    American Eagle Gold Corp. (TSXV: AE) (" American Eagle " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that it has identified potential carlin-type drill targets at its Golden Gate property that are closer to the surface than initially believed. These new targets have been delineated from the Controlled Source Audio Magnetotelluric ("CSAMT") survey the Company completed in May. The Company also reports that it has begun a 2D seismic survey at Golden Gate, which will be combined with the data from the CSAMT to further refine its drill program in the fall.

    Promising CSAMT Results

    The purpose of this CSAMT survey is to identify resistive units that may represent carbonate rocks that could host favourable Carlin-type mineralization. The results from the CSAMT indicate the presence of highly resistive rocks beginning at 300 metres from the surface in an area that has never been drill tested.

    As a follow-up to the CSAMT survey, the Company is refining these potential drill targets with a two-line seismic survey now laid across the Golden Gate. This seismic survey will be completed in July and combined with the data from an earlier seismic survey undertaken on the Golden Gate property by Barrick Gold Corporation.

    2D seismic surveys are widely used in the oil and gas industry to delineate folding and low-angle structures which are undercover. This exploration method is critical to understanding the deposit structure, allowing American Eagle Gold to delineate higher probability targets.

    Permitting and Drill Program

    The Notice of Intent for drilling will be filed in early August, with permitting expected to be received in early September. The Company is in the process of hiring a drilling contractor for its fall drilling campaign. Future exploration will focus on defining drill targets by analyzing the relationship between the productive structures, geochemical anomalism and possible geophysical signature of buried Carlin-type deposits.

    Closing of the Garden Gate Acquisition Expected Shortly

    As disclosed in the Company's news release dated June 29, 2021 , the Company entered into a lease with option to purchase agreement dated June 28, 2021 , with Pyramid Lake LLC ("Pyramid Lake"), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire Pyramid Lake's interest in Garden Gate in exchange for initial consideration consisting of a cash payment of $25,000 and the issuance of 200,000 common shares of the Company (each, a "Share") as well as the grant of a 3.0% net smelter returns royalty on production from Garden Gate, with American Eagle Gold having the right to buy back one and a half percent (1.5%) at the time of a production decision for $1,000,000 .

    In addition to this initial consideration, the Company has agreed to make advanced royalty payments to Pyramid Lake as follows:

    • a cash payment of $15,000 in the first year of the agreement (in addition to the initial cash payment specified above);
    • cash payments of an aggregate of $30,000 in each of the second and third years of the agreement;
    • cash payments of an aggregate of $34,000 in the fourth and fifth years of the agreement;
    • cash payments of an aggregate of $40,000 in the sixth year of the agreement; and
    • following the sixth year, cash payments each year thereafter in an amount equal to the aggregate cash payments made in the prior year, plus an additional 5%.

    Further, the Company has the right to ultimately purchase the Garden Gate property at any time upon the payment of $2,000,000 in cash and the issuance of 2,000,000 Shares to Pyramid Lake.

    Closing of the American Eagle Gold acquisition of Garden Gate from Pyramid Lake remains subject to receipt of approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
