Vancouver, British Columbia TheNewswire – March 28, 2024 Element79 Gold Corp. (CSE: ELEM | FSE: 7YS0 | OTC: ELMGF) is pleased to provide an update on the latest Chachas community engagement and ongoing efforts for its Minas Lucero Project in Arequipa, Peru.

Ongoing Communication and Support with Chachas

As an update to the Company’s news release on March 11, 2024, the Company continues to maintain positive and open lines of communication with key stakeholders in the Chachas community.  Now that the rainy season weather conditions are lessening, the community, as well as Element79’s community team have returned to Chachas, Arequipa, with renewed vigour for the new year.  Some items to look forward to in the coming days and weeks:

Local Presence: The Company continues to maintain its office in Chachas, along with an on-the-ground community assistant in Chachas to monitor developments and maintain direct communication.

Community Interaction: Ongoing dialogue with local stakeholders, community leaders and working at responding to direct inquiries of the Company’s intended work plans in 2025 and beyond.

Weather-Related Impact: Heavy rains and landslides common to this season have affected roads in and around Chachas, and working at clearing and repairing these are a priority for all community members, for safety and logistical purposes.  This weather has suspended artisanal mining operations in the area into April, although they are anticipated to recommence shortly.
