[{"type":"text","content":"Omai Gold Drills 1.0 g/t Au over 774m at Gilt Creek, Including 2.0 g/t Au over 64m and 1.9 g/t Au over 48mToronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 24, 2025) - Omai Gold Mines Corp. (TSXV: OMG) (OTCQB: OMGGF) (\"Omai\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce assay results from the Company's first hole (24ODD-095) drilled at the Gilt Creek gold deposit - one of two orogenic gold deposits at its 100%-owned Omai Gold Project in Guyana. This hole intersected 774m of the targeted gold mineralized Omai Stock, an intrusive rock unit that produced 2.4 million ounces of gold between 1993-20052. The hole also expands the known Omai Stock a further 200m laterally beyond the previously drilled limit and still ended within the intrusion. This is the first completed drill hole at Gilt Creek since the lower deposit was outlined in 2006-2007 with a drill campaign of 46 holes totalling approximately 27,000 metres. A second hole is planned for Gilt Creek.Highlights from hole 24ODD-095 include: The extent of the gold mineralization stands out: the 774m length of the quartz diorite intrusion averaged 1.0 g/t Au1 2.00 g/t Au over 64.0mincluding 5.79 g/t Au over 9.0mand including 2.68 g/t Au over 12.5m1.90 g/t Au over 48.0mincluding 4.19 g/t Au over 7.5mand including 2.47 g/t Au over 10.5m2.14 g/t Au over 37.5mincluding 2.62 g/t Au over 24.2m198.3m of the higher-grade intervals (not continuous) are over 1.5 g/t Au and give a weighted average grade of 2.78 g/t Au.Intersected mineralization first at a vertical depth of 225m within pyrrhotite-rich volcanics, assaying 2.0 g/t Au over 10.5m and 1.59 g/t Au over 7.5m below the diabase dike (Figure 2).Extended gold mineralization approximately 200m laterally to the southwest, to a vertical depth of 850m in an area with no prior drilling (Figure 2).38 separate occurrences of visible gold between 442m and 1,139m (see Figure 4).Elaine Ellingham, President & CEO, commented: \"In addition to our recent drill results that show strong potential to expand the Wenot resource, the Gilt Creek underground deposit is a major growth lever at the Omai Gold Project. Core samples from this hole will be used to advance metallurgical test work, augmenting data from the historical production. This drilling also assists the underground mine design and planning to incorporate Gilt Creek into an updated PEA anticipated ...
