Eastside Gold-Silver Project Demonstrates Growth Potential

TONOPAH, NV – A2Gold Corp. reported on three recently completed core drill holes at its Eastside Gold–Silver Project located near the town of Tonopah, Nevada. The results continue to demonstrate the scale, continuity, and resource growth potential of the Eastside mineral system, strengthening confidence as the Company finalizes targets for its 18,000-metre RC drill program, set to begin on or around January 19.
Hole ES-331 intersected 2.9 g/t Au and 9.8 g/t Ag over 20 metres (starting at 430m), including 4.9 g/t Au and 12.1 g/t Ag over 10.7 metres (from 439 meters). In addition, 2.3 g/t Au and 6.3 g/t Ag over 4.6 metres (from 458 metres) and 3.2 g/t Au over 4.6 metres (from 474 metres). Hole ES-337 deviated by approximately 70 metres from the target and intersected 1.9 g/t Au over 3.0 metres (from 426.7 metres). Hole ES-338 intersected 1.14 g/t Au and 16.3 g/t Ag over 16.8 metres (from 352 metres), including 5.0 g/t Au and 26.4 g/t Ag over 3.1 metres (from 358 metres).
Gold and silver mineralization was extended down to 480 metres vertical depth (approximately 70 metres deeper than previously known mineralization in the 2021 program) with 3.25 g/t Au and 3.37 g/t Ag over 4.6m ending at 478m from surface.  ES-331 was drilled vertical, ES-337 was drilled with a 65-degree angle and ES-338 was drilled with a 60-degree angle.   True thickness and widths are not known at this stage.
The drill holes were designed to test mineralization continuity and grade distribution within the Eastside structural corridor. Broad mineralized intervals with internal higher-grade zones reinforce the interpretation of a laterally extensive and vertically continuous gold–silver system. These results will continue to de-risk the project and further support the Company’s strategy of resource expansion through systematic in-fill and step-out drilling.
Peter Gianulis, CEO, said, “These drill results represent another important step in demonstrating the scale and quality of the Eastside system. The drill program was to test the vertical extensions beyond the 2021 drill program. Hole ES-331 was an exceptional hole and deepened known mineralization down a further 70 metres from our previously deepest hole. We continue to see strong gold and silver mineralization across multiple zones, with thicknesses and grades that are highly supportive of future resource growth. These results will be a key input into our upcoming NI 43-101 mineral resource update expected in early 2026 and have significantly improved our confidence as we finalize targets for our upcoming 18,000-metre RC drill program.
The upcoming RC program will focus on three core objectives: in-fill drilling at McIntosh and Castle to connect and strengthen existing sub-zones; step-out drilling at both areas to expand the mineralized footprint; and testing high-priority exploration targets generated from our recently completed, project-wide geophysics program. We believe this work positions Eastside as a compelling resource growth story with meaningful upside for shareholders.”
