Brazil’s Mining Sector is Heating Up A new study by KPMG confirms what many in the industry have been feeling: momentum in Brazil’s mining sector is building. Mergers and acquisitions surged by over 40% in 2024—the highest number of deals in the last two decades. The driver? A global rush for critical minerals and a renewed interest for Brazilian mineral assets, especially among international investors. While much of the M&A activity has focused on lithium, rare earths, and other energy-transition metals, the overarching trend is clear: Brazil is on the radar of global capital, and that has positive implications for all mining explorers operating in the country. As an exploration company focused on gold, Lavras Gold is advancing a large-scale district with 24+ gold targets in southern Brazil. Our flagship LDS Project is actively drilling and road-accessible, with strong local support and growing investor interest.

Grade Meets Scale: Why Both Matter at the LDS Project At Lavras Gold’s LDS Project in southern Brazil, the variability of mineralization types is a key strength—and a major opportunity. Over 90,000 metres of drilling to date, +20,000 metres drilled by Lavras Gold & 70,000 metres drilled by predecessor companies, have confirmed a district-scale gold system with multiple mineralizing styles and events, including: - Bulk-tonnage metasomatic gold at Butiá and Fazenda do Posto - Cataclastic gold linked to northeast-trending structures at Caneleira and Olaria - Stockwork-style gold in fractured granitoids at Zeca Souza and Galvão With 24+ gold targets, this variety supports mining flexibility: High-grade zones offer high value, while lower-grade zones contribute to scale and size. Highlights include: - 236m @ 1.4 g/t Au from surface at Butiá - 340m @ 1.1 g/t Au incl. 160m @ 1.8 g/t Au at Fazenda do Posto - 4m @ 43.6 g/t Au and 15.0 m of 5.8 g/t Au at Zeca Souza Exploration is ongoing across multiple targets including Olaria and Caneleira.

Projeto Viver has resumed its activities—and we’re excited to share that the events are already fully booked through the end of the year. The first visit of 2025 welcomed students from a local school who participated in hands-on activities at the nursery, learning about native vegetation and supporting reforestation efforts. These visits are part of a broader community engagement and environmental education program led by Lavras Gold in partnership with local organizations. We’re also pleased to welcome biology student Edinara Lopes to the team as a project intern. Her involvement adds important academic and technical insight to the initiative. Based in Lavras do Sul, Projeto Viver continues to support environmental education and the cultivation of native species through hands-on community engagement.

Did you catch Lavras Gold’s drill results yesterday? Don’t miss this video with CEO Michael Durose as he shares key insights on the 251.0 metres @ 1.2 g/t gold drill results at the Fazenda do Posto Gold Target. These drill results illustrate how the mineralized footprint is extended to the northwest. 12 holes were drilled, with 11 returning gold mineralization—further confirming the presence of a broad consistently mineralized system. Metallurgical testing is underway, and drilling continues at Butiá, Fazenda do Posto, and north to the Olaria discovery.

Lavras Gold Corp. Intersects 1.2 g/t Gold over 251 Metres at Fazenda do Posto Gold Target, LDS Project, Southern Brazil Lavras Gold ($LGC.V) has released the results from 12 new drill holes representing 4007 metres testing the Fazenda do Posto Gold Target. Results included a major intercept of 251.0 metres grading 1.2 g/t gold from hole 24BT043, drilled in the previously untested area between the Butiá Deposit and the Fazenda do Posto Discovery. The results extend the mineralized footprint to the northwest. These results reinforce the robust and continuous nature of the mineralization in this large gold system at the LDS Project, underscoring the potential scale of mineralization across the western corridor. Key highlights include: * 24BT043: 251.0 m @ 1.2 g/t Au - Including 100.0 m @ 2.2 g/t Au - Including 10.0 m @ 4.6 g/t Au * 24FP032: 139.0 m @ 1.0 g/t Au - Including 34.0 m @ 1.8 g/t Au - Including 19.0 m @ 2.1 g/t Au * 11 of 12 holes hit gold mineralization * Mineralized corridor extended over 150 metres northwest * Results governed by NE/SW structural controls, enhancing geological understanding The structure at Fazenda do Posto is now emerging as a near-vertical, pipe-like system that starts near surface and extends to at least 400 metres in depth. Together with Butiá, this zone strengthens the geological model and strongly supports the Lavras;s long-term goal of defining an economically viable gold mine. Metallurgical testing at Butiá is nearing completion, and detailed work has now begun at Fazenda do Posto—two important steps toward project de-risking. Looking ahead, Lavras Gold will continue drilling in the Butiá/Fazenda corridor and to the north at the Caneleira concession, where the Olaria discovery was made in December 2024.

Next Up in Lavras Gold CEO Discussions with Michael Durose: Why Will the Hub & Spoke Model Work at the LDS Project? In this episode, CEO Michael Durose explains how a hub-and-spoke model could maximize the value of the LDS Project. The strategy involves establishing a centralized mining and processing facility, likely on the west side of the property, with multiple ore sources feeding into it. This model offers key advantages by allowing Lavras Gold to blend higher-grade ore from targets like Zeca Souza with lower-grade bulk tonnage ore from Butiá or Fazenda do Posto. By optimizing the mill feed, this approach can optimize grades and enhance project economics. With the variety of gold mineralization types across the property, this strategy allows mining flexibility and is well-suited to unlocking the full potential of the LDS Project.

Gold Breaks New Record—Momentum Builds for 2025 and Beyond This week Gold hit another all-time high, with spot prices climbing above $3,083 per ounce and futures reaching higher, driven by safe-haven demand amid escalating global trade tensions and expectations of Fed rate cuts. Goldman Sachs has once again raised its year-end forecast—now predicting $3,300 per ounce—citing sustained central bank buying and renewed investor interest in gold-backed ETFs. If ETF demand accelerates further, they suggest prices could climb as high as $3,680 per ounce. What does this mean for Lavras Gold? Higher gold prices strengthen the economics of our LDS Project in Brazil, increasing margins and offering new options for various types of development funding. With 24+ known gold targets across our district-scale land package, Lavras Gold is well-positioned to benefit from this strong gold market dynamic.

Explorando a Geologia com a Comunidade: A Rota do Ouro em Lavras do Sul . Trabalhar com geologia vai muito além das rochas e minerais. É sobre conectar pessoas ao solo que pisam, ao passado geológico que moldou suas cidades e trazer pertencimento. Por isso, participar do projeto Rota do Ouro da Lavras Gold Corp. tem sido uma experiência incrível! Por meio deste projeto, temos a oportunidade de levar conhecimento sobre geologia e mineração para crianças e para a população em geral, despertando a curiosidade e valorizando a importância desses temas no nosso dia a dia. É gratificante ver o brilho nos olhos das crianças ao aprenderem sobre como os minerais fazem parte da vida delas, desde os lápis que usam na escola até os celulares e computadores. Além disso, é essencial reforçar o papel da mineração responsável, que une desenvolvimento e respeito ao meio ambiente e às comunidades. Educação transforma e aproxima! Poder compartilhar esse conhecimento é um privilégio e um compromisso que levo comigo. Que mais iniciativas como essa possam surgir e fortalecer o diálogo entre mineração e sociedade! Fernanda

Fazenda do Posto: A Blind Discovery with Significant Potential Lavras Gold’s Fazenda do Posto deposit, located just 150 meters west of the Butiá deposit, continues to demonstrate strong potential for gold mineralization. This blind discovery has revealed impressive results through ongoing drilling. Key highlights include: * Discovery Hole 23FP002: 340 meters grading 1.1 g/t gold, including 160 meters at 1.8 g/t gold and additional higher-grade intervals. * Scissor Hole 23FP006: 204 meters grading 1.0 g/t gold starting from 31 meters. * Hole 24FP016: 59 meters grading 2.9 g/t gold from 233 meters, confirming a high-grade core. Fazenda do Posto is interpreted as a pipe-like structure with a 200-meter areal extent and gold mineralization found to a depth of 400 meters. The deposit remains open for expansion, offering further exploration potential. Learn more about Fazenda do Posto here: https://lnkd.in/gasDWikX #Gold #Exploration #Mining #Brazil #Discovery #Geology
