Analysts See 'Historic Dislocation' Between Gold Prices and Miner Valuations

USA News Group News Commentary

Issued on behalf of Rua Gold Inc.

USA News Group News Commentary Gold mining stocks are still too cheap according to analysts at JP Morgan . In their latest note, JP Morgan tentatively sees $4,100 per ounce gold prices for 2026, and based on that estimate foresees plenty of value in gold mining shares from larger producers all the way down the chain to small- and mid-cap companies. Analysts at Jefferies still think things are out of balance, pointing to a historic valuation gap, with many gold equities still priced as if bullion were stuck at $2,500 an ounce . As gold rises, other analysts are calling for a mining equities breakout leading to extra attention on miners of all sizes, including Rua Gold Inc. (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF), Great Pacific Gold Corp. (TSXV: GPAC) (OTCQX: FSXLF), 1911 Gold Corporation (TSXV: AUMB) (OTCBB: AUMBF), Fortuna Mining Corp. (NYSE: FSM) (TSX: FVI), and Seabridge Gold (NYSE: SA) (TSX: SEA).

According to analysts at Goldman Sachs , it's the central banks acting as a driving purchasing force behind the current record-breaking gold bull market, accumulating roughly 80 metric tons of gold a month worth ~$8.5 billion at current prices. With all the global uncertainty and turbulence, it's no surprise to analysts like George Milling-Stanley from State Street Global Advisors that gold will continue to make sense for investors for its attributes and potential.

Rua Gold Inc. (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF) is advancing a portfolio of high-grade, district-scale gold projects in New Zealand—an emerging exploration hotspot with deep historical roots and modern infrastructure. The company recently announced new high-grade intercepts from its Cumberland project, including 1 metre at 26.9 g/t gold and another at 16.2 g/t, building on a previously returned 62.2 g/t gold , including a standout prior result of 1 metre at 1,911 g/t gold. These hits confirm the near-surface continuity of the Gallant vein system, which became RUA's first drill-tested target generated via VRIFY's AI-powered targeting platform .

"From the very first drill holes, we intersected significant, wide quartz veins hosting high-grade gold, confirming historical intercepts," said Robert Eckford , CEO of Rua Gold . "This marks an exciting start, validating the effectiveness of the VRIFY AI targeting process and confirming near-surface mineralization with the potential to extend the envelope of known mineralization across a 2km structural zone.. It's a major step forward for our hub-and-spoke strategy in Reefton… The Gallant prospect represents the first VRIFY AI target that we have drilled so far. This structure is traceable on surface for over 600m and remains largely untested along strike and at depth."

Gallant sits just 3 km from the historic Globe Progress mine and features steeply dipping quartz veins up to 14 metres thick. Historic drill data from the area includes 20.7 metres of quartz with gold grades reaching 1,911 g/t near surface—highlighting the potential for a shallow, high-grade resource. RUA has now launched a follow-up program stepping 100 metres to the south, with assays pending.

Beyond Gallant, Rua Gold holds commanding control of the Reefton Goldfield, covering roughly 95% of a district that historically produced more than 2 million ounces of gold at grades between 9 and 50 g/t. The Auld Creek project continues to deliver encouraging results as well, with recent intercepts of 9.0 metres at 5.9 g/t gold equivalent and 1.25 metres at 48.3 g/t. Notably, only two of the four known mineralized shoots are currently included in the working model. Previous drilling has returned 12 metres at 12.2 g/t gold equivalent, including a 2-metre stretch at 54.8 g/t.

Auld Creek also hosts significant antimony mineralization—an increasingly strategic metal trading above US$50,000 per tonne . Surface samples have shown grades above 40% antimony , and drill holes have returned multiple intercepts over 8%. The New Zealand government's early 2025 declaration of antimony as a critical mineral further elevates the project's dual-metal value proposition.

On the North Island, Rua Gold is progressing its Glamorgan project in the Hauraki Goldfield, where a second surface campaign outlined three distinct gold-arsenic anomalies across a 4-kilometre corridor. Rock chip sampling returned up to 43 g/t gold, and CSAMT geophysical surveys identified resistive zones typical of quartz-rich vein systems. Drill access is in the final stages of approval, with targets prioritized through VRIFY's DORA AI engine .

Backed by $5.75 million in capital and led by a leadership team with over $11 billion in past mining exits, Rua Gold is aiming to uncover high-grade discoveries in underexplored terrain. With multiple active programs, AI-guided targeting, and a pipeline of assays and agreements on the horizon, the company is positioning itself as one of New Zealand's most advanced early-stage gold explorers heading into 2025.

In other industry developments and happenings in the market include:

Great Pacific Gold Corp. (TSXV: GPAC) (OTCQX: FSXLF) recently intersected 7.0 metres grading 10.3 g/t gold equivalent (including 2.0 metres at 14.3 g/t AuEq) at its Wild Dog project in Papua New Guinea .

"The first drill results from our Phase 1 drill program at Wild Dog did not disappoint," said Greg McCunn , CEO of Great Pacific Gold . "We now have a drill rig on the ground, a highly experienced technical team, and the infrastructure support in place to explore the potential of this system."

The intercept came from WDG-02, drilled beneath a historic pit, confirming the presence of high-grade sulphide mineralization near surface. The current 2,500-metre drill campaign spans 16 planned holes across a 3-kilometre segment of a 15-kilometre target zone. Assays are pending from WDG-03, and hole WDG-04 is now in progress.

1911 Gold Corporation (TSXV: AUMB) (OTCBB: AUMBF) continues to expand its San Antonio West target at the True North project, returning standout grades such as 1.0 metre at 62.40 g/t gold and 2.1 metres at 8.81 g/t.

"These follow-up holes at the San Antonio West target show evidence of several shear structures and also higher grades as we extend drilling to depth," said Shaun Heinrichs , CEO and President of 1911 Gold . "The results continue to show another parallel ore shoot to the San Antonio Mine vein system, similar to what we are seeing on the San Antonio Southeast target."

The zone, hosted within the historically productive San Antonio gabbro, now shows gold mineralization across three parallel vein systems traced over 500 metres laterally and 260 metres vertically. The program supports the presence of a new ore shoot west of the historic San Antonio Mine, bridging toward the Cartwright resource. With 39 holes drilled to date and a 30,000-metre campaign planned, the company is prioritizing underground access and resource expansion.

Fortuna Mining Corp. (NYSE: FSM) (TSX: FVI) is advancing its Diamba Sud Project with fresh intercepts from the Southern Arc prospect, where drilling returned 13.6 meters at 8.6 g/t gold and 11.8 meters at 9.3 g/t. Infill drilling at nearby deposits also yielded high-grade intervals, such as 113.7 g/t gold over 6.4 meters at Area D and 28.8 meters at 3.0 g/t at Area A.

"Our exploration work at Diamba Sud continues to yield strong results, particularly from areas with limited historical drilling," said Paul Weedon , Senior Vice President of Exploration at Fortuna Mining Corp. "These results further reinforce the project's potential for near-term resource growth."

Exploration remains active across several zones, including Moungoundi and Western Splay, where mineralization appears open along strike and at depth. All results will be included in the next resource update.

Seabridge Gold (NYSE: SA) (TSX: SEA) has begun drilling at Snip North, a new copper-gold porphyry discovery at its Iskut Project in northwest British Columbia .

"Last year's discovery at Snip North has given us clear direction on where to focus to deliver new resources in this year's program," said Rudi Fronk , Chairman and CEO of Seabridge Gold . "We are also targeting the source intrusion for this prospective resource which we expect to be rooted in a district-scale structural trend, named the Bronson Trend."

The company plans to complete 8,000 metres of core drilling using three helicopter-portable rigs, targeting a maiden resource estimate and deeper source intrusions. Exploration will also assess other porphyry prospects within the district-scale Bronson Trend, where recent geophysics and mapping indicate multiple mineralized systems. The $13.4 million program builds on last year's success and reflects Seabridge's broader strategy to uncover large-scale porphyry systems beyond KSM.

RUA GOLD Expands Reefton Drill Program and Provides Strategic Outlook

RUA GOLD Expands Reefton Drill Program and Provides Strategic Outlook

Rua Gold Inc. (TSXV: RUA,OTC:NZAUF) (OTCQB: NZAUF) (WKN: A40QYC) ("Rua Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of an expanded drilling program at its Reefton Project on the South Island of New Zealand, and outlines the strategy for its fully funded 12-month exploration program. 

   

 Highlights: 

 

Robert Eckford, CEO of Rua Gold commented: "We closed Q2 2025 with $14 million in the treasury, placing us in a strong position to execute on our aggressive exploration plan in New Zealand. Over the past month, our Board and Management team have been focused on shaping the Company's strategy to transition us from an explorer to a developer.

With New Zealand's highly supportive permitting regime, our goal is to rapidly build ounces on our balance sheet and enter the "Fast Track Permitting Process" in 2026.

As our gold-antimony resource continues to grow rapidly - and with antimony at the top of every nations' critical minerals lists - the significance of this resource expansion and accelerated permitting is substantial for both Rua Gold and New Zealand"

Reefton Goldfield Exploration Overview

The Reefton Goldfield is an orogenic district that produced 2Moz of gold at grades up to 50g/t up to the early 1900s. Rua Gold has assembled 120,000 hectares within this district that has seen limited drilling in the last 30 years. This goldfield is analogous in age, geology, mineralization style, and geological structure to that of Southern Cross Gold and the Fosterville Gold mine.

Auld Creek: Rua Gold commenced drilling at Auld Creek in December 2024 and has completed ~2,800 metres of drilling. The targeted program aims to add a further 4,000 metres of drilling across four mineralised shoots identified from surface exploration work (Figure 1). Following this, the resource will be refreshed and updated into the 43-101 report.

The Company is targeting an increase of the Auld Creek resource to over 300,000 gold-equivalent ounces by the end of 2025. This target is a global estimate based on current resource surface extension of 350 metres being extended over a 1km on surface at similar depths of 280 metres. Insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource has been completed to date and there is uncertainty if a mineral resource estimate will be delineated, therefore economic decisions should not be made on this target.

Auld Creek is situated between two past producing mines, Globe Progress mine, and the Crushington Group of mines which collectively produced 933,000oz at 14.0g/t Au (Barry 1993).

Cumberland: Initial drilling from Rua Gold confirms the consistency of the near-surface gold mineralization and supports the strong potential of this target. Ongoing drilling is targeting the southern surface extension 100m along strike and at depth. Intensified surface exploration is underway to delineate additional drill targets along the 2.5 km long gold mineralized shear zone.

Additional targets are currently being modelled and surveyed across the Reefton Goldfield, including Caledonia in the north, and Alexander River in the south. Caledonia represents a historical mine recording the highest grade production (9 oz/ton gold) in the Reefton Goldfield. It was abandoned early and represents a shallow development target.

"The first crushing yielded at the rate of 9 oz. per ton, with subsequent crushings averaging about 4 oz. per ton. The ore-shoot had a steep easterly dip, and pitched to the north at about 30°. It had an average length of about 180 ft. and a width of 3 ft." * Henderson 1917.

Alexander River returned historical production of 41Koz @ 26g/t Au, mining ceasing in 1942 due to WWII. Mineralization outcrops over 1.2kms, comprises high-grade quartz reefs and disseminated sulfides; predecessor Siren Gold drilled extensively along the structure, and intersected some exceptionally high-grade zones which remain open at depth (Figure 2 Alexander River long-section schematic).

An Inferred Resource 130koz @ 4.1g/t Au* has potential to develop along strike and at depth, remodeling and further drilling is a priority of the strategic plan.

*NI 43 101 Technical Report on the Reefton Project, New Zealand. Prepared for Rua Gold Inc, 30 October 2024.

Glamorgan Exploration Overview

Glamorgan on the North Island is an exciting new epithermal gold target. Rua Gold has completed extensive surface exploration over the past 12 months as a precursor to drill targeting. Four significant gold-arsenic soil anomalies trending north, north-east and north-northwest strike out individually over 4 kms in length. Drill applications have now been submitted and drilling is expected to commence in Q4 2025.

Results from the work to date indicate the classic features of a major epithermal gold-silver system and are identical to the surface features of neighboring OceanaGold Project, Wharekirauponga, which is currently in New Zealand's Fast Track Permitting process with a decision expected in Q4 2025.

Importantly, Rua Gold's Chief Operating Officer, Simon Henderson was a member of the exploration team that led to the discovery of Wharekirauponga and has more the 25 years working in the region.

"We are pleased to acquire these projects in close proximity to our processing infrastructure. Our key focus is completing study work with the aim of generating a five-year life of mine plan processing through our Black Swan processing plant."

"In addition to the resource at Gordons Dam, these assets complement our current large strategic land holdings in the WA goldfields. We see great potential in this area for further resource growth along with enormous exploration upside."

The Company is focussed on becoming a standalone gold producer by refurbishing and repurposing the Black Swan processing plant into a gold plant with a nominal throughput of 1.5Mtpa. Horizon is undertaking a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) to develop a five-year life of mine plan to feed the plant.

This acquisition is very close to Black Swan and complements the Company's existing extensive tenement portfolio.

Project Summary

The Gordons Project area comprises of 34 granted mining, prospecting and exploration licences covering a mostly contiguous area of approximately 77 km as well as four pending mining and miscellaneous licenses (Figures 1 and 2*). A complete list of the tenements in Appendix E Table 2*.

The Project is located within a prospective Archean Greenstone sequence of lithologies which also hosts the Mulgarrie and Gordon Sirdar Gold Mines (Figure 2*). Several gold prospects and targets at various stages of exploration and development as well as the Gordons Dam Deposit comprise the Gordons Project (Figure 3*). Horizon Minerals is of the opinion that there is potential to identify extensions to mineralisation across numerous gold targets and prospects.

Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE)

Located within the Gordons Dam project area is the Gordons Dam deposit which has a MRE of 365,000t @ 1.7g/t Au for 20,000oz (> 1g/t Au lower cut-off grade) (Figure 3*).

The Gordon's Dam deposit includes mineralisation hosted within laterite, transported cover sediments (paleochannel material) and weathered and fresh bedrock. Primary mineralisation occurs in quartz veins that occur at the margins of pillow basalts intruded by later microgranite/porphyrys.

Mineralisation within the MRE extends from approximately 30m below surface to a current maximum depth of 120m. Zones of mineralisation are associated with a laterally extensive paleochannel at the base of oxidation and at depth into the fresh bedrock with an overall mineralised north-west trend of approximately 320m in strike length. Further detailed information on the Gordons Dam MRE is presented in the Technical Overview section of this announcement.

Acquisition Key Terms

The Company has executed a binding Tenement Sale Agreement ("TSA") to acquire the project areas from Yandal Resources Limited, for a total consideration of A$2.810m.

The A$0.2m refundable cash deposit already been paid, with deferred consideration of A$1.0m in cash and $1.610m in Horizon shares payable at settlement with the shares to be issued at an issue price equal to a 10% discount to the 15 trading day volume weighted average price up to and including the day immediately prior to the date of execution of the TSA The consideration will be funded from existing cash reserves and placement capacity.
