NevGold Corp. (TSX-V:NAU) (OTCQX:NAUFF) (Frankfurt:5E50) is pleased to announce additional oxide-gold assays from the 2026 drill program at its Limousine Butte Project in Nevada. These results have significantly expanded oxide gold mineralization both inside and outside of the 2026 Mineral Resource Estimate pit-shell released on July 15, 2026 (see News Release). The focus of the 2026 20,000 meter drill program is resource expansion and conversion of the MRE.

NevGold CEO, Brandon Bonifacio, comments: “It is extremely encouraging to have thick intercepts of high-grade oxide gold grades over 1.00 g/t Au that have expanded mineralization inside and outside of the 2026 MRE pitshell. The initial 2026 drillholes at the Bullet Zone have delivered on expanding both oxide gold and antimony mineralization, and the grades intercepted have been higher than the average MRE grade profile. Our geological interpretation is that gold and antimony were deposited in the same general area during two separate mineralizing events, which explains why certain parts of the deposit are higher-grade oxide gold and others are higher-grade oxide antimony. This is important to highlight as it creates future operational and development flexibility as Limo is advanced. With two drill rigs and approximately 9,000 meters of drilling completed to date, and 33 drillholes with assays pending, our Technical Team continues to test the resource expansion potential with each drillhole. We are fully funded for the next 12-18 months with over $45 million in treasury, and our team is focused on delivering on one of the most important gold-antimony projects in the United States.”

Key Highlights 

• High-grade oxide gold mineralization significantly expanded outside 2026 MRE pit-shell with 1.06 g/t oxide Au over 42.7 meters: 

• • LB26-007 Lower (expansion outside of 2026 pit-shell): 1.89 g/t oxide Au over 18.3 meters within 1.06 g/t oxide Au over 42.7 meters (terminated in 0.52 g/t oxide Au)
  • LB26-007 Upper (infill): 0.20% Sb over 16.8 meters

• High-grade oxide gold mineralization significantly expanded inside 2026 MRE pit-shell with 5.00 g/t oxide Au over 3.0 meters

• • LB26-004 (expansion inside of 2026 pit-shell): 5.00 g/t oxide Au over 3.0 meters within 1.23 g/t oxide Au over 27.4 meters
  • Drillhole LB26-004 converted unmineralized blocks within the 2026 MRE pit-shell, immediate mineralization expansion (Figure 1, Figure 2)

• Company remains fully funded for the next 12-18 months with +$45 million in treasury

• 40 holes completed, 33 holes with assays pending after this News Release 

• Advancing Preliminary Economic Assessment and Engineering Studies at Limo Butte

Limo Butte Planned 2026-2027 Activities / Status Update
NevGold will continue its active exploration program at Limo Butte including:

• Continuing to drill test gold-antimony targets (~20,000 meters is planned in 2026 focused on the Bullet Zone / Armory Fault discoveries and resource conversion);

• Advancing metallurgical testwork (ongoing);

• Complete initial gold-antimony Mineral Resource Estimate (completed, July 15);

• Advancing PEA / Engineering Studies (in process).

2026 Drilling Results – Resurrection Ridge

*Downhole thickness reported; true width varies depending on drill hole dip and is approximately 70% to 90% of downhole thickness.
**The gold equivalents (“AuEq”) are based on assumed metals prices of US$3,000/oz of gold and US$40,000 per tonne of antimony, and assumed metals recoveries of 80% for gold and 75% for antimony.
***Values less than 0.05 g/t Au and 0.05% Sb not included.
