(TSX-V: CPI | OTCQB: NBRFF) (“\n \n Carlton\n \n ” or the “\n \n Company\n \n ”) is pleased to report that it has received assay results from recent surface channel sampling program across multiple silver-lead-zinc (Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn) veins at its Esquilache Project in southern Peru (“Esquilache” or the “Project”). Twenty-four channel and panel rock chip samples were collected across the surface from mineralized veins in the Mamacocha and Creston Zones. Results from this sampling program returned multiple high-grade gold, silver, lead and manganese values including high values of 13.45 g/t Au, 1018 g/t Ag, and 10.87% Mn (see Table 1).\n \n\n The sampling program completed in late 2024 targeted multiple veins of the Mamacocha and Creston Zones. Samples with the highest silver, lead and manganese grades were from the Elvira and Ivet veins. High gold values were reported from Franja de Oro, the Project’s gold belt where a stockwork zone (400m x 200m) of quartz-sulfide veinlets developed along the Ivet Vein had been defined by surface sampling and drilling by previous operators (see Figure 2).\n \n\n Highlights from the recent surface channel sampling include:\n \n\n\n 0.8m @ 6.771 g/t Au, 317.0 g/t Ag – Gold Belt, Mamacocha Zone\n \n\n 1.5m @ 5.449 g/t Au, 51.3 g.t Ag – Gold Belt, Mamacocha Zone\n \n\n 0.6m @ 13.45 g/t Au, 515.0 g/t Ag – Estefany Vein, Mamacocha Zone\n \n\n 1.8m @ 0.396 g/t Au, 247.0 g/t Ag – Elvira Vein, Mamacocha Zone\n \n\n 0.8m @ 0.202 g/t Au, 362.0 g/t Ag – Katy Vein, Mamacocha Zone\n \n\n 1.2m @ 198 g/t Ag – Sepulveda Vein, Creston Zone\n \n\n\n Martin Walter, CEO of Carlton Precious commented, “These results from exploration at our flagship property are very exciting and are what we typically see at Esquilache. The program was designed to map and sample new areas and tie them into what we already know geologically and have mapped at the Project. Esquilache is an advanced stage silver project that hosted a mine operation in the 1960’s. It’s within silver Andean cordillera that covers an area in southern Peru and parts of Bolivia which is th...
