Precipitate Trenching Expands Centro Zone with 4.4% Copper over 1.8 metres at the Juan de Herrera Project, Dominican Republic
I'm LongbridgeAI, I can summarize articles.Precipitate Gold Corp. announced positive results from its Juan de Herrera Project in the Dominican Republic, highlighting trench sampling at the newly identified Centro Zone, which yielded 4.4% copper and 0.3 g/t gold over 1.8 metres. The ongoing exploration continues to define mineralized zones, with additional sampling revealing broader intervals of copper and gold. CEO Jeffrey Wilson emphasized the potential of the Centro and nearby Southeast Zones as strong drill targets for copper and gold mineralization. The project covers approximately 12,706 hectares and remains largely underexplored.

Vancouver, B.C. – TheNewswire - April 22, 2025 – Precipitate Gold Corp. (the “Company” or “Precipitate”) (TSXV: PRG, OTCQB:PREIF) is pleased to announce follow up surface rock and hand trenchsampling results from the newly identified Centro Zone within its 100%owned Juan de Herrera Project(“Juan de Herrera” and the“Project”) in theDominican Republic.
The Company’s ongoing Juan de Herrera project exploration continuesto yield positive results. At the recently identified Centro Zonefollow up surface sampling has further defined the mineralized zoneand reported a highlight trench result of 4.4% copper and 0.3 g/t gold over 1.8metres (“m”), within a longer interval of 1.6% copper and 0.2 g/tgold over 5.3 metres (see accompanying Figure 1). Continued follow up exploration,including surface sampling programs at Centro and other prioritygold-copper rich zones is ongoing. Highlight results from the latestwork at the Centro Zone are as follows:
Centro Zone, Highlights
Trench sampling yields 4.4% copper and 0.3 g/t gold over 1.8metres, within broader intervals of 1.6% copper and 0.2 g/t gold over5.3 metres and 0.4% copper and0.2 g/t gold over 26.3 metres.
To date, a total of 113 rock grab samples*
collected report results ranging
from nil to 2.0% copper and
nil to 2.6 g/t goldfrom andesite volcanic
lithologies which show variable silicification and pyrite-chalcopyrite
mineralization.
Cluster of three gold-in-soil anomalies, collectively
covering a trend of about 1.2
kilometres long by approximately 100m wide; open
to the northwest. Coincident with strong resistivity high anomalies
(mapping silica alteration?) and modest IP chargeability high
anomalies.
Jeffrey Wilson, Precipitate’s President and CEO
stated, “Our programs of ground truthing and follow up
surface sampling within and around Juan de Herrera’s numerous
geochemical and geophysical anomalies continues to pay dividends. The
recently identified Centro Zone is quickly evolving into a priority
area that in combination with the nearby Southeast Zone are two strong
potential drill targets for copper with gold mineralization. Field
crews are diligently following up on the new compelling sampling
results at the Centro and other priority zones throughout the
Project. We look forward to additional positive results
as our work continues.”
The newly delineated Centro Zone is located
approximately 425 metres east of the Southeast Zone where previously
reported sampling reported rock grab samples* up to 13.0% copper and 0.9 g/t gold and rock
trench sampling yielded 2.8% copper over 3.0m within 8.0m of 1.3%
copper.

Rock and soil samples were bagged, sealed and delivereddirectly to Bureau Veritas (“BV”) preparation facility in MaimonDominican Republic where they were dried, crushed (or sieved in thecase of soils; preparation code SS80) and pulped. Sample pulps werethen delivered to BV facilities in Vancouver British Columbia Canadafor analyses (an ISO 9001 accredited facility). Rock samples werecrushed to with more than 70% passing 2mm mesh and split using ariffle splitter (code PRP70-250). An approximately 250-gram sub-samplesplit was pulverized to minus 200 mesh (74μm). A 15-gram sub-splitfrom the resulting pulp was then subjected to aqua regia digestion andmulti-element ICP-ES/MS analysis (code AQ201); samples with resultswith gold greater than 2 g/t were subjected to a gold (and selectivesilver) fire assay analysis and a gravimetric finish (30 g pulp;ICP-ES finish; code FA530-Au, Ag) and samples with results with coppergreater than 5,000 ppm were subjected to 0.5 gram pulp 4-aciddigestion and a selective ICP-MS analyses (code MA404). All coarserejects and pulps are currently stored at BV.
About the Juan de Herrera
Project:
The Juan de Herrera Project is owned 100% by
Precipitate Gold Corp. and comprised of approximately 12,706 hectares
located immediately adjacent to GoldQuest Mining’s Romero
gold-copper project within the Upper Cretaceous aged package of
volcanic and sedimentary Tireo Gold Formation in San Juan Province of
Dominican Republic. The project hosts intermediate sulphidation
epithermal and VMS style exploration targets. Work to date, including
extensive project wide geochemical and geophysical surveying and
limited diamond drilling, has delineated and outlined multiple
anomalous zones of gold and/or copper mineralization warranting
additional exploration and drilling.
Approximately 5.0 million gold equivalent ounces have
been discovered and advanced in the Tireo Formation belt in the last
decade, while vast areas of similarly prospective and proximal
terrain, such as that situated within Precipitate’s Juan de Herrera
project, remain largely underexplored.
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
located immediately adjacent to GoldQuest Mining’s Romero Project,
its 100% owned Pueblo Grande project located immediately adjacent to
the Pueblo Viejo mine operated by Barrick, and its 100% owned Ponton
project located 30km east of the Pueblo Viejo mine. Precipitate is
also actively evaluating additional high-impact property acquisitions
with the potential to expand the Company's portfolio and increase
shareholder value, in other favourable jurisdictions.
