(TSXV: OMG) (OTCQB: OMGGF) (\"Omai Gold\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce it has engaged SLR Consulting to complete an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for its 100% owned Omai Gold Project in Guyana, South America. The anticipated PEA will be supported by a mine plan that incorporates the much expanded Wenot open pit deposit, together with the immediately adjacent Gilt Creek underground deposit. This is an important milestone that sets the groundwork for a continued aggressive plan to advance the Omai Project towards development. The updated MRE is expected in Q1 2026, to be followed by the PEA in Q2 2026. SLR Consulting is an industry leader in mining advisory and technical services and has supported projects globally for more than 35 years. With multidisciplinary expertise and capabilities spanning geology, resource estimation, engineering, metallurgy, mine waste, and environment, SLR delivers end-to-end support across all stages of the mining life cycle. SLR's Mining Advisory team has extensive experience in all commodities and mining areas of the world and is a trusted partner to clients seeking independent, high-quality guidance and technical support.Elaine Ellingham, President and CEO commented: \"These next steps will provide all stakeholders with a better understanding of the size and value potential of the Omai Project. Omai has already been identified as the largest gold project in Guyana following our much increased Mineral Resource Estimate announced just five months ago, in August last year. Since then, we had five drills turning until just before the holiday break in December. The additional drilling will contribute to the updated MRE which will form the base for the PEA. We anticipate that this upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment will be transformational and will illuminate the pathway to development.\" ABOUT OMAI GOLDOmai Gold Mines Corp. is a Canadian gold exploration and development company focused on rapidly expanding the two orogenic gold deposits at its 100%-owned Omai Gold Project in mining-friendly Guyana, South America.
