American Marconi Wireless News - Metallurgical Program Appointment

Samples will be used for comprehensive metallurgical investigation at recognized laboratories. Testing will include baseline, optimization, and variability studies. The results will support process flowsheet development, derisking, and economic evaluation in accordance with the Best Practice Guidelines for Mineral Processing (BPGMP), contributing to the process component of the planned update to the NI 43‑101 Technical Report.

The recovery of both gold and copper will initially focus on well‑proven, low‑cost, low‑risk metallurgical options such as flotation and direct cyanidation. Depending on metallurgical response, the Company may also investigate other industry‑accepted routes, including bio-oxidation, pressure oxidation or roasting, diagnostic leach testing and other metallurgical optimization options if deemed necessary.

About Gold Port Corporation

Gold Port Resources Corporation (GPO) is focused on the further exploration and development of the 100% owned Groete Gold Project, located in Guyana, South America. The current focus of the Company is to enhance the NI 43-101 gold deposit defined at the Groete Project to a higher-grade lower tonnage resource. The Project was last explored in 2012, which included a drill program that allowed the calculation of an Inferred Mineral Resource of 1.57 million gold equivalent ounces (gold plus copper) within 74 million tonnes, at a grade of 0.66 grams per tonne gold equivalent. A cut-off grade of 0.25 gold equivalent grams per tonne, a gold price of US$1,275 per ounce and copper price of US$3.00 per pound was used in the calculation of the Inferred Mineral Resource. Details of the Mineral Resource are contained in a National Instrument 43-101 report titled, Technical Report and Updated Mineral Resource Estimate on the Groete Gold Copper Deposit, Groete Property, Guyana, South America by P&E Mining Consultants Inc., dated April 16, 2019, available on SEDAR and the Company website at www.goldportcorporation.com.

On Behalf of the Board of Directors of Gold Port Corporation,

Adrian F.C. Hobkirk President and Chief Executive Officer
