Centurion Initiates Exploration on Limestone Gold Project

About this update from Centurion Minerals Ltd.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2026) - Centurion Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: CTN) ("Centurion", or the "Company") is pleased to announce that field work is about to commence on the Limestone Gold Project (the "Project"), located less than 35 kilometres ("km") west of Zijin Mining's ("Zijin") Rosebel Gold Mine and 17 km west of Zijin's Saramacca Mine in Suriname. (see Figure 1). An evaluation of historical information related to the Project, and regional exploration data from the 1990's and early 2000's is well underway by Centurion Geologists. Limestone lies within an area of historic near surface exploration, including stream sediment and auger sampling, but limited evaluation by drilling. The region also has a long history of small-scale mining and the resulting outcrop exposures are very useful exploration tools that can accelerate exploration on the Project as well as aid in evaluating surrounding areas of potential interest. A helicopter survey is scheduled to assist in identifying areas of recent artisanal mining in saprolite (weathered bedrock) and enable planning and implementation of the most effective ground evaluation, which is to include auger sampling and trenching. Local miners have established camps that can be used by Centurion's experienced geological crews. Road access to the Project will be more expedient once the current peak of the rainy season has abated. Dr. Dennis LaPoint, President of Centurion, commented: "The Limestone Gold Project lies in one of Suriname's most prolific gold districts, proximal to Zijin's producing Rosebel operation and within structural trends known to host major gold deposits. The Project has seen minimal modern exploration. Our team's initial reconnaissance, combined with the integration of historical data, will rapidly advance our understanding of structural controls and mineralization styles using current exploration techniques. The Project's road accessibility and proximity to existing mine infrastructure provide significant logistical advantages."
