Fabled Silver Gold Corp Reports Termination of Santa Maria Option Agreement, Binding Letter of Intent for Acquisition of Mecatona Property, Termination of Private Placement , Resignation of Directors and Appointment of New Director

Fabled Silver Gold Corp. ("Fabled" or the "Company") (TSXV:FCO)(OTCQB:FBSGF)(FSE:7NQ) wishes to announce that its option agreement (the "Santa Maria Option Agreement") with Golden Minerals Company ("GMC") (NYSE American and TSX: AUMN) with respect to the Santa Maria Project will be terminated as of February 22, 2023

In addition the Company announces that on February 17, 2023 it entered into a binding letter of intent (the "Mecatona Agreement") with an arm's length vendor, Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN) ("Kootenay" or the "Vendor") to acquire the Mecatona Property (the "Mecatona Property") located in Chihuahua, Mexico (the "Proposed Transaction").

Fabled also announces that it has terminated its previously announced private placement, as described in its news release dated January 12, 2023 (the "Private Placement"). No subscriptions were closed pursuant to the Private Placement and therefore no cash sums were raised or securities issued.

Peter Hawley, President and CEO comments; "The planned use of the proceeds of the Private Placement included definition drilling on the Santa Maria Project. Current investment interest allowed either for making required property payments under the Santa Maria Option Agreement or putting the money in the ground by drilling, not both. Unfortunately an amendment to the property payment schedule under the Santa Maria Option Agreement was not able to be reached. This being the case the Company decided to cancel Private Placement.

In early 2022, the Company's Mexico team began a regional review and exploration program applying what was learned on the Santa Maria Project in respect to structures, breccias and hydrothermal and epithermal mineralization. This led the Company to the Mecatona Property for which we are delighted to have made an agreement to acquire."

Termination of Santa Maria Option Agreement

Following a review process by the Company's board of directors, and consultation with GMC, the Company has determined that is unable to make the required payments under the Santa Maria Option Agreement. This is due to the Company's current cash position and the unavailability of suitable financing to continue to make such payments and conduct sufficient work on the Santa Maria Project that would justify the Company's continued interest therein. The Company has received a notice of default from GMC and the Company expects the Agreement will be terminated as of February 22, 2023.

The Company would like to thank GMC for its cooperation during the period of the Santa Maria Option Agreement and expects to work with GMC to ensure an orderly termination of the relationship between the two companies.

Letter of Intent

Pursuant to the Mecatona Agreement, in consideration for acquiring 100% of the Mecatona Property Fabled expects to issue to the Vendor, on closing of the Proposed Transaction, two million (2,000,000) common shares of Fabled.

Fabled will also make a periodic payment of US$10,000 to the Vendor on January 13 and July 13, of each year (the "Periodic Payments") and upon commencement of commercial production pay to the Vendor the greater of US$15,000 or a 2% net smelter royalty ("NSR"), each paid on a quarterly basis.

No finders fee is payable in respect of the Proposed Transaction.

The Proposed Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among other things, receipt of requisite approvals from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV").

Fabled expects the Proposed Transaction to be a Fundamental Acquisition (as such term is defined in the policies of the TSXV) and therefore expects the common shares of Fabled to be halted until completion of the Proposed Transaction.

Information regarding the Mecatona Property

The Mecatona Property consists of 2,857 hectares in the Parral Silver Mining District, located south of the City of Parral in Chihuahua State, Mexico and 7 kilometers southeast of the Company's past Santa Maria Project.

Previous work conducted on the Mecatona Property by Kootenay in 2018 (see Kootenay's news release dated October 29, 2018) consisted of 78 samples taken, which include both channel and grab samples, reported silver values ranging from trace to a high of 735 g/t and gold values ranging from trace to 6.94 g/t. Appreciable base metals are also present within the mineralized system with lead and zinc values returning up to 3.5% and 8.0%, respectively. See Figure 1.

Figure 1: Property location Map

Fabled Silver Gold Corp, Tuesday, February 21, 2023, Press release picture

The Property covers a silver-dominant epithermal mineral system hosted in veins and breccias. One mineralized structure had been traced for +1.7 kilometer by Kootenay and remains open along strike. Early stages of exploration by Kootenay also outlined other anomalous areas including a northeast trending zone outlined by stockworks and quartz veinlets within an 80 meter-wide argillic alteration zone.

A second phase reconnaissance exploration program completed at the Mecatona Property in 2019 by Kootenay (see Kootenay's news release dated Match 20, 2019) was successful in the discovery of a previously unknown silver, copper, gold zone hosted in pervasive skarn-altered Lower Cretaceous turbidites of the Mezcalera Group.

Silver, copper, gold and anomalous cobalt mineralization is distributed in a 200 by 400 meter zone with apparent uniformity. Highlights of the program include 51 samples (29 chips averaging 1 meter in length, 17 grabs and 5 dump) taken across the new zone returning silver values averaging 110 g/t with a high of 486 g/t silver.

Additional highlights of all samples taken within the mineralized zone include 12 of 51 samples grading > 100 g/t silver with 86% returning values greater than 20 g/t silver. Furthermore, the average of all 51 samples assayed for copper was 1.7% with 30 samples returning greater than 1%.

Fabled's initial due diligence work during 2022 and 2023 has been directed to systematic sampling of all old workings at the Mecatona Property to establish the apparent continuity of mineralization.

Fabled's initial exploration plan at the Mecatona Property (assuming completion of the Proposed Transaction) is expected to consist of mapping out and defining the mineralized structures, ground geophysics and LiDAR surveys. Although the Mecatona Property hosts several small to medium sized old workings there is no evidence of any modern exploration including drilling.

Based on the length of mineralized structures, adjacent producing properties and the context within the Parral-San Francisco Del Oro-Santa Barbara mineral camps, the Company believes the Mecatona Property has the potential to host high grade vein type silver deposits.

Regionally, the Property is part of the larger, productive Parral Silver District that includes the Santa Barbara and San Francisco del Oro mining facilities, Endeavour Silver's Veta Colorada and La Pamilla projects and Kootenay's La Cigarra deposit.

Resignation and Appointment of Directors

The Company also reports the resignations of David W. Smalley as Chairman and Director of the Company and Roger Scammell as Director of the Company effective February 16 and February 17, 2023, respectively. Mr. Smalley and Mr. Scammell have each resigned in order to concentrate on other opportunities.

Lode Gold: 2024 Year-End Review and 2025 Outlook

Lode Gold: 2024 Year-End Review and 2025 Outlook

Lode Gold Resources Inc. (TSXV: LOD) (OTCQB: SBMIF) ("Lode Gold " or the "Company") is pleased to provide a year-end update.

Dear Investors,

I am excited to update you on our progress since I took over as CEO less than a year ago, just before Christmas in December 2023. With the support of the board, key shareholders, and the dedicated Lode Gold team, we have raised $6M since March 2024 and completed numerous tasks to reorganize the Company. These efforts have positioned us for future success and growth, and I am grateful for the continued support and confidence you have shown in our vision.

Strategy: Create Two Pure Play Companies to Unlock Value and Attract New Investors

Last year, around this time, I met with bankers to discuss how we plan to unlock value by spinning out the Company's assets to create two pure-play companies. This strategy resonated with many as Lode Gold has key assets situated in highly prospective mining regions in Canada and the United States. This initiative immediately creates two $7M companies from one $7M entity, thereby generating accretive value for shareholders.

Focus on Intrinsic Asset Value vs Market Cap: Do some small-cap stocks outperform large-cap investments in the long run?

Clifford Asness, who played a key role in building Goldman Sachs' Global Alpha before founding AQR, and now manages over $33 billion in assets, published a whitepaper that challenged the Efficient Market Theory. It stipulated that value may be factored into price with large-cap companies, but it may not be the case with small-cap stocks1. It states that with small or micro-cap stocks, the Less-Efficient-Market Hypothesis often holds. Why? The market is inherently inefficient due to a fragmented shareholder base and a lack of distribution, awareness and liquidity. As such, if capital is patient, investing in a small-cap stock may result in a higher return on investment in the long run compared to a large-cap stock.

In the case of Lode Gold, the intrinsic value, verified with a third-party NI 43-101 technical report, has an NPV USD $370M, yet the market cap trades at a fraction of the real value. Notwithstanding, a planned spin-out transaction valued at an additional $7.65M (pre-money value to current Lode Gold shareholders) has already obtained conditional approval.

This is a value proposition, validated by smart money: strategic investors and institutional shareholders; a total of four own approximately 60%. Intrigued by the potential of this undervalued play, I accepted the challenge of leading its turnaround and growth.

Near-Term: Gold Orogen spin out to unlock value for shareholders

The company has three key orogenic assets, with proven gold endowment.

To unlock value for shareholders; immediately we are spinning out the Canadian assets into a new company, Gold Orogen. Each Lode Gold shareholder will get shares of Gold Orogen; via a tax-efficient spin-out.

Additionally, a $3M raise has been completed at Gold Orogen, based on a $7.65M pre-money valuation. The current valuation for Lode Gold, the parent company, is at $7M. We are topping up with an additional $1.5M to ensure a $4.5M investment program for 2025 at Gold Orogen; as such both the assets in Yukon and NB will be drilled in the upcoming exploration season in the new year. Post-money, Gold Orogen will be at $12M+.

A gold asset on the Mother Lode Belt with MRE: 1 (M&I) + 2 (Inferred) Moz Au and a 2023 PEA: USD $370M (NPV 5%) will remain in the parent co, Lode Gold. Lode Gold intends to pursue a high grade underground mine opportunity. This project sits on 100% privately owned patented land where the mining license was suspended in 1942 due to the war effort.

Spin Out Unlocks Shareholder Value: Confirmed gold endowment and RIRGS on Tombstone Belt

The spin-out will result in the formation of two pure-play companies, each focused on specific areas of exploration in Canada and the US.

Company 1: Spin Co - Gold Orogen

Asset 1:

  • 27 km strike, 99.5 km2in Yukon, prolific Tombstone Belt (Snowline, 3 Aces, Sitka Gold)
  • Total of four Reduced Intrusive Targets (RIRGS)

Asset 2:

  • New Brunswick: Created one of the largest land packages (420 km2)
  • Geological analogue to New Found Gold, Galway, Calibre Mining and Puma-Kinross
  • Confirmed gold endowment

Company 2: Parent - Lode Gold

Lode Gold is the first company to evaluate this project from an underground perspective.

  • Brownfield, previously mined at 8 g/t in the 1940's.
  • 4 km strike on the 190 km mineralized Mother Lode Belt: 50,000,000 oz produced
  • 100% owned private and patented land: 3,351 acres, Mariposa County
  • California: 700 permitted mines; 14 gold
  • Mine suspended in 1942 due to gold prohibition in WWII
  • Target: 2 Moz underground 5 g/t Au
  • Typical Orogenic Deposit with Structural Controls
  • 3 Step-Out Holes hit structure (up to 1,200 m)
  • 2 nearby mines were up to 1,800 m deep at 13 g/t
  • 43,000 m drilled with 23 km of underground workings
  • 11% of the veins (2 of 7 deposits) exploited; mostly in the first 250 m
  • 2023 MRE: 1 Moz (M&I) + 2 Moz (Inferred)
  • 2023 PEA at USD $2,000/oz Au: After-tax NPV (5%) USD $370M, 31% IRR, 11 years LOM
  • Close to road, rail, power, water

Milestones Achieved in 2024:

1. Executed Spin Out Plan

  • Received conditional acceptance from the TSXV for the spinout transaction

2. Improved Capital Structure

  • Lode Gold added two additional key institutional and strategic shareholders
  • For $3M, a 19.9% strategic joint venture partner with strong technical expertise, was added to the new Spin Co
  • Tight share structure: 10:1 consolidation. About 40.000,000 shares outstanding for both companies

3. Cleaned Up Balance Sheet

  • Converted a secured debt holder to be the second-largest shareholder
  • Repaid shareholder working capital loan
  • Resolved a legacy lawsuit and eliminated a $1.6M liability

4. Enhanced Value of Assets in Yukon, New Brunswick and California

  • New Brunswick:
    • Created one of the largest land packages in the province, potentially a district play
    • Completed comprehensive geophysics and soil sampling to define drill targets
  • Yukon:
    • Identified four RIRGS targets for exploration work in 2025
    • Confirmed RIRGS at WIN; high bismuth : gold ratio, gold-bearing sheeted quartz veins, hosted in hornfels
  • California:
    • The first to review the project from an underground perspective
    • Completed Geological Model: 11% of the veins exploited, in 2 out of 7 deposits. Most extraction in the first 250 m. 3 step-out holes at depth, mineralized and hit structure, a typical orogenic deposit
    • Commissioned NI 43-101 to update the 2023 MRE

5. Strengthening the Lode Gold Team

  • Enhanced bench strength by adding key personnel to the technical and marketing teams, visit our website to view their full bios (lode-gold.com)
  • Addition of Martin Stratte, Lode Gold's former Director of the Board, to our Advisory Team. He was previously on the permitting team at Castle Mountain, Equinox Gold (2018-2021). The project was acquired for $200 million in 2018, and it was permitted in 2021

Upcoming Catalysts in 2025

  • Spin Co: Shareholders get shares of a new company
  • Drilling to investigate 4 RIRGS reduced intrusive targets in Yukon Tombstone Belt, 200 km from Snowline
  • Drilling in New Brunswick assets upon systematic exploration: geophysics, soil sampling, mapping, geochemistry
  • California: Revised NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate (updating 2023 MRE and investigating high grade underground potential)
  • California: Evaluate reactivating a previous mine, where the license was suspended during WWII

Invest in One Company, Get Shares of Two Companies: Optionality on three key assets

Investing in Lode Gold presents an exciting opportunity for shareholders to benefit from an advanced gold exploration project and a forthcoming spinoff with two high-value assets. This strategic move is aimed at unlocking maximum value for investors, who will gain exposure to three highly prospective gold assets through shares in two separate companies.

Wishing you a season filled with joy and prosperity.

Yours truly,

Wendy T. Chan. CEO & Director

About Lode Gold

Lode Gold (TSXV: LOD) is an exploration and development company with projects in highly prospective and safe mining jurisdictions in Canada and the United States.

In Canada, its Golden Culvert and WIN Projects in Yukon, covering 99.5 km2 across a 27-km strike length, are situated in a district-scale, high grade gold mineralized trend within the southern portion of the Tombstone Gold Belt. A total of four RIRGS targets have been confirmed on the property. A NI 43-101 technical report has been completed in May 2024.

In New Brunswick, Lode Gold has created one of the largest land packages with its Acadian Gold JV Co; consisting of an area that spans 420 km2 and a 42 km strike. McIntyre Brook covers 111 km2 and a 17-km strike in the emerging Appalachian/Iapetus Gold Belt; it is hosted by orogenic rocks of similar age and structure as New Found Gold's Queensway Project. Riley Brook is a 309 km2 package covering a 25 km strike of Wapske formation with its numerous felsic units. A NI 43-101 technical report has been completed in August 2024.

In the United States, the Company is advancing its Fremont Gold project. This is a brownfield project with over 43,000 m drilled and 23 km of underground workings. It was previously mined at 8 g/t Au in the 1940's.

Mining was halted in 1942 due the gold prohibition in WWII just as it was ramping up production. Unlike typical brownfield projects that are mined out; only 11% of the veins - in 2 out of 7 deposits have been exploited. The Company is the first owner to investigate an underground high grade mine potential at Fremont.

The project is located on 3,351 acres of private and patented land in Mariposa County. The asset is a 4 km strike on the prolific 190 km Mother Lode Gold Belt, California that produced over 50,000,000 oz of gold and is instrumental in the creation of the towns, the businesses and infrastructure in the 1800s gold rush. It is 1.5 hours from Fresno, California. The property has year-round road access and is close to airports and rail.

Previously, in March 2023 the company completed an NI 43 101 Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA"). Project Valuation has an after-tax NPV (5%) of USD $370M at $2000 2 /oz gold, IRR 31% and an 11-year LOM, averaging 118,000 oz per year. At $1,750 /oz gold, NPV (5%) is $217M. The project hosts an NI 43-101 resource of 1.16 Moz at 1.90 g/t Au within 19.0 MT Indicated and 2.02 Moz at 2.22 g/t Au within 28.3 MT Inferred. The MRE evaluates only 1.4 km of the 4 km strike of Fremont property. Three step-out holes at depth (up to 1200 m) hit structure and were mineralized.

All NI 43-101 technical reports are available on the Company's profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and the Company's website (www.lode-gold.com).
