Gold Reserve Commits US$1 Million to Support Earthquake Relief Efforts in Venezuela

Gold Reserve Ltd. ("Gold Reserve" or the "Company") (TSX-V: GRZ, BSX: GRZ.BH, OTCQX: GDRZF) today announced it will donate US$1 million to support emergency relief and recovery efforts following the catastrophic earthquakes that struck Venezuela on June 24, 2026.

Gold Reserve is coordinating its donations through the U.S. embassy, in consultation with Venezuelan authorities, to help ensure that funds reach the appropriate communities most affected by the disaster.

Paul Rivett, Vice Chair of Gold Reserve, commented, "Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the devastating earthquakes, and with the families who have lost so much. Venezuela and its people have been part of Gold Reserve's story for more than three decades, and standing with them in this moment is something we feel a deep responsibility to do. We will ensure this contribution helps bring urgently needed relief to those who need it most. We are hopeful that the international community, particularly the business community, rallies to support Venezuelans at this difficult time."

Gold Reserve has also been moved by its shareholders, directors and employees who have expressed their concern and desire to help. Gold Reserve invites those who wish to contribute financial aid to reach out to the Company at investorrelations@goldreserve.bm . The Company will provide further details in the coming days on how to offer support and will consider matching such donations.
