WINSHEAR COMPLETES 1,005 METRES OF DRILLING IN FOUR DIAMOND DRILL HOLES AT THE GABAN GOLD PROJECT IN PERU

Winshear Gold Corp. has completed its maiden drill program at the Gaban gold project, southeastern Peru. The program included four diamond drill holes totalling 1,005 metres from two drill sites 125 metres apart. Winshear's maiden drill program at Gaban is the first ever carried out on the property with the intent of testing the width of the shear zone hosting the gold mineralized quartz veins.

The drill program at the Coritiri gold zone confirmed the presence of a weakly to moderately sheared sequence of intercalated slate and fine siltstones with some crosscutting fine-grained microdioritic sills. The sequence is cut by millimetre- to centimetre-sized quartz veins/veinlets hosting pyrite, pyrrhotite and traces of chalcopyrite. Additionally, the sheared slate also contains fine disseminated pyrite and pyrrhotite.

Assays from the drill program are expected in first quarter 2025 and will be reported upon receipt.

Winshear's 2024 exploration program included the completion of an 8.6-kilometre access road to the Coritiri gold zone to support the drill program. A staging field camp and the preparation of two drill sites were completed for the helicopter-supported diamond drill program.

Mobilization of the drill equipment commenced on Sept. 21, and drilling began the first week of October. The drill program was curtailed due to the early onset of heavy rains, which made supply logistics difficult and ineffective, and compromised the health and safety of the field crew.

Gaban is located in the Puno orogenic gold belt at the juncture of the San Gaban and Inambari rivers, which then drain into the Madre de Dios basin, where extensive alluvial gold mining covers a 1,800-square-kilometre area. The company is investigating Gaban as one of the potential hardrock sources for the alluvial gold being mined at Madre de Dios and on the Gaban project itself.

Winshear sets out to test several shear-hosted gold zones that have returned significant gold values in several surface channel sampling programs. Previous sampling campaigns have outlined a gold mineralized shear zone extending over a one-kilometre-by-two-kilometre area with quartz vein sampling returning gold assaying up to 11.2 grams per tonne gold. The gold anomalous zone remains open along strike to the east and southeast.

The Coritiri gold zone was initially identified from interpretation of airborne magnetic data, flown in 2018, which inferred the presence of an eight-kilometre-by-one-kilometre northwest-southeast linear target adjacent to a 6.5-kilometre-by-3.0-kilometre northwest-southeast-trending magnetic high. The geophysical anomaly is coincident with a five-kilometre-long series of gold-in-stream sediment anomalies located within the Yanamayo River catchment. The underlying geology of the area comprises sheared and deformed siltstones and slates with foliation typically striking northwest-southeast and dipping moderately to the southwest.

There are several artisanal workings in the Yanamayo catchment that develop placer gold deposits, where Winshear field crews have observed local alluvial miners extracting nuggets weighing up to 54 grams. There are several prospect pits and short adits on outcropping quartz veins, where visible gold has been sampled and mapped.

About Winshear Gold Corp.

Winshear is a Canadian-based mineral exploration company advancing the Gaban gold project in the Puno region of Peru. The company considers Gaban to be one of the hardrock sources of gold contributing to the 700-square-kilometre Madre de Dios alluvial goldfield, located 50 km north of, and downstream from, the Gaban gold project.
