Sranan Gold Drilling Continues to Expand Randy’s Pit Target

by admin February 19, 2026
February 19, 2026

Randy’s Pit Extended 25 Metres to the Northwest with 20.6 Metres At 0.64 g/t Gold and 50 Metres to the Southeast with 6.58 g/t Gold over 4 Metres

Sranan Gold Corp. (CSE: SRAN,OTC:SRANF) (OTCQB: SRANF) (FSE: P84) (Tradegate: P84) (‘Sranan’ or the ‘Company’) announces assay results from its ongoing 2026 diamond drilling program currently focused on the Randy’s Pit target. These results continue to extend Randy’s Pit gold mineralization with significant near-surface assay results returned (Table 1). Randy’s Pit lies along the +4.5-kilometre Poeketi Shear Zone (‘PSZ’) which represents one shear zone on Sranan’s 29,000-hectare Tapanahony Gold Project.

Drill hole 26RADD-023 encountered 30 metres (‘m’) of 0.67 grams per tonne gold (‘g/t Au’) starting at 99 m downhole and including a one metre interval assaying 12.53 g/t Au from 106 m. The hole was designed to test the up-dip extension of the significant mineralization intersected at depth in holes 25RADD-013 and 25RADD-004, successfully assessing the vertical continuity within the established PSZ (Figure 2). In drill hole 26RADD-021, an interval of 4 metres averaged 6.58 g/t Au, including one metre grading 21.8 g/t Au. Hole 26RADD-022 contained a 20.6 m interval of 0.64 g/t Au starting from surface. Drill hole 26RADD-020 tested the structural and mineralized gap between the northern and southern portions of the Randy’s Pit target. The mineralization intersected in this hole correlates well with mineralization encountered in the southernmost drill holes, supporting structural continuity across the target area.

*Intervals are composited at a 0.3 g/t Au cut-off with internal dilution up to 10 m tolerated. Widths shown are downhole intervals and may not represent true widths. True widths are unknown.

The PSZ, which hosts the known gold mineralization at Randy’s Pit, is a mylonitic shear zone cutting folded and strained basalt​. At Randy’s Pit, the PSZ is an oblique dextral reverse shear zone​ with the main higher-grade mineralization plunging northwest along the shear fabric​. PSZ shows progressive strain with pre and post shear extensional vein sets​ and visible gold often seen on shear planes in the core.

Dr. Dennis J. LaPoint, Executive Vice President of Exploration and Business Development, notes that the current drilling is progressing well with positive drill results and efficient drilling. ‘We are expanding the Randy’s Pit target to the north with trenching and drilling and the PSZ continues to be a well mineralized gold system with multiple ore shoots, high grades, favorable widths at shallow depths and frequent visible gold seen in core. Further drilling will extend to depth and to the south.’

Samples were prepared and assayed by Filab in Paramaribo, Suriname. All samples >2 g/t were re-assayed with 50 gm re-assay and gravimetric assay. Standard QA/QC procedures were followed and showed a satisfactory level of reproducibility. The Company notes that the drill intercepts may not represent true underlying mineralization as core sample intervals are used. Core logging and photography and sampling are completed under industry standard QA/QC protocols (Oreas certified reference materials, assayed coarse blanks, duplicates of core).
