CALGARY, Canada (June 19, 2025)— TheNewswire - Pambili Natural Resources Corporation (“Pambili” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: PNN) is pleased to provide an update on the continued development of the crosscut at the East Adit on its Golden Valley A1 mining claim (“GVM”) in Zimbabwe, previously announced on May 29, 2025.
The cross-cut has now progressed some seven metres to the south and remains in mineralization. Non-compliant assays of recent sludge drilling samples have returned encouraging grades of 0.21 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold for the first metre, increasing to 2.65 g/t gold and 3.58 g/t gold for the second and third metres, respectively.

Sludge hole drilling is a low-cost, early-stage exploration technique that uses compressed air and water to rapidly drill shallow holes and recover rock chips for preliminary geological analysis. The sludge holes have been drilled in the direction of the drive, at a slight angle to enable the cuttings to be washed out of the hole and collected.
Given the combination of gold loss in the cracks in the sludge hole and the small sample size, these results cannot be considered to be representative. However, they are consistent with the assay results of the core from diamond drill hole EADD001. Those results indicated a target zone of some seven metres @ 2 g/t gold, including 2m @ 3.86 g/t gold (news release dated Jan. 14, 2025).
The expectation is that the target zone will be encountered within 10 metres of the sub-vertical shaft. Development and further sludge drilling will continue until the target is reached. As stated in the news release dated June 11, 2025, Pambili’s technical development team will conduct more representative systematic channel sampling across the zone of mineralization once the crosscut has passed through the mineralized zone into barren wall rock.
Jon Harris, Chief Executive Officer of Pambili Natural Resources, commented: “We now know the lithology of the cross-cut is consistent with that identified by the underground drilling program. That these assays appear to align with those of the core samples from Hole EADD001 is a positive indication that we are on target to confirming the presence of a commercially viable zone of mineralization.”
