NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Toronto, ON – May 2, 2024 – Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG, OTCQX: RVLGF) (“Revival Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the successful completion of its previously announced brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $7,167,464 (the “Offering”). The Offering was co-led by Paradigm Capital Inc. and BMO Capital Markets, on behalf of a syndicate of agents, which included Beacon Securities Limited (the “Agents”).

The Offering was completed in connection with the proposed acquisition by the Company of all the issued and outstanding shares of Ensign Minerals Inc. (“Ensign”) pursuant to a three-cornered amalgamation (the “Transaction”) between the Company, Ensign, and Revival Gold Amalgamation Corp. (“Revival Subco”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Shareholders of Ensign overwhelmingly approved the Transaction at a meeting of shareholders held on May 1, 2024. Closing of the Transaction is expected to occur within the next couple of weeks and is subject to the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions. Please see the Company’s press release dated April 10, 2024, for further information on the Transaction. The Transaction remains subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”)

Under the Offering, 22,398,325 subscription receipts of Revival Subco (the “Subscription Receipts”) were sold by Revival Subco at a price of $0.32 per Subscription Receipt (the “Issue Price”). Each Subscription Receipt represents the right of a holder to receive, upon satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions (as defined below), without payment of additional consideration, one common share of Revival Subco (a “Revival Subco Share”) and one-half of one Revival Subco common share purchase warrant (each whole such warrant, a “Revival Subco Warrant”), in accordance with the terms and conditions of a subscription receipt agreement entered into among the Company, Revival Subco and Marrelli Trust Company Limited (the “Subscription Receipt Agent”) dated May 2, 2024 (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, the Offering and the Subscription Receipt Agreement, each Revival Subco Share issued under the Offering will be exchanged for one common share of the Company (a “Revival Share”), and each Revival Subco Warrant will be exchanged for one Revival Share purchase warrant (a “Revival Warrant”). Each Revival Warrant will be exercisable by the holder thereof for one Revival Share (each, a “Revival Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of C$0.45 per Revival Warrant Share for a period of thirty-six (36) months following the satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions, subject to adjustments in certain events.

The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used by the Company, following completion of the Transaction, to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment on Ensign’s Mercur Project, advance permitting preparations on the Company’s Beartrack-Arnett Project (“Beartrack-Arnett”), continue exploration for high-grade material at Beartrack-Arnett, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

As consideration for their services, the Agents are entitled to receive: (i) a cash commission of $430,048; and (ii) 1,343,900 non-transferable compensation warrants (the “Compensation Warrants”). Each Compensation Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Revival Subco Share at the Issue Price for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions. 50% of the Agent’s aggregate cash commission and corporate finance fee, and the Compensation Warrants, were paid and issued, respectively, to the Agents upon closing of the Offering, with the remainder to be paid to the Agents upon satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions.

The net proceeds from the sale of the Subscription Receipts (the “Escrowed Funds”), net of 50% of the aggregate cash commission and the Agent’s expenses have been deposited in escrow and will be held by the Subscription Receipt Agent pending the satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions.

The escrow release conditions for the Offering (the “Escrow Release Conditions”) are as follows:

  • Written confirmation from Revival Gold and Revival Subco of the completion or irrevocable waiver or satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the Transaction (except such conditions that can only be satisfied at the effective time of the Transaction);
  • The receipt of all required regulatory, and shareholder approvals, as applicable, for the Transaction and the Offering, including the conditional approval of the listing of the Revival Shares to be issued in connection with the Offering on the TSXV;
  • Written confirmation to the Agents from each of the Company and Ensign that all conditions of the Transaction have been satisfied or waived, other than release of the Escrowed Funds, and that the Transaction shall be completed forthwith upon release of the Escrowed Funds;
  • The distribution of the Revival Shares following the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions being exempt from applicable Canadian prospectus and registration requirements of applicable securities laws and not subject to any hold or restricted period;
  • The Company, Revival Subco and Ensign shall not be in breach or default of any of its covenants or obligations under the Subscription Receipt Agreement or the agency agreement dated May 2, 2024 entered into among Revival, Revival Subco, Ensign and the Agents (the “Agency Agreement”), except (in the case of the Agency Agreement only) for those breaches or defaults that have been waived by the Agents and all conditions set out in the Agency Agreement shall have been fulfilled; and
  • Revival Gold, Revival Subco, Ensign, and the lead agent (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Agents) having delivered a joint notice to the Subscription Receipt Agent confirming that the conditions set forth have been satisfied or waived (to the extent such waiver is permitted).

In the event that the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied on or before the date which is 75 days following the closing of the Offering, or if prior to such time, the Company advises the lead agent or announces to the public that it does not intend to or will be unable to satisfy the Escrow Release Conditions or that the Transaction has been terminated or abandoned, the net escrowed proceeds under the Offering (plus any interest accrued thereon) will be returned to the holders of the Subscription Receipts on a pro-rata basis and the Subscription Receipts will be cancelled without any further action on the part of the holders. To the extent that the escrowed proceeds are not sufficient to refund the aggregate issue price paid to the holders of the Subscription Receipts, the Company will be responsible and liable to contribute such amounts as are necessary to satisfy any shortfall.

The Subscription Receipts are subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance. The Revival Shares and Revival Warrants to be issued upon the conversion of Subscription Receipts and closing of the Transaction will not be subject to a hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.

Certain insiders of the Company, namely Hugh Agro, Robert Chausse, Wayne Hubert, Michael Mansfield, Maura Lendon and Tim Warman (together, the “Insiders”) subscribed to the Offering for an aggregate of 1,402,950 Subscription Receipts. This issuance of Subscription Receipts to the Insiders constitutes a “related party transaction” as such term is defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on an exemption from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.5(a) and section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, on the basis that the participation in the Offering by Insiders does not exceed 25% of the fair market value of the Company’s market capitalization. The Subscription Receipts issued to the Insiders, and the Revival Shares and Revival Warrants issuable thereunder, will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”). The Offering remains subject to certain conditions including but not limited to the approval of the TSXV, satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions, completion of the Transaction and other conditions in the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

The Company also announces that it proposes to issue Revival Shares as part of the payment to MPA Morrison Park Advisors Inc. (“MPA”) in connection with their provision of financial advisory services including delivery of a fairness opinion to the Company’s Board of Directors in relation to the Transaction and ancillary matters (the “Services”). The Company entered into a financial advisory services agreement with MPA on February 2, 2024 (the “MPA Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay MPA a cash fee to perform the Services (the “Fee”), payable upon the successful completion of the Transaction. Pursuant to the MPA Agreement, Revival may elect to pay a portion of the Fee, equal to $250,000 in Revival Shares. Accordingly, upon completion of the Transaction, Revival expects to issue to MPA that number of Revival Shares equal to $250,000 based on the closing price of the Revival Shares on the TSXV on the trading day immediately prior to the date the Transaction closes.

The securities offered pursuant to the Offering have not been, nor will they be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. “United States” and “U.S. person” are as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.

Revival Gold Agrees To Acquire Ensign Minerals And Announces Concurrent C$7 Million Equity Financing

Creating One of the Largest Gold Development Companies in the
United States with an Enhanced Platform for Heap Leach Gold Production from Low CapEx Brownfield Sites

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Toronto, ON – April 10th, 2024 – Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG, OTCQX: RVLGF) (“Revival Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive business combination agreement with Ensign Minerals Inc. (“Ensign”) and Revival Gold Amalgamation Corp. (“Revival Subco”) dated April 9th, 2024 (the “Definitive Agreement”), whereby Revival Gold will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Ensign, a private company, in exchange for an aggregate of 61,376,126 million shares of Revival Gold based on a share exchange ratio of 1.1667 Revival shares for each Ensign share. Upon completion of the proposed business combination (the “Transaction”), Revival Gold will pursue engineering and economic studies at the newly acquired Mercur Gold Project (“Mercur”) located in Utah, USA while continuing to advance permitting preparations and ongoing exploration at the Company’s Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project (“Beartrack-Arnett”) located in Idaho, USA.

In connection with the Transaction, Paradigm Capital Inc. and BMO Capital Markets Inc. have agreed to act as lead agents and joint bookrunners, on behalf of a syndicate of agents, in connection with a concurrent offering of subscription receipts of Revival Subco (the “Subscription Receipts”) for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$7,000,000 (the “Concurrent Offering”).

Transaction Highlights

  • Delivers Accretive Growth.  With aggregate Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources of 2.4 million ounces of gold1,3 and Inferred Mineral Resources of 3.8 million ounces of gold2,3, the Transaction increases Revival Gold’s heap leach gold resources per share and creates one of the largest, pure gold, development companies in the United States4.
  • Shortens Estimated Timeline to Heap Leach Gold Production. Mercur’s preferential location on predominately patented (private) claims, in a semi-arid zone, with existing infrastructure, and a short drive from Salt Lake City, Utah, is ideal for permitting and is expected to accelerate Revival Gold’s goal of becoming a mid-tier U.S. heap leach gold producer.
  • Complementary and Sizeable Asset Base. Opportunity for capital efficient phased production growth from brownfield sites with a combined target open pit heap leach production objective of 150,000 ounces of gold per year from Mercur and Beartrack-Arnett, potentially growing to greater than 250,000 ounces of gold per year with the exploitation of Beartrack-Arnett underground mill material. A phased development approach lowers risk and creates greater value per share as the business grows.5,6
  • Significant Exploration Potential. Numerous open exploration targets have been identified on the extensive land packages at both Mercur in the northeastern Great Basin and Beartrack-Arnett in the Idaho Orogenic Gold Belt.
  • Synergies. The regional proximity of the projects offers the potential to unlock management, G&A, operational and public market efficiencies. No significant additional management resources are required since the assets are in adjacent states approximately six hours’ drive from each other. There is potential to leverage cross-project experience and expertise to collaborate on studies, permitting, and project de-risking.
  • Financial Strength. Concurrent C$7 million equity financing and existing cash balances will provide funding support to advance key milestones at Mercur and Beartrack-Arnett.
  • Veteran Leadership in Gold. The resulting company will have significant in-state experience in the exploration, development, and operation of gold projects in the Western U.S. with strategic and capital markets leadership from Toronto backed by a larger group of key shareholders.

“With the addition of Mercur, we expect to shorten our estimated timeline to heap leach gold production while increasing the potential production scale of Revival Gold’s heap leach gold business to approximately 150,000 ounces per year. The combined Mineral Resource will vault Revival Gold ahead to become one of the largest, pure gold, development companies in the United States”, said Revival Gold President & CEO, Hugh Agro.

Mr. Agro further commented: “We are pleased to be entrusted by Ensign’s shareholders with the future development of Mercur. The Transaction is a “win-win” outcome for all concerned creating a clear path for Revival Gold to unlock significant value for shareholders by potentially expediting the path to become a mid-tier open pit heap leach gold producer. With Mercur, Revival Gold will obtain a high-quality complementary project at an attractive acquisition price of about US$10 per ounce in situ. Incorporating an asset that brings forward Revival Gold’s potential production date marks a considerable enhancement to the value, risk profile, and upside for the Company”.

John Knowles, Chairman and Director of Ensign, added: “Ensign is pleased to join with Revival Gold to deliver value for our respective shareholders in gold. The combined company will feature veteran industry leadership, synergistic and complementary gold assets, and a credible business plan to become a cash-flowing mid-tier U.S. gold producer ”.

Transaction Details

Pursuant to the terms of the Definitive Agreement, Revival Gold will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Ensign pursuant to a statutory three-cornered amalgamation (the “Amalgamation”) under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), whereby Ensign and Revival Gold Amalgamation Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Revival Gold incorporated for the purpose of completing the Amalgamation, will amalgamate to form a newly amalgamated company (“Amalco”). Under the Amalgamation, former shareholders of Ensign (“Ensign Shareholders”), other than Ensign Shareholders who have validly exercised and have not withdrawn rights of dissent, will receive 1.1667 Revival Shares (as defined below) for each one common share of Ensign (each, an “Ensign Share”) held. The consideration implies a purchase price of C$0.4164 per Ensign Share, or gross consideration of approximately C$21.9 million, based on a deemed 20-day volume weighted average price per Revival Share of C$0.3569 prior to announcement. Upon completion of the Amalgamation, Amalco will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Revival Gold. As of the date hereof, there are (i) 113,159,547 Revival Shares issued and outstanding, and (ii) 52,606,605 Ensign Shares issued and outstanding. Upon completion of the Transaction (and without accounting for the Concurrent Offering), Revival Gold is expected to have approximately 174,535,673 Revival Shares issued and outstanding, on an undiluted basis, with (i) approximately 65% of such Revival Shares expected to be held by the current shareholders of Revival Gold, and (ii) approximately 35% of such Revival Shares expected to be held by the former shareholders of Ensign.

Upon completion of the Transaction, Revival Gold will be the parent company and the sole shareholder of Amalco and will indirectly carry on the current business of Ensign. In connection with the Transaction, Ensign will seek the approval of its shareholders with respect to the Amalgamation at a meeting of Ensign Shareholders to be convened around the end of April 2024 (the “Ensign Meeting”). An information circular providing further information on the Amalgamation will be provided to the Ensign Shareholders in connection with the Ensign Meeting.

The Transaction has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of Revival Gold and Ensign, and the Board of Directors of Ensign recommends that Ensign shareholders vote in favour of the Transaction and related matters. Ensign’s Board and management and other shareholders representing approximately 27% of the Ensign Shares have entered into voting support agreements in support of the transaction. Wayne Hubert, Revival Gold’s current Non-Executive Chairman, is the President and CEO and a Director of Ensign and abstained from voting on the Transaction for both Revival and Ensign due to conflicting interests. Closing of the Transaction is subject to certain condition precedents, including but not limited to: Obtaining Ensign Shareholder approval at the Ensign Meeting, obtaining any applicable regulatory approvals including the approval of the TSXV, closing of the Concurrent Offering for aggregate gross proceeds of a minimum of $5,000,000, and other customary conditions for transactions of this nature.

The Board of Directors of Revival Gold has received an opinion from MPA Morrison Park Advisors Inc. to the effect that, based on and subject to the assumptions, limitations, and qualifications stated in such opinion, the consideration to be paid by Revival Gold pursuant to the Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view to Revival Gold.

The Board of Directors of Revival Gold following the closing of the Transaction is expected to remain at seven (7) Directors, with Ensign Board of Director nominee Norm Pitcher expected to replace Michael Mansfield as a Director of Revival Gold, who is expected to resign from his position upon closing of the Transaction.  Additionally, upon closing of the Transaction, Revival Gold expects to designate independent Director Tim Warman as Non-Executive Chairman, with Hugh Agro serving as President & CEO and Director, John Meyer as Vice President, Engineering & Development, and Lisa Ross as Vice President & CFO.

Mercur Gold Project Overview

The majority of the information summarized below on Mercur has been extracted from the Technical Report titled, “NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Mercur Project, Camp Floyd and Ophir Mining Districts, Tooele & Utah Counties, Utah, USA”, prepared by Lions Gate Geological Consulting Inc., RESPEC Company LLC, and Kappes, Cassidy & Associates, dated February 1st, 2024. The Technical Report will be filed within 45 days of this news release under Revival Gold’s SEDAR+ profile (www.sedarplus.ca). Readers are encouraged to read this technical report in its entirety, including all qualifications, assumptions and exclusions that relate to the Mineral Resource estimate. This technical report is intended to be read as a whole, and sections should not be read or relied upon out of context.

  1. Location and History

Mercur is located 57 kilometers southwest of Salt Lake City in the Oquirrh Mountains in Utah, a highly mineralized mountain range that is also host to the Barney’s Canyon and Melco sediment-hosted gold deposits, and Bingham Canyon, one of the world’s largest copper-gold mines. See Figure 1, Location Map, below.

Figure 1:  Mercur Gold Project Location Map

Historically, 2.6 million ounces of gold were mined from the Mercur District, including approximately 1.5 million ounces of gold produced from Mercur by Getty Oil Company (“Getty”) and later Barrick Gold (“Barrick”) during the period of 1983 to 1998.

Mercur includes interests in 463 patented mining claims, 426 fee land tax parcels, 395 unpatented lode mining claims, three unpatented mill site claims, and six Utah state metalliferous minerals leases that cover 6,255 net hectares (approximately 15,300 net acres) of mineral rights. The existing Mineral Resources are primarily situated on private land.

Barrick operated Mercur until 1998 when it was closed due to low gold prices. In recent years, Barrick has substantially completed reclamation of the Mercur site.

In August 2020, Ensign executed an assignment agreement with Rush Valley Exploration for 3,579 net hectares primarily in the West Mercur area which was followed by, also in August 2020, a merger agreement with Priority Minerals securing an additional 213 net hectares in the South Mercur area.

On May 13, 2021, Ensign entered into an option agreement (subsequently amended on June 13, 2022, May 15, 2023, and April,1, 2024) with Barrick (the “Barrick Agreement”) to acquire Barrick’s interests in the Mercur area (the “Mercur Option”). The Barrick Agreement, as amended, which has an expiry of January 2, 2026, enables Ensign to acquire Barrick’s interests for a total of US$20 million in cash or, at the sole discretion of Barrick, shares, payable as follows:

  1. US$5 million due on exercise of the Mercur Option;
  2. US$5 million due on first anniversary of commercial production at Mercur;
  3. US$5 million due on second anniversary of commercial production at Mercur; and,
  4. US$5 million due on third anniversary of commercial production at Mercur.

In addition, in connection with the Barrick Agreement, Ensign issued Barrick four million Ensign warrants with an exercise price of C$0.25 per Ensign share and an expiry of January 2, 2029, and granted Barrick a 2% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) over the Main Mercur area and a 1% Area of Interest NSR over certain other Barrick claims within the Mercur district.

In late August 2021, Ensign completed an option and assignment agreement with Mountainwest Minerals for certain claims in South Mercur. In October 2021, two option and assignment agreements were executed with Sacramento Gold Mining (three-year option to explore 90 net hectares) and Geyser Marion Gold Mining (three-year option to explore 673 net hectares). Throughout 2021, Ensign staked several claims at Main, North, South and West Mercur. In 2022, Ensign executed an exploration license with an option to purchase on one claim held by a private party and purchased a 4.2% outstanding interest on some of its properties to consolidate a 100% interest.  In 2023, Ensign leased an outstanding 25% interest in certain claims to increase its interest to 75%.    The resulting Mercur property position is outlined in Figure 2, Mercur Gold Project Claim Map, below.

Figure 2:  Mercur Gold Project Claim Map

  1. Mineral Resource and Geology

The Mercur property hosts an Inferred Mineral Resource of 89.6 million tonnes, grading 0.57 g/t gold containing 1.64 million ounces of gold as summarized in Table 1, Mercur Gold Project Mineral Resource, below.

Note: See “NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Mercur Project, Camp Floyd and Ophir Mining Districts, Tooele & Utah Counties, Utah, USA” prepared by Lions Gate Geological Consulting Inc., RESPEC Company LLC, and Kappes, Cassidy & Associates, dated February 1st, 2024, for further details.

The Mercur Mineral Resource has been estimated in conformity with generally accepted guidelines outlined in CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines (November 29, 2019) and is reported in accordance with NI 43-101.

Estimations are made from 3D block models based on geostatistical applications using commercial mine planning software (MinePlan). The project limits are based on a local mine grid system. Separate block models were set up for Main Mercur and South Mercur with a nominal block size of 50 x 50 x 30 feet (15 x 15 x 9 meters). Sample data is derived from a combination of surface diamond and reverse circulation drill holes. The pierce points of the drill holes into the mineralized zone vary but can be approximately 25- to 50-foot (8- to 15-meter) spacing in the areas of historic mining.

There is a total of 2,970 drillholes in the block models. Of these, 2,861 holes are historical holes that were primarily drilled by Barrick and Getty, and 109 holes were drilled by Ensign. Comparisons show that the Ensign drill hole and Barrick drill hole sample results agree over all areas being investigated.

The Mercur Mineral Resource estimate has been generated from drill hole sample assay results and the interpretation of a geologic model that relates to the spatial distribution of gold and silver. Interpolation characteristics were defined based on the geology, drill hole spacing, and geostatistical analysis of the data. The Mineral Resources were classified according to their proximity to sample data locations and are reported, as required by NI 43-101, according to the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (May 2014).

  1. Exploration & Development

Revival Gold considers the large regional package at Mercur to hold attractive potential for additional discoveries based on the project’s track record of past production and the results of recent fieldwork undertaken by Ensign. Nevertheless, Revival Gold’s primary objective with its work programs on Mercur over the next 6-12 months will be to advance metallurgy, optimize the project’s geological model and pursue the completion of a potential PEA.

While advancing towards a PEA, Revival Gold expects to continue the compilation of historical data, property-wide prospecting, geological mapping, and planning for potential future exploration drilling.

The potential exists to expand existing resources and to identify new gold resources beyond the pit margins of the historical Mercur mine.  At South Mercur, there are also opportunities to expand the known gold mineralization.

In addition to the potential expansion of known mineralization at Main Mercur and South Mercur, Mercur offers several exploration opportunities for new targets.  At Main Mercur, the potential for mineralized feeder structures and deeper, potential stratigraphic host units is under-explored. At South Mercur, where mineralization seems to occur at the intersection of the northerly striking Mercur Member beds and northwest-trending structural zones, there is potential for the discovery of new en-echelon pods of mineralization. The West Mercur pediment is a greenfield area that holds potential for deposits concealed beneath relatively thin alluvial cover. North Mercur is an early-stage exploration area that has permissive geology for new silver and gold discoveries.

  1. Metallurgy

Mineralization at Mercur consists of very fine to fine gold particles associated with oxide, sulfide, and carbonaceous minerals. The oxidation profile in the deposits is complex with influence from bottom-up fluid movement and structural disruption. A carbon-in-leach (“CIL”) process plant was built and commissioned at the site in 1983 to process the higher-grade ore and operated until 1997. This CIL plant operated until 1997 and produced approximately 1.5 million ounces of gold. A dump heap leach for the low-grade materials operated from 1985 to 1998 producing approximately 380,000 ounces of gold. In 1988, a pressure oxidation (“POX”) plant was installed to treat refractory sulfide materials. This POX plant operated until February 1996 and pre-processed approximately 300,000 ounces of gold ultimately produced out of the CIL plant. Mercur produced approximately 1.5 million ounces of gold until it was closed by Barrick in 1998.

Ensign’s focus has been on potential heap leachable and/or CIL material at Mercur. During 2022 and 2023, initial metallurgical test work was completed for Ensign jointly by Bureau Veritas Minerals in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada and ALS Metallurgy in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada. This work included ten CIL bottle roll cyanide amenability tests (2022) and ten direct cyanidation (“DCN”) leach tests (2022).

Historical and Ensign DCN testing results were used by Ensign’s consultants to estimate heap leach gold recoveries. DCN estimates were incorporated into the Mercur block model then discounted by 15% to reflect potential heap leach gold recoveries. The gold recoveries assumed for the Mercur Mineral Resource estimate by domain are summarized in Table 2 below.

  1. Existing Infrastructure

Mercur has existing infrastructure with a paved access road to the Mercur security gate. The former Barrick mine offices and security gate are operational. The site is connected to grid power at 460 kW and has potential access to water through wells used by the prior operation. The wells and associated water rights are currently held by Tooele County and are not in use.

Concurrent Offering Details

Revival Gold will issue a subsequent news release outlining the details of the proposed Concurrent Offering once finalized. The net proceeds of the Concurrent Offering are expected to be used by Revival Gold, following completion of the Transaction, to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) on Mercur, advance permitting preparations on Beartrack-Arnett, continue exploration for high-grade material at Beartrack-Arnett, and for working capital and general corporate purposes. In addition, Revival Gold will grant the Agents an option, exercisable, in whole or in part, for a period of up to two (2) business days prior to the closing of the Concurrent Offering, to sell up to an additional 15% of the Subscription Receipts offered under the Concurrent Offering. The Concurrent Offering is subject to settling definitive terms, the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) and other necessary regulatory approvals.

Revival Gold Expands Land Position and Advances Exploration South of Joss

Toronto, ON – February 21st, 2024 – Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG, OTCQX: RVLGF) (“Revival Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the expansion of its land position, the results of recent geophysical and geological work, and the advance of exploration on a newly defined target area known as Sharkey on the Company’s Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project (“Beartrack-Arnett”) located in Idaho, USA.

Highlights

  • Fifty-seven lode claims encompassing 476 hectares have been staked to increase Revival Gold’s land position on prospective exploration ground at the south end of Beartrack-Arnett (see Figure 1 for details);
  • 18-line kilometers of IP geophysics along with 16-line kilometers of CSAMT geophysics collected over multiple campaigns at Beartrack between 1990 and 1996 were reprocessed with present-day algorithms to produce a consistent set of 2-D inversion products;
  • The reprocessed geophysical data together with results from last season’s soil geochemistry survey and recent Leapfrog software-based geological and structural modeling has further clarified Revival Gold’s understanding of the geology and structure in the Panther Creek-Coiner Fault System;
  • The Panther Creek-Coiner Fault System extends approximately five kilometers south of the Joss Zone at Beartrack-Arnett and is now thought to be an anastomosing (or braided) fault system that is typical of the structures that host many orogenic gold deposits;
  • Potential targets in braided shear zones include bends, or changes in strike, and structural intersections of the various structures within the broader structural system, and multiple strands of the shear zone may be mineralized; and,
  • Chief among the newly defined targets is Sharkey located within the Panther Creek Structural Corridor approximately two kilometers south of the existing underground mineralization in the Joss target area.

“Revival Gold’s recent work analysing and modeling geophysical and geological data from the south end of Beartrack-Arnett has sharpened our exploration team’s focus on the Panther Creek-Coiner Fault braided fault system”, said Hugh Agro, President & CEO. “The Sharkey target has emerged as a high-value under-cover target with tonnage and grade potential equivalent to, and perhaps greater than, what we have at Joss. Sharkey lies within Revival Gold’s approved Plan of Operations permit for drilling at Beartrack-Arnett and represents a high-priority target for follow-up exploration this season,” added Agro.

Further Details

The Beartrack-Arnett Project consists of two orogenic gold systems with a Measured & Indicated Mineral Resource of 86.2 million tonnes at 0.87 g/T gold containing 2.42 million ounces of gold, and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 50.7 million tonnes at 1.34 g/T gold containing 2.19 million ounces of gold (see “Preliminary Feasibility Study NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Beartrack-Arnett Heap Leach Project, Lemhi County, Idaho, USA”, prepared by Kappes, Cassidy & Associates, Independent Mining Consultants, Inc., KC Harvey Environmental LLC, and WSP USA Environment & Infrastructure Inc. dated August 2nd, 2023).

Most of the Beartrack-Arnett Mineral Resource is contained within five deposits at Beartrack distributed over more than five kilometers of strike of the Panther Creek Shear Zone (“PCSZ”). Gold has been encountered in all Revival Gold drill holes intersecting the PCSZ, and the structure has been drill-tested over a vertical distance of 750 meters. The high-grade, potentially underground mineable resource at Joss (6.7 million tonnes of Inferred Mineral Resource at 4.0 g/T gold containing 877,000 ounces of gold), has been drilled for over 400 meters vertically and mineralization is open in all directions.

The most favorable host rocks at Beartrack are Mesoproterozoic siltites and silty quartzites. These units are mineralized in the South Pit ore body and at Joss, where grades are generally highest. These units extend to the south and are exposed along the margins of the Leesburg Basin.

Revival Gold’s IP and reprocessed CSAMT geophysical lines effectively map contrasting resistivities between the post-mineralization (Tertiary and Quaternary) Leesburg Basin fill sequence and the Mesoproterozoic host rocks. In the Joss area, mineralization occurs immediately east of a post-mineral Basin bounding fault (Coiner Fault).  The structure is effectively mapped by the CSAMT and can be projected for approximately five kilometers south of Joss (see Figure 2 for details).

The Coiner Fault, and associated mineralization, is not exposed south of the South Pit due to extensive post-mineralization Tertiary sedimentary and volcanic cover in the Leesburg Basin. The post-mineralization cover obscures geology and presents an intriguing exploration opportunity as any mineralization in this area is not exposed.

The intersection of the Coiner Fault and the Arnett structure is also an exploration target. This is the deepest portion of the Leesburg Basin but represents a large area of favorable structural preparation.

In addition to the recently reprocessed geophysics, Revival Gold conducted a soil survey during the 2023 field season to characterize the soil geochemistry over the Coiner Fault.  119 soil samples were taken over the approximate trace of the fault.  Overall, the soil survey showed a general trend of increasing gold, arsenic, and mercury from south to north. A spatially coherent anomaly over the structure was, however, not detected.

In 2020 Revival Gold drilled three core holes approximately 1.2 to 2.2 kilometers south of the southern Joss drill fence to explore the intersection of the Arnett Creek structure with the Coiner Fault. Difficult drilling conditions prevented the holes from testing a significant thickness of the target stratigraphy. The holes are thought to have encountered the trough of the Leesburg Basin but were drilled west of the Coiner Fault based on Revival Gold’s current CSAMT interpretation.

In 2021 Revival Gold continued exploring both Joss and the southern extension of the Coiner Fault south of Joss. One core hole was drilled approximately 500 meters south of the southern Joss drill fence. Based on Revival Gold’s current understanding of the Joss deposit architecture, this hole is believed to have passed over the top of the mineralized horizon intercepting 73 meters of the target Mesoproterozoic stratigraphy before passing back into the post-mineral basin fill. Anomalous gold (high of 0.048 ppm) and arsenic (high of 185 ppm) were intercepted within the target stratigraphy associated with sericitic alteration and quartz veining.

Revival Gold’s 2020 and 2021 drilling leaves the southern extension of the Coiner Fault System untested and worthy of further exploration. An additional program of field mapping, infill geophysics, and scout drilling, is being prepared to further evaluate the structural corridor south of Joss.

Revival Gold Intersects Oxidized Mineralizationin Previously Untested Targets at Beartrack-Arnett

Toronto, ON – December 19th, 2023 – Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG, OTCQX: RVLGF) (“Revival Gold” or the “Company”), is pleased to report results from the final eight core holes completed in connection with the Company’s 2023 exploration campaign at the Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project (“Beartrack-Arnett” or the “Project”) located in Idaho, USA. Each of the eight holes released today was drilled in the broader Haidee deposit area (see Figure 1 below) and intersected above cut-off grades in near-surface oxide gold mineralization.

Highlights

  • 0.37 g/t gold over 22.6 meters1 in hole AC23-109D in near-surface oxide gold mineralization at the previously untested Ridge target, located approximately 1,000 meters northwest of the Haidee deposit.
  • 0.36 g/t gold over 9.0 meters1 in hole AC23-118D in near-surface oxide gold mineralization at another previously untested target at Midlands, located approximately 400 meters southeast of the Haidee deposit.
  • 0.49 g/t gold over 24.3 meters2 and 1.41 g/t gold over 5.2 meters2 in AC23-119D up-dip of the current Haidee deposit.
  • 0.62 g/t gold over 17.8 meters1 in AC23-113DA and 0.40 g/t gold over 12.6 meters1 and 0.31 g/t gold over 32.9 meters1 in AC23-107D down-dip on the current Haidee deposit.

1 True width is estimated to be 50% to 70% of drilled width. 2 True width is unknown.

Drill holes AC23-109D and AC23-118D include significant intersections of oxide gold mineralization discovered under areas of post-mineralization cover targeted based on the results of a surface geochemical survey, geophysics, and mapping. Hole AC23-109D is particularly intriguing as it was stopped short of its intended target due to operational issues. Mineralization occurs in a brecciated quartzite, thought to overlay the rocks that host mineralization in the Haidee deposit area.

“Today’s results from Ridge and Midland, together with those from up-dip and down-dip of the current Haidee deposit, validate our enthusiasm for the broader Haidee area and confirm the potential for continued growth in near-surface oxide gold resources at Beartrack-Arnett”, said Hugh Agro, President & CEO.

Revival Gold’s 2023 drilling at Beartrack-Arnett consisted of eighteen core drill holes totaling 3,350 meters. Twelve core holes were drilled in and around the Haidee deposit. Six core holes were drilled in three new target areas (Roman’s Trench, Midlands, and Ridge). Results for the first ten holes (Roman’s Trench and Haidee) were released on September 27th, 2023, and October 31st, 2023. Today’s release presents the remaining drill holes at Haidee as well as those at Midlands and Ridge. Figure 2 provides a plan drawing of the Haidee and Midlands target areas. Figure 3 provides a conceptual cross-section through the Haidee-Ridge target area.

Detailed Results

1 True width for all holes but AC23-119D and AC23-120D is estimated to be 50% to 70% of drilled width.
2 AC23-107D: 27% recovery from 0.7 meters to 1.7 meters, 42% recovery from 1.7 meters to 2.3 meters, and 50% recovery from 3.7 meters to 4.1 meters.
3 AC23-119D and AC23-120D: Recovery in these holes was poor and the true thickness of mineralization is unknown.
