London, November 28, 2024. Orosur Mining Inc. ("Orosur" or the "Company")
(TSXV/AIM:OMI) is pleased to announce that it has completed the acquisition
("Acquisition") of Minera Monte Aguila S.A.S.("MMA") as a result of which the
Company now has 100% indirect ownership of the Company's flagship Anzá Gold
Project ("Anzá Project" or the "Project") in Colombia.
About the Anzá Project
Anzá is a gold exploration project, comprising granted exploration licences
and applications for exploration licences in the prolific Mid-Cauca belt of
Colombia. Since September 2018, the Anzá Project was the subject of an
Exploration Agreement with Venture Option with MMA. Since September 2020, MMA
has been a 50/50 joint venture between Newmont Corporation ("Newmont") and
Agnico Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico").
The Project is located 50km west of Medellin and is easily accessible by
all-weather roads and boasts excellent infrastructure including water, power,
communications as well as a large exploration camp. Since the Company first
acquired the Anzá Project in December 2014, almost 48,000m of drilling has
been undertaken, mostly on the central APTA prospect where a high-grade body
of gold mineralisation had been discovered. The most recent drilling
activities were at Pepas in the north of the Anzá Project area where three
holes returned excellent results, the best being 150.9m @ 3g/t Au from surface
(hole PEP001, announced on September 6, 2022).
Terms of the Acquisition
Under a share purchase agreement (the "SPA"), between Orosur, Agnico, Newmont
and certain of their respective subsidiaries, Orosur's wholly owned Canadian
subsidiary, Waymar Resources Ltd. has acquired all of the issued shares of MMA
resulting in Orosur holding 100% indirect ownership of the Project. The key
terms of the Acquisition were announced on September 10(th), 2024 and remain
unchanged.
Drilling
As announced on November 21(st), 2024, the Company has commenced drilling at
Pepas ,with plans for a small program of six or seven holes for a total of
roughly 800m. The first of these holes (PEP-012) has been completed with
samples being submitted to an assay laboratory in Medellin on a gradual
basis. First results are expected soon.
Orosur CEO Brad George commented:
"It is pleasing to finally be back in charge of our destiny. And with drilling
already well underway, we are looking forward to a period of enhanced
newsflow."
