LMS Latin Metals Inc

Latin Metals Inc. (“Latin Metals” or the “Company”) - (TSXV: LMS) (OTCQB: LMSQF) provides an update on recent exploration results at its Cerro Bayo (“Cerro Bayo”) and La Flora (“La Flora”) projects.

Positive Exploration Results at La Flora

Samples were collected from two outcropping structures where visible gold was observed as part of a grey, microgranular silica event within the La Flora project area. Assay results from these samples returned values of up to 82 g/t gold and 1,239 g/t silver. To the north, these structures are concealed beneath overburden material and further testing of these bonanza-grade veins will need to be undertaken as part of future drilling.

Cerro Bayo and Regional Significance

The Cerro Bayo district is located within the highly prospective Deseado Massif geological province, an area known for its significant precious metal deposits. The region has a long history of mining activity and hosts several producing and past-producing mines, highlighting its exploration potential. The mineralization in the area is typically associated with epithermal systems that have yielded high-grade gold and silver deposits. Latin Metals’ exploration efforts at Cerro Bayo are supported by a wealth of historical data from previous operators, including Barrick Gold, and demonstrate the potential for further discoveries within this established mining jurisdiction.

Argentina’s mining sector has seen increasing foreign investment due to its rich mineral endowment and improving regulatory framework. The country is recognized for its world-class gold, silver, and lithium deposits, with the Santa Cruz province, in particular, playing a vital role in Argentina’s gold and silver production. Latin Metals’ Cerro Bayo and La Flora projects align with this broader trend of mineral development and underscore the company’s commitment to unlocking value through systematic exploration and strategic partnerships.

Initial exploration in the Cerro Bayo project was completed by Barrick Gold. In late 2024, the Latin Metals team completed additional mapping at Cerro Bayo and expanded exploration to La Flora for the first time, using Barrick’s historical data as a foundation to standardize lithological interpretations in the La Flora area.

Updated Presentation

The Company’s technical presentation for Cerro Bayo has been significantly updated to include geological mapping, sampling, and photographs of outcropping altered and mineralized rocks results at drill target scale. Identification of visible gold during our first exploration at the La Flora project reflects the district-scale perspective of the Cerro Bayo district.

Next Steps

The Company has completed all work and met all requirements for granting of an exploration and drilling permit. We are hopeful that the permit will be approved by government authorities in Q1 2025.
