VANCOUVER, BC, June 17, 2025 /CNW/ - GoldMining Inc. (the " Company" or " GoldMining") (TSX: GOLD) (NYSE American: GLDG) is pleased to report additional strong historic drill intercepts from its 100% owned Crucero Project (" Crucero" or the " Project") in Peru. These results are reported as part of the Company's previously announced ongoing review and validation of historic assay results, which has continued to show significant antimony (" Sb") mineralization, in conjunction with the known gold (" Au") mineralization, expanding the project's potential for multi-metal value creation.
Drill Intercept Highlights:
CPC 10-1: 2.03 g/t gold equivalent* ("AuEq") (1.58 g/t Au & 0.13% Sb) over 133.1 metres from 4 metres depth;
CPC 10-3: 2.25 g/t AuEq (1.54 g/t Au & 0.20% Sb) over 88 metres, from 72 metres depth;
DDH-07: 30.41 g/t AuEq (3.72 g/t Au & 7.58% Sb) over 2 metres, from 49 metres depth;
DDH-24: 2.54 g/t AuEq (1.44 g/t Au & 0.31% Sb) over 107 metres, from 108 metres depth;
DDH-27: 4.01 g/t AuEq (2.06 g/t Au & 0.55% Sb) over 56 metres, from 133 metres depth; and,
DDH-34: 6.25 g/t AuEq (1.88 g/t Au & 1.24% Sb) over 20 metres, from 385 metres depth.
*AuEq is calculated using the formula AuEq (g/t) = Au grade (g/t) + 3.52 * Sb grade (%). Au price of $2,200/oz and Sb price of $35,600/tonne (both approximately 35% below current spot price). Reports gold recovery at 100% and uses a notional antimony recovery of 70%.
"These results strengthen our confidence in Crucero's potential as a dual gold-antimony system," said Alastair Still, CEO of GoldMining. "With antimony price near record highs and gold mineralization already confirmed, we are working to uncover new value in a project that has been underexplored for critical metals potential. Antimony, primarily occurring as the mineral stibnite, co-exists with gold mineralization at the Project. We believe that thorough continued analysis of the historic gold and antimony results within the existing assay database there is an opportunity to enhance the economic value for the 100% owned Crucero Project."
Further to the Company's April 23, 2025, news release, which presented assay intercepts for historic drillholes DDH-01 to -04, the Company has continued to systematically compile Sb assay results within the Project drill database. This work has included the validation of historic assays against original independent laboratory certificates. Presented herein are assays for a further 20 drill holes that have been validated by the Company to date.
The updated and revised Crucero database now contains assay data for 79 drill holes as well as 657 trench assays including over 17,000 assay records, 13,296 of which have independent laboratory certificates available. The Company is working with the laboratories to locate additional archived assay certificates, in order to build a comprehensive database and undertake further analysis of the distribution and grade of antimony throughout the Project.
Crucero Project
The Crucero Project (see Figure 1) is located in the Andes mountain range in Carabaya Province, in southeastern Peru. The village of Caserio de Oscoroque is located approximately 10 km to the west of the Project by road, and the nearest major community is the city of Juliaca, about 150 km to the south-southwest, which has an airport that provides domestic flights that connect throughout Peru.
The Project contains orogenic gold mineralization that is associated with pyrite, pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite and stibnite mineralization. The mineralization is contained within altered meta-sedimentary rocks belonging to the Ananea Formation of Lower Paleozoic age.
Exploration programs from 1996 to 2012 by previous operators included geological mapping, soil and rock geochemistry, trenching, surface geophysical surveys, diamond drilling and metallurgical testwork. Drilling across the Project totals 79 core holes for 24,705 metres completed from 2003 to 2012.
To date, exploration of the Project has concentrated on the A1 Zone which dips vertically to steeply to the east, is approximately 750 metres along strike by 100 metres in width and is traced to a vertical depth of approximately 400 metres. The A1 Zone is hosted within meta-sediments (mudstones and siltstones) of the Ananea Group. Pyrite is the most abundant sulphide mineral and typically occurs as blebs, the distribution of which commonly appears to be along foliation or bedding. Quartz veins are uncommon and are not necessarily gold-bearing, although the highest-grade gold found to date is within quartz veins with stibnite.
Prior geological studies have interpreted that the A1 Zone has been subjected to two phases of gold mineralization of which the major gold-mineralizing event formed during isoclinal folding, is largely conformable with bedding and is associated primarily with pyrite and pyrrhotite. The second phase of gold mineralization is associated with later deformation characterized by brittle deformation that resulted in the development of faulting and remobilization of gold that is associated with arsenopyrite and antimony mineralization. This later phase of gold mineralization is volumetrically minor compared to the first phase; however, it is more significant because the higher gold and antimony grades occur with this later phase.

Notes:
Mineralized intercepts are estimated to be approximately two-thirds of true width.
*AuEq is calculated using the formula AuEq (g/t) = Au grade (g/t) + 3.52 * Sb grade (%), Uses – Au price of $2,200/oz and Sb price of $35,600/tonne (both approximately 35% below current spot). Reports gold recovery at 100% but uses a notional recovery of the Antimony of 70%.

Data Verification
The Technical Report and the Company's historic exploration database, including verification of laboratory certificates, were used to verify the reported assay intercepts. As detailed in the Technical Report, Crucero Project drill core sampling program comprised the following procedure: prior to processing, core was photographed and measured for core loss, then logged geologically and marked for sampling. Sample lengths downhole were generally 1.0 metres within visually mineralized core, to 2.0 metres outside mineralized zones, except where samples were taken to honor geological contacts. Samples were obtained by sawing the core in half; half was placed in a numbered sample bag and the other half stored in the core box for reference. Normal security measures were taken throughout the sampling and shipping processes. All drill programs used standards, duplicates and blanks that were introduced into the sample stream on the Property during the sample preparation process, and/or introduced by the independent laboratory during the analysis. The sampled half-core was then sent for assay to either ALS Peru S.A. ("ALS"), or SGS del Peru S.A.C. ("SGS"), each an independent assay laboratory.
SGS completed sample analysis in Lima, Peru, for drill holes DDH-19, DDH-20, DDH-32, DDH-33, DDH-34 (this release). Analysis utilized four standard SGS analytical procedures: 1) gold was analyzed by fire assay of a 50-gram aliquot with an atomic absorption finish (FAA515); 2) if the sample contained more than 500 ppb gold the sample was re-analyzed using fire assay and a gravimetric finish (FAG505); 3) samples were also analyzed for a 33-element package using four-acid digestion and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) with an atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) finish (ICP40B); and 4) if the sample contained more than 10,000 ppb arsenic or antimony, these elements were analyzed using atomic absorption (AAS41b).
ALS Global completed sample preparation and analysis in Lima, Peru, for drill holes CPC 10-1, CPC 10-2, CPC10-3, DDH-05, DDH-06, DDH-07, DDH-08, DDH-09, DDH-10, DDH-18, DDH-21, DDH-23, DDH-24, DDH-26, DDH-27, DDH-31, DDH-35 (this release). Analysis utilized four standard ALS analytical procedures: 1) gold analyses were completed by fire assay fusion with AAS finish (Au-AA24 method) on 50 grams test weight; 2) if the sample contained more than 10,000 ppb gold the sample was re-analyzed using fire assay and a gravimetric finish (Au-GRA21); 3) antimony and other multi element analyses (total suite of 35 elements) were assayed by aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS analysis (ME-ICP41 method) on 0.25 grams test weight; and 4) antimony which assayed at the upper level of detection of 10,000 ppm, was generally re-assayed to percent level analysis via atomic absorption spectrometry (Sb-AA08 method).
