Pelangio Exploration Reports Interim Drill Results from the Manfo Project, Ghana; Drilling to Transition to Dankran with Further Drilling Planned at Manfo

Pelangio Exploration Inc. - Advancing Ghana Gold Projects

Executive Summary
  • Pelangio Exploration reports interim assay results from its ongoing 2,900-metre diamond drilling program at the Manfo Project's Pokukrom East and West deposits.
  • The program is approximately 72% complete, with completion expected in July.
  • Pokukrom West results show weak mineralization (e.g., 12m @ 0.94 g/t Au), prompting a strategic redirect to higher-priority targets.
  • Pokukrom East results returned lower than expected grades (e.g., 15.87m @ 0.25 g/t Au, 9m @ 0.76 g/t Au), with sample pulps/rejects submitted for independent check assaying.
  • The company plans to transition drilling to the Dankran property upon completion, targeting a 700-800m program to follow up on maiden RC results (2m @ 6.07 g/t Au, 3m @ 14.17 g/t Au).
  • Controlled Source Electromagnetic (CSEM) surveys will be conducted at Obuasi and Manfo to target sulphide mineralization.
  • Further Manfo RC drilling and deep down-plunge holes are postponed to the November-December dry season.
Material Impact
  • The interim drill results are below management's initial expectations, with lower-than-anticipated grades and the initiation of independent check assaying.
  • The strategic pivot to Dankran and the postponement of Manfo RC drilling indicate a recalibration of near-term exploration priorities rather than a major discovery or setback.
  • Given the early stage of the drilling program (72% complete) and the routine nature of interim updates in exploration, the market impact is expected to be muted.
  • The news aligns with the previously announced $7.6M staged exploration program but introduces minor execution delays and grade disappointment, warranting a Routine - Negative classification.
