Aldebaran Resources announces next steps, priorities for Centauri Minerals

The completion of the seed financing round allows Centauri to immediately activate its exploration and commercial programs in parallel. Key initiatives and priorities include: Technical Report update – already in discussions with independent consultants to complete update of NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Rio Grande Project in preparation for go-public requirements. Human Resources – led by Sam Leung, Centauri will build out a management and exploration team with a strong emphasis on in-region technical and cultural experience to advance the exploration portfolio. Geophysical and geochemical field programs – the Centauri team is actively considering and will select several state-of-the-art geophysical and geochemical technologies that could be advantageously applied to Rio Grande and Aguas Calientes to increase the probability of future drilling success. Members of the Centauri team have extensive experience with these modern tools within Argentina and across the Americas, including a network of reputable service providers. Administration in Argentina – completion of subsidiary and project portfolio transfers and filings with regulators, as well as renewal of drill permit for the Rio Grande project, expected in 2026. Go-public plan – Centauri has begun work on its plan to become a public company in 2026, with a focus on commercial and legal requirements as well as investor and social media strategy.
