Revival Gold Intersects 1.4 g/T Oxide Gold Over 44.2 Meters in Shallow Drilling and Extends Mineralization at Mercur

13:30 Uhr  |  GlobeNewswire

TORONTO, Nov. 17, 2025 - Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG, OTCQX: RVLGF) ("Revival Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to provide further results from ongoing drilling at the Company's Mercur Gold Project ("Mercur") in Utah.

Highlights

• Received assay results from eleven drill holes with the following highlight intersections:
  • 1.4 g/T gold over 44.2 meters width in RM25-117
  • 1.0 g/T gold over 24.4 meters width in RM25-120
  • 1.7 g/T gold over 12.9 meters width in RMC25-017
  • 0.9 g/T gold over 24.4 meters width in RM25-113
• RMC25-120 intercept shows resource expansion potential down-dip from the 2025 Mercur Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") pit shell¹.
• Continued confirmation of gold occurrence, grade and leachability with PEA estimates
• Average intercept depth starts at 45 meters downhole, highlighting the shallow nature of the Mercur gold deposit.
• Revival Gold has completed 100 holes and about 10,000 meters of the planned 13,000-meter drilling program.

• Drilling continues with three rigs at Mercur and one at Beartrack-Arnett in Idaho. Additional results are pending.

"This year's drilling at Mercur continues to align with the project's PEA results and we are seeing strong indications of exploration upside beyond the current mine plan", said Hugh Agro, President & CEO. "Mercur is a shallow oxide deposit, with a strike of about 4 kilometers in the Main Mercur area alone. Shallow depths and broad deposit extent translate into lower extraction costs and meaningful mine plan expansion potential."

Mr. Agro continued, "With Mercur's PEA economics estimated at $2,175 gold, and the current consensus long term gold price sitting at about $3,000 per ounce, projects like Mercur - which have the potential to move relatively quickly to production - offer investors significant upside exposure".

Details

Revival Gold has completed 100 holes and about 10,000 meters of this year's planned 13,000-meter drilling program. Figure 1 describes drill hole locations for the eleven holes released today. Figure 2 is a cross section through the Rover area at Main Mercur with drilling intercepts and resource blocks in the background. The figure shows broad alignment of this year's drilling intercepts to the PEA block model. The figure further highlights the intercept of oxidized mineralization in RM25-120 showing resource expansion potential down-dip from the PEA pit shell.

Full drilling results are presented in Table 1. In the program to date, the weighted average fire assay gold grade is 0.73 g/T and the AuCN/AuFA ratio, an indicator of gold leachability, is 83%. These results are generally consistent with the Inferred Mineral Resource and metallurgical models developed in the PEA.

Notes:
¹ True width for all holes is estimated to be 65-100% of drilled width. Numbers may not add up due to rounding.
² Mineralized intercepts calculated based on a 0.17 g/T cutoff grade allowing up to two intervals of internal dilution.
³ 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.
⁴ 2.9 meters of lost material in 126 to 133.2 meters was assigned zero grade for Fire Assay Gold Grade and not included in the AuCN/AuFa Ratio.

The Mercur property includes interests optioned from Barrick Resources (USA) Inc. and others as summarized in the PEA.

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 and quarter-sawn PQ core by fire assay and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) on a 30-gram nominal sample weight (Au-AA23). One quarter of the PQ core samples were submitted for assay, one quarter is kept for sample archive, and one half is preserved for future metallurgical column tests. 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 composites samples from selected drill holes using the ME-MS 41 method.
