Centurion Commences Field Work at Limestone Gold Project, Suriname
Centurion advances its Suriname Gold Project into the field phase while navigating a liquidity crunch.
Centurion Minerals Ltd. has mobilized a geological field crew to its 3,548-hectare Limestone Gold Project in Suriname. The team is conducting detailed geological mapping and sampling in the Toeboeka Hills region, with a focus on drainages and active small-scale mining areas. The methodology involves systematic panning for fine "flour" gold, followed by shallow auger sampling, trenching, and target definition for future drilling. Historical airborne geophysical data is being integrated to delineate gold trends.
Dr. Dennis LaPoint, President, confirmed the mobilization marks an important step in advancing the project, leveraging proven methods from weathered terrains. The company continues to evaluate additional gold project acquisitions in the Rosebel-Saramacca district.
Centurion Minerals Ltd. (CTN) released an update that represents a routine, expected progression of the exploration program announced in May and June 2026. The news confirms the company is executing on the $1,000,000 earn-in option agreement signed in March 2026.
No new financial data, resource estimates, or strategic partnerships are disclosed. The update is incremental and aligns with prior management promises to conduct follow-up field programs.
Centurion Minerals Ltd. is a pre-revenue junior exploration company focused on precious minerals in the Americas. Its flagship asset is the Limestone Gold Project in Suriname, a 3,548-hectare concession situated in the Marowijne greenstone belt of the Guiana Shield. The project is strategically located less than 35 km west of Zijin Mining's producing Rosebel Gold Mine and 17 km west of the Saramacca Mine.
Centurion holds an earn-in option agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the project, which requires $500,000 in cash payments and $500,000 in exploration expenditures over six years. The property carries a 2% Net Smelter Return (NSR) royalty, with an option to purchase 1% NSR for $1,000,000. The exploration team is led by Dr. Dennis J. LaPoint, P.Geo., who previously contributed to the discovery of Newmont's Merian Mine in Suriname.
