Fortitude Gold Corp. returned multiple wide, high-grade gold intercepts from the Roosevelt target at its East Camp Douglas property in Mineral County, Nevada, highlighted by hole ECDRC-371 intersecting 1.52 meters grading 13.20 grams per tonne gold within a wider 28.96-meter interval grading 2.07 grams per tonne gold.

Additional highlight results from the reverse circulation drill program include hole ECDRC-267, which yielded 4.57 meters grading 4.79 grams per tonne gold inside an 18.29-meter intercept grading 1.48 grams per tonne gold. Hole ECDRC-313 returned 1.52 meters grading 5.94 grams per tonne gold within a 12.19-meter interval grading 2.00 grams per tonne gold.

The Roosevelt target sits approximately 400 meters north of the White Rock West target on the northern end of the district. The intercept bridges mineralization between the Triumph and White Rock West target areas. Fortitude Gold currently operates three exploration drills across the property.

Exploration at the property is backed by a joint venture agreement with Hawthorne Land & Minerals, LLC, structured with Fortitude contributing the East Camp Douglas property and Hawthorne contributing a total of $40 million for exploration and development, giving Fortitude a 60 percent ownership interest.

The technical team is using the ongoing drilling to build toward a targeted initial resource in the northern area of the property. Fortitude Gold anticipates receiving the Plan of Operation for Exploration for the property in the fourth quarter of 2026, which would provide additional drill pad disturbance to further delineate the gold-bearing structural corridor.

"Allan and his exploration team continue to do an exceptional job intercepting high grade gold, of which many intercepts are impressive widths from the limited areas we have permission to drill," stated Fortitude Gold's CEO and President, Mr. Jason Reid. "We are very excited to obtain the Plan of Operations for Exploration at East Camp. Once regulatory restrictions are lifted, we plan to aggressively drill to expand known areas of gold mineralization as well as drill additional highly prospective areas, all with the goal to expedite deposit discoveries."

Fortitude Gold holds its production assets through its Nevada Mining Unit, which consists of eight high-grade gold properties anchored by the Isabella Pearl and County Line projects in Mineral and Nye counties.
