A2Gold Corp. has intersected 0.23 g/t gold over 65.5 metres from hole ES-347 at the McIntosh Target, discovering a new zone of mineralization approximately 370 metres southwest of the current resource at the Eastside Gold-Silver Project in Esmeralda County, Nevada.

The reverse circulation drill program also returned 0.20 g/t gold over 32.0 metres from hole ES-342, extending known McIntosh mineralization by approximately 86 metres to the southeast. Hole ES-347 represents the first drill test targeting a 1.5-kilometre-long magnetic low anomaly oriented north to northwest. Mineralization in both holes occurs along the margins of magnetic low anomalies, a geological relationship that mirrors the existing McIntosh resource.

A2Gold completed a three-hole diamond core program totaling 1,680 metres at the McIntosh Zone in October 2025 to test vertical and structural extensions of the high-grade zone. Following that work, the company expanded its planned drilling across the project to 30,000 metres in January 2026.

A2Gold is currently advancing a 2,500-metre diamond core drilling program at Eastside to support an updated mineral resource estimate prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101.

“The Phase 1 South McIntosh program accomplished two important objectives: it extended mineralization beyond the existing resource boundary and identified gold mineralization associated with a previously untested geophysical target southwest of McIntosh. While additional drilling will be required to understand the scale and continuity of this new zone, the results provide useful confirmation that the magnetic features surrounding McIntosh can help us identify additional mineralized structures. This work is contributing to our broader targeting strategy across the Eastside district.”
