Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Scorpio Gold Corp. reports new Phase Two diamond drill results from the Manhattan District Project in Nevada, including step-out holes at the Goldwedge, Gap Zone and Zanzibar Trend target areas. Hole 26MN-109 at Goldwedge intersected multiple mineralized intervals, highlighted by 3.38 g/t gold over 33.31 metres from 138.90 metres, including 6.90 g/t gold over 12.89 metres, and additional intervals such as 9.46 g/t gold over 8.72 metres from 126.00 metres and 2.83 g/t gold over 11.89 metres from 97.08 metres.

The Phase Two program has completed 109 drill holes totaling 31,391 metres, with assays reported for 103 holes totaling 29,156 metres and 6 holes totaling 2,236 metres pending. All 2026 drilling tested within and beyond the Inferred Resource Constraining Pit, targeting mineralization outside the 2025 mineral resource block model. At Manhattan, a maiden mineral resource estimate covers Goldwedge and Manhattan Pit with 18,343,000 tonnes grading 1.26 g/t gold for 740,000 oz contained gold in the inferred category, while a separate historical estimate outlines 1,652,325 tonnes grading 5.89 g/t gold for 303,949 oz across additional areas, which the company does not treat as current.

Filing Explained

Silver review has not changed reported drill results, and the historical resource estimate remains non-current pending confirmatory work.

As a August 11, 2026 Form 6-K, this filing furnishes material information published in the company’s home market and attaches its August 10, 2026 drill-results release.

The current state is ongoing exploration: historic core and pulps are being reviewed for silver, but the company says no silver or gold-equivalent data has been used in any results reported to date. Reported drill intervals therefore remain gold-only.

The historical mineral resource estimate covering Black Mammoth, April Fool, Hooligan, Keystone and Jumbo remains non-current. The company says its assumptions, parameters, estimation methods and quality controls cannot be fully verified; updating it would require confirmatory drilling, modern quality-control sampling, data validation, geological modeling and a new estimate under current standards.

SCORPIO GOLD DRILLS 3.38 G/T GOLD OVER 33.31 METRES FROM 138.90 METRES AT THE GOLDWEDGE TARGET AT MANHATTAN

 

Highlights

Hole 26MN-109 returned, at Goldwedge:

2.83 g/t gold over 11.89 metres (“m”) from 97.08 m and 9.46 g/t gold over 8.72 m from 126.00 m within the Zanzibar Formation.

3.38 g/t gold over 33.31 m from 138.90 m, including 6.90 g/t gold over 12.89 m from 138.90 m within the Gold Hill Formation and Manhattan Caldera Volcanics.

Hole 26MN-114 returned, along the Zanzibar Trend:

15.28 g/t gold over 2.56 m from 94.27 m and 0.98 g/t gold over 23.2 m from 112.13 m, including 5.11 g/t gold over 3.38 m from 112.13 m, within the Gold Hill Formation.

 

August 10, 2026 - Vancouver, British Columbia – Scorpio Gold Corp. (TSX-V: SGN, OTCQB: SRCRF, FSE: RY9) (“Scorpio Gold”, or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results from four step-out holes of the Phase Two drill program at the Manhattan District Project (“Manhattan”), Nevada, USA: 26MN-109, 26MN-111, 26MN-112, and 26MN-114, see Figure 1. The results are tabulated in Table 1 and discussed below. Scorpio Gold has drilled 109 drill holes to date from its Phase Two diamond drilling program, 25MN-011 through 25MN-045, 26MN-046 through 26MN-119, for a grand total of 31,391 m. With the results herein, Scorpio Gold has reported assays on 103 of these (25MN-011 through 25MN-045, 26MN-046 through 26MN-112, and 26MN-114, totalling 29,156 m, and assays are pending from 6 holes (26MN-113, 26MN-115 through 26MN-119), totalling 2,236 m. The pending results will be reported as they become available.

 

In addition to the Phase Two drill program, the Company is reviewing historic core that is available at Manhattan and analyzing any historic core and pulps for silver. This new silver data from historic materials is supplementary to silver data that has been collecting since 2024 on new core drilled by the Company. Silver, or a gold equivalent (“AuEq”), has not been used or included in any results to date. Any new significant results from historic core or pulps will be reported as they become available.

 

"We continue to deliver solid grade hole after hole at Manhattan, and 26MN-109 demonstrates that not only are the Paleozoic rocks hosting mineralization, but the Volcanics of the Manhattan Caldera have mineralization potential, with grades of 3.38 g/t gold over 33.31 metres. While these volcanic units were typically dismissed by previous operators, USGS dating shows the Volcanics were formed well before the mineralization was emplaced, which adds more targets to the Manhattan District.

 

The volcanic contact near Goldwedge is now its own defined target. Hole 26MN-109 is a 50-metre step-out that carried mineralization through four separate intervals, including 2.83 g/t gold over 11.89 metres and 9.46 g/t gold over 8.72 metres and 0.68 g/t gold over 12.62 metres from 177.21 metres entirely within fractured volcanics with vein-hosted mineralization. Testing the Volcanic contact and the ground beyond it is the next step for Goldwedge," said Harrison Pokrandt, VP Exploration for Scorpio Gold.

Goldwedge Results: 

26MN-109: This drill hole contains four significant intervals hosted within Ordovician Zanzibar Formation faulted and brecciated limestones. The first interval of 0.22 g/t gold over 22.25 m from 18.59 m has multiple feeder faults noted through the interval. The second interval of 0.33 g/t gold over 8.63 m from 73.21 m contains carbonaceous fault gouge at the start of the interval with strong brecciation and veining below. The third and fourth intervals of 2.83 g/t gold over 11.89 m from 97.08 m and 9.46 g/t gold over 8.72 m from 126.00 m contain fault breccia’s throughout, with feeder structures within their respective intervals. The headline interval is hosted within Cambrian Gold Hill Formation marbles, to 167.79 m, and Manhattan Caldera volcanics (“Volcanics”) for the remainder of the interval (to 172.21 m). This interval of 3.38 g/t gold over 33.31 m from 138.90 m, including 6.90 g/t gold over 12.89 m from 138.90 m, is strongly faulted and brecciated throughout, with stronger silicification near the top of the interval (Figure 3) and an increase in fault gouge near the bottom. A final interval of 0.68 g/t gold over 12.62 m from 177.21 m sits entirely within strongly fractured Volcanics, with vein-hosted mineralization. See cross-section A to A’ (Figure 4).

Gap Zone Results:

26MN-112: This drill hole contains three intervals within the Cambrian Gold Hill Formation. The first interval of 0.28 g/t gold over 16.46 m from 43.28 m is hosted in veins and breccias within both fine grained clastic meta-sediments (“Muds”) and marble. The later two intervals of 0.26 g/t gold over 8.23 m from 106.68 m and 0.95 g/t gold over 3.2 m from 128.93 m are both hosted within Muds with vein-hosted mineralization.

 

Zanzibar Trend Results:

26MN-111: This drill hole contains four intervals within the Cambrian Gold Hill Formation. The first interval of 1.20 g/t gold over 5.43 m from 49.37 m is hosted within silicified marble and transitions to Muds, from 50.02 m to 51.97 m (Figure 5). Strong epithermal breccia and veining is noted at this lithological contact in the middle of the interval. The second interval of 0.92 g/t gold over 5.43 m from 59.19 m is like the first, with marble noted until 59.86 m followed by a brecciated gouge fault contact with Muds below. Mineralization is again concentrated at the faulted lithological contact. The later two intervals of 0.42 g/t gold over 10.36 m from 110.34 m and 0.51 g/t gold over 4.57 m from 152.71 m are hosted in strongly silicified Muds. Both intervals contain feeder veins and faults.

 

 

 

 

26MN-114: This drill hole contains six intervals within the Cambrian Gold Hill Formation. The first interval of 0.21 g/t gold over 8.78 m from 64.19 m is vein hosted within Muds and sits directly above a lithological contact with a marble unit. The second interval of 3.80 g/t gold over 0.59 m from 84.80 m is a single sample with mineralization hosted in a fault within marble. The third interval of 15.28 g/t gold over 2.56 m from 94.27 m is hosted in breccia and veins within Muds and sits directly below a lithological contact with a marble unit. The fourth and fifth intervals of 0.98 g/t gold over 23.20 m from 112.13 m, including 5.11 g/t gold over 3.38 m from 112.13 m, and 5.50 g/t gold over 1.55 m from 159.90 m are entirely within Muds units. The fourth interval has an increase in brecciation and veining from the above intervals with a subtle increase in clay alteration with depth. The fifth interval is also brecciated with silica-rich shear textures noted near the bottom of the interval above a faulted lithological change. The final interval of 2.00 g/t gold over 4.72 m from 171.76 m is within a brecciated marble unit, with both mid-interval and end of interval gouge faults concentrating mineralization. See cross-section B to B’ (Figure 6).

QA/QC

 

HQ sized diamond drill core samples were cut in halves, then bagged and secured with security tags to ensure integrity during transportation to the Elko, NV, MSALABS facility for preparation. For quality assurance (“QA”), unmarked coarse blanks, unmarked certified reference materials, and requested laboratory duplicates were inserted into the sampling sequence. QA samples were systematically inserted into each batch of samples, amounting to approximately 10% of the run of samples. Samples were analyzed for gold using a two-cycle PhotonAssayTM analysis method (~500 g) of crushed material (70% passing 2 mm). All MSALABS facilities comply with ISO 17025:2017.

 

About the Manhattan District

 

Manhattan, located in the Walker Lane Trend of Nevada, USA, is road accessible and lies approximately 20 kilometers south of the operating Round Mountain Gold Mine (https://www.kinross.com/operations/default.aspx#americas-roundmountain), which has produced more than 15 million ounces of gold. For the first time, the Company has consolidated Manhattan’s past-producing mines under a single entity that holds valuable permitting and water rights. Historically, Manhattan has produced approximately 700,000 ounces of gold from high-grade placer and lode operations dating from the late 1890s through to the mid-2000s.¹ The maiden mineral resource estimate (the “Maiden MRE”) covering the Goldwedge and Manhattan Pit areas of Manhattan is comprised of 18,343,000 tonnes grading 1.26 g/t gold for a total of 740,000 oz contained gold in the inferred category.²

 

 

 

 

A historical mineral resource estimate (the “Historical MRE”) covers the Black Mammoth, April Fool, Hooligan, Keystone, and Jumbo areas of Manhattan and comprises 1,652,325 tonnes grading 5.89 g/t gold for a total of 303,949 oz contained gold.³ The deposit is interpreted as a low-sulfidation, epithermal, gold-rich system situated adjacent to the Tertiary-aged Manhattan caldera in the Southern Toquima Range of Nevada. A “Qualified Person” as defined in National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) has not done sufficient work to make the Historical MRE current, and the Company is not treating the Historical MRE as current.

Information regarding the aforementioned deposits is taken from publicly available sources and technical reports believed to be reliable but has not been independently verified by the Company. The Company encourages readers to exercise appropriate caution when evaluating these data and/or results.

 

Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE): All scientific and technical information relating to Manhattan pertaining to Maiden MRE contained in this news release is derived from the Technical Report dated April 23, 2026 (with an effective date of June 4, 2025) titled “Mineral Resource Estimate and NI 43-101 Technical Report” (the “Technical Report”) prepared by Matthew R. Dumala, P.Eng (BC) of Archer Cathro Geological (US) Ltd., Patrick Loury, M.Sc., CPG (AIPG) of Daniel Kunz & Associates, Annaliese Miller, LG (WA) of Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. and Art Ibrado, PhD, PE (AZ) of Fort Lowell Consulting PPLC. The information contained herein in respect of the Maiden MRE is subject to all of the assumptions, qualifications and procedures set out in the Technical Report and reference should be made to the full text of the Technical Report, a copy of which has been filed with the applicable securities regulators and is available under the Company’s profile on www.sedarplus.ca.

 

Historical MRE: A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to make the Historical MRE current, and the Company is not treating the Historical MRE as current.

 

The Company considers the Historical MRE relevant as it demonstrates the presence of significant gold mineralization across multiple zones within Manhattan; however, its reliability is uncertain because it was prepared prior to the adoption of the current CIM Definition Standards and current QA/QC practices. The Historical MRE provides limited disclosure of assumptions, parameters, estimation methods, cutoff grades, and QA/QC protocols, and therefore these cannot be fully verified by the Company. The categories used in the historical estimate predate, and are not directly comparable to, current CIM Definition Standards, and the Company is not treating the Historical MRE as a current Mineral Resource Estimate. To upgrade and verify the Historical MRE in order to make it a current Mineral Resource Estimate, the Company would be required to undertake confirmatory drilling, modern QA/QC sampling, validation and digitization of historical datasets and updated geological modeling followed by the preparation of a new Mineral Resource Estimate in accordance with CIM Definition Standards and NI 43-101. The Company encourages readers to exercise appropriate caution when evaluating the Historical MRE.

 

All scientific and technical information relating to Manhattan pertaining to the Historical MRE contained in this news release is derived from the Technical Report dated May 1997 titled “Exploration and Pre-Production Mine Development, Manhattan District Project, Nye County” (the “Historical Technical Report”) prepared by New Concept Mining, Inc. The information contained herein in respect of the Historical MRE is subject to all the assumptions, qualifications and procedures set out in the Historical Technical Report and reference should be made to the full text of the Historical Technical Report.
