SAN LORENZO ANNOUNCES DRILL PREPARATIONS AT CERRO BLANCO TARGET
CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / November 26, 2024 / San Lorenzo Gold Corp. (" San Lorenzo " or the
"Company") (TSXV: SLG) is pleased to announce that targeting, drill road access and pad construction
haven been competed for the maiden drill program on its Cerro Blanco target at Salvadora.
About Cerro Blanco
Cerro Blanco is one of 5 target areas located within San Lorenzo’s Salvadora property. It is highlighted by
a strong leached cap and alteration zone exposed in the approximately 250 meters high valley wall formed
by river erosion on the northern edge of the target zone. This alteration zone is exposed over a strike
length exceeding 2.5 kilometers south of the valley wall. In Chile, the type of surface alteration seen at
Cerro Blanco is a common feature within and above similar mineralized intrusions as evidenced locally by
the porphyry copper/gold deposits associated with the El Salvador mine 15 km to the NE. A view of the
feature can be seen in Figure 1 below.

The Cerro Blanco feature has long been a priority target - not yet drilled because of a lack of access – with
access having recently been completed.
San Lorenzo’s recent efforts included completion of additional surface rock and soil sampling on Cerro
Blanco. A strong 2.5 km sq soil copper anomaly was identified - which is open to the NW, NE and SW.
Numerous soil samples graded from 0.05 – 0.1% copper and numerous rock samples graded 0.1 – 1.55%

copper and 0.02 – 0.33 g/t gold (Figure 2). An IP survey detected a moderate to strong chargeability
anomaly underlying the core of the surface soil and rock copper/gold anomaly which is also open on strike
and at depth. During construction, altered mineralized rock was exposed in the road cuts confirming the
local nature of the surface alteration. Figure 2 below provides locations of the results discussed above
and indicates proposed drilling locations.

Permits for the maiden drill program are expected imminently. The recent increase in the credit facility
from a director and officer (see November 19, 2024 news release) will finance the maiden drill program
at Cerro Blanco.
San Lorenzo VP Exploration, Terry Walker commented that “Cerro Blanco is a very large, classic porphyry
target. The combination of the large alteration zone with anomalous copper/gold geochemistry and IP
3
chargeability make it a compelling target and we’re very pleased to have competed access work so we
can finally drill test it.”
About San Lorenzo
San Lorenzo is focused on advancing its Salvadora property located in Chile’s mega porphyry Cu-Au-Mo
belt - just south of one of Chile’s major porphyry deposits and producing mines, El Salvador.
Results obtained from drilling programs conducted on 4 different targets to date have convinced
management that several significant gold and copper enriched epithermal and porphyry style copper, gold
molybdenum systems underly the Salvadora property.
San Lorenzo looks forward to providing timely updates on its activities at Salvador in the coming weeks.
