Executive Summary

Bravada Gold provided an operational update on its wholly owned Wind Mountain Gold Project in Nevada.
The company has contracted specialized firms (RESPEC, Woods Process Services, Confluence Water Resources, OAR) to lead mine planning, metallurgy, hydrology, and permitting activities.
An updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) is scheduled for release in Q3 2026.
The PEA will incorporate the October 2025 resource update, historical waste dump material, revised cost estimates, and current commodity prices.
Strategic objectives include advancing the project through the regulatory process and defining geotechnical, metallurgical, and hydrological work required for a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS).

Material Impact

The news is a routine operational update that aligns with the company's previously announced timeline for advancing the Wind Mountain project from exploration to development.
It follows the December 2025 private placement ($1.76M raised) and the February 2026 8-for-1 share consolidation, which were explicitly intended to fund engineering studies and the PFS.
The engagement of RESPEC and Woods Process Services was anticipated based on the October 2025 technical report and the February 2026 PFS update.
No new material surprises, unexpected capital raises, or changes to project economics are disclosed. The market likely priced in these engineering milestones following the recent financing and leadership transition.
Impact is incremental and expected, supporting the development timeline without altering the fundamental risk/reward profile.
