# Quimbaya Gold Starts Drilling at Tahami Center Porphyry System *2026-06-01T07:30:00-04:00* Quimbaya Gold Starts Drilling at Tahami Center Porphyry System Initial 5,000-meter drill program tests a confirmed 2.4 × 1.3 km Cu-Mo-Au porphyry system - four independent datasets pointed here; the model now meets the drill Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 1, 2026) - _Quimbaya Gold Inc._(CSE: QIM) (OTCQX: QIMGF) (FSE: K05) ("Quimbaya" or the "Company") has commenced drill testing at the Tahami Center Cu-Mo-Au porphyry system, Segovia, Colombia. The initial diamond drill program is structured across three priority targets: Robusta, Bourbon, and Arabic, designed to test the convergence of magnetic, radiometric, and geochemical anomalies at approximately 200 to 400 meters depth. **Highlights ** - Drill testing of the Tahami Center Cu-Mo-Au porphyry system commenced late May 2026, on schedule with the Q2 2026 commitment made in the May 6, 2026 news release. - **A confirmed 2.4 × 1.3 km Cu-Mo-Au porphyry corridor, trending northwest-southeast, now enters drill testing**. Four independent methods (geophysics - radiometrics/magnetometry, geochemistry, and systematic channel sampling) converged on the same target, de-risking the program before the first hole was collared. - **Minimum 5,000-meter diamond drill program**across three priority targets, Robusta, Bourbon, and Arabic, designed to test the convergence of anomalies at 200 to 400 meters depth. - **Drilling will continue systematically**. This is a program, not an event; Quimbaya is committed to the disciplined, long-term testing of the full Tahami Center system, with updates to follow as results are received. **Alexandre P. Boivin, CEO, Quimbaya Gold:** "Drilling at Tahami Center is a milestone we have been building toward methodically. Four independent datasets converged on the same target - we did not rush to the drill; we prepared thoroughly before the first bit turned. This program is the next chapter in a disciplined, multi-target strategy," said Alexandre P. Boivin, Chief Executive Officer of Quimbaya Gold.

A confirmed porphyry system of this footprint, in a district already proven to produce high-grade gold, represents a target. Quimbaya has spent the past 8 months systematically de-risking this target: independent geological validation in January 2026, a 3.1-kilometre anomaly defined in March, and a completed pre-drill program in May. The drill is now turning in a jurisdiction where mines operate, permits are granted, and gold has been coming out of the ground for generations.

The geological work at Tahami Center checks the boxes you want to see before drilling a porphyry: porphyry-style veinlets, alteration and mineralization in outcrop on surface, magnetic and radiometric anomalies, coherent soil geochemical signature for copper, molybdenum and gold, and channel sampling with anomalous copper, molybdenum and gold that ties it all together over a 2.4 by 1.3 kilometre footprint. The drill holes will be in mineralization from or near to the surface. That is not a prospect,
