GALANTAS GOLD ANNOUNCES ENGAGEMENT OF QME FOR UNDERGROUND DEVELOPMENT TOWARDS
JOSHUA VEIN AT OMAGH PROJECT
September 15, 2022, TORONTO, CANADA - Galantas Gold Corporation (TSX-V &
AIM: GAL; OTCQX: GALKF) ("Galantas" or the "Company") is pleased to announce
that its subsidiary Flintridge Resources Limited has appointed QME Limited of
Navan, Ireland, as a mining contractor to develop the access and exploration
drives to the Joshua Vein at its Omagh Gold Project in Northern Ireland.
QME's project scope comprises a total of 600 metres of underground development
and is expected to commence in January 2023. Development to an exploration
drive is expected to be completed by May 2023, followed by access drives to
two mining levels at the Joshua Vein in Q3 2023.
Mario Stifano, CEO of Galantas, commented: "This project is very exciting on
two major fronts - to allow early detailed exploration drilling at depth on
the Joshua Vein and simultaneously increase production capability from the
Joshua Vein to supplement production from the Kearney Vein. This will greatly
assist in fully defining resources at the Joshua Vein while bringing the Omagh
Mine to a stable level of production. With intercepts such as 17.4 grams per
tonne gold and 74.6 grams per tonne silver over a 13.1-metre intersect, we
look forward to continued drilling success along the new exploration drive at
Joshua."

underground and open pit use. QME is currently engaged in mining contracts in
