Latin Metals Uncovers Promising Geophysical Anomalies at Cerro Bayo

Latin Metals Inc. (TSXV: LMS) (OTCQB: LMSQF) has identified significant geophysical anomalies at its Cerro bayo project in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. The company has acquired historical exploration data, including a 130-line-km gradient array Induced Polarization (IP) survey, which revealed pronounced chargeability and resistivity anomalies. These anomalies are spatially associated with historical drill targets identified by Barrick and correlate well with previously mapped mineralized structures. Notably, the anomalous geophysical trends are open to the northwest, suggesting further potential for exploration and development.



The survey highlights include:

* Strong correlation between chargeability anomalies and previously mapped mineralized structures
* Anomalous geophysical trends open to the northwest
* Alignment of Eugenia and Gabriela target areas with highest-intensity geophysical anomalies
* Discovery of new exploration targets, including Julia/Elena and Lara zones

Cerro Bayo is situated within the highly prospective Deseado Massif, a prolific mining region known for its world-class gold and silver deposits. The area has a strong history of mining activity and hosts several producing and past-producing mines, underscoring its significant exploration potential. The mineralization at Cerro Bayo is consistent with epithermal gold-silver systems, which have yielded high-grade deposits across the region. Latin Metals' exploration efforts at the project benefit from an extensive historical dataset compiled by previous operators, including barrick gold, providing a strong foundation for ongoing and future work.

Argentina's mining sector continues to attract growing foreign investment, driven by its rich mineral endowment and an evolving regulatory framework. The Santa Cruz province, in particular, plays a key role in the country's gold and silver production. Latin Metals' Cerro Bayo and La Flora projects align with this broader industry trend, reflecting the company's commitment to systematic exploration and value generation through strategic partnerships.

Latin Metals' recent exploration work at Cerro Bayo builds on Barrick’s historical data. In late 2024, the Company expanded mapping efforts at Cerro Bayo and initiated exploration at La Flora for the first time. This work has standardized lithological interpretations across both areas, reinforcing the potential for further discoveries.



In conclusion, Latin Metals' identification of significant geophysical anomalies at Cerro Bayo, combined with the project's regional significance and the potential for high-grade mineralization, suggests that the project could have substantial economic value. The alignment of the Eugenia and Gabriela target areas with the highest-intensity geophysical anomalies indicates that these areas are likely to host high-grade mineralization, which could lead to significant economic value for the project. As Latin Metals continues to explore and develop the Cerro Bayo project, investors should monitor the company's progress and consider the potential for significant returns on investment.
