(TSXV: LGC) (OTCQX: LGCFF) ("Lavras Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to release the results from 18 new drill holes testing the Butiá Gold Deposit ("Butiá" or "Butiá Gold Deposit") located at the western edge of the LDS Project in southern Brazil Gold mineralization was intersected in all 18 holes reported in this news release at Butiá which hosts a Mineral Resource Estimate of 377,000 ounces of gold in the Measured and Indicated categories and 115,000 ounces of gold in the Inferred category Several of these 18 new holes returned more than 100 metres of continuous gold mineralization characterized by higher-grade subintervals Several holes were designed to increase the confidence in the Butiá gold resource (converting the Inferred Resource into the Measured & Indicated categories) and others to potentially increase the gold endowment as explained below The Company has engaged SGS Laboratory in Belo Horizonte Brazil to complete a comprehensive metallurgical test program for Butiá mineralization with testwork currently underway These new drill results and initiatives continue to move Lavras Gold toward its short-term corporate goal of defining an economically feasible gold resource on the LDS Project focused on the Butiá Gold Deposit and the adjacent Fazenda do Posto gold target "In addition to making new discoveries in this highly prospective gold district our short-term goal remains the delineation of an economically feasible gold mine on the LDS Project The results from this new round of drilling are critical to our understanding of the Butiá Gold Deposit and the northeast/southwest trending structures that play a significant role in the pattern and nature of mineralization at Butiá and the 'mineability' of the deposit," commented Lavras Gold President & CEO Michael Durose "The new drilling results continue to demonstrate the excellent near-surface gold grade and continuity of the Butiá Gold Deposit Long continuous intervals of gold mineralization over more than 100 metres typically with higher-grade subintervals and beginning at or near surface confirm the bulk-tonnage nature of Butiá This drilling has also significantly increased our depth of understanding of the geological controls to mineralization Part of the on-going drilling program at Butiá is testing the potential for extensions to mineralization based on our increasingly more detailed and evolving geological model We have also initiated a detailed metallurgical testing program for Butiá as part of the overall derisking strategy for the project "An update of drilling results for Fazenda do Posto target is expected as soon as final assay results are received and the geological interpretation is completed Drilling is on-going in this area as well as to the north on the Caneleira Concession [* Footnote: Butiá hosts an Estimated Mineral Resource of 377,000 ounces of gold in the Measured and Indicated categories and 115,000 ounces of gold in the Inferred category as detailed in the technical report (the "Butiá Technical Report") titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report Mineral Resource for the Butiá Gold Prospect Rio Grande do Sul 2022 and prepared for the Corporation by VMG Consultoria e Soluções Ltda as the qualified person responsible for the entire Butiá Technical Report Discussion of Drill Results - Butiá Deposit results from 33 Lavras Gold drill holes totaling 9,346 metres of drilling have been disclosed based on the 2023 and 2024 drilling program This total includes the 18 holes disclosed in this news release (24BT024 to 24BT041) More than 30,000 metres of drilling have been completed at Butiá to date including historical drilling prior to 2023 Figure 1 is a general location map for the LDS Project deposits and targets Details of the locations of the new drill holes can be found in the plan view in Figure 2 A long section looking northeast is shown in Figure 3 Table 1 details all assay results including newly disclosed results in this press release Table 2 tabulates drill hole information including collar coordinates A primary purpose of the recent drilling was to test the lateral continuity of gold mineralization across a postulated northeast trending structural corridor Many of the holes were drilled with an azimuth oriented 110 degrees and/or 290 degrees As shown in Figure 2 and summarized in Table 1 These holes confirm continuous gold mineralization across a northeast trending structure Gold grades generally increase towards the northwest where sulphide-bearing episyenite is found moderate grade gold is found in the southeast in areas typically associated with mineralized perthitic granite Drill holes 24BT034 and 24BT036 confirm good continuous higher grade gold mineralization between vertical holes 23BT016, 23BT019, 24BT023, and 23BT024 that were drilled across a northwest trend and defining continuous gold mineralization from surface to depths of more than 200 metres (see press release June 2024) Detailed gold assay results by drill hole are summarized in Table 1 The 18 new holes disclosed in this press release are from 24BT024 to 24BT041 Some highlights of the recent drilling results include: Drill hole 24BT034 was collared 110 metres northwest of drillhole 23BT019 in the north-central portion of the Butiá gold deposit (see Figure 2) The hole was drilled on an azimuth of 110 degrees and inclined 60 degrees The hole was designed to test the lateral continuity of higher-grade mineralization encountered in vertical hole 23BT019 that returned 236.0 metres grading 1.40 g/t gold from surface (see Figure 3) A long interval of continuous bulk-tonnage disseminated gold mineralization was encountered from 69.0 meters to a depth of 192.0 metres within mineralized episyenite with minor subintervals of perthitic granite as detailed below Drill hole 24BT034 confirms continuous gold mineralization across an interpreted northeast trending structure a 21.0 metre subinterval of high-grade gold grading 4.1 g/t gold was encountered in sulphide-bearing episyenite Several local high-grade intervals of gold ranging from 5.3 g/t gold to 7.1 g/t gold were also found Drill hole 24BT036 was collared 140 metres northwest of drillhole 23BT016 and 23BT018 in the central-west portion of the Butiá gold deposit and drilled on an azimuth of 110 degrees and inclined 60 degrees (see Figure 2 & Figure 3) The purpose of this hole was to better understand the nature grade and continuity of gold mineralization in this portion of the deposit across an interpreted northeast trending structure Continuous gold mineralization was encountered over long intervals in episyenite and mineralized perthitic granite Higher-grade subintervals have been observed typically within zones of episyenite hosting pyrite and arsenian pyrite Cross-cutting chlorite quartz-carbonate sulphide veins with visible gold have also been observed (Figure 4) A summary of assay composites is as follows: Hole 24BT036 provides a good indication of long continuous gold mineralization laterally to depths of more than 200 metres and laterally across a northwest-southeast direction Drillhole 24BT040 was collared 70 metres southeast of drill hole 24BT036 in the central portion of Butiá The hole was drilled on an azimuth of 110 degrees and inclined 60 degrees (see Figure 2 & Figure 3) Continuous gold mineralization was encountered from surface in mineralized episyenite and perthitic granite as highlighted below: Drill hole 24BT026 was positioned in the east-central portion of the Butiá gold deposit 140 metres east of vertical drill hole 23BT019 Drill hole 23BT026 was drilled vertically (see Figure 2 & Figure 3) The purpose was to better grasp the nature of the geology and extent of gold mineralization vertically in this portion of the deposit Multiple long intervals of gold mineralization consisting mainly of disseminated pyrite +- arsenian pyrite within episyenite and perthitic granite occurred from 119.0 metres to a depth of 491.0 metres Numerous mineralized intervals were encountered Hole 24BT026 was successful in demonstrating the depth potential of mineralization at Butiá Drill hole 24BT037 was collared 70 metres southwest of drill hole 24BT040 and drilled on an azimuth of 110 degrees and inclined 60 degrees (see Figure 2 and Figure 3) The purpose was to test the southwestern extension of the deposit Multiple closely spaced zones of gold mineralization were encountered throughout the hole beginning from 32.0 metres to 331.0 metres Drill hole 24BT038 was positioned along the southeastern edge of the Butiá gold deposit and drilled along an azimuth of 110 degrees at an inclined angle of 60 degrees The hole encountered 55.0 metres of continuous gold mineralization grading 0.6 g/t gold from 100.0 metres including several higher-grade subintervals including: Hole 24BT038 was successful in extending the Butiá mineralized footprint to the southeast Drill hole 24BT041 was collared in the southeast part of Butiá and drilled along an azimuth of 290 degrees at an inclined angle of 60 degrees The hole encountered moderate disseminated gold near the top of the hole and better grades at depth Gold mineralization is hosted within perthitic granite and episyenite Please refer to Table 1 for a complete list of all drill holes and detailed assay

os butiá do bolso” (My butiás fell out of my pocket) at least once in their lives This popular saying is used in Rio Grande do Sul in situations where people feel surprised or indignant butiá is a fruit widely used in homemade cachaça production and almost all nine species of palm trees are endangered Most people don’t have the habit of consuming butiá and do not understand why the fruit is so important to the point of being in such a well-known regional saying butiá is more than just a fruit; it can be part of family history or even a subject of study with great potential Joseane dos Santos is part of the Chácara da Cruz quilombo in Tapes Although Joseane does not live in the quilombo her family has a strong connection to the place The history of this quilombo is linked to a craft culture that uses the butiá leaves one of the main sources of income for its members used to be the production of ropes and car seat upholstery made of butiá leaves The men of the quilombo collected the raw material for the women to produce the crafts and sell them at the city port Joseane states that “butiá used to mean the world” because the community was illiterate and the palm tree helped everyone survive: it was through the income from this craft that they were able to save money and buy the land that belongs to the quilombo the production of these crafts no longer exists The area where the butiá orchards are located has been occupied by the new owner and Tapes has undergone major economic changes with the region now focusing on rice and soybean production Joseane reports that many people who used to produce items from the butiá leaves are no longer alive or do not talk about it; there is an unhealed wound regarding the land The use of butiá in the quilombo is limited to internal consumption with some recipes and preserves but the fruit is part of the local history and its members Crafting with butiá straw has also been a income and barter for many women in the Torres region the craft was declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Rio Grande do Sul The safeguarding process was initiated by the non-governmental organization Instituto Curicaca in the 2000s; the registration process for patrimonialization began in 2015 states that this craft is now being brought out of the invisibility to which it had been relegated in recent years The survey on the craft production was conducted through interviews with women whose livelihood depended on butiá braids Many of them used the income from these crafts to buy school supplies for their children This process was in the course of being lost – younger generations are not interested in learning; butiá trees are becoming extinct and market interest in the product consumption has changed there has been a resurgence of this knowledge that was undeniably important for several generations Patrícia adds that “its intangibility is precisely what touches our hearts and provokes a desire for continued transmission.” The registration of the craft was not the only work of Instituto Curicaca in the northern coastal region of Rio Grande do Sul The Institute operates between Torres and Osório although activities are concentrated in Torres where there have always been more sociocultural interactions with the fruit These interactions were noted in reports about the importance that butiá once had for the region Professor Gabriela Coelho from the Graduate Program in Rural Development (PGDR) at UFRGS explains that there is a relationship between biological diversity and cultural diversity The first consists of the various species that exist in different environments while the second involves groups that relate more closely to biodiversity—indigenous peoples quebradeiras de coco [coconut shell breakers] This intrinsic relationship is socio-biodiversity “These species also have a very significant cultural meaning and many of these groups are responsible for the distribution of these species throughout the national territory,” says Gabriela technical coordinator of Instituto Curicaca reports the monitoring of the remaining butiás of the Butia catarinensis type in the northern coastal region of Rio Grande do Sul through visits to the sites and satellite observation If between 2008 and 2010 there were about 120 hectares of butiá orchards last year almost 15% of this population was lost the Institute started a project to restore this ecosystem aiming to preserve the existing species and plant new ones Replanting the butiá orchards is not a simple task and most of the remaining individuals are centuries old Butiá takes up to three years to germinate butiás need a certain temperature elevation over a definite period to start developing and climate changes hinder the plant’s germination the seeds need to break through two barriers: the seed itself and the small fruit where it is located Instituto Curicaca’s initiative is partnered with Farm and the Seed Laboratory of the State Department of Agriculture To obtain the seedlings that will be planted the institute brings the seeds to the laboratory which performs a process to break the dormancy period The seeds that germinate remain in a research station for one or two years until they are ready to be planted in the field Some of these seedlings will go to conservation areas while others will be allocated to private properties it will be possible to use the fruits and leaves and one of the goals is for people to return to using everything that butiá can offer in an appropriate way Instituto Curicaca also operated in the Quaraí region in the western border of the state Alexandre explains that the loss of butiás in Torres is more related to urbanization the butiás in the region have also faced cattle feeding on and stepping over the seedlings biodiversity islands have been implemented keeping the cattle away f-or some time until the species may recover and become stronger Gabriela comments that there are different ways of preservation which permanently isolates areas and prevents significant circulation of people; in such cases Another perspective is conservation through use which understands that the more involved people get and the deeper bonds they create with a particular ecosystem the more they will collaborate for its preservation there are two paths: one is exhaustion – understanding how much can be extracted without harming the species; the other is expertise – recognizing that some peoples know how to interact without harming these species an experience which encourages these populations’ contact with nature The Route to the Butiá’s orchards /Red Palmar is a network of people interested in preserving orchard ecosystems through use there are people part of the Route in Brazil This network connects different groups—public leaflets and other advertising materials have been produced and distributed along with the rescue of threatened butiá trees One of the productions of the Route to the Butiá’s orchards is the book Butiá para todos os gostos (Butiá for All Tastes) It is available for free access on the Route’s website Exploring the potential of endangered fruits and promoting knowledge about their nutritional properties was also the goal of the Biodiversity for Food and Nutrition (BFN) project carried out in partnership with several institutions worldwide coordinator of the project in southern Brazil and professor of the Graduate Program in Food says that BFN was responsible for conducting the nutritional analysis and creating recipes with butiá and 15 other native fruits At the Institute of Food Science and Technology (ICTA) at UFRGS the chemical composition and macro and micronutrients of the selected fruits were analyzed Studies found that butiá is rich in vitamin C and carotenoids These carotenoids have antioxidant functions in the body and their subfractions help with vision and reduce the risk of cancer and cardiovascular diseases the nutrients are at their best “performance,” and thus preference should be given to its consumption The complete nutritional information of butiá can be found on the SiBBr platform was involved in the creation of recipes for BFN in partnership with the UFRGS Nutrition course She recalls that several dishes were produced which were tasted and evaluated by students and professors “Some [recipes] were unanimously considered good and others were unanimously considered not good.” Some of the recipes involving butiá were created in a recipe contest in Giruá Among the project’s results are recipes for sweet rice and subtropical pizza—all prepared with butiá Bringing to market a beverage produced with native fruits and having a positive socio-environmental impact is the goal of Gasosa Biodiversa The idea of Augusto Antunes André and Nilton Tavares took shape during an outreach program in Entrepreneurship for Socio-biodiversity promoted by the Reference Circle in Agroecology The product is currently being incubated by the Technological and Entrepreneurial Food and Agro-industrial Incubator (ITACA) at ICTA/UFRGS awaiting resolution of bureaucratic issues Augusto and Nilton emphasize the focus on organic and local community biodiversity “There is no future without sustainable agriculture,” says Augusto While she was a post-doctoral researcher and collaborating professor at PGDR Tatiana Miranda researched topics related to ethnoecology and conservation through use She decided to move from theory to practice by venturing into the gastronomy field: in 2019 she began to conceptualize Cozinha Erva Doce which she managed alongside her university routine She now sells a pie with butiá jelly and homemade butiá cake One of her goals is to allow people to discover the fruits and realize that it is feasible to use them in everyday life Tatiana uses products from farmers aligned with her former research line such as the Solidary Native Fruits Productive Chain Working with the appreciation of local community biodiversity agribusiness—responsible for processing the fruits— and technical and advisory assistance agents Alvir Longhi explains that most producers are small farmers concerned with environmental conservation contributing to the Chain in different scales Some fruits are extracted from agroforests while others were previously unused on properties and the owners decided to give them a new purpose Alvir notes the noticeable impact on the income generation of farmers: some have nearly 30% of their income from this production one farmer was able to save enough money from selling unused fruits on her property to buy a new refrigerator and the farmers of the Solidary Chain demonstrate how butiá goes beyond a popular saying It is no longer “falling out of pockets”; what falls are the palm trees that sustain them which continue to be endangered by urbanization and unsustainable agribusinesses which was once the primary currency of exchange for many families but various initiatives are reapplying its uses with a much more respectful and preservationist approach Translated into English by Gustavo Flores Ramos

odd thing about Vincent is that he didn’t always have 4 heads.  Vincent had 3 heads back in 2012…as our news department documented when our station’s camera-shy receptionist brought the change in our pindo palm’s profile to our attention We agreed to let her conceal her identity you’ll learn what makes pindo palms grow multiple heads maybe four heads aren’t all that special anymore.  There was one reply from a Palm Talker who claimed a 4-headed pindo in his Savannah  I’m keeping an eye peeled on my email inbox There are 3 shapes of palm leaves associated with the many different species of palm trees.  The feather-shaped leaf and a leaf that looks similar to a fan shape but slightly elongated costapalmate.  The pindo palm has a feather-shaped leaf…pinnate  The Pindo palm is slow-growing and can be very long-lived.  Some may be up to 400 years old according to horticulturalist MacManus Mike Plummer is a content producer and editor for television at WFSU Public Media He spent 25 years in commercial television as an art director station manager and creative services director before coming to WFSU in 2008 Mike likes to find the “unusual” or “out of the ordinary” stories in our Local Routes He says the best part of his job is getting to know people he would otherwise probably not get a chance to meet and is constantly at war with the vines growing in his backyard Local Routes is a half-hour television program that takes viewers on a weekly journey to explore authentic northwest Florida and south Georgia to the fascinating and often hidden gems that make up our culture places and things along the way.Local Routes is a production of WFSU-TV “There is a huge range of wildlife associated with butiá, from reptiles and mammals to rodents and birds,” said Lídio Coradin, national director of the Plants for the Future project which has promoted the use and conservation of native Brazilian flora over the past two decades “That’s why we can’t ignore the value of that landscape or look only at butiá itself which is also cultivated in streets and houses in several municipalities.” There are 21 known species of butiá palm found in Brazil their fiber was used to make mattresses and other products But when these fibers were replaced by synthetic materials and many were cleared for livestock pasture The largest remnants of butiá groves in Brazil are found in Rio Grande do Sul few municipalities still have butiá groves amounting to just a few hundred hectares — a shadow of what they used to be “Mapping the remaining palm groves in the state is essential for their conservation with protected areas or better agricultural management,” said Adalberto Eberhard the Ministry of Environment’s conservation institute and former director of the Pantanal wetlands program at the nonprofit Ecotrópica Foundation to assess their conservation along the coast of Brazil’s southern region “It is vitally important that butiá groves such as the one in Santa Vitória do Palmar municipality the palm groves’ survival is threatened by pesticides carried by wind and water as well as by deforestation and by livestock that eat the shoots but they can be managed so that they become allies in maintaining and recovering the butiá groves,” said Rosa Lía Barbieri from the temperate climate division at Embrapa the research unit of Brazil’s Ministry of Agriculture One method promoted by Embrapa is to alternate livestock grazing at different points in the groves over time moving the cattle to areas where pasture supply is higher thus protecting young butiá palms from being eaten with many shoots appearing under the old trees,” Barbieri said faster-growing trees would cover the palms One of the experimental plots for this method was a mixed soybean and cattle farm with 750 hectares (1,850 acres) of butiá palms in the municipality of Tapes says the farm has been in her family for almost a century and thousands of butiás were born,” she said of the new method “We are determined to keep the groves and still have productive gains on the farm.” The area is also part of the so-called Butiá Grove Route It now includes more than 50 municipalities in southern Brazil the initiative is supported by legislation passed in 2019 companies and governments to preserve the palm groves “Butiá is a typical and very rich element of our biodiversity that has been neglected,” Embrapa’s Barbieri said “The route helps to recover and innovate in [the form of] recipes and handicrafts encouraging conservation of the species on a permanent basis “It is necessary to expand the knowledge and use of native species so they can be conserved We can’t be satisfied with just what is offered by conventional markets Exotic monocultures receive the vast majority of investments in research and production but cause the removal of lots of primary vegetation,” said Coradin from Plants for the Future Argentina has two national parks dedicated to these palms while in Uruguay the groves are located on private lands These areas are sources of revenue and jobs “Public management of protected areas in Brazil is deficient,” Barbieri said “Experiences with cattle management show that we don’t need to expropriate farms to create protected areas with butia groves.” the Rio Grande do Sul State Secretariat of the Environment said the decision not to formally protect butiá groves was taken together with the State Public Prosecution Service They “decided not to create conservation units with butiá groves in the midst of the cattle management system since studies conducted by research institutions see [existing] management as beneficial in these areas.” Regardless of whether the palm groves receive government protection efforts to save the butiá trees resonate with many residents of the state “I see what happened with butiá and other species with great sadness,” said Heller “Our food could be well supplied with native plants The work done today for butiá groves will have positive results in the long term.” This story was reported by Mongabay’s Brazil team and first published here on our Brazil site on May 9, 2022.
