At the Black Pine project (“Black Pine”),

• On August 19, 2025⁶, we reported Phase 5A Column Leach Metallurgical results. Key results include:
  • Consistent Gold Extractions and Leach Performance: Weighted average column leach gold extraction of 80.6%, with individual composites reaching up to 90.8%, demonstrating metallurgical continuity across multiple mineralized zones; all of the Phase 5A composites tested exhibit the typical Black Pine leach result of greater than 80% of the eventual gold extraction achieved in under 10 days.
  • Corroborated Bottle Roll Data: Gold and silver extractions from coarse crush bottle roll tests strongly correlate with column leach results, 78.9% vs 80.6%, respectively, in line with previous metallurgical results.
  • De-risking Project Development: Phase 5A column tests reinforce the suitability of ROM heap leach processing and provide key inputs into the ongoing feasibility study metallurgical model.
  • Expanded Metallurgical Coverage: Phase 5A testing included composites from Back Range and J Zone, areas not previously tested and variability composites infilling previous sampling in the M Zone, Tallman and F zones.
• On August 27, 2025⁷, we announced that sonic drill hole assays confirm the presence of residual, cyanide-soluble gold in the 30 million tonne legacy heap on site at Black Pine.
  • Assay data further indicates residual gold grades supportive of potential economic reprocessing, with individual samples ranging from 0.06 to 1.18 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”), with the highest gold grades occurring near the surface of the heap.
  • Recognizing the potential to remove the legacy heap and process that material economically on the new heap opens significant exploration potential for resource and reserve expansion in the Rangefront Zone, located directly adjacent to the legacy heap.
• On September 4, 2025⁸, we reported report initial reverse circulation assay results from the Rangefront Zone. Key results include:
  • Multiple stacked zones of higher-grade oxide gold mineralization have been confirmed beyond the current Rangefront Resource Pit. Grades and widths are consistent with previous drilling.
  • The near surface high grade zone in the western Rangefront area remains open for expansion, with strong continuity to the northwest toward the heap leach pad and to the east. This is an area previously categorized as waste.
  • New drill results bolstered confidence in converting over 250,000 ounces of gold in mineral resources to mineral reserves currently locked by proximity to the legacy heap leach pad, building on previously released sonic drilling that indicated reprocessing legacy heap material could unlock Reserve Pit design potential.
  • Legacy heap leach pad reprocessing could unlock ~1 square kilometer of new exploration potential and connect Rangefront mineralization to the main Discovery Area.
  • Rangefront remains open in multiple directions and is emerging as a strategic starter pit for future mining operations.
• On September 24, 2025,⁹ we reported Phase 5B metallurgical program results. Key results include:
  • Consistent Gold Extractions and Leach Performance: Weighted average column leach gold extraction of 81.9% at an average head grade of 0.65 parts per million gold, with individual composites ranging from 52% to 94.5%. Phase 5B composites exhibit the typical Black Pine leach result of greater than 80% of the eventual gold extraction achieved in under 10 days.
  • Corroborated Bottle Roll Data: Gold extractions from direct leach coarse crush bottle rolls (P80 of 1.68 millimeters) are aligned with column leach results (P80 of 16.9 millimeters) at 78.4% vs 81.9%, respectively.
  • Confirmed gold recoveries in Primary Mining Phases: Phase 5B testing focused on infill sampling within the primary mining phases of Rangefront and Discovery Zones.
• On October 15, 2025¹⁰ we announced the latest drilling results confirming that the Rangefront Zone at Black Pine continues to expand, with near-surface oxide gold mineralization now exceeding 150 meters wide (north-south) and 200 meters wide (east-west), introducing significant potential changes to mining economics and sequencing strategy. Highlights include:
  • Near-surface, higher-grade mineralization in western Rangefront continues to grow in size to the south, east and northwest, extending toward the historic heap leach pad area.
    • 0.41 grams g/t Au over 41.1 meters in LBP1145 at 45 m below surface
  • Infill and conversion drilling continues to expand mineralization at Rangefront, with strong oxide gold grades and widths consistent with and extending the prior results.
    • East Rangefront: 0.28 g/t Au over 125 meters in hole LBP1136
    • West Rangefront: 0.20 g/t Au over 53.3 meters and 0.92 g/t Au over 35.1 meters in hole LBP1141
    • North Rangefront: 0.37 g/t Au over 71.6 meters in hole LBP1144
• On October 29, 2025¹¹ we announced new high-grade oxide gold drill intercepts at the Discovery Zone. This series of holes in Discovery were planned to increase confidence in the mineralization and metallurgical models in an area previously defined largely by historic drilling. The upper portion of this intercept has confirmed the extension of a previously mined high-grade shoot in the historic B Pit area. Notable intercepts include:
  • 1.53 g/t Au over 85.3 meters, including 5.19 g/t Au over 9.1 meters in LBP1171
  • 1.17 g/t Au over 59.4 meters, including 3.44 g/t Au over 15.2 meters in LBP1155

Peter Shabestari, P.Geo., Vice-President Exploration, Liberty Gold, is the Company's designated Qualified Person for this news release within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and has reviewed and validated that the information contained in the release is accurate.

Quality Assurance – Quality Control
Drill composites were calculated using a cut-off of 0.15 g/t Au. Drill intersections are reported as drilled thicknesses. True widths of the mineralized intervals vary between 30% and 100% of the reported lengths due to varying drill hole orientations but are typically in the range of 50% to 90% of true width. Drill samples were assayed by ALS Limited in Reno, Nevada for gold by Fire Assay of a 30 gram (1 assay ton) charge with an AA finish, or if over 5.0 g/t Au were re-assayed and completed with a gravimetric finish. For these samples, the gravimetric data were utilized in calculating gold intersections. For any samples assaying over 0.10 parts per million an additional cyanide leach analysis is done where the sample is treated with a 0.25% NaCN solution and rolled for an hour. An aliquot of the final leach solution is then centrifuged and analyzed by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy. QA/QC for all drill samples consists of the insertion and continual monitoring of numerous standards and blanks into the sample stream, and the collection of duplicate samples at random intervals within each batch. All holes are also analyzed for a 51 multi-element geochemical suite by ICP-MS. ALS Geochemistry-Reno is ISO 17025:2005 Accredited, with the Elko and Twin Falls prep lab listed on the scope of accreditation.
