VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 6, 2023 / Centenario Gold Corp. (TSXV:CTG), ("Centenario" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its Eden gold silver project located in Durango State Mexico following the completion of qualifying transaction and the start of trading on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") under the symbol CTG. The maiden drill program on the Eden property is expected to start in mid-November and should completed prior to Christmas.

Mapping, Sampling and Geophysics Program Completed on the El Eden Property

In late 2022, Centenario Gold completed a First Phase exploration program on the Eden property. During that time, Centenario collected 220 rock and 704 soil samples, completed semi-detailed mapping and IP/Resistivity geophysics over a 2.8 km portion of the 'Buenavista' mineralized corridor and across the core of the 'La Provedora' prospect further to the east. Rock assay results returned assays as high as 239.94 g/t Au and 1389.91 g/t Ag (see Table A below) (see Figure 1) and confirmed the continuity, and high-grade nature of the 'Buenavista' mineralized corridor (>15m), for more than 400 meters along the central, better exposed, segment of the vein system crossing the old mining area. Download the 43-101 technical report on the Company website.

The semi-detailed mapping and regional sampling program has confirmed the existence and continuity of the 'Buenavista' mineralized corridor more than 1.2 km to the North and 1.6 km to the South of the old mining area. (see Figure 2) The IP/Resistivity geophysical survey results show a continuous resistivity contrast, and 'pant-leg' type anomaly, following the trace of the Buenavista corridor for 2.8 km. Similar geophysical anomalies were observed over the core of the 'La Provedora' vein system further to the east. (see Figure 3)

History, Location and Mineral Concessions, El Eden Project:

The Eden Project is located approximately 30 km E-SE of Cosala, a historical old mining town which is approximately 150 km north of Mazatlán and 150 km southeast of Culiacan, the capital of the state of Sinaloa, Mexico. Roads to the town of Cosala are well maintained paved roads/highways. From Cosala, a dirt road running southeast accesses the southern part of the Eden property approximately 34 km away. (see Figure 4)

The Eden project consists of three adjoining mineral concessions totalling 5,689 hectares in size hosting a series of high-grade N to NE trending, epithermal Au-Ag vein systems. The property's northern border is adjacent to Americas Gold & Silver's Nuestra Señora producing mine while the Eden Property's southern border is adjacent to Prime Mining's Los Reyes property. Prime Mining has outlined a new resource on the Los Reyes property of, indicated 1.47 M AuEq and Inferred 0.73m AuEq. (Prime Mining Corp NI43-101 dated June 12. 2023) AuEq grade (gpt) = Gold grade (gpt) + Silver grade (gpt) x ($22 / $1700).

The Buenavista Mineralized System:

The initial surface and underground channel rock sampling program that was completed at Buenavista has returned very high-grade gold and silver results from the old mining area where the mineralized system is better exposed.

To date, three N10E to N20E trending mineralized vein systems and 1 ENE-WSW trending low-angle vein system have been recognised on the property: La Guadalupana, La Paloma-Buenavista, La Provedora and La Republicana. The Au and Ag mineralization found at Eden, like at Los Reyes, is hosted in andesitic and conglomerate rocks and occurs as a series of quartz rich vein-breccia-stockwork structures from 10m to 20m in width. The vein systems are composed of high-grade, narrow, quartz and Fe-oxides veins intercalated within a lower grade envelope consisting of intensely oxidized breccias and quartz stockworks.

At Eden, like at Los Reyes, an earlier, pre-mineralization, volcanic event consisting of intruding rhyolite-dacite dikes, sills and rhyolite domes, created the 'plumbing system' that later served as the conduit framework for the up-migrating mineralized fluids. Dacite and rhyolite dikes are frequently observed along the footwall of the vein structures. The mineralized structures extend for kilometers along strike and generally follow regional fault systems. Most of the vein-stockwork systems dip moderately to the E and NE.
