Lavras Gold to Host Exploration Workshop to Unlock District-Scale Potential at LDS Project in Brazil

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 14, 2026) - Lavras Gold Corp. (TSXV: LGC) (OTCQX: LGCFF) ("Lavras Gold" or the "Company"), a gold exploration and development company focused on unlocking value across its highly prospective land package at its Lavras do Sul Project ("LDS Project" or the "Project") in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, is pleased to announce it will be hosting a globally recognized group of geologists and technical experts at site on April 20 – 24, 2026.

The workshop will comprise the Lavras technical team, which is headed by Interim Vice President of Exploration, Jonathan Hill, and a team of leading geoscientists, mineral systems specialists, and exploration strategists with extensive experience working in major gold districts worldwide. Over the course of the workshop, the group will conduct detailed core and field reviews, evaluate existing geological models and data, and provide independent insights aimed at enhancing targeting methodologies across the 23,000-ha. LDS Project property. This initiative is part of the Company's strategy to balance project development and permitting activities while leveraging its district scale exploration potential to expand existing mineral resources and to advance work over prioritized new targets.

"The workshop objective is to challenge and strengthen our geological interpretation of the LDS Project by bringing together some of the best minds in the industry," said Jonathan Hill, Interim Vice President, Exploration of Lavras. "By leveraging the group's expertise, we aim to prioritize areas most conducive to discoveries and resource growth, ensuring we are focusing on the most prospective near-resource and district targets to unlock the Project's full value."

The five-day workshop is structured to examine various datasets, including regional and detailed geophysical and geochemical data, structural geology and results from more than 95,000 metres of historical and recent drilling at the Project. The program will be organized into three phases: a comprehensive review of the district-scale database, followed by in-field examination of the Project to observe key geological controls firsthand. The workshop will conclude with a collaborative interpretation phase where participants will challenge legacy interpretations to focus on building new, testable geological models that pinpoint the most promising targets on the property.
