Scorpio Gold Confirms District-Scale Grade Continuity Despite Valuation Compression

Executive Summary
- Scorpio Gold Corp. announced high-grade gold assay results from two step-out drill holes (26MN-067 and 26MN-068) at the Manhattan District Project in Nevada.
- Hole 26MN-067 intersected 10.40 g/t Au over 5.67 m, including a significant high-grade interval of 455.52 g/t Au over 0.49 m from 36.27 m depth.
- The results confirm mineralization extends beyond the current Inferred Resource Constraining Pit (IRCP) along the Zanzibar Trend.
- Total drilling to date in Phase Two program stands at 76 holes for a grand total of 21,939 meters, with assays reported on 58 holes and pending for 18 holes.
- Management highlighted that the Zanzibar Trend may form part of a broader district-scale structural corridor extending from Black Mammoth through Goldwedge and Mustang Hill.
Material Impact
- The intercepts are consistent with previous high-grade results released in February, March, and April 2026 along the same trend (e.g., Feb 19: 22.81 g/t over 4.24 m; Apr 28: 16.49 m @ 2.74 g/t).
- While the 455.52 g/t interval is exceptional, it represents a narrow width (0.49 m) and does not constitute a new resource definition or major discovery outside of the established exploration model.
- The news validates the ongoing Phase Two drilling thesis but lacks the surprise element required for a "Material - Positive" rating given the consistent reporting over the last six months.
- Market reaction has been muted historically despite similar grade reports, suggesting this information is largely priced in or viewed as routine exploration progress rather than a fundamental valuation inflection point.

Company Overview
- Scorpio Gold Corp. operates the Manhattan District in Nye County, Nevada, USA, located approximately 15 km south of Kinross' Round Mountain Gold Mine.
- The district is a consolidated 4,780-hectare property with historical production of ~700,000 oz Au and a maiden NI 43-101 inferred resource estimate of 740,000 oz Au at 1.26 g/t (June 2025).
- The company is executing an aggressive Phase Two drilling program targeting a minimum of 50,000 meters to expand the resource and define high-grade zones like Keystone Jumbo and Black Mammoth.
- Management aims to advance the project toward open-pit production potential through district-scale exploration rather than immediate development.
