Nevgold Extends Oxide Mineralization By Over 100 Meters: 7.27 G/T Aueq Over 3.0 Meters (6.18 G/T Au, 0.28% Sb) Within 1.55 G/T Aueq Over 32.0 Meters (0.92 G/T Au, 0.16% Sb) And 8.04 G/T Aueq Over 3.0 Meters (0.36 G/T Au, 1.98% Sb) Within 0.42% Sb Over 42.7 Meters

(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Vancouver, British Columbia, Oct. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NevGold Corp. (“ NevGold” or the“ Company”) ( TSXV:NAU) (OTCQX:NAUFF) (Frankfurt:5E50 ) is pleased to announce additional gold-antimony assays from the 2026 drill program at its Limousine Butte Project (the“Project”,“Limo Butte”) in Nevada. These results have extended mineralization by over 100 meters to the east of the Resurrection Ridge resource, adding significant mineralization potential both inside and outside of the 2026 Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) pit-shell released on July 15, 2026 (see News Release ).
NevGold CEO, Brandon Bonifacio, comments:“We are extremely pleased with the progress in the 2026 drill program. This latest set of drill results continues to demonstrate the significant oxide gold-antimony potential at Limo Butte, extending mineralization by over 100 meters to the east, both inside and outside of the Resurrection Ridge MRE pit-shell . We are also consistently encountering grades above our current MRE grade profile, which will be important as we advance the current drill program and future resource updates. The mineralized system remains open, and our geological model continues to successfully identify and expand gold-antimony mineralization across the Project. With approximately 50 holes and 12,000 metres completed to date, and 38 holes still pending assays, we believe there is significant potential for additional growth.”

Bonifacio continues:“Importantly, with over $43 million in treasury, we have the financial flexibility to continue executing our growth strategy. The Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) is advancing on schedule, with targeted completion in Q1-2027. We intend to drive shareholder value through continued operational execution and project de-risking, which creates a compelling opportunity for existing and new investors on one of the most significant oxide gold-antimony projects in the United States.”

• +$43 million in treasury focused on project development and growth strategy execution

• 50 holes completed, 38 holes with assays pending after this News Release

• Advancing Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) Engineering Study at Limo Butte with targeted completion Q1-2027

Limo Butte Planned 2026-2027 Activities / Status Update

NevGold will continue its active work programs 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);

• Advancing PEA Engineering Study (in process, targeted completion Q1-2027);

• Commencing early permitting for future operations (in process; key driver of permitting is advancement of Engineering Study)
