Desert Gold has appointed Diallo Cheick Ousmane as its new Vice President of Exploration for West Africa. Ousmane brings over 15 years of experience in gold and base metals exploration to the role. Meanwhile, Don Dudek will step down as Director but remain as a Senior Technical Advisor.

Tuesday, December 24, 2024 2:30 AM PST(TSXV: DAU) (FSE: QXR2) (OTCQB: DAUGF) (the'Company') is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Diallo Cheick Ousmane to the role of Vice President of Exploration, West Africa. Mr. Diallo is a distinguished mining professional with over 15 years of extensive experience in gold and base metals exploration and production within the prolific Birimian Greenstone Belt in West Africa and the Arabian Shield in Saudi Arabia.

His career has spanned several senior roles at leading companies, including Avocet Mining, Centamin, and Acacia/Barrick Gold, where he has made significant contributions to the industry. Notably, he contributed to the resource enhancement of the Inata Gold Mine in Burkina Faso. Ousmane holds a Master's degree in Geology from the University of Ouagadougou and is a member of the Society of Economic Geology (SEG) and the Ordre des Géologues du Burkina, further demonstrating his commitment to professional excellence in the field. The Company also wishes to announce that Mr. Don Dudek will resign from his position as Director effective immediately and will remain on a Senior Technical Advisor to the Company. Mr. Don Dudek commented,'Recently Desert Gold added Diallo Ousmane, a very capable Burkina Faso geologist, to lead its West African exploration team. Over the past few months, Diallo has reviewed and evaluated Desert Gold's exploration portfolio by spending an extensive amount of time in the field and working on an updated exploration plan. Consequently, I am handing the geological reins to Diallo and will back away from my role as Lead Technical Director. Concurrently, Desert Gold is also focused on developing a small gold mine with a goal of using the cash flow to support continued growth of the company. This requires a different skill set at the Board level so it now makes sense for me to back away as a Director
