G2 Goldfields Inc. (“
G2” or the
“
Company”) (TSX: GTWO; OTCQX: GUYGF) is pleased to
announce it has entered into agreements with a prominent Guyanese
mining family to acquire exploration rights to a 30,000-acre
package of highly prospective exploration properties in the
Aremu-Oko district, Guyana. The Oko gold district has emerged as
one of the most significant in Guyana and currently hosts combined
resources of 7.8 million ounces of gold. [Technical reports can be
found on SEDAR+, namely, NI 43-101 Technical Report and Mineral
Resource Estimate for the Oko Gold Property in the Co-operative
Republic of Guyana, South America dated June 20, 2024, with an
effective date of March 27, 2024, and Reunion Gold’s NI 43-101
Technical Report, Oko West Gold Project, Cuyuni-Mazaruni Mining
Districts, Guyana dated April 11, 2024, with an effective date of
February 26, 2024].
The current estimated gold resource for G2’s OKO-AREMU project
is 922,000 ounces of gold (indicated) and 1,099,000 ounces of gold
(inferred). G2 currently has five drills operating within the
district. This alliance further consolidates the Company’s dominant
land position, with G2 holding exploration rights to an area
totalling 60,000 acres in this district. G2 intends to file an
updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for OKO-AREMU deposits in
Q1 2025.
The new properties are comprised of three sets of contiguous
permits which host multiple historical gold occurrences along a
prominent 34 km long mineralized contact between the Aremu granite
and the volcano-sedimentary package, which hosts the majority of
the gold deposits in the district. The property package encompasses
the first hard rock gold mine in Guyana, Wariri, initially
discovered in the 1870s, alongside kilometres of artisanal
workings. The lands have never been drilled nor subjected to modern
exploration methods. G2 is currently preparing an independent NI
43-101 technical report on the properties which it expects to file
on SEDAR+ in the coming weeks.
Patrick Sheridan, Executive Chairman, stated, “We are very
excited about this partnership, the culmination of many months of
negotiations. Since its inception, G2 has worked with local
partners in exploring and developing this exciting gold district.
This most recent alliance further consolidates G2 as the major
player in the district. I am confident G2 will be able to fast
track drilling on several target areas. The Company is currently
mobilising significant resources to the areas and will be executing
a full sequence exploration program building upon prior exploration
success in the district.”
Corporate Reorganization
Further to the Company’s press release dated October 24, 2023,
G2 intends to distribute its “non-core” assets to shareholders, by
way of a plan of arrangement, in late 2024. The new company, “G3”,
will own assets in both the Puruni and OKO-AREMU districts
including three (3) historical past producers and exploration
rights to an area extending over 60,000 acres. G2 intends to add
additional assets to the G3 portfolio and, subject to shareholder
and regulatory approval, distribute the G3 shares to G2
shareholders on a ratio of one share of G3 for each two shares of
G2 held. Further details of the transaction will be provided in the
coming weeks.
