Executive Summary

  • Sranan Gold Corp. announced additional high-grade trenching results from its Tapanahony project in Suriname, specifically at the Randy trend.
  • A new trench revealed an interval of 5 meters averaging 8.9 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, serving as a western extension of previously sampled zones located 150 meters south of Randy's Pit.
  • The results support the continuity of mineralization within northeast-striking sheared felsic intrusive lithologies, with plans to continue trenching south of Randy's Pit to extend the mineralized corridor for future drilling.

Key Details

  • New Trench Results: An interval of 5 meters (m) averaged 8.9 grams per tonne (g/t) gold.
  • Location Context: The new trench is located west of the previously announced trench 25RACH-001 (referenced in a news release dated Aug. 7, 2025).
  • Geological Setting: Mineralization is hosted within northeast-striking sheared felsic intrusive lithologies within a siltstone-basalt sequence.
  • Historical Comparison: The northeast-oriented mineralized interval is parallel to similar shears in trench 25RACH-002, where a grab sample of 57 g/t gold was previously taken.
  • Strategic Objective: Trenching is being used to extend mineralization at Randy's Pit and the area of historical drilling by Iamgold. Trenches are being excavated south of Randy's Pit to extend the mineralized corridor for future drilling.
  • QA/QC Protocols: Samples were prepared and assayed by Filab in Paramaribo, Suriname. All samples exceeding 2 g/t were reassayed using 50-gram reassay and gravimetric assay. Standard QA/QC procedures showed satisfactory reproducibility, with reject samples to be sent to an independent lab for confirmation.
  • Technical Disclaimer: The company notes that channel samples may not represent the true thickness of mineralization.

Notable Quotes

  • "Trenching is the ideal tool to continue to extend the near-surface expression of gold mineralized on the Randy trend. Trenches are selected based on topography and geology to best sample saprolite (weathered bedrock). For this trench, we are resampling the mineralized interval and adjoining channel samples to verify results and understand assay variability." — Dr. Dennis LaPoint, Executive Vice-President of Exploration and Corporate Development
