Orestone Advances Exploration at Tom East and Kelly Gold Zones in Argentina

Orestone Mining Corp. has initiated follow-up exploration at the recently discovered Tom East and the Kelly gold zones, located on its Francisca Gold-Silver Project in Salta Province, Argentina. The company's current focus is on expanding the mineralized footprint and defining high-priority drill targets in advance of an upcoming drilling program.

The Francisca Gold Trend has been traced over a northwest strike length of 1,500 meters, revealing an oxide gold-silver system at surface across multiple zones including North, South, Kelly, and Tom East. These zones are situated within a 500 to 1,000 meter wide area of altered sediments, further defined by a significant geophysical anomaly indicating potential gold-silver mineralization.

Past exploration at the Tom East discovery yielded high-grade gold, with one trench returning 4.45 g/t gold over 21 meters. To refine this target, Orestone is implementing a detailed soil sampling program on a 20x20 meter grid. Exploration at the Kelly Gold Zone, potentially an extension of the South Gold Zone, involves additional mapping and sampling, with prior results indicating a 50-meter wide zone averaging 0.37 g/t gold and 2.15 g/t silver.

David Hottman, CEO of Orestone Mining Corp., stated that exploration continues to demonstrate the project's scale and growth potential. The company is efficiently identifying drill targets by integrating geological mapping, geochemistry, and geophysics, with the aim of defining an oxide gold deposit suitable for open-pit mining.

Orestone Mining Corp. is a Canadian-based company with a portfolio of projects in Canada and Argentina, exploring for gold, silver, and copper. The company is focused on advancing its properties systematically to define economically viable mineral deposits.
