VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GoldHaven Resources Corp. (“GoldHaven” or the “Company”) (CSE: GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF) (FSE: 4QS) is pleased to announce the initiation of the VLF Electromagnetic (“VLF-EM”) survey at the Copeçal Gold Project, which is being completed by Avant Geofísica out of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The Survey will target structural - alteration trends believed to be favorable for gold mineralization, covering both the east and west gold-in-soil anomalies as well as their potential strike extensions.
Integrating VLF-EM geophysics with the recently completed auger litho-geochemistry program will provide GoldHaven with a robust targeting framework for finalizing priority phase one diamond drill target collar locations over the east and west anomalies. The survey is expected to take 2 weeks to complete.

Avant Geofisica has been supporting mining companies in Brazil since 2004, specializing in drone magnetometry, lidar topography, and multispectral analysis. Their team is highly qualified and uses state-of-the-art equipment/sensors. Avant Geofísica is a pioneer in drone magnetometric surveying in Brazil, and the brand has established itself as a benchmark in the industry.
Rob Birmingham, CEO of GoldHaven Resources, commented: “We are thrilled to initiate the VLF-EM survey at the Copeçal Project, a key step in our strategy to unlock the project's full potential. By working with Avant Geofísica—whose deep familiarity with the area ensures high-quality data—we aim to generate meaningful geophysical insights that will directly support and refine our upcoming diamond drill program in Q3, ultimately enhancing shareholder value.”
Auger Drill Program Samples Received
The 1,325 samples, including QAQC samples, collected from the 2,153m Auger Drill program at the Copeçal Gold project have been received by ALS Global Laboratories. Assay results are expected to be reported in late July or early August.
The Auger drill program included 92 Auger holes which systematically covered the main area of the east anomaly on a 100m x 50m grid while a further 15 reconnaissance holes targeting geochemical – structural targets projected towards the south-east from the western anomaly. Holes were drilled from surface to the weathered rock (regolith) – fresh rock interface or to a maximum depth of 30m. The average hole depth was 20.13 meters with the hole depth range of 2m – 30m.
About the Copeçal Gold Project: A Brief History
The Copeçal Gold Project is strategically situated within the Alta Floresta Gold Province, a historically productive region that has yielded substantial gold discoveries since the late 1970s. GoldHaven's tenements cover a total of 3,681 hectares in a geologically favorable setting within the Juruena Gold Province of Brazil.
The Juruena Gold Province, also known as the Juruena Magmatic Arc, is an orogenic belt highly prospective for mesothermal shear-related and intrusion-related gold deposits, such as G-Mining’s Tocantinzinho deposit. Additionally, the region hosts recently identified porphyry-style deposits (e.g., Serabi, Jaca) and epithermal-style deposits (e.g., X1, Aura). The presence of multiple deposit styles, along with the confirmation of large-scale gold deposits in the Juruena Province of Brazil, underscores the significant potential of the Copeçal Gold Project.
Recent exploration programs, including geochemical soil sampling, drone-mounted magnetometry surveys, and historical drilling data, indicate the presence of multiple gold-bearing structures. Notably, AngloGold Ashanti previously conducted systematic exploration on the property from 2010 to 2016, including auger and air-core drilling, geophysical surveys, and rock geochemistry, identifying multiple zones of anomalous gold mineralization.
The Copeçal Gold Project benefits from extensive historical work, with AngloGold Ashanti’s exploration confirming gold and arsenic anomalies, indicative of significant mineralization potential. Soil sampling grids and follow-up auger drilling in key areas revealed consistent gold values over wide zones, further supporting the presence of a substantial mineralized system.
