LMS Latin Metals Inc

Latin Metals Inc. (“Latin Metals” or the “Company”) - (TSXV: LMS) (OTCQB: LMSQF) announces the acquisition by staking of an additional 400-hectare claim (the “Extension”), contiguous with its 100% owned Auquis Project (“Auquis” or the “Project”). The Extension is located south of the Rose copper porphyry target area, which has potential to host an extension of the Rose porphyry system. Potential to the south is supported by anomalous soils geochemistry samples taken by the Company prior to staking the property (Figure 1). Within the Rose porphyry zone, early-stage soil samples have correlated well with rock chip sampling anomalies over a 3km x 1.5km area.

Future exploration at Auquis is planned to include additional sampling at the Rose zone as well as additional work at the Blanco skarn target where skarn mineralization includes anomalous rock samples up 9.3% zinc, 6.1% lead, 2.8% copper and 176g/t silver at surface.

The Company also announces that it has entered into a loan agreement with a trust controlled by a director of the Company (the “Lender”) pursuant to which the Lender has agreed to provide an unsecured and non-interest-bearing loan to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of up to USD 100,000 (the “July 2024 Loan”) repayable by the Company on demand. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the July 2024 Loan to fund its resource properties option payment requirements and to meet its short-term corporate and working capital needs. The Company also announces that on April 28, 2024, it received an unsecured and non-interest-bearing loan (the “April 2024 Loan”; together with the July 2024 Loan, the “Loans”) in the principal amount of USD 100,000 from the Lender. The April 2024 Loan was repaid in May 2024. Neither of the Loans are convertible into or repayable in securities of the Company, and no bonus is payable to the Lender in connection with the Loans.

As the Lender is a trust controlled by a director of the Company, each of the Loans constitute a related party transaction pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 for exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements, respectively, of MI 61-101, as, at the time the loan agreements for the respective Loans were entered into by the Company with the Lender, neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of either of the Loans exceeded 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

QA/QC

The work program at Auquis was designed and supervised by Eduardo Leon, the Company's Exploration Manager. He is responsible for all aspects of the work, including the quality control/quality assurance program. On-site personnel at the project rigorously collect and track samples which are then security sealed and shipped to the ALS laboratory in Lima. Samples used for the results described herein are prepared and analyzed by multi-element analysis using an inductively coupled mass spectrometer in compliance with industry standards.

Soil samples were extracted from prospecting pits measuring 40cm x 40cm, where the uppermost A horizon was removed to collect the underlying B horizon. A total of 1.5 to 2.0 kg of B Horizon material was collected at each sampling site, before the sampling pit was reclaimed. A total of 10 samples were added to the previous grid of 200m north-south and 400m east-west orientation.
