Serabi Gold plc (AIM: SRB, TSX: SBI), the Brazilian-focused gold mining and development company, is pleased to provide assay results from recent surface and underground exploration drillholes into the Chico da Santa sector, as well as the first results into the newly discovered Pele sector at the Palito Gold Mine, Para State, northern Brazil.

This exploration programme is targeting strike and resource extension of the established Ipe and Mongo veins with results confirming extension along strike and at depth.

Highlights

On 11 May 2021 the Company disclosed the first results from step out exploration drilling into the Ipe and Mogno veins of the Chico da Santa ('CDS') sector, located in the eastern limits of the Palito deposit. Over the past 3 months, this drilling programme has recommenced and remains ongoing. The programme has been extended to include the adjacent veins in the CDS sector, including the Jatoba vein to the west, and the neighbouring veins of the newly identified Pele sector to the east, namely Bebeto, Romario and Pele veins.

Mike Hodgson, CEO of Serabi, commented: 'There are some excellent intercepts in this latest batch of results. The established lodes, Ipe and Mogno, that are located within the CDS sector, were the cornerstone of the Palito Complex production during 2021. They are high grade lodes and made a significant contribution to the grade improvement of 28% seen in 2021 when compared to 2020. It is therefore exciting to see these intercepts which extend the veins well beyond the current mine limits, both along strike and at depth. The results suggest a possibility of improving grades and payability with depth, which bodes well for the future. 'The underground development of the Ipe/Mogno veins during 2021 also brought the opportunity to drill long exploration holes laterally.

Some holes drilled to the west have intersected extensions of the Jatoba vein. Whilst the Jatoba structure was mined 3 years ago, there was, at that time, insufficient geological data to support further development. These new holes have cut the Jatoba vein well to the south of the original mine workings, with hole PDD0558 recording 33.76g/t Au over 2.0 metres, 400 metres south of the Jatoba mine workings, clearly suggesting great strike potential to add resources. 'Underground drilling to the east of Ipe/Mogno has resulted in identifying the Pele sector, another new area at Palito. The Pele sector hosts the veins Bebeto, Romario and the Pele vein itself and the early results again highlight this is a sector of excellent potential. This drilling is now being supplemented by surface exploration. 'Serabi will continue to push forward with its exploration campaign as we seek to drive resource growth and continue our track record of reserve replacement, together with our objective of increasing production towards our goal of becoming a 100,000 ounce per annum gold producer.'
