5.17 g/t Au Over 2.9 Meters and 7.37 g/t Au Over 2.0 Meters

VIOR GOLD CORPORATION INC. (TSX-V: VIO) (OTCQB: VIORF) (FRA: VL5) is pleased to announce new results from its 30,000-metre ongoing drill program on its 100%-owned Ligneris Project located 55 kilometers northwest of the town of Amos, Abitibi region, Quebec.

Mineralization that returned 5.17 g/t Au over 2.90 meters including 13.4 g/t Au over 1.0 meter reported in LI-26-024 consists predominantly of trace to 3% pyrite hosted in a strongly deformed rhyolite with a moderate to strong sericitization and silicification. It extends mineralization outlined in LI-26-005-EXT (5.64 g/t Au over 4.0 meters; see news release dated March 17, 2026) by more than 100 meters towards west.

Drillhole LI-26-034 returned 7.37 g/t Au over 2.0 meters at 564.0 meters including 12.6 g/t Au over 1.0 meter. It was collared 160 meters east from drillhole LI-26-012 (12.8 g/t Au over 2.0 meters; see news release dated June 2, 2026) extending the mineralization and alteration halo further to the northeast. Mineralization occurs as finely disseminated pyrite, ranging from 1 to 2% hosted in a moderately sericitized and strongly silicified rhyolite. Additional mineralization from the same drillhole returned values of 3.45 g/t Au over 3.7 meters at 439.3 meters and 3.26 g/t Au over 2.0 meters at 697.0 meters. These results extend the known mineralized structure on South Zone to more than 1,300 meters laterally.

Mathieu Savard, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vior Gold Corporation, commented “We are building strong momentum with consistent, high-quality results at Ligneris. Drillhole LI-026-034 results are key as they are opening up gold mineralization to the east at depth and confirming that the South Zone now extends over 1.3 kilometers laterally — a significant expansion of this high-potential corridor. The next phase of drilling will focus on infilling this zone with a tighter drill mesh to further define its scale and continuity. With more than 6,000 assays still pending from the lab and drilling advancing toward the 25,000-meter mark, we remain highly encouraged about the growth potential we continue to uncover at Ligneris.”

The Corporation has completed approximately 23,600 meters of drilling since the beginning of the 2026 program and more than 6,000 assays are pending at the laboratory. Vior is currently drilling with 1 drill rig and will continue until the end of August. The Corporation is expected to complete its 30,000 meters program during Q3-2026.

Kinebik Drilling

The Corporation also wishes to announce the start of its 15,000 meters drill campaign at Kinebik. One drill rig arrived at site on Wednesday and a second drill rig is expected to arrive next week. For more details about the program, please refer to the Corporation’s new release dated June 30, 2026.

Quality Control

True widths are estimated at 65-80% of the reported core length intervals. Assays are uncut except where indicated. All NQ core assays reported were obtained by either 1-kg screen fire assay or standard 50 gram fire-assaying-AA finish or gravimetric finish at ALS Laboratories in Val d’Or, Québec or Sudbury, Ontario. The 1-kg screen assay method is used when samples contain coarse gold intervals. Selected samples are also analyzed for multi-elements using a Four Acid Digestion-ICP-MS method at ALS Laboratories. Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control, and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with NI 43-101 and industry best practices. Standards and blanks are alternately inserted every 10 samples to adhere to strict QA/QC guidelines and protocols by the Corporation and the lab. Historical results on the Ligneris Project described in this news release are from public sources and the Qualified Person responsible for the review and approval of the technical information disclosed in this news release (see details below) has not verified the information relating to these historical results. Consequently, such information is not necessarily indicative of mineralization on the Ligneris Project.
