Drill Results

NevGold Intercepts 5.89% Antimony Over 3.0 Meters Within 2.67 g/t AuEq Over 53.3 Meters (0.59% Antimony And 0.36 g/t Au) At Bullet Zone, and Makes New Oxide Gold Discovery Over 150 Meters East

Strategic Pivot to Critical Minerals Validated as High-Grade Antimony Discovery Drives Valuation Re-Rate

Executive Summary

On January 22, 2026, NevGold Corp. announced additional drill results from its Limousine Butte (Limo Butte) project in Nevada. The highlight is the intersection of high-grade antimony at the "Bullet Zone," returning 5.89% Antimony (Sb) over 3.0 meters within a broader interval of 53.3 meters grading 0.36 g/t Gold Equivalent (AuEq).

Additionally, the company reported a new oxide gold discovery 150 meters east of the known mineralization (Hole LB25-012), intercepting 147.8 meters of 0.23 g/t Au. The company has completed 30 holes in the 2025-2026 program and is actively working toward a production scenario by leveraging historical leach pads and the new high-grade antimony zones.

Material Impact

This news is Material - Positive. * Thesis Validation: The discovery of 5.89% Sb confirms that the "Bullet Zone" (first reported Dec 2025) is not an isolated hit but a high-grade structural zone. With Antimony prices high and geopolitical supply constraints (China export restrictions), this grade is economically significant. * Expansion: The step-out drilling (LB25-012) demonstrates the system is open to the East. While the gold grade (0.23 g/t) is low, the intercept width (147.8m) suggests a large-scale bulk tonnage oxide system. * Strategic Shift: The company has successfully pivoted its narrative from a pure oxide-gold explorer to a US-domestic critical minerals (Antimony) player. This aligns with US defense interests and de-risks the low-grade gold aspect of the project. * Risk: The primary risk remains the low grade of the gold "halo." 0.23 g/t Au is marginal for many operators; the project's economics are becoming increasingly dependent on the high-grade Antimony kicker.
