Central RC Drill Results
Results have also been received from 17 RC drill holes which form part of the ongoing drill program aimed at upgrading significant Inferred gold-in-oxide resources at the Central gold deposit to Indicated resources. Most of these holes were drilled over the northern part of the Central gold deposit (Figure 5) and of the 17 holes reported here, 14 are outside the current pit shell that was used in the recent PFS study to mine the gold-in-oxide mineralization (see press release dated 21st October 2024).
Significant results from holes drilled outside the current pit shell include 56m @ 0.85 g/t gold in RC0475, 41m @ 0.37 g/t gold in RC0476, 9m @ 0.95 g/t gold in RC0462 and 5m @ 1.25 g/t and 12m @ 0.54 g/t gold in RC0465 and 8m @ 0.57 g/t and 7m @ 1.20 g/t gold in RC0474, 24m @ 0.34 g/t gold in RC0464 (Figure 5).
The complete set of drill results are shown in Table 2.

The Central gold deposit includes a significant gold-in-oxide Inferred resource and these recent drill results suggest that a significant portion of these Inferred resources could be converted to Indicated resources during the coming months. These ultimately could be included in an updated mine plan for the gold-in-oxide material at Central. Drilling is ongoing at Central with additional results expected in the near future.

About Cabral Gold Inc.
The Company is a junior resource company engaged in the identification, exploration and development of mineral properties, with a primary focus on gold properties located in Brazil. The Company has a 100% interest in the Cuiú Cuiú gold district located in the Tapajós Region, within the state of Pará in northern Brazil. Two main gold deposits have so far been defined at the Cuiú Cuiú project which contains National Instrument 43-101 compliant Indicated resources of 21.6Mt @ 0.87 g/t gold (604,000 oz) and Inferred resources of 19.8Mt @ 0.84 g/t gold (534,500 oz) as per the 43-101 technical report dated October 12, 2022.
The Tapajós Gold Province is the site of the largest gold rush in Brazil's history which according to the ANM (Agência Nacional de Mineração or National Mining Agency of Brazil) produced an estimated 30 to 50 million ounces of placer gold between 1978 and 1995. Cuiú Cuiú was the largest area of placer workings in the Tapajós and produced an estimated 2Moz of placer gold historically.
