation that
mineralization is associated with the anomaly, suggests Cañada Honda mineralization may be extensive. Next planned drillholes are aiming to test for higher
grades and expand the mineralization to the west," said
Tim Moody
, Pan Global's President & CEO.

Drillhole locations are shown in Figure 1 below. Drillhole assay results are summarized in Table 1 and drillhole collar details are presented in Table 2 below.
The three new holes were drilled along the northern margin of the gravity target, confirming continuation of the mineralization down-dip to the north, including
multiple gold intersections. Copper grades appear to be decreasing down-dip and away from the gravity anomaly. Downhole electromagnetic ("DHEM") surveys
completed in all three drillholes indicates potential stronger sulphide mineralization up-dip and coincident with the modelled gravity target, consistent with higher
copper-gold grades in the previous drilling. The next three planned drillholes will test for higher-grade extensions of the mineralization to the west following vectors
from the drill results and geophysics.
Additional drill results will be reported as soon as available from the ongoing drilling, including the La Romana deposit where 183 holes have been drilled to date.
In the coming weeks, the Company also anticipates commencing exploration at the large Bravo gravity target east of La Romana.

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).
