RNS Number : 4379G Galantas Gold Corporation 19 July 2023
GALANTAS GOLD DRILLS 19.8 GRAMS/TONNE GOLD OVER 1.7 METRES AT THE OMAGH
PROJECT
July 19, 2023, TORONTO, CANADA - Galantas Gold Corporation (TSX-V & AIM:
GAL; OTCQX: GALKF) ("Galantas" or the "Company") is pleased to announce
results for a hole drilled from an underground platform within the second
level of the Kearney Vein development at the Omagh Project in Northern
Ireland.
Hole FR-DD-23-UG-193 intersected 19.8 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) and 11.3
g/t silver (Ag) over 1.7 metres targeting the Kearney B-lens (see Table 1 and
Figure 1). This is the most northerly intersection in the latest underground
drill program, and provides important information on the course and continuity
of mineralization outside the main Kearney Vein.
A new surface drilling program is underway at Omagh to test a predicted
dilation zone at the Joshua Vein which has potential to host higher widths of
mineralization (see Galantas' news release dated June 22, 2023).
Mario Stifano, CEO of Galantas, commented: "Our drill program continues to
yield positive results, improving our understanding of the high-grade gold
mineralization below the Omagh mine. We're pleased with the outcome of this
final underground hole at the main Kearney Vein as we transition our drill
program from underground to surface to target the other main Joshua Vein and
potentially add to the number of dilation zones previously delineated from
historical drilling. We look forward to reporting on these drill results as
they become available."

Notes:
1. Drill holes were HQ size and drilled using a triple tube method to
maximize 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. All assays are reported without application of a top cut.
