Sranan Gold Announces High-Grade Gold from Grab Samples Collected at Poeketi Mines at Tapanahony Gold Project in Suriname
The sampling has been concentrated at the Poeketi mines area of the Poeketi-Randy gold trend (see Sranan's April 1, 2025 news release). Multiple mines are opened along the 4.5-kilometer gold trend and are being mined by members of the local community. The Poeketi mines were discovered in 2020 after a local resident found gold nuggets while planting crops. Initial mining was at the surface where coarse visible gold was encountered, and now local miners are engaged in underground mining via two active shafts to a depth of 22 and 80 meters. They are extending development to the northwest where there is a thicker cover of weathered material (see Figure 1).

At the Poeketi mines, gold is associated with multi-stage shearing and re-crystallization within a major fault system. Multiple fault fill veins, sheared and transposed extensional veins have been mapped and sampled within basaltic to volcanoclastic units proximal to a property-scale granitic contact, perhaps similar in setting to the Oko West gold discovery in northwest Guyana.
Concurrently, crews are working on drill camp construction using local materials and deploying equipment. The technical team will continue mapping and sampling of the Poeketi mine extension to properly plan for the upcoming drill program. This work will be extended along the 4.5-kilometer Poeketi-Randy trend and extensions of this trend.
Dr. Dennis LaPoint, EVP Exploration and Corporate Development of Sranan Gold, commented: 'These results have exceeded our expectations. The high-grade nature of the mineralization and the complex structural setting are indicative of a potentially significant mineralizing system. These grab sample results, along with recent mapping, are advancing our understanding of the mineralization as well as the lithologic and structural controls, which will be key during our upcoming drilling program and to extend the Poeketi trend to areas covered by laterite.'
Samples were shipped to the Filab lab in Suriname. All samples >2 g/t were re-assayed with 50 gm re-assay and gravimetric assay. Standard QA/QC procedures were followed which showed a satisfactory level of reproducibility. Grab samples indicate promising evidence of high-grade gold. Channel sampling, trenching and drilling are the steps to determine average grade and thickness. The Company notes that grab samples are selected samples and may not represent true underlying mineralization.

New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - August 5, 2025) - In its latest report, has named Lyca Mobile as the top choice for travelers seeking a reliable and flexible prepaid SIM plan in 2025. The ranking is based on an evaluation of international calling features, network coverage, ease of use, and cost control, making Lyca Mobile a practical option for those who need dependable mobile service while on the move.

Whether managing remote work, navigating new cities, or staying connected to family abroad, travelers increasingly expect seamless and affordable communication options with plans starting at just $5/mo. Expert Consumers' analysis highlights how Lyca Mobile meets this demand by focusing on contract-free plans, broad global reach, and user-friendly setup. Prepaid SIM Plans for Travelers International Communication Without the Extra Steps [ This image cannot be displayed.

This benefit is available across most of the provider's monthly plans, allowing travelers to make direct calls to both landlines and mobile numbers worldwide. Destinations span North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America, helping users avoid reliance on Wi-Fi or third-party calling apps. This kind of built-in global access supports not only tourists and casual travelers, but also international students, digital nomads, and professionals working abroad who need a consistent way to communicate across time zones. Nationwide Network Backed by 5G Lyca Mobile uses T-Mobile's nationwide network to deliver 4G LTE and 5G coverage throughout the United States. This infrastructure ensures that users can expect reliable data and voice service in most urban centers, suburban communities, and many remote areas.

Users can select from a range of plans designed to match different data needs, whether for occasional messaging or for streaming and work. Quick Setup and Management Getting started with Lyca Mobile is designed to be straightforward. Users can order a physical SIM card online or purchase one in-store. For supported devices, eSIM is also available, allowing travelers to activate service without inserting a physical card. After selecting a plan, customers can activate it online in just a few minutes. During this process, they have the option to keep their existing number or request a new one. Once activated, service begins immediately, and users can manage their account or monitor usage via Lyca Mobile's website or mobile app. Flexible Plans with Frequent Promotions Lyca Mobile offers a range of plan types, each suited to different levels of usage. All plans include unlimited talk and text within the United States and international calling to 100 countries. The main differences lie in the amount of mobile data included and whether hotspot usage is supported.

These discounts are often available to new customers or those opting into auto-renew, helping stretch mobile budgets without compromising on service quality. Lyca is running some great promotions at the moment - they have a $5/mo plan that includes unlimited talk, text, and 5GB of data in addition to free calling and texting to 100 countries. They also have a $12.25/mo plan with unlimited data, texts, and calls. It also includes a 10GB hotspot in addition to free calls and texts to 100 countries. Reflections on the 2025 Travel Landscape The Expert Consumers report notes a growing demand toward prepaid options in the post-pandemic travel market.
