There hadn't been any negative publicity for some time, so on seeing the DR people increasing their holdings, presumably based on good local information, it looks like we all got lulled into complacency on the 'social license' score du jour ... there was a small aside Luis made in one of those Adelaide videos, with just a touch of irritation, that made me think for a moment ... but hey, only a moment, lol

There are local people in the immediate area who are in favour of Romero, they can see the good modern jobs coming for their kids, in what is now a very poor district ... the company has held many meetings, there was a poll showing majority in favour, probably conducted by or paid for by the company, i don't recall ... water is a huge and valid concern, the thing is that none of No contingent recognise that an underground mine using base metal processes and recycling its own water in a clean contained fashion can operate without fouling regional water supply ... the core belief they promote is that you can have water, or you can have mining, but not both ... which we know to be bullshit, for any modern company smart enough to survive, but the full story won't fit on a protest sign

It's an island with a lot of history and an historically built-in deep-seated culture of corruption, now trying to rise out of that like so much of LatAm, with mixed success ... central figure in the No Minera organisation is a guy named Félix Bautista, sanctioned under the Magnitsky Act among many other things, he's been senador for San Juan for years, and as long as he can remain so, he's immune from prosecution, so he's got skin in the game - en.wikipedia.org

The days of the halt and re-open i was in BC but not exactly in touch, had intermittent weak cell service and wasn't paying attention, busy, until jolted awake by the drop, lol ... managed to reload a few in the .40s and .50s, now back to near eighty per cent of peak shares held last year ... and duly chastened by the experience, for sure

mai.v - reloaded a bunch yesterday and missed by pennies on a bid this morning ... really don't like the new name, but they'll promote it to the sky on that, and it was less than two thirds of what i was selling it for, every time it went over the warrant price of 7.05 [were people not watching that? geez] ... also added rio.to, tsk.to, whn.v ... looking forward now to gap-fill on gqc, a print of 1.55, not holding my breath, but it will come after the ESIA, possibly a new mining law, and renewed campaigning by LSP and crew

GoldQuest Reports High-Grade Assay Results from Metallurgical Drilling at Romero Gold-Copper Project, Dominican Republic

newsfilecorp.com

May 28, 2026 5:02 PM EDT | Source: GoldQuest Mining Corp.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 28, 2026) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) (OTCQX: GDQMF) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to report assay results from five metallurgical drill holes completed at the Company's 100%-owned Romero Gold-Copper Project in San Juan Province, Dominican Republic.

The metallurgical holes, LTP-171 through LTP-175, were drilled to provide fresh representative core for the ongoing geo-metallurgical program and bankable feasibility study work. The assay results confirm multiple high-grade gold-copper intervals within the Romero deposit, while metallurgical test work completed to date continues to support conventional processing assumptions and ongoing process design work.

Highlights:

High-grade assays from metallurgical drilling: The five-hole program returned several high-grade gold-copper intervals from the central Romero deposit, including 38.6 m grading 45.01 g/t Au, 14.31 g/t Ag and 2.44% Cu in LTP-173, including 26.85 m grading 63.82 g/t Au, 18.93 g/t Ag and 3.23% Cu.
Additional strong intercepts: Hole LTP-172 returned 27.55 m grading 17.61 g/t Au, 6.07 g/t Ag and 1.40% Cu, including 10.1 m grading 38.71 g/t Au, 10.80 g/t Ag and 2.76% Cu. Hole LTP-174 returned 30.5 m grading 16.47 g/t Au, 2.79 g/t Ag and 1.59% Cu, including 11.6 m grading 34.46 g/t Au, 4.20 g/t Ag and 2.76% Cu.
Positive local reconciliation: An initial internal reconciliation exercise comparing the new drill results with the resource block model within 10 m diameter cylinders around the metallurgical holes indicates a positive comparison. Further details are provided in the reconciliation section and Table 2 below.
Integration into ongoing technical work: The new drilling is being evaluated for integration into the ongoing mineral resource estimate update and bankable feasibility study workstreams.
Metallurgical performance supports Romero development path: Geo-metallurgical domains tested to date are considered amenable to conventional comminution and flotation processing methods, with flotation test work consistent with recovery assumptions applied in the NI 43-101 Pre-Feasibility Study Technical Report for the Romero Gold Project, Dominican Republic, dated November 10, 2016 (the "2016 PFS").
Process optimization opportunities identified: Test work indicates potential for coarser grinding requirements for flotation without loss of recovery, and preliminary results suggest target recoveries may be achievable without the inclusion of a gravity circuit, subject to completion of the test program.

Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest, commented: "These metallurgical drill holes were completed to support ongoing technical studies and provide representative material for geo-metallurgical analysis. In addition to providing fresh information regarding mineralization within the Romero deposit, the results contribute to a broader technical understanding that will be incorporated into ongoing engineering and evaluation work. The localized favorable comparison with the existing block model also provides additional technical information that will be reviewed as part of ongoing studies."

Drill Results Summary:

Figure 1 shows the location of the drillholes and Table 1 summarizes selected significant assay intervals from the five metallurgical drill holes. Interval grades are calculated using uncapped assays. Intervals may not represent true widths. There is insufficient drilling to determine the exact orientation and thickness of the mineralized zones at this time.

Local Reconciliation with the Resource Block Model:

GoldQuest completed an initial internal reconciliation exercise using the new drill hole assays, updated collar and survey information, and a simplified comparison against the resource block model within 10 m diameter cylinders around the metallurgical drill holes. The results are preliminary, internal and are not a mineral resource estimate. A fully updated resource model is expected to consider lithology, alteration, structural controls, estimation parameters and classification criteria.

On this preliminary local basis, the new metallurgical holes compare positively with the existing model. The 10 m cylinder exercise indicates a 43% increase in gold grade, with positive changes in copper and silver grades of 9% and 7%, respectively, considering the five metallurgical holes at a 1.0 g/t Au cut-off. The same local comparison indicates increases of 48% in contained gold ounces, 13% in contained copper and 11% in contained silver within the evaluated 10 m cylinders.

Table 2: Preliminary internal model comparison

		Average Value			Material Content
	Mass	Au	Cu	Ag	Au	Cu	Ag
	t	g/t	%	g/t	t. oz	thousand lb	t. oz
Total	+4%	+43%	+9%	+7%	+48%	+13%	+11%

Note: Table 2 is based on an internal preliminary comparison within 10 m diameter cylinders around the metallurgical drill holes and is not a mineral resource estimate. The results are intended to illustrate local reconciliation only and do not represent a global update of the Romero block model.

Geo-metallurgical Program Results:

The geo-metallurgical program is a key component of the ongoing bankable feasibility study and has focused on representative samples from defined domains within the Romero deposit. The work completed to date indicates that the tested geo-metallurgical domains are all amenable to conventional comminution and flotation processing methods, supporting the process route contemplated for Romero.

Comminution testing has identified variation in SAG work indices, particularly for softer ores, providing additional information to better align operating cost assumptions with geology. Flotation test work has identified opportunities to evaluate coarser grinding requirements without loss of recovery, while remaining consistent with recovery assumptions applied in the 2016 PFS.

Preliminary test work also suggests that target recoveries may be achievable without the inclusion of a gravity circuit, which could simplify the final flowsheet if confirmed by the remaining work. Mineralogical investigations have been completed to support metallurgical interpretation and address previously identified data gaps, and tailings samples have been generated for ongoing rheological and paste backfill test work.

The results reported remain preliminary and subject to completion of the test program, engineering analysis and integration into the bankable feasibility study. Final metallurgical conclusions and design criteria will be reported as the program advances.

Program Status and Next Steps:

The metallurgical drill holes were completed as part of the Company's broader geo-metallurgical program for Romero. The program is designed to provide fresh material for comminution, flotation, variability and life-of-mine composite test work, as well as additional geological information to support the feasibility study.

GoldQuest is evaluating the integration of the new metallurgical drilling into the ongoing mineral resource estimate update and related feasibility study workstreams. The Company will provide further updates as metallurgical test work, resource modelling and engineering studies advance.

QA-QC

Core from these holes was partially assayed as part of the metallurgical test program at ALS Metallurgy at Kamloops, Canada, and the remainder of the core was assayed at Bureau Veritas. As part of the Company's Quality Assurance and Quality Control procedures ("QA/QC"), the Company reviews results from Certified Standard Reference Materials ("CRSM" or "Standards"), which are inserted at a rate of five per 100 samples. Within the results disclosed herein there were no samples with results outside of the recommended tolerances for the Standards. In GoldQuest's drill programs, composite intervals were chosen using a combination of geological criteria and mineralization, averaging around two metres core length. The drill core is cut in half with one half of the core sample shipped to Bureau Veritas Labs by GoldQuest technicians. The remaining half of the core is kept at the Company core shack for future assay verification, or any other further investigation. Assays within intervals below the 0.005 g/t detection limit for Au were given a 0.0025 g/t value. All drill samples were prepared and screened by ACME Labs (Vancouver); metallic fire assay and multi-element ICP-MS were assayed by Bureau Veritas Laboratories (Vancouver). Gold values are determined by standard fire assay with an AA finish, or, if over 10.0 g/t Au, were re-assayed and completed with a gravimetric finish. Copper and zinc values exceeding 0.2% were re-assayed with a 4-acid digestion and AAS finish. When zinc values exceeded 10% a classic titration was carried out for zinc. QA/QC included the insertion and continual monitoring of numerous standards, blanks and duplicates into the sample stream, at random intervals within each batch.

GoldQuest Extends High-Grade Polymetallic VMS Mineralization at Cachimbo Target, Dominican Republic

newsfilecorp.com

May 28, 2026 12:00 PM EDT | Source: GoldQuest Mining Corp.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 28, 2026) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) (OTCQX: GDQMF) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") reports new assay results from the ongoing exploration campaign at the Cachimbo target.

Drill hole TIR-26-62, a follow-up to discovery hole TIR-26-58, intersected 12.15 metres of high-grade polymetallic VMS mineralization, confirming continuity of the newly identified high-grade mineralized level.

The new intercept confirms a gold-silver-copper-zinc-lead VMS level at Cachimbo and opens additional potential along trend, particularly toward the northwest. The results provide additional geological information regarding the mineralized system and will be incorporated into ongoing geological interpretation and drill targeting activities.

TIR-26-62: 12.15 m @ 8.60 g/t Au, 128.2 g/t Ag, 0.77% Cu, 11.21% Zn and 0.34% Pb from 277.35 m depth.
High-Grade VMS Level Confirmed: The new intercept follows TIR-26-58 and provides a second high-grade intersection of the polymetallic VMS level, supporting continuity of the mineralized horizon.
Very High Zinc Values: A sub-interval returned 3.35 m @ 9.95 g/t Au, 120.7 g/t Ag, 2.39% Cu, 35.85% Zn and 0.56% Pb. One sample returned zinc above the upper detection limit (>40% Zn) and is being re-analyzed by the laboratory.
Open Along Trend: The new result opens potential along trend, particularly toward the northwest, and supports further drill testing at Cachimbo and within the broader 7.5 km anomalous corridor.
Additional Results Pending: Assays from a stringer zone below the high-grade VMS level remain pending and will be reported once received and reviewed.

Hole TIR-26-62 was drilled as a follow-up to TIR-26-58, which confirmed a new mineralized parallel structure at Cachimbo earlier in 2026. Located 60 metres to the northeast of TIR-26-58, the new hole intersected a high-grade polymetallic interval hosted in the same style of VMS mineralization, providing a second significant intersection and strengthening the interpretation of a continuous high-grade VMS level.

The presence of high-grade gold, silver, copper, zinc and lead in TIR-26-62 confirms the high-tenor polymetallic character of the system. Importantly, the new 12.15 metre intercept supports potential continuation of the mineralized horizon along trend, especially toward the Northwest, where GoldQuest sees meaningful opportunity to expand the Cachimbo target and test related anomalies along the previously identified 7.5 km corridor.

Table 1: Results from hole TIR-26-62

HoleID	From (m)	To (m)	Interval (m)	Au g/t	Cu %	Ag g/t	Pb %	Zn %	Au Eq g/t
TIR-26-62	112.9	115.0	2.1	2.97	0.02	26.9	0.09	0.17	3.35
TIR-26-62	277.35	289.5	12.15	8.60	0.77	128.2	0.34	11.21	14.14
Including	277.35	278.36	1.01	23.9	0.61	157.3	0.81	7.65	28.63
and	279.35	282.7	3.35	9.95	2.39	120.7	0.56	35.85	24.38
and	285.5	289.5	4.0	8.72	0.07	207.4	0.30	0.66	11.29

*Interval grades are calculated using uncapped assays. Intervals may not represent true widths. There is insufficient drilling to determine the exact orientation of the mineralized zones at this time. AuEq was calculated by using metal prices of Au US$ 3,450/ounce, Cu US$ 5.1/pound, Ag US$ 37.4/ounce, Zn US$ 3,280/tonne and Pb US$ 1,920/tonne. No metal recoveries were utilized. One sample within the high-grade zinc interval returned zinc above the laboratory upper detection limit (>40% Zn) and is being re-analyzed; final zinc values may be updated when the re-analysis is complete.

Assays from a stringer zone below the high-grade VMS level in TIR-26-62 remain pending. The Company considers this zone important because stringer-style mineralization can provide vectoring information toward VMS feeder zones and may help refine follow-up drilling.

Figure 1 below shows a plan view of the current drill progress at Cachimbo, including holes TIR-26-58 and TIR-26-62. Figure 2 will show a representative cross-section through the new high-grade VMS level.

In addition to the drilling, the Company continues to integrate recent geological interpretation and geophysical data to refine drill targeting at Cachimbo. The confirmation of a high-grade VMS level in a second drill hole is expected to help prioritize follow-up drilling along trend and across the broader anomalous corridor.

Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest Mining Corp., commented: "TIR-26-62 represents an important follow-up result for the Cachimbo exploration program. The drilling provides additional geological information regarding polymetallic VMS mineralization identified at Cachimbo and contributes to our ongoing understanding of the mineralized system. The results will support continued geological interpretation and future drill targeting activities as the exploration program advances."

Precipitate Provides Update on Recent Dominican Republic Government Statement; Drilling Continues at Pueblo Grande Project

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 6, 2026) - Precipitate Gold Corp. (TSXV: PRG) (OTCQB: PREIF) (the "Company" or "Precipitate") provides an update following a recent statement by the Dominican Republic's President, Luis Abinader regarding specific exploration and development activities in the Dominican Republic.

On May 4, 2026, President Luis Abinader announced the temporary halt to activities related to GoldQuest Mining Corp's ("GoldQuest") Romero project in the Province of San Juan in response to public concerns. Importantly, the Romero project remains in the environmental evaluation stage, and no exploitation permit has been granted to date, consistent with the current regulatory process in the Dominican Republic. The Company notes that the President's statement was specific to the Romero project and does not extend to other mining or exploration projects operating within the country, including those controlled by Precipitate.

Precipitate maintains a 100% right to three projects in the Dominican Republic, two of which are located outside the Province of San Juan, all of which remain in good standing with existing exploration and drilling permits that are not impacted by the President's recent announcement.

At the Company's 100%-owned Pueblo Grande Project located in the Province of Sanchez Ramierz, diamond drilling continues at the Pueblo Grande Norte Zone, where the Company is testing a newly identified cluster of induced polarization ("IP") geophysical chargeability-high anomalies that were recently delineated through a comprehensive review of historical exploration data and follow-up IP geophysical surveying completed by Precipitate late last year (see the Company's new release dated March 25, 2026). To date, the Company has completed four diamond drill holes for a total of about 1,600 metres, with a fifth hole planned to bring the total number of metres to approximately 2,000. Initial assay results from the current program are pending and will be disclosed as they become available.

Jeffrey Wilson, President & CEO, stated, "We view the government's announcement as part of the necessary dialogue that accompanies responsible project development. The announcement is limited to a single project held by GoldQuest and does not include projects currently controlled by Precipitate. Our existing exploration and drilling permits remain in good standing, and we continue to advance our Pueblo Grande project through an ongoing diamond drilling campaign. With respect to our Juan de Herrera project, Precipitate will closely monitor the developments impacting Romero and remain sensitive to social and environmental concerns specific to that region as expressed by located stakeholders. Importantly, the Company maintains a strong financial position and maintains a disciplined focus on responsible exploration. Through ongoing engagement with communities and government officials Precipitate will determine the best approach advance its Juan de Herrera project. In the meantime, the ongoing drilling at Pueblo Grande is progressing well and assay results are expected in the coming weeks."

With approximately C$9.0 million in working capital, Precipitate is well positioned to continue executing its exploration strategy through the advancement of multiple high-priority targets throughout its project portfolio.

Precipitate remains focused on community relations, environmental stewardship, and transparent stakeholder engagement. The Company continues to prioritize proactive dialogue with local communities, government authorities, and other key stakeholders to ensure the continuation of responsible and sustainable exploration practices.

Additional information and updates related to the Company's ongoing activities in the Dominican Republic will be provided as further information is obtained.

About Precipitate Gold:
Precipitate Gold Corp. is a mineral exploration company focused on exploring and advancing its mineral property interests in the Dominican Republic, including its 100% owned Juan de Herrera project, its 100% owned Pueblo Grande project, and its 100% owned Ponton project. Precipitate is also actively evaluating additional property acquisitions with the potential to expand the Company's portfolio and increase shareholder value, in other favourable jurisdictions.

GoldQuest Reports Potential Depth Extension at Romero Gold-Copper Project, Dominican Republic

newsfilecorp.com

April 22, 2026 7:00 AM EDT | Source: GoldQuest Mining Corp.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 22, 2026) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) (OTCQX: GDQMF) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to report preliminary visual results from the ongoing exploration drilling program at the Romero deposit in the Dominican Republic.

Recent drill holes LTP-182 and LTP-183 have intersected zones of favorable alteration and mineralization consistent with the Romero deposit style, located outside the current mineral resource block model. These results support the potential extension of mineralization both at depth and along trend of the known mineralization.

Highlights:

Potential Continuity Beyond Current Resource Limits: Intersected mineralization beyond the current resource model boundaries.
Consistent Mineralization Style: High-grade mineralization indicators observed are consistent with the main Romero deposit.
Open System: The Romero mineralized system remains open at depth and laterally along strike.

Drill Results Summary:

Hole LTP-182: 75-metres step back from hole LTP-137, intersected zones of favourable alteration and mineralization from 220 m to 270 m, and again from 413.75 m to its current depth of 449.73 m (Figures 1, 2 and 3)
Hole LTP-183: 140 m step back from hole LTP-118. Located to the north-northeast of the main mineralized zone, this hole intersected favourable mineralization from 510 m to its current depth of 555.1 m (Figures 4 and 5).

Although both drill holes LTP-182 and LTP-183 are currently still in mineralization, the current drill rigs have reached their depth capacity. As such, drilling on both holes has been temporarily suspended. The Company is currently mobilizing a more capable replacement drill rig. The new rig is being installed at hole LTP-183 to advance it to its target depth, after which it will be moved to complete hole LTP-182. It is anticipated that drilling will resume by late April.

Geological Interpretation:

The intercepts are visually associated with pyrite-chalcopyrite-sphalerite mineralization, accompanied by moderate to high silica alteration. This mineral assemblage is consistent with the main Romero mineral deposit, supporting the interpretation that these intercepts represent a continuation of the same mineralizing system. Core from both holes is currently being logged, split, and prepared for shipment to the laboratory for assaying. Assays are expected to be received by early June.

The current drilling campaign at Romero is focused on:

Extending known mineralization beyond the existing resource envelope.
Improving the geological understanding of mineralization controls.
Evaluating the potential to increase the overall resource base.

Further drilling is planned to test the continuity, geometry, and grade distribution of these newly identified zones.

Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest Mining Corp., commented: "We are encouraged by the visual intercepts observed in drill holes LTP-182 and LTP-183. The mineralization appears visually consistent with the established Romero geological model and supports the continued evaluation of mineralization continuity at depth and along strike. While laboratory assay results are pending, these observations contribute to our ongoing understanding of the geological system."

It's nineteen years to the day since i bought my first shares of gqc, after looking at it some the year before, and then again when heinz44, may he in Frieden ruhen, became enthused about its prospects ... then less than two months later, sixth of June, the Las Ánimas results came out and i had close to a five-bagger right there ... i had read and in a way understood the part of the release that carefully stated how the exceptional intercepts were probably due to folding, but somehow believed that the market in its wisdom had the real scoop, or why else would they bid it up so nice and high so fast? ... lol

Thanks marcos, I had never seen the two companies' lanholdings displayed like this, very informative.

They have been doing some metallurgical testing, though from the way the info is presented I doubt we will hear about the results until the feasibility study on Romero is released. As usual, GQC remains vague about when that might be.

prg.v - Precipitate making a new high today on volume, they're drilling at Pueblo Grande and very soon at Juan de Herrera i think ... from the look of the tape, there's more RD buyers involved, and maybe some selling to others, can't be sure of course, Anon covers a lot of players

LC - saw your post on the juniors thread about names, agree that some of it is frustrating, not so much the name Tireo though, as it refers to the whole belt, over 30 miles running roughly NNW to SSE, several miles wide much of it ... the best map i've seen online is on the prg site, shows how it's split between the two companies ... combining the geography and the politics, it's easy to see why the two are linked, Jeff has been very cooperative with Goldquest, i expect they have a lot of shareholders in common besides myself

gqc.v - still waiting for results of the met work ... has any company ever got met work done and reported within the timeframe first estimated? ... can't recall that ever happening ... for sure it is a complex study, and has to be done right, or else ...

GoldQuest Reports New High-Grade Polymetallic Massive Sulphide Discovery at Cachimbo Target, Dominican Republic

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 23, 2026) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) (OTCQX: GDQMF) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results from the ongoing exploration campaign at the Cachimbo target. Drill hole TIR-26-58 has intersected a significant high-grade polymetallic zone, confirming a new mineralized parallel structure located to the northeast of the known Cachimbo mineralized zone.

The intercept returned high-grade values for gold, silver, copper and zinc, with a notable high-grade core of 3.59 metres grading 17.63 g/t AuEq. This discovery represents the first major drill success at Cachimbo following the resumption of drilling after a nine-year hiatus and identifies a new target for additional drill testing.

TIR-26-58: 12.26 m @ 2.52 g/t Au, 50.7 g/t Ag, 0.94% Cu & 12.0% Zn from 104.5 m depth.
High-Grade Core: Including 3.59 m @ 5.74 g/t Au, 128.88 g/t Ag, 2.18% Cu, and 27.6% Zn.
New Structure: The intercept confirms a new mineralized parallel structure, significantly expanding the potential footprint of the Cachimbo discovery.
Open at Depth: Mineralization remains open in multiple directions, with further drilling planned to test the continuity of this new zone.
Geophysics Program Underway: A Pole-Dipole Induced Polarization (PD-IP) survey is being executed to improve drill targeting.

Hole TIR-26-58 was positioned to test a structural offset identified through recent detailed structural re-interpretation. The mineralization is hosted within a sequence of lithic and mafic tuffs, characterized by massive to semi-massive sulfide assemblages.

The presence of high-grade copper (2.18% Cu) silver (128.88 g/t Ag) and zinc (27.61% Zn) within the core of this intercept confirms that the new parallel structure is a high-tenor polymetallic system. This second structure significantly expands the potential volume of the Cachimbo target, as it remains open along strike and down-dip. Table 1 below shows a detail of the intercepts and grades.

Table 1: Results from hole TIR-26-58

HoleID	From (m)	To (m)	Interval (m)	Au g/t	Cu %	Ag g/t	Pb %	Zn %	Au Eq g/t
TIR-26-58	64.65	76.91	12.26	2.52	0.94	50.72	0.26	12.0	7.62
Includes	73.32	76.91	3.59	5.74	2.18	128.88	0.65	27.61	17.63

*Interval grades are calculated using uncapped assays. Gold values did not exceed 21.9 g/t which is below the capping level for Romero of 72.2 g/t. Intervals may not represent true widths. There is insufficient drilling to determine the exact orientation of the mineralized zones at this time. AuEq was calculated by using metal prices of Au US$ 3,450/ounce, Cu US$ 5.1/pound, Ag US$ 37.4/ounce, Zn US$ 3,280/ton and Pb US$ 1,920/ton. No metal recoveries utilized.

Exploration at Cachimbo is ongoing. While the initial results for TIR-26-58 are encouraging, assays for the second half of the hole remain pending and are expected shortly.

Furthermore, drilling of holes TIR-26-57 and TIR-26-59, which targeted the down-dip extension of the primary Cachimbo zone, have been completed. Results from hole TIR-26-57 did not return significant intercepts, while results for hole TIR-26-59 are currently pending laboratory analysis. The rig has now transitioned to TIR-26-60, targeting deep extension of Cachimbo.

Figure 1 below shows a plan view with the current progress. We have now completed a total of 3 drillholes for 1,145 metres of the 5,000 metre-program. Figure 2 shows a NE trending cross-section, indicated as A-B in the previous map.

In addition to the drilling, a new PD-IP survey is now being carried out. Two lines are already completed, and results shows a good correlation between low and high chargeability contrast and mineralization, especially at the newfound VMS structure. We look forward to integrating this newly generated data to further refine our exploration of the Cachimbo target.

Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest Mining Corp., commented: "The discovery of a high-grade parallel structure at Cachimbo after nine years is a testament to our team's systematic approach to exploration in the Tireo Bel. These initial results from TIR-26-58 underscore the polymetallic potential of the district and suggest that Cachimbo is a much larger system than previously understood."

QA-QC

As part of the Company's Quality Assurance and Quality Control procedures (QA/QC) the Company reviews results from Certified Standard Reference materials (theStandards), which are inserted at a rate of five per 100 samples. Within the results disclosed herein there were no samples with results outside of the recommended tolerances for the Standards. In GoldQuest's drill programs, composite intervals were chosen using a combination of geological criteria and mineralization, averaging around two metres core length. The drill core is cut in half with one half of the core sample shipped to Bureau Veritas Labs by GoldQuest technicians. The remaining half of the core is kept at the Company core shack for future assay verification, or any other further investigation. Assays within intervals below the 0.005 g/t detection limit for Au were given a 0.0025 g/t value. All drill samples were prepared and screened by ACME Labs (Vancouver); metallic fire assay and multi-element ICP-MS were assayed by Bureau Veritas Laboratories (Vancouver). Gold values are determined by standard fire assay with an AA finish, or, if over 10.0 g/t Au, were re-assayed and completed with a gravimetric finish. Copper and zinc values exceeding 0.2% were re-assayed with a 4-acid digestion and AAS finish. When zinc values exceeded 10% a classic titration was carried out for zinc. QA/QC included the insertion and continual monitoring of numerous standards, blanks and duplicates into the sample stream, at random intervals within each batch.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 3, 2026) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) (OTCQX: GDQMF) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing 2025-2026 drilling and metallurgical testwork program at the 100%-owned Romero Gold-Copper Project in the Dominican Republic.

The Company has successfully completed the metallurgical drill program: 5 metallurgical drillholes totalling 1,906 metres; ~1,600 m of representative core selected from all holes for advanced locked-cycle and variability testwork at ALS Kamloops, with first results expected in March 2026 and the final report by late April/early May 2026.
Geotechnical and hydrogeological drilling advancing on schedule: 8 dedicated geotech holes (~2,700 m), of which 3 were completed and 3 are ongoing, and 10 hydrogeological holes (6 completed, 3 in progress) all to be finished by February 2026 to support Feasibility Study engineering design.
Drilling started in early January at the Cachimbo discovery target, with the first hole currently at 450 metres, with a planned target depth of 500 metres. This program aims to delineate a Mineral Resource and test additional targets along the Romero-Cachimbo corridor.
Geophysics Program Underway: A new ground geophysics program has commenced to further refine exploration targets. The program consists of Gradient Array Induced Polarization (IP) surveys and Pole-Dipole Induced Polarization (PD-IP) surveys.

Since beginning the program in September 2025, the Company has completed five metallurgical drill holes totaling 1,906 metres and three dedicated geotechnical holes totaling 1,270 metres (see Figure 1). This data will support the continued development of the underground mining design.

In parallel, three additional drill rigs continue with a geotechnical and hydrogeological drilling program at the planned plant, waste dump, tailings facility areas, and critical infrastructure (Figure 1). This campaign has been updated to eight dedicated geotechnical holes (approximately 2,700 metres in total) and ten hydrogeological holes (6 completed and 3 ongoing) and is on schedule for completion by February 2026. Data from these holes will support detailed engineering design for the Feasibility Study.

Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest Mining Corp., commented: "We are advancing efficiently on all fronts. With metallurgical samples now at the lab and the drill bit turning at Cachimbo, we remain on schedule to deliver our Feasibility Study milestones while simultaneously exploring the district's potential."

Additionally, a geophysics program is currently in progress. Commenced on January 27, a new ground geophysics plan aims to further delineate exploration targets and support drill planning along the aforementioned corridor. The scope of this program includes Gradient Array Induced Polarization (IP) surveys, which will be supplemented with Pole-Dipole Induced Polarization (PD-IP) surveys in zones where anomalies are identified. The plan consists of:

A first stage of Gradient Array Induced Polarization (IP) to complete the cover in the brownfield targets around the Romero deposit, and
A second stage targeting the Cachimbo trend, with the objective of improving the upcoming drill program at the greenfield targets Cañada La Vaca and Los Ganchos.

GoldQuest Provides Update on 2025 Drilling and Metallurgical Program at Romero Gold-Copper Project, Dominican Republic

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 3, 2025) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) (OTCQX: GDQMF) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing 2025 drilling and metallurgical testwork program at the 100%-owned Romero Gold-Copper Project in the Dominican Republic.

Completed 5 metallurgical drillholes totalling 1,906 metres; approximately 1,600 m of representative core selected from all holes for advanced locked-cycle and variability testwork at ALS Kamloops, with first results expected in March 2026 and final report anticipated by late April/early May 2026.
Geotechnical and hydrogeological drilling advancing on schedule: 5 dedicated geotech holes (approximately 1,600 m) plus 12 hydrogeological holes (2 completed, 2 in progress), all expected to be finished by February 2026 to support Feasibility Study engineering design.
One additional rig mobilizing in December and more in January to the high-priority Cachimbo discovery target to initiate resource delineation drilling and test additional early-stage targets along the Romero-Cachimbo mineralized corridor.
Once the geotechnical and hydrogeological drilling is completed, GoldQuest plans to transition these drills to Romero resource expansion drilling and to test proximal targets including the Romero Gap target.
Integration of new structural, geophysical and geological datasets into machine learning (AI) targeting software now underway following completion of district-scale structural review - expected to help refine and add additional quality exploration targets for 2026.

Since the program commenced in September 2025, the Company has successfully completed five metallurgical drill holes totalling 1,906 metres (Figure 1). These holes were specifically designed to provide fresh core from the already recognized Mineral Reserves area for advanced metallurgical testing and obtain detailed geotechnical information and samples in support of the ongoing Feasibility Study.

All the first five holes have visually confirmed high-grade mineralization at the core of the Romero deposit, showing multiple mineralization events, including massive sulphides, silicification, brecciation and other favorable alteration styles. Figure 2 shows different examples at different depths and locations of the orebody. In addition, assay results for these holes will be obtained as part of the metallurgical test work program currently underway.

Approximately 1,600 metres of representative core have been selected from all five holes. Sample distribution ensures full representativity of the mineralized body across the planned mining sequence and different lithological and alteration domains. The sampling protocol was based on the definition of geo-metallurgical units (GMUs) and the construction of variability and life-of-mine composites. Locked-cycle tests and variability testing on these composites is expected to provide detailed processing parameters throughout the life of the mine and enable accurate sizing of plant equipment.

The selected laboratory for this advanced testwork program is ALS Kamloops (Canada), one of the world's most respected metallurgical facilities.

First results from the locked-cycle and variability testwork are expected in March 2026, with the final metallurgical report anticipated by the end of April or early May 2026.

In parallel, three additional drill rigs continue with a geotechnical and hydrogeological drilling program at the planned plant, waste dump, tailings facility areas, and critical infrastructure (Figure 2). This campaign consists of five dedicated geotechnical holes (approximately 1,600 metres in total) and twelve hydrogeological holes (2 completed and 2 ongoing) and is on schedule for completion by February 2026. Data from these holes will support detailed engineering design for the Feasibility Study.

One additional rig is being mobilized to Cachimbo to start the exploration program during December, with the objective of delineating a Mineral Resource in this target, and drill test other early-stage targets along the mineralized belt defined between Romero and Cachimbo. One additional rig is expected to be deployed in this area by January 2026.

With the completion of an integral review of district and local structural geology, which improved the understanding of gold-copper mineralization controls, 3D structural modelling, reprocessing and reinterpreting historical geophysical datasets, we are now focused on integrating all the datasets generated into a machine learning (AI) software to assist with the targeting.

Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest Mining Corp., commented: "We are very pleased with the rapid and safe progress of our 2025 program. Completing the metallurgical drilling campaign on schedule and securing representative samples from across the deposit marks an important de-risking milestone for the Romero Project. We now look forward to commencing greenfield exploration drilling at the Cachimbo target, with the first rig scheduled to start in early December and a second rig expected to be mobilized by late January 2026."

Hi Marcos:

Thank you for this link on GQC.

After holding for so many years I'm not about to sell but have been reluctant to add.

Good luck with your vision, mine is no prize but not really bad for 70. I'm borderline glaucoma so exams every 6 months but no drops yet. My father had it but I attribute that to smoking.

Lutein is the main ingredient in Areds-2.

Best.

marcos — 11/11/2025 3:27:01 PM

Bought back a few gqc friday, filled on open at 1.50 ... the great pullback we're all sure is coming is at least delayed a week or so ... here's LSP's presentation in Zurich the other day, with a whole new confident demeanour -
gowebcasting.com

- also note how he says RD holders have thirty per cent now, far higher than the twenty they got from PPs, so it kinda confirms my guess about who comprised much of the recent heavy Anon buying ... and taking that a step further on pure speculation - it may mean that they're not intending to simply get bought out, but want to build and operate the mine ... or rather, mines plural, because it's the whole belt ...

'Areds 2' - never heard of it, i'll check it out ... ophthalmologist says macular degeneration will likely be in my future, but not the present or near term, what is now is glaucoma, fairly advanced but not severe, and IOP [intraocular pressure] was coming down nicely during years of various eyedrops ... until this year, when i had a harsh reaction to the combination of drops, quite harsh conjunctivitis, visually horrifying to other people, totally irritating in every way, extreme sensitivity to light which seems to persist in unpredictable waves after other symptoms have passed

One thing he did recommend in re MD was lutein ... also in re vision in general, 'lots of leafy green vegetables', said there were studies backing that up ... he's quite young, early thirties at most, exudes a calm competence, very bright lad

Hi LC and Marcos:

Not on topic but I started taking Areds 2 a couple of years ago as it has shown benefits in slowing down muscular degeneration.

LoneClone — 11/5/2025 5:42:00 PM

Tim Barry and compadre's main focus these days is in Kazakhstan, with Arras Minerals. I have done very well with that one.

I sumpauhize with the vision issues, as I am dealing with my own version thereof. I use a magnifying glass a lot these days and have had to give up driving.

Hang in there, old friend. You words are valued by many. Maybe write them on another app with a better background and then cut and paste?

marcos — 11/5/2025 1:04:58 PM

Did i jinx GoldQuest? ... posted happy rah-rah sentiment and then wham, hard down two sessions ... looks healthy enough though, can't just go straight up without pullbacks

svb.to - no i lost track of svb a long time ago, can't recall when even, or much detail about it ... three years maybe? .. i see on the latest release Tim Barry is still CEO, and the bloqueo, the main detail, is the same ... from the very start with Metalline i knew the smart thing to do was to go to Sierra Mojada as a tourist and get a general feel for the situation, but never did

If you get a chance to talk to people from San Luis Potosí, ask them what they think of canadian miners ... but first brace yourself for the reaction, which is caused by what happened to Cerro de San Pedro, a hill that got wiped completely off the map by New Gold and a string of predecessor outfits, and pretty much ruined a small town with hundreds of years of history ... a story very well known all over the country, doesn't do us any good

Most of my recent additions have been in BC, Quebec, one in Nevada, and now two because mai.v is there ... no new mexican buys, still holding ktn.v and probably others ... i'll post on your juniors thread when possible, it's a bit hard, been having vision problems, sites without dark theme are hard to take

[LoneClone] Nice to hear from you, maecos. I still haven't sold any of my GQC, perhaps next ...

LoneClone — 11/4/2025 5:50:25 PM

Nice to hear from you, maecos. I still haven't sold any of my GQC, perhaps next year after the PM correction.

Hey, have you been following the goings-on at SVB? They are close to an arbitration award against Mexico for what has happened at Sierra Mojada.

This was what showed up the turning point, when "prominent members" of local business take down 8.7 million worth of 19 cent shares. There were indications before, but nothing so sure, this was the clincher, hope people here noticed and took advantage

I've dribbled bits out, then a slice friday in the 1.80s, but still holding most ... Anon has been on a tear, quite chunky buying, not afraid to pay up, almost like there's some sort of plan, there's no way to tell how many players that is but it's clearly buyers of size taking shares from retail, in large part anyway

They're drilling now, some met holes and some stepout, but it's more than that ... this is no greenfield explorer, they've got a rich mine drilled off and ready, with highly prospective targets all over, we've known that for years ... what's different is the size and urgency of buying, looks like it's got legs yet ...

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 15, 2025) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the formal commencement of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment ("ESIA") for its 100%-owned Romero gold-copper project in the Dominican Republic.

In July 2025, GoldQuest conducted seven community meetings across the project area and related surrounding communities close to Romero, with approximately 400 local residents participating. These sessions provided a transparent and inclusive forum to share project information, listen to community concerns, and gather early input to inform the assessment process.

The ESIA work plan has been developed in alignment with the Terms of Reference (ToR) issued by the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (MIMARENA) of the Dominican Republic. To support future access to international financing and uphold best practices, the ESIA is also being designed to meet internationally recognized standards, including the IFC Performance Standards, the Equator Principles, and guidelines from the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM).

This robust approach contributes to the advancement of several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), SDG 13 (Climate Action), and SDG 15 (Life on Land).

"The launch of the ESIA marks a fundamental milestone for Romero," said Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest. "By aligning with both national and international frameworks, and by engaging meaningfully with our local communities from the outset, we are laying the groundwork for a transparent and sustainable development path."

Investor Relations Partnership

GoldQuest also announces that it has partnered with Adelaide Capital ("Adelaide"), a leading investor relations and capital markets advisory firm, to provide investor relations and consulting services to the Company.

Adelaide is a full-service investor relations firm that brings a unique and powerful perspective and a re-engineered investor relations business model. Adelaide will work closely with GoldQuest to develop and deploy a comprehensive capital markets program, which includes assisting with non-deal roadshows, virtual campaigns, social media, conferences and assisting with investor communication. In exchange for Adelaide's services, and pursuant to an investor relations consulting agreement (the "IRA"), the Company has agreed to pay a monthly fee of C$10,000 for a six-month term in addition to the grant of 50,000 stock options (the "Options") to Adelaide under the Company's omnibus incentive plan (the "Plan"). Subject to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") and the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Options will have an exercise price of C$0.72 and shall expire five years from the date of issuance and shall vest in four equal proportions every three months after the grant date for a period of 12 months. The IRA is subject to approval by the Exchange. Adelaide is principally owned by Deborah Honig and is an arm's length company based in Toronto, Ontario.

GoldQuest Announces Progress on 2025 Exploration Program in the Dominican Republic

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 24, 2025) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the first progress on its 2025 Exploration Program.

The Company continues to advance its dual-track strategy: the development of the Romero Project and a renewed focus on regional exploration within the Tireo Belt. Over the spring months, GoldQuest's Exploration team carried out an extensive program of trenching and channel sampling across Greenfield targets in the belt.

These efforts are aimed at narrowing down high-priority drill targets for a planned drill campaign of at least 5,000 metres, expected to commence in Q3 2025. This marks an important milestone for the Company, as it will be the first drilling since the 2018 campaign.

Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest Mining Corp., commented: "As we move forward with the Romero Project following the receipt of our Terms of Reference, we're equally focused on unlocking the broader potential of the Tireo Belt. Our Exploration team has been working diligently, and we're now beginning to see results that will guide our upcoming drill program. These efforts are key to creating long-term shareholder value while continuing to advance Romero."

GoldQuest has also contracted a specialist in structural geology to assist with the structural modelling of the projects and has a senior geophysicist reprocessing existing down-hole magnetic susceptibility data together with the raw data from the ground magnetic surveys. The GQC Exploration team has now implemented a modern, cloud-based database platform (MX Deposit) to organize the existing geological information, add new data and make it easily available for its analysis.

All this work is expected to culminate in a robust, integrated geological model to assist with targeting and drilling planned to start during Q3, 2025.

Target	Task	Completion	Comments
Romero	Structural Analysis	25%	Relogging and mapping to improve current understanding of the Romero Mineral Resource area to unlock its full potential.
Romero	Geophysics	15%	Completed an assessment on the downhole magnetic susceptibility data. Additional lines to improve ground magnetic resolutions are planned to start on Q3. A full 3D inversion model to be generated as final product.
Cachimbo	Geological Model	75%	Full relog completed, ongoing cross sections and longitudinal sections interpretations. 3D geological model expected by early Q3, allowing to improve geological concepts, mineralization and drill planning.
Greenfields	Mapping and Trenching	50%	62 trenches in 3 targets completed (Los Mineros, Cañada La Vaca, Los Gauchos). Results from first two batches confirms initial finding of gold mineralization at surface, opening potential for higher grades at depth.

At Cañada La Vaca and Los Ganchos, results highlight a NW trending corridor of +4 km with gold mineralization at surface (consistent values >1 g/t in rock chips and trenches), robust soil anomalies (Au+Ag+Cu) and IP chargeability anomalies. Adding in results from the Cachimbo area, this trend extends to a +7.5Km trend as shown on the Figure 1 map below.

GoldQuest is entering an exciting new phase of growth and development. After years of dedicated work in community engagement and constructive dialogue with government authorities, the company is now poised to advance the full potential of its highly prospective land package. With the recent receipt of the Terms of Reference for the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) of the Romero Project, GoldQuest is thrilled to move forward with the environmental studies at Romero and to resume exploration activities across the broader Tireo Belt, including the highly promising Cachimbo area.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 11, 2025) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received today from the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources of the Dominican Republic the official Terms of Reference ("ToR") for the Company's Romero gold-copper-silver project (the "Romero Project").

This marks a significant milestone, initiating the final phase of the Environmental Impact Assessment ("EIA") process required to obtain an environmental license for the future development of the proposed underground mine.

Luis Santana, CEO of GoldQuest, commented:

"Receiving the Terms of Reference is a pivotal step in the responsible development of our Romero Project. This document confirms the project's Category A classification under environmental law and allows us to formally launch a comprehensive environmental study. Its issuance is a clear recognition of the project's quality and the Dominican government's commitment to advancing Romero."

GoldQuest is also pleased to announce that AECOM, a globally recognized environmental consulting firm, has been selected to lead the EIA process for the Romero Project. AECOM's global experience and track record align with GoldQuest's commitment to exceed local environmental and social requirements by applying international best practices.

In addition to AECOM, GoldQuest will engage a multidisciplinary team of licensed Dominican environmental professionals to support the preparation of the EIA in accordance with the issued ToR.

Frank Balint, Chairman of GoldQuest, added:

"We believe Romero has the potential to become a model modern mining operation in the Dominican Republic, delivering substantial economic benefits to local communities and the country, while protecting the environment through best-in-class practices."

The Romero Project, located in San Juan Province, is a proposed underground mine designed to produce a copper concentrate containing gold and silver, using conventional processing methods. The project will incorporate state-of-the-art technology in both its mining and processing facilities to ensure operational efficiency, safety, and environmental performance. The Romero Project also includes an extensive infrastructure plan, encompassing the development of an access road, a processing plant, a filtered tailings storage facility, and a 69 kV power line connection to the national grid.

Unfortunately it seems I can't open an old spreadsheet anymore, so I will have to estimate that my first GQC purchases date back to around 2009.

GoldQuest Upsizes Private Placement to C$16.2 Million and Closes First Tranche

newsfilecorp.com

June 02, 2025 4:30 PM EDT | Source: GoldQuest Mining Corp.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 2, 2025) - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) ("GoldQuest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the closing of the first tranche (the "First Tranche") of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") of common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Common Shares"), originally announced on May 14, 2025.

In response to strong investor demand, the Private Placement has been increased to a maximum of 32,352,877 Common Shares at a price of C$0.50 per Common Share, for total gross proceeds of up to C$16,176,439.

Under the First Tranche, the Company issued a total of 21,450,877 Common Shares at a price of C$0.50 per Common Share, raising gross proceeds of C$10,725,438.50.

Approximately 82% of the funds raised in the First Tranche were contributed by investors based in the Dominican Republic, reflecting strong national support for the Company's projects and its commitment to local development. The entire Second Tranche will also be funded by Dominican capital.

Demand from Dominican investors was exceptionally strong, resulting in an oversubscription of the offering and requiring the Company to limit allocations and defer participation from a number of interested investors. This level of demand underscores the confidence and momentum behind GoldQuest's strategy and the Romero Project.

Insider participation in the First Tranche includes investments by three members of the Board of Directors, including the Company's CEO, demonstrating strong confidence in the Company's strategy, leadership, and the advancement of the Romero Project.

In connection with the First Tranche, the Company paid a cash finder's fee of approximately C$203,275 to Paola Cornielle, an arm's length party.

The Private Placement remains subject to final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V"). All Common Shares issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a four-month statutory hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.

Use of Proceeds

The net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to fund the following initiatives:

Completion of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) at Romero.
Finalization of the Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS) for the Romero Project.
Mineral Exploration at the Tireo Belt.
General Corporate Purposes.

Second Tranche

The Company has entered into a subscription agreement with Guess Investments Ltd. (the "Investor"), an existing shareholder and insider of the Company, for the purchase of the remaining 10,902,000 Common Shares under the Private Placement at a price of C$0.50 per Common Share, for additional gross proceeds of C$5,451,000 (the "Second Tranche").

Closing of the Second Tranche is subject to TSX-V approval, including the satisfactory completion of certain Personal Information Forms required to be submitted by the Investor.

Insider Participation and MI 61-101 Disclosure

Insiders of the Company acquired an aggregate of 1,242,000 Common Shares (C$621,000) under the First Tranche and are expected to acquire an additional 10,902,000 Common Shares (C$5,451,000) under the Second Tranche. Such insider participation constitutes a "related party transaction" as defined under TSX-V Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101").

The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities to be acquired by insiders, nor the consideration paid by them, exceeds 25% of the Company's Market Capitalization.
