Posted on behalf of Goldgroup Mining Inc. - Shareholder meetings cleared the biggest hurdle to the merger defining Goldgroup Mining (GGA.v GGAZF) this year. Its shareholders and Gold Resource Corporation's both approved the plan of arrangement the same day.
The vote: 280,061,700 Goldgroup shares voted, 92.88% of outstanding as of the May 29 record date, with over 99.99% in favor of every motion.
Next: subject to remaining conditions, closing is expected on or about July 17, 2026. Mexican antitrust clearance was granted unconditionally in April.
The combined company targets a 100,000+ oz AuEq annual run rate by 2027, zero debt and roughly US$57M net cash pro forma. Goldgroup shareholders retain about 60%.

Posted on behalf of Goldgroup Mining Inc. - With gold near $4,100 an ounce, the restarts that re-rate fastest are usually the ones already permitted and built. That is the read on Goldgroup Mining (GGA.v GGAZF) and its 100% owned San Francisco project in Sonora, Mexico.
San Francisco is a past-producing open-pit heap-leach mine that yielded roughly 1.3 million oz of gold between 2010 and 2023, with pits, crushing circuits and ADR plants still in place.
The resource: 1.226 million oz Measured & Indicated plus 178,000 oz Inferred, per the NI 43-101 report dated May 1, 2026, prepared by Micon International.
Restart is targeted for late 2026/early 2027, and CEO Ralph Shearing has said it is expected to add at least 40,000 oz of gold per year. It runs alongside the producing Cerro Prieto mine, also in Sonora.

Posted on behalf of Goldgroup Mining Inc. - The center of this story is gold. GGA.v, GGAZF holds a 100% owned, fully-permitted gold mine in Sonora, the San Francisco project, which produced roughly 1.3 million ounces between 2010 and 2023 and still carries a sizable resource today.
The numbers: 1.226 million oz Measured and Indicated, plus 178,000 oz Inferred, per the NI 43-101 technical report dated May 1, 2026 (Micon International). Restart is targeted for late 2026/early 2027, with management expecting at least 40,000 oz of gold per year added.
Two pieces of work are getting it restart-ready: a 24,000-metre infill drill program underway, funded in-house at roughly US$8M and targeting Q3 2026 (June 18, 2026 NR), and a roughly US$850,000 contract with Sonora-based INPROMINE for a 16-week recommissioning of the crushing, conveying and ADR plants (June 25, 2026 NR).
The near-term catalyst is the July 2, 2026 Gold Resource Corp. shareholder vote on the pending merger. Exchange ratio is 1.4476 Goldgroup shares per Gold Resource share, with a pro forma split of 60% GGA holders and 40% Gold Resource holders, zero debt and roughly US$57M net cash. The combined company is targeting a 100,000+ oz AuEq run rate by 2027. The deal remains pending shareholder, court, TSXV and Mexican regulatory approvals.

Posted on behalf of Goldgroup Mining Inc. - Goldgroup (GGA GGAZF) signed a US$850K contract with INPROMINE to service, test and commission the crushing, conveying and ADR plants at its 100%-owned San Francisco gold project in Sonora.
About 16 weeks to bring the existing infrastructure back online ahead of a restart.
This is a past-producing, fully permitted open-pit mine: 1.226M oz M&I plus 178K oz Inferred (NI 43-101, May 1, 2026, Micon).
Restart targeting late 2026/early 2027, expected to add at least 40,000 oz Au/yr.

Posted on behalf of Goldgroup Mining Inc. - With gold near US$4,000, the restarts that re-rate fastest tend to be the ones already permitted, with pits, heap leach and infrastructure in place. That's the lens on GGA.v, GGAZF and its 100%-owned, past-producing San Francisco gold project in Sonora, Mexico.
The resource: 1.226M oz Measured & Indicated gold, plus 178K oz Inferred, per the NI 43-101 by Micon International (May 1, 2026).
Now turning: 24,000 m infill drilling to firm up the resource and finalize an optimized mine plan, roughly US$8M funded in-house, completion expected Q3 2026.
Restart is targeted for late 2026/early 2027 and is expected to add at least 40,000 oz of gold a year.

Posted on behalf of Goldgroup Mining Inc. - Gold producer, Goldgroup Mining (GGA.v GGAZF), has commenced a 24,000m diamond core drilling program at its 100%-owned San Francisco gold project in Sonora, Mexico.
CEO Ralph Shearing explained that the drilling is intended to provide greater confidence in the mine plan and verify existing mineralization in and around the current pits and at depth.
_i]“We'll be drilling about 24,000 meters over the coming several months, and then we're going to be using that information to try to put this project back into production towards the end of this year or early next year at the latest. That should add at least 40,000 ounces of gold to our production profile.”
Drilling is expected to be completed in Q3, and Goldgroup is targeting a restart of gold production at San Francisco by the end of 2026 or early 2027.

Posted on behalf of Goldgroup Mining Inc. - Goldgroup (GGA.v GGAZF) just started turning rigs at a past-producing Sonora mine that's already fully permitted, with the open pits, heap leach, and supporting infrastructure still in place. That's a low-capital-intensity restart meeting a strong gold backdrop, which is the whole point of putting the drilling in now.
The setup in three lines:
- 24,000m diamond core program now underway, ~US$8M budget, funded in-house, completion expected Q3 2026
- 1.226M oz Measured & Indicated gold (plus 178K oz Inferred) being optimized toward a restart targeting late 2026/early 2027
- Merger vote with Gold Resource Corp. set for July 2, alongside the producing Cerro Prieto mine next door

Posted on behalf of Goldgroup Mining Inc. - Goldgroup Mining is a Vancouver-based gold producer focused on Mexico, anchored by the 100%-owned, operating Cerro Prieto heap-leach mine in Sonora. Cerro Prieto has been in commercial production since 2016 and is located 150 km northeast of Hermosillo in the Cucurpe Mining District.
Yesterday, on June 15, 2026, the Company crossed a defining threshold: it received final TSXV approval and closed the acquisition of 100% of Molimentales del Noroeste, and with it the formerly producing San Francisco Mine, free and clear of liens through a Concurso Mercantil restructuring. The Company is simultaneously advancing a business combination with Gold Resource Corporation that would add the producing Don David mine in Oaxaca, and sold its Pinos project in December 2025 to concentrate capital on these priorities.
June 15, 2026 news: Goldgroup Closes Purchase of the San Francisco Gold Mine Acquiring 100% of Molimentales Del Noroeste, S.A. De C.V. Full release: https://goldgroupmining.com/news/news-releases/2026/goldgroup-closes-purchase-of-san-francisco-gold-mine-acquiring-100-percent-of-molimentales-del-noroeste
Ralph Shearing, CEO, commented, "Closing the San Francisco acquisition is a major milestone for the Company. We intend to move quickly with infill drilling to tighten historic drill spacing, optimize the mine plan, and advance the project toward a potential restart of mining operations and gold production in late 2026 or early 2027. The San Francisco Project has a strong foundation, with current Measured and Indicated resources of 1.226 million ounces of gold and an additional 178,000 ounces in the Inferred category as recently published in a NI 43-101 Technical Report dated May 1, 20261. This Technical Report also highlights compelling exploration targets with the potential to add meaningful scale."
At roughly a C$447M market cap and a current C$1.49 share price, Goldgroup is no longer a single-asset turnaround. It is a cash-generating producer the market has already re-rated sharply, with the next leg defined by integration, a San Francisco restart, and the GRC merger rather than a single de-risking event.
The thesis is straightforward: a profitable heap-leach base at Cerro Prieto, two clear near-term levers in doubled crushing capacity and re-leaching, and as of yesterday a permitted, 1.2-Moz second Sonora asset acquired clean out of restructuring, all sitting beneath a company-defining merger that would convert Goldgroup into a multi-mine Mexican producer.
What separates them from a typical junior is that production already exists and the San Francisco overhang is now resolved; the coming quarters are about integrating Don David, drilling San Francisco toward a late-2026/early-2027 restart, and proving the Cerro Prieto ramp.

This stock is truly an interesting find.
Following the market close on Thursday, June 16, 2016, the Point and Figure chart - set to automatic scaling on Stockcharts.com - generated a reversal signal. That reversal signal went largely unnoticed because the P&F scanner uses a default setting that did not generate a signal.
By the time the Stockchart's signal was discovered, another system had already flagged it. Americanbulls.com - a site that generates buy, sell, and hold signals based on candlestick patterns - recently generated its first-ever signal for this particular stock. As Americanbulls described its signal on Friday, June 17: "Our system’s recommendation today is to STAY LONG. The previous BUY signal was issued on 06/13/2016, 4 days ago, when the stock price was 0.1592. Since then GGAZF has risen by +16.21%."
Sixteen percent over four days is somewhat remarkable. Finding a first-ever signal at Americanbulls is more remarkable.
Before Americanbulls flagged it, another system apparently running on auto-pilot had pegged it as a bullish stock. That would be the stock analysis at StockTA. Priced at only $0.1850, this play offers the potential for explosive gains. But will it deliver? Time will only tell.

Goldgroup Announces Additional Diamond Drill Holes at Caballo Blanco Project
Yielding Significant Gold Intercepts

Vancouver, British Columbia (December 16, 2011) - Goldgroup Mining Inc. ("Goldgroup" or the "Company") (TSX:GGA) is pleased to announce that additional diamond drill holes at its Caballo Blanco gold project in Veracruz, Mexico have yielded significant gold intercepts, expanding the La Paila oxide gold zone to the west and southwest. All ten drill holes reported below (see Tables 1 and 2 and the drill hole location map) are part of the ongoing drill program to define and to expand the southwestern flank of the La Paila gold zone as the zone currently remains open in this direction.
Keith Piggott, President and CEO of Goldgroup stated, "These diamond drill results yielded significant gold intercepts above the cut-off grade, which are contained in completely oxidized, vuggy and siliceous rock occurring within and peripheral to the existing La Paila zone. As anticipated, the planned 2011 drilling program is on-time and within budget, and will be completed by December 18, 2011. We are pleased to be on target for initial production at Caballo Blanco by 2012 year-end."
The Company focused its 2011 drilling program primarily on the La Paila zone, specifically with the objective to design the first open pit and to update the project's NI 43-101 resource estimate, which is expected to be released in the first quarter of 2012. Additionally, in-house and consultant engineering had significantly advanced Goldgroup's column leach testing in its large on-site facility, as well as progressed leach pad and carbon recovery plant design. The drilling and infrastructure work, combined with the upcoming updated NI 43-101 resource estimate, form the basis of our Preliminary Economic Analysis (PEA) expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2012. As a result of the La Paila's mineral characteristics and testwork indicating fast leach cycle times with a simple carbon recovery plant, Goldgroup is targeting initial production for Caballo Blanco by 2012 year-end.
As part of Goldgroup's 2012 drilling program, the Company expects to continue drill testing in the La Paila zone, in addition to drill testing a number of geochemical and geophysical targets in the large Northern zone ring structure, beyond the La Paila zone. Additionally, the Company intends to drill targets in the Highway zone, which is approximately seven kilometers to the southeast of the Northern Zone.

All the holes presented above intersected gold mineralization in excess of the 0.2g/t Au cut of grade used in our technical reports. However, it is expected that as a result of favourable leach kinetics, recovery and ease of mining, that a lower cut off grade may be applicable.
The results presented today are part of the current drill program and are intended to be used in the preparation of an updated NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate. A complete summary of the assay results from diamond drill holes DDH 11 CBN 130 to DDH 11 CBN 139, as well as a drill-hole location map of the La Paila zone detailing the relative locations of the drill holes will be posted on the Goldgroup website under "Projects - Caballo Blanco" at www.goldgroupmining.com.

About Caballo Blanco
Goldgroup owns 100% of Caballo Blanco. The Caballo Blanco project consists of a series of oxide gold zones located in the Veracruz province of eastern Mexico. The principal known gold zone at Caballo Blanco is the La Paila prospect located within a cluster of high-sulphidation epithermal alteration zones referred to as the Northern Zone. The 43-101 compliant estimated mineral resource for La Paila which was compiled from 32 diamond drill holes totaling approximately 7,000 metres completed by NGEx Resources Inc., prior to Goldgroup's acquisition of its interest in the project in November 2009, consists of 139,000 ounces of gold (6.7 million tonnes grading 0.65 g/t Au) contained in the category of indicated resources and 517,000 ounces of gold (27.6 million tonnes grading 0.58 g/t Au) contained in the category of inferred resources.
Subsequently, during 2011 Goldgroup has diamond drilled an additional 116 holes at the La Paila zone and received assays for 71 holes totaling approximately 18,000 metres. These holes will be used to update the NI 43-101 resource in the first quarter of 2012.
Other known gold zones at Caballo Blanco occur to the northeast of the La Paila and approximately 7 km to the southeast of the Highway Zone. These gold zones together with geophysical anomalies in the Northern Zone ring structure are expected to be drill tested.
Assaying and Qualified Person
After project geologists logged and marked the core, technicians cut the individual lengths with a diamond saw, then tagged the bags and secured them with security clips. The samples were then collected by ALS Minerals and transported to their Guadalajara preparation facility where they were dried and crushed to -2mm. A 250 gram split of the coarse material was then pulverized to -200 mesh. The rejects remained at the prep facility and the pulps were air couriered to ALS Minerals North Vancouver facility and analyzed for gold by 30g fire assay with an AA finish. In addition, a 35 element ICP analysis was conducted on all samples. A QA/QC program was implemented as part of the sampling procedure for the drill program. One standard, one blank or one duplicate was inserted per group of ten samples sent to the laboratory. The information in this news release has been approved by Marc Simpson, P. Geo., the Company's Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101 standards.
