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).

Lode Gold Closes Second Tranche of Private Placement for Total Financing of $1.2 Million to Initiate Work at the Fremont Mine in California

Lode Gold Closes Second Tranche of Private Placement for Total Financing of $1.2 Million to Initiate Work at the Fremont Mine in California

Lode Gold Resources Inc. (TSXV: LOD) (OTCQB: LODFF) ("Lode Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has closed the second tranche of its non-brokered private placement offering.

Proceeds will be used to advance work at the Fremont Mine in Mariposa, California. This is an advanced-stage exploration and development asset, where recently an NI 43 -101 compliant mineral resource estimate (MRE 2025) was completed with a new geological model that separates vein mineralization from stockwork: 1.34 Moz at 4.4 g/t (3 g/t cut off, average true width: 16.8 m).1

Fremont was previously mined at 10.7 g/t. Only 8% of the total mineral resource, filed at SEDAR+ (April 2025) has been extracted, mostly in the first 250 m. This is a structurally controlled orogenic deposit with excellent continuity. Exploration upside exists as it is open at depth and on strike. Three step-out holes at 1,300 m hit structure and were mineralized.

Upcoming 2025-2026 Catalysts:

  • Rehabilitation of 2 km of the 23 km of underground workings
  • Access to three of the adits, out of a total of 14
  • Channel sampling to upgrade resources to M&I
  • Metallurgy and Recovery Studies
  • Geotechnical work and rock mechanics assessments
  • Underground drilling 3,000 m (to initiate Pre-Feasibility Study) 
  • Completion of Pre-Feasibility Study (underground bulk mining and other optimized methods will be evaluated)

"We had a busy year. We completed corporate restructuring, a joint venture, the creation of a spin-co, and advanced all three of our assets in Yukon, New Brunswick and California. Over the past 12 months, we delivered three technical reports. At Fremont, two pivotal findings stand out: first, mineralization in the stockworks—outside the veins—remains completely untouched when mining was suspended during World War II (1942), when gold was just $35/oz. Second, at a 1 g/t cut-off, we see an impressive average true width of 53 meters," comments Wendy T. Chan, CEO and Director of Lode Gold.

"The 2023 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) indicates positive project economics at a gold price of USD $1,750, based on an annual production rate of 130,000 ounces. In the coming months, we will begin engineering work aimed to develop an optimized mine plan. Our evaluation will focus on: high-grading in early years to optimize economics; increase to produce more than 100,000 ounces per year; and the initiation of small-scale production in the near term to align with the March 2025 Executive Order, which prioritizes critical mineral extraction in the United States."

The Company has raised $390,802 through the issuance of 2,204,457 Units at a price of 18 cents per Unit. Each Unit shall consist of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of 35 cents per common share for a period of three years following the date of closing. The Company may accelerate the expiry date if the shares trade at 65 cents or more for a period of 10 days, including days where no trading occurs. The shares issued are subject to a four-month and one-day hold period.

The Company closed the first tranche of $790,186 (4,389,922 Units) on April 15, 2025. The total amount raised was $1,180,988 (6,594,379 Units).
