Cambria Gold Mines Inc. (TSX-V: CAMB) (OTCQX: CAMVF) is pleased to announce new assay results from the ongoing infill drilling program at the Premier Mining Complex located near Stewart in northwestern British Columbia. Results from four diamond drillholes totalling 657 metres are reported herein. Highlight intervals include:
“High gold grades over potentially underground bulk mineable widths at the Silver Coin Deposit makes this area a priority for underground development in the spring of 2027. Our team has outlined a strong geological model of a multi-phased epithermal gold system with multiple, wide mineralized domains, several of which are open for expansion.” said Robert McLeod, President and CEO of Cambria Gold Mines. “Silver Coin is a key deposit bringing both tonnes and grade to the hub-and-spoke complex we are building to support the Premier Mill. We are very encouraged by these results as we look towards restarting production
Results reported in this press release are the first 2026 infill drilling results from the Silver Coin Deposit, located five kilometers north of the Premier Mill with access via an existing haul road. Mineralization consists of quartz breccias with infilling and overprinting veins of gold-bearing base metal sulfide mineralization. The quartz breccia zones form both vertical and flat lying domains at Silver Coin, with the highest grades related to the presence of visible gold within wider zones of quartz-breccia and vein hosted sulfide mineralization.
The northern portion of the Silver Coin deposit was mined in the 1990s by Westmin and Tenajon Resources by underground longhole stoping. Cambria’s approach to modelling the Silver Coin deposit is based on the operational data and history shared from Robert McLeod’s cousin, Bruce McLeod, who led the exploration, development and mining programs done at Silver Coin in the 1990s. The southern extension of this area is a focus of Cambria’s ongoing infill drilling campaign. Material from Silver Coin, combined with high-grade from the Premier Deposit, is expected to provide the initial feed for Cambria’s 2,500 tonne per day Premier Mill during the restart of mining operations, while the construction of the Red Mountain Deposit is completed. See the October 5, 2026 news release titled “Cambria Gold Mines Announces Development and Construction Update at Red Mountain and Premier Gold Projects…” for more information on the Company’s strategy and ongoing progress as it works toward a planned restart of the Premier Mill.
Results from over 14,000 metres of drilling at Silver Coin are expected over the next several weeks and will help to inform an updated Mineral Resource Estimate and Feasibility Study targeted for completion in H1 2027. Cambria anticipates infill drilling to continue through 2026 and into 2027, with a planned second phase of underground drilling commencing in early 2027.

1 – ETW = Estimated True Width. All reported intervals are down-hole lengths, with true width estimates ranging from 68-97% of the reported interval. True widths are estimated based on the angle of the drill hole with the interpreted trend of the mineralized zones.
Composite Calculations for Significant Intersections
Composites for significant intersections were calculated using a 1 g/t gold (Au) cut off grade and maximum 3 metres of consecutive internal waste. “Including” results are reported at a 10 g/t Au cut off grade with maximum 3 metres of internal waste.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control and Sample Preparation
All samples reported in this news release were obtained from NQ sized drill core. The Company maintains a rigorous sampling and QA/QC procedure for the 2026 drill program. Core samples are prepared at the ALS preparation lab in Terrace, BC. The samples are dried and then crushed to specifications of 70% passing 2mm. Crushed samples are riffle split to 1000g and pulverized to 85% passing 75µm.
Analytical work for all results is completed by ALS Canada Ltd. which maintains an internal quality assurance and quality control program and is ISO:17025 certified for the analytical methods used in this release. Pulp splits are sent directly from the Terrace preparation facility to the ALS Canada Ltd. geochemistry laboratory facility in North Vancouver for analysis. Each sample is analyzed for gold by conventional 50g fire assay with atomic absorption finish (Au-AA26) and multielement analysis by four-acid digest with an ICP finish (ME-ICP61).
Samples over 100ppm gold are re-analyzed by an overlimit 50g fire assay with a gravimetric finish (Au-GRA22). Samples over 100ppm silver are re-analyzed with an ore grade method (ME-OG62) which is a four-acid digest method followed by an ICP-AES finish (up to 1,500ppm). Samples over 1,500ppm silver trigger the overlimit silver fire assay method (Ag-GRA21) which uses a 30g aliquot and gravimetric finish. Sampling and storage activities are conducted at the Company’s secure facility in Stewart, British Columbia.
The Company maintains a QAQC program that includes the submission and review of coarse blank materials to monitor contamination and certified reference materials to assess analytical accuracy. Core duplicates, crush duplicates and pulp duplicates are used to infer sampling precision and nugget effect.
