Copper-tin mineralization increasing in the west and down dip
Exploration accelerating in Al Andaluz
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 30, 2021) - Pan Global Resources Inc.
(TSXV: PGZ) (OTC Pink: PGNRF)
("Pan Global" or the "Company") is pleased to announce new high-
grade copper and tin intercepts as drilling continues at the La Romana open pit copper target at the
Escacena Project in the Iberian Pyrite Belt, southern Spain. Exploration has also commenced on the
recently granted Al Andaluz Investigation (Exploration) Permit immediately to the east of La Romana
within the Escacena Project area. The La Romana target is located less than 6 km from the former
Aznalcollar open pit mine and approximately 15km west of the Las Cruces copper mine.
Tim Moody, Pan Global President and CEO states: "The latest results include the highest copper assay
ever reported at La Romana with 16.8% Cu or 18.2% Cu equivalent (CuEq) over 0.7m within a 10m
wide interval averaging 1.7% CuEq. The results add copper and tin mineralization near-surface in the
west and downdip on several sections which confirms the deposit remains wide open in several areas.
Results are awaited for several new holes, including in the far west where the copper and tin
mineralization appears to be increasing towards the La Romana mine workings."
Mr. Moody added: "In addition to the ongoing drilling at La Romana, ground geophysics has already
commenced in the adjacent Al Andaluz permit area with a second gravity survey crew being added to
accelerate the program."

Drill results
The latest drill results are from eight holes in the Phase 4 drill program at the La Romana discovery. Drill
holes LRD 76 and 78 targeted near-surface mineralization in the west. Holes LRD 78, 80 and 86 tested
down-dip extensions. Holes 77, 79 and 85 aimed to close a gap in the drilling in the east.
Drill hole locations are shown in Figure 1 and summary cross sections with holes LRD81 to LRD85 are
provided in Figure 2 above.
Drill hole collar information is provided in Table 1 below. Assay results are summarized in Table 2. The
drill holes were all inclined towards the south and all reported drill intervals are approximately true widths
except for hole LRD79 where true width is estimated at approx. 95% of the reported intervals.

Metal prices used: Copper US$6,200 per tonne, Silver USD22.50 per ounce, Gold US$1,500 per ounce, Cobalt US$32,800 per tonne and Tin
US$18,000 per tonne. The copper equivalent (CuEq ) values are for exploration purposes only and include no assumptions for metal recovery.
The results add near-surface copper and tin mineralization in the west and show the mineralization
extends over approx. 1.1km strike. The latest drill results continue to show that the mineralization
remains open in several directions.
The primary mineralization includes mainly stockwork, semi-massive sulphides and bands of massive
sulphide, with chalcopyrite as the primary copper mineral and cassiterite as the only observed tin
mineral. The copper mineralization is also associated with elevated levels of silver, cobalt and gold. A
metal zonation is also apparent, progressing from copper and tin in the west to copper and then zinc in
the east.
Drill hole
LRD76
extends the copper mineralization approx. 50m to the west where it remains wide
open, with approx. 30m grading 0.5% Cu, including a 7m near surface oxide/leached copper zone
immediately followed by a 20m interval of mostly supergene chalcocite with traces of native copper and
elevated tin. Results include:
7.4m at 0.3% Cu
(oxides)
from 13m
downhole, immediately followed by
20.6m at 0.9% CuEq

Drill hole
LRD79
confirmed the mineralization continues down-dip from hole LRD77, including several
narrow close-spaced high-grade intercepts. Results include:
6.6m at 0.6% CuEq
(0.5% Cu, 4.4g/t Ag, 0.07g/t Au) from 61.7m, including

Drill hole
LRD85
tested approximately 50m up-dip from hole LRD74 which intersected 6.5m at 2.5%
CuEq. Together with holes LRD23 and LRD74, the results for LRD85 confirm a continuous zone of high-
grade mineralization with grade increasing downdip and include a
0.7m thick ultra-high grade
massive chalcopyrite intercept with 16.8% Cu (18.2% CuEq), which is the highest copper
assay reported to-date at La Romana.
The high-grade zone is open down-dip and an untested gap of
approximately 150m exists along strike to the next hole to the east of LRD85. The hole also intersected a

Assay results are pending for an additional 21 completed drill holes including several new drill holes in
the western limits of the project area with strong copper mineralization evident in drill core. Drilling is
ongoing with two drill rigs.
QA/QC
Core size was HQ (63mm) and all samples were ½ core. Nominal sample size was 1m core length and
ranged from 0.4 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). Tin was
analysed in selected intervals using Lithium borate fusion and ICP MS finish (method ME-MS81). 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).
