Toronto, Ontario – November 10, 2026 – Galantas Gold Corporation (TSX-V: GAL | AIM: GAL) (“Galantas” or the “Company”) announces the appointment of Alejandro Vásquez Montero as Senior Vice President, Operations, effective November 16, 2026. Mr. Vásquez will be based in Chile and will lead the restart of the Andacollo Gold project in the Coquimbo Region of Chile, where the Company is targeting the start of gold production in 2027.

 

Mr. Vásquez is a Chilean mining engineer with more than 35 years of experience building and operating some of the largest open pit mines in Chile. Most recently, from 2022 to 2026, he was Vice President of Operations and General Manager of Minera Los Pelambres, Antofagasta plc’s largest mining operation.

He has operated mines at every scale, from El Soldado to Escondida, and he has delivered projects through construction, ramp-up and production. His appointment gives Galantas the operating leadership to successfully restart Andacollo Gold and grow our presence in Chile.”
