[{"type":"text","content":" Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 12, 2026) - Lavras Gold Corp. (TSXV: LGC) (OTCQX: LGCFF) (\"Lavras Gold\" or the \"Company) is pleased to announce it has successfully concluded the previously announced specialist technical workshop undertaken to review the geological model, exploration results, and targeting strategy at its Lavras do Sul Project (\"LDS Project\" or the \"Project\") in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil (see news release dated April 14, 2026). The Company's exploration team, led by Interim Vice President of Exploration, Jonathan Hill, worked alongside independent geoscience specialists, has advanced the Company's understanding of the mineral system and highlights areas where exploration approaches can be refined. \"We are excited to have hosted this expert site visit at the LDS Project in Brazil as a number of valuable findings have emerged,\" commented Interim Vice President of Exploration, Jonathan Hill. \"The primary targets remain large-scale, bulk tonnage systems, which leverages the Project's district-scale presence, with numerous targets showing the potential to be incorporated into a unified economic model. The identification of shallow high-grade vein style mineralization, though limited in scale relative to the bulk tonnage mineralization, also represent attractive targets in the context of potential early-stage mine development and cash flow generation.\" Workshop Highlights and Key Findings The workshop focused on database interrogation and integration; core sample review and in-field verification; and collaborative interpretation and target generation, which was designed to transition from high-level data review to identification of priority targets and confirmation of the Project's geological framework (see Fig. 1 for targets on the LDS Project). Figure 1. Map showing the relative location of the mineral resources, drill defined mineralized envelopes and exploration targets, Lavras do Sul. Findings confirmed the LDS Project geology is interpreted as a large alkaline intrusive system developed within an extensional, post-orogenic tectonic setting with significant mantle contribution. This environment is considered permissive for the formation of alkalic intrusion-related gold/base metals systems as well as iron oxide copper gold (IOCG) style mineralization.
