Revival Gold Inc. (TSX-V: RVG) (OTCQX: RVLGF) is pleased to report one of the highest-grade-thickness drill intercepts to date from the Joss area at the Company’s Beartrack-Arnett Project located in Idaho, U.S.A.

This year’s 5,500-meter drilling program at Beartrack-Arnett targeted the potential expansion of high-grade underground sulphide Mineral Resources, last drilled in 2022.

Highlights

• Hole BT26-255D intercepted:
  • 3.43 grams per tonne gold over 131.7 meters drilled width¹ at 543 meters downhole including a high-grade interval of:
    • 6.56 g/T gold over 42.5 meters drilled width¹ at 632 meters downhole including:
      • 11.58 g/T gold over 12.1 meters drilled width¹ at 639 meters downhole.

Note: ¹True widths are estimated to be 40-50% of drilled width.

• The high-grade interval in BT26-255D was intercepted approximately 70 meters above BT22-242D (10.1 g/T gold over 11.4 meters and 6.0 g/T gold over 10.2 meters) and approximately 150 meters below BT21-240D (8.9 g/T gold over 11.8 meters and 12.0 g/T gold over 13.7 meters). See “Preliminary Feasibility Study NI 43-101 Technical Report on Beartrack-Arnett Heap Leach Project, Lemhi County, Idaho, USA, prepared by Kappes, Cassidy & Associates, IMC, KCH and WSP August 2^nd, 2023″, for further details.
• The zone of contiguous mineralization in BT26-255D is similar to BT21-240D and suggests the beginning of a north plunging shoot. Further drilling to the northeast is warranted to delineate the extent of this zone.
• All five primary drill holes and three wedge drill holes completed in this year’s program intersected the Panther Creek Shear Zone (“PCSZ”) with results from six of the eight pierce points released to date (see Revival Gold news releases dated April 20^th and June 25^th, 2026).
• Joss has a known mineralized strike of about 1.2 kilometers, and multiple higher grade (+2 g/T gold) mineralized zones with horizontal (true) widths of 2-20 meters within a larger lower-grade halo that ranges from 5 to 70 meters true width and remains open along strike and at depth.
• Results for wedge drillholes BT26-254DW and BT26-255DW are pending.

“Revival Gold’s team at Beartrack-Arnett has delivered one of the highest-grade-thickness intercepts at Joss to date. BT26-255D’s 6.6 g/T gold over 42.5 meters provides compelling evidence in support of the impressive strength of sulphide mineralization at Beartrack-Arnett. The deposit displays true widths of 2-20 meters in the high-grade mineralized zone and remains open at depth and beyond its existing 1.2 kilometers of known mineralized strike,” said Hugh Agro, President & CEO.

“We are grateful for the excellent work preformed by our team and our drill contractors, National and Major Drilling, on this year’s program at Joss. Further results are expected in the coming weeks,” added Agro.

Background

The Beartrack-Arnett gold project is a structurally controlled orogenic gold deposit striking north-south within the PCSZ. The deposit is subject to an earn-in agreement for 100% by Revival Gold and is one of the top 5 new gold discoveries made in the United States in the last fifteen years according to S&P Capital IQ Pro. Discovery definition as an increase of gold Mineral Resources and Reserves, starting from no resource in 2010 to today.

In the Joss area, the Project currently hosts an underground sulphide Inferred Mineral Resource of 6,745,000 tonnes grading 4.05 g/T for 877,000 ounces of gold that is not included in Beartrack-Arnett’s 2023 first phase open pit, heap leach PFS economics (see “Preliminary Feasibility Study NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Beartrack-Arnett Heap Leach Project, Lemhi County, Idaho, USA” prepared by Kappes, Cassidy & Associates, IMC, KCH and WSP dated August 2nd, 2023, for further details).

Revival Gold’s 2026 drilling program in the Joss area was designed to expand the area of known mineralization at Beartrack-Arnett, contribute to a future mineral resource update, and potentially support a future underground mine economic study.

BT26-255D and BT26-253DW (a wedge hole off BT26-253D with results announced June 25^th, 2026) confirm the strength of mineralization at Joss and help define the depth of the Tertiary rocks in the basin above Joss. BT26-253DW intercepted the post-mineral Panther Creek Fault and drilled into post-mineral Tertiary rocks which may have resulted in a thinner than expected intercept.

Detailed Results

Detailed results from BT26-255D and BT26-253DW are presented below.

Table 1: Detailed Drill Results

Notes:
(1) Mineralized haloes calculated including internal dilution between shears where mineralization was mostly elevated above 0.5 g/T Au and had scattered intercepts > 1 g/T Au. High grade intercepts were not capped.
(2) All included intercepts are based on a 2 g/T cutoff grade allowing up to 1.8 m true width of internal dilution and requiring a minimum true thickness intercept of 7.6 g x m or minimum true thickness of 1.8 m. External dilution was excluded where the average of the external interval with dilution was below the cutoff grade. Additional included intervals listed for BT26-255D where multiple consecutive samples exceed 9 g/T gold.
(3) True thickness is estimated at 45-50% of drilled thickness in the reported holes.
(4) Numbers may not sum due to rounding.
(5) BT26-253DW drilled through the PCF and into post-mineral epiclastics. Reported interval is the 5.2 meters drilled before intercepting the post-mineral unit.

QA/QC Program

Quality Assurance/Quality Control consists of the regular insertion of certified reference materials, duplicate samples, and blanks into the sample stream. Sample results are analyzed immediately upon receipt, and all discrepancies are investigated. Samples are submitted to the ALS Geochemistry sample preparation facility in Twin Falls, Idaho. Gold analyses are performed at the ALS Geochemistry laboratory in Reno, Nevada and Vancouver, British Columbia. ALS Minerals is an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited lab.

Gold assays are determined on half sawn PQ and HQ core by fire assay and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) on a 30-gram nominal sample weight (Au-AA23).
