(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, BC TheNewswire - September 16, 2025 Element79 Gold Corp (CSE:ELEM,OTC:ELMGF) (FSE:7YS0) (OTC:ELMGF) (the "Company" or "Element79") is pleased to announce that it has secured a two-year extension of its drilling permit for its 100%-owned Gold Mountain Project (formerly known as Long Peak), located along the prolific Battle Mountain trend in Nevada, USA.

Advancing Nevada Exploration Strategy

The Gold Mountain Project is a cornerstone of Element79's Nevada portfolio. Historical work and technical studies have highlighted drill-ready targets that will be central to the Company's exploration focus over the next two years. With the permit extension now secured, Element79 can move forward confidently with its development strategy in one of the world's most productive gold jurisdictions.

"Securing this two-year permit extension is a crucial step in ensuring continuity of our exploration strategy at Gold Mountain," commented Michale Smith, CEO of Element79 Gold. "We are now positioned to execute on our drill programs and advance the project toward resource development, with the intent of building long-term value for our shareholders."

About the Gold Mountain Project

The Gold Mountain Project, located along Nevada's Battle Mountain trend, is considered drill-ready with multiple high-priority targets already defined. Previous exploration has identified significant gold mineralization potential, with favorable geology consistent with major deposits in the region. Element79 Gold Corp has recently obtained a 43-101 property of merit technical report, compiling historic data, with completion and filing of the NI 43-101 Technical Report on September 3, 2025. Element79 intends to commence drilling activities under the extended permit to further delineate these targets and unlock the further value in the project.
