Sranan Gold Announces Preparations for Initial Drilling Campaign Are Underway Following Positive Engagement with Local Community in Suriname

Yahoo06-05-2025

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 6, 2025) - Sranan Gold Corp. (CSE: SRAN) (FSE: P84) ("Sranan" or the "Company") announces that work has commenced in preparation for the Company's upcoming initial drilling campaign at the Tapanahony Gold Project in Suriname.
Sranan geologists and crew are in the field to sample the active workings generated by local miners. This work will be extended along the 4.5 km Poeketi-Randy trend and then extensions of this trend.
Sranan has purchased two Hydracore 2000 drills which are expected to arrive in Suriname in late May with phase 1 drilling expected to commence in the second quarter of 2025, after field evaluation and camp construction. The Company's decision to acquire its own drills is a result of expanding gold potential based on re-evaluation of historical data and the Lidar data and Sranan interpretation, which suggests three parallel zones of mineralization. The Company is increasing its initial 1,500-meter drilling campaign to 10,000 meters. The acquisition of drills will assist in expediting the drill program and is also expected to significantly reduce drilling cost.
Johnston Exploration Consulting, a drilling team with extensive in-country experience and a proven record of drill performance, has been contracted to improve efficiency of the drill program.
Engagement with community leaders of the nearby Poeketi Village brings the community's skills, regional knowledge and manpower to aid in the Company's exploration efforts.
Dr. Dennis LaPoint, EVP Exploration and Corporate Development of Sranan Gold, commented: "Our team of local geologists is working with members of the local community and drawing upon their skills and knowledge. Knowledge of ongoing sampling and mapping in areas of active mining by local members of the community is invaluable and will contribute to our drill results."
Qualified Person
Dr. Dennis J. LaPoint, Ph.D., P.Geo. a "qualified person" as defined under National Instrument 43‐101, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this release. Dr. LaPoint is not independent of Sranan Gold, as he is the Company's EVP Exploration and Corporate Development.

SonicStrategy Expands Sonic Holdings to 6M Tokens and Launches Institutional Validator

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / June 12, 2025 / Spetz Inc. (dba SonicStrategy) (CSE:SPTZ)(OTC:DBKSF) is pleased to report continued progress in its digital asset accumulation and infrastructure rollout strategy. During the past week, the Company acquired an additional ∼2.0 million S tokens (the native token of the Sonic ecosystem), bringing its total Sonic holdings to just over 6 million tokens. These tokens were purchased on the open market, reinforcing the Company's strong conviction in Sonic as one of the most compelling Layer 1 ecosystems in blockchain today. In parallel, the Company has also purchased 3.7 BTC to be held as part of the long term corporate treasury strategy. The approximate total cost of these acquisitions was $1.5 million CAD. 'We continue to see compelling long-term value in Sonic and are building a strategic position to match that conviction,' said Mitchell Demeter, CEO and Director of Spetz. 'Accumulating over 6 million tokens at this early stage gives us a powerful foundation as the network scales. We are fully focused on building SonicStrategy into a leading institutional platform for validator operations, token accumulation, and DeFi participation.' SonicStrategy is also pleased to announce the official launch of its first institutional-grade validator on the Sonic blockchain. The validator is now publicly listed as Validator #45 - 'SonicStrategy | CSE: SPTZ | OTC: DBKSF' and can be viewed here. Validators are essential infrastructure on proof-of-stake blockchains like Sonic. They help process transactions, secure the network, and maintain consensus by verifying new blocks of data. In return, validators earn yield (rewards), making them a foundational piece of blockchain scalability and integrity. 'Launching our validator infrastructure is a significant milestone,' added Demeter. 'Not only does it generate stable yield on our own assets, but it also opens the door to scalable recurring revenue as we onboard other Sonic token holders to our validator.' The Company has staked a portion of its own tokens to the validator and is currently earning a 4.62% yield on this staked capital. In addition, SonicStrategy will be collaborating with other large ecosystem partners to grow the total delegation base to its validator, where the Company will earn 15% of the yield generated by third-party delegations. The Company also plans to begin deploying capital into DeFi strategies within the Sonic ecosystem in the coming days, which is expected to increase the blended yield across its digital asset portfolio to approximately 20%. The Company is working toward closing the second tranche of its $10 million financing, targeting a close date of June 18, 2025. The round is being conducted at a price of $0.50 per unit, with each unit consisting of one common share and one-half of a common share purchase warrant exercisable at $0.75. About Spetz Inc. (dba SonicStrategy) Spetz Inc. (dba SonicStrategy) (CSE:SPTZ)(OTC PINK:DBKSF) is the parent company of SonicStrategy Inc., a public-market gateway to the Sonic blockchain ecosystem. Spetz provides investors with compliant exposure to staking infrastructure and DeFi strategies across the Sonic network.

In April 2025, the Company submitted a proposal to the Department of Natural Resources and Energy Development Junior Mining Assistance Program (NBJMAP) for specific exploration on the California Lake East VMS Project, where previous drilling in 2022 confirmed the presence of a VMS system associated with Mineral occurrence 32S, on the north end of EarthEx Target #8 (Figure 1 below). This season's exploration is planned along the stratigraphic horizon and EM strong late time conductors, delineated by EarthEx, that defines the California Lake East VMS Trend (Target #6 and #8). Planned work will start with ground-based geophysics to define the prioritized drill targets to follow. Target #6 below, has been previously identified as a High Priority New Target and possibly the source to the previously announced successful VMS drill program at Target #8.
