Mr. Nick Campbell reports MAYFAIR GOLD COMMENCES TRADING ON THE NYSE AMERICAN UNDER THE TICKER "MINE" Mayfair Gold Corp.'s shares are now trading on the NYSE American LLC under the symbol MINE. The company will remain listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol MFG and have ceased trading on the OTCQX market. The uplisting to the NYSE American follows the company's previously announced approval and marks a significant advancement in Mayfair's strategy to expand its United States shareholder base and increase its U.S. capital markets exposure. Shareholders are not required to take any action. The company recommends that investors who have bought shares on the OTCQX monitor their accounts to ensure that their holdings correctly reflect the new ticker symbol. Nick Campbell, chief executive officer of Mayfair, commented: "Today marks an important milestone for Mayfair Gold as we begin trading on the NYSE American with the ticker 'MINE.' We were happily surprised that this ticker was available for Mayfair and it's an appropriate ticker for the company. We are advancing the Fenn-Gib gold project in the Timmins gold district in Ontario, Canada, to create a new Canadian gold mining company. We are going to build a new mine. I can't think of a better ticker for Mayfair. This listing removes barriers and makes it easier for U.S. investors to benefit from Mayfair's advancement of the Fenn-Gib gold project. With the prefeasibility study announced on Jan. 8, 2026 ('Mayfair Delivers Robust Pre-Feasibility Study for the Fenn-Gib Gold Project'), and now the successful listing on the NYSE American, Mayfair Gold is having a strong start to 2026."
