A2GOLD EXPANDS EASTSIDE LAND POSITION WITH ADDITIONAL CLAIMS FOLLOWING SUCCESSFUL GEOPHYSICAL PROGRAM

A2GOLD EXPANDS EASTSIDE LAND POSITION WITH ADDITIONAL CLAIMS FOLLOWING SUCCESSFUL GEOPHYSICAL PROGRAM

A2Gold Corp. ("A2Gold" or the "Company") (TSXV: AUAU) (OTCQX: AUXXF) (FRA: RR7) is pleased to announce that it has staked an additional 24 unpatented lode mining claims at its 100%-owned Eastside Gold Project ("Eastside" or the "Project") located in Esmeralda County, Nevada, expanding the Company's land position following the results of a geophysical survey completed in November 2025.

The newly staked claims cover approximately 201 hectares (496 acres) immediately adjacent to the existing Eastside claim block and were located to secure highly prospective ground identified during the Company's recent geophysical program, which identified several previously unrecognized anomalies along the eastern and southeastern margins of the known mineralized system.

The claim expansion strengthens A2Gold's control over the broader Eastside mineralized trend and secures additional exploration upside along interpreted structural corridors and possible alteration of bedrock believed to be favorable for oxide gold mineralization typical of the Walker Lane Trend.

Peter Gianulis, CEO of A2Gold, commented: "The results of our 2025 geophysical program highlighted several compelling targets immediately outside our existing claim boundary. Staking these additional claims ensures we maintain control over the broader mineralized system at Eastside and positions the Company to systematically explore these new targets as part of our ongoing exploration strategy."

The newly acquired claims are expected to become a component of the Company's 2026 exploration program, which will focus on:

  • Follow-up geological mapping and surface sampling over the newly staked ground
  • Integration of geophysical data with existing drill and geochemical datasets
  • Drill testing of prioritized targets identified through the geophysical interpretation

Eastside remains A2Gold's flagship project and one of the largest undeveloped gold resources in Nevada's Walker Lane Trend, a prolific mining district that hosts several large gold and silver deposits.
