Revival Gold Advances Programs At Mercur And Completes Geophysics At Beartrack-Arnett

Toronto, ON – July 23rd, 2024 – Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG, OTCQX: RVLGF) (“Revival Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce good progress with its exploration and development program at the Mercur gold project in Utah, U.S.A. (“Mercur”) and the completion of this summer’s planned geophysical surveys at the Beartrack-Arnett gold project in Idaho, U.S.A. (“Beartrack-Arnett”).

Mercur Program Highlights

Electronic scanning of approximately 1,900 historical Mercur drill logs has been largely completed. This data will be used to further validate the Mercur database and develop a geo-metallurgical model in support of the planned Mercur Preliminary Economic Assessment (“Mercur PEA”).
In connection with the review of legacy data at Mercur, Revival Gold completed assaying on four reverse circulation exploration holes drilled in 2022 that had been left un-assayed by the previous operator. The four holes, totaling about 440 meters, were drilled in the Main Mercur area (see Figure 1 below). Results include drill hole EN086 which intersected 0.91 g/t gold over 25.9 meters drilled width¹.
Column leach metallurgical tests underway in support of the Mercur PEA are proceeding ahead of schedule. The five column tests at half-inch crush are demonstrating faster than expected leach kinetics and full results are expected in September.
Exploration work at Mercur will commence in August with data compilation, field reconnaissance and selective geochemical sampling. Efforts will focus on the stratigraphic section at Mercur to evaluate the favourability of previously underexplored geologic units that host economic gold mineralization.

1 True width is estimated to be greater than 70% of drilled width.

Beartrack-Arnett Geophysical Survey Highlights

A 42-line-km gradient-induced-polarization ground geophysical survey has been completed in the Leesburg Basin to help refine Revival Gold’s understanding of structural targets (including the Sharkey target area) covered by post-mineral cover south of Joss.
A 47-line-km magnetics ground geophysical survey has been completed over the Ridge and Shenon Gulch targets in the Arnett area to help define potential structural controls on mineralization in the area.
Data processing and interpretation is in process. Survey locations are illustrated in Figure 2 below.

“Revival Gold’s progress with technical programs this year has been encouraging with the Company’s final column leach metallurgical test results at Mercur now expected in September and the Company’s geophysical surveys at Beartrack-Arnett currently being processed to further qualify high value targets for potential future drilling,” said Hugh Agro, President & CEO.

Mercur Drill Results

Samples from four reverse circulation holes drilled in 2022 were submitted to ALS Geochemistry in Elko, Nevada for assay. The holes were drilled but not assayed by the previous operator due to handling issues and funding constraints.

Holes EN085, EN086 and EN087 were drilled in the Marion Hill area. All three drill holes encountered gold mineralization and broadly support the block model used for the current Mineral Resource (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 May 24, 2024, and with an effective date of December 5, 2023). Hole EN084 was drilled in the Mercur Hill area and did not encounter significant mineralization.

Results for drill holes released today are presented in the table below:

Hole Number	Area	Azimuth (deg.)	Dip (deg.)	From (m)	To (m)	Drilled Width¹(m)	Fire Assay Gold Grade (g/t)	AuCN/AuFA Ratio²
EN084	Mercur Hill	0	-90	No Significant Results
EN085	Marion Hill	0	-90	10.7	19.3	7.6	0.60	95%
EN086	Marion Hill	0	-90	13.7	39.6	25.9	0.91	78%
EN087	Marion Hill	0	-90	10.7	13.7	3.0	0.37	96%
				19.8	25.9	6.1	0.98	97%
				33.5	36.6	3.5	0.57	79%

1 Intervals were chosen using a cutoff grade of 0.2 g/t Au. True width is estimated to be greater than 70% of drilled width. Numbers may not add up due to rounding.
2 AuCN/AuFA is the ratio of cyanide soluble gold assay to total gold in fire assay and provides an indication of potential heap leach recoverability for the material sampled.

Recovery from the 2021-2022 drilling program is acceptable, but there are intervals of poor recovery and caving evident from sample weights. Overall, five sample intervals have sufficiently poor recovery as to not provide adequate samples for analysis. Mineralized intervals with poor recovery or evidence of caving are noted in the footnotes to the table above. The four holes were drilled with water for dust suppression but did not encounter groundwater.

QA/QC Program

Quality Assurance/Quality Control consists of the regular insertion of certified reference materials, duplicate samples, and blanks into the sample stream. Sample results are analyzed immediately upon receipt and all discrepancies are investigated. Samples are submitted to the ALS Geochemistry sample preparation facility in Elko, Nevada. Gold analyses are performed at the ALS Geochemistry laboratory in Reno, Nevada or Vancouver, British Columbia, and multi-element geochemical analyses are completed at the ALS Minerals laboratory in Vancouver, British Columbia. ALS Minerals is an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited lab.

Gold assays are determined on reverse circulation drill cuttings by fire assay and AAS on a 30-gram nominal sample weight (Au-AA23). For samples containing greater than 100 ppb Au as determined by Fire Assay, gold content is also determined by cyanide leach with an AAS finish on a nominal 30-gram sample weight (Au-AA13). Multi-element geochemical analyses are completed on selected drill holes using the ME-MS 41M method.
