Q-Gold Resources engages FHB Consulting Services LLC to update the Resource Estimate for Quartz Mountain
TORONTO, July 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Q-Gold Resources Ltd. (TSXV: QGR) ('Q-Gold' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce that it has retained FHB Consulting Services LLC ('FSB Consulting'), a Washington-based geological consulting firm that is independent from the Company, to conduct an updated review and revision of the historical estimate that has not been confirmed by Q-Gold at the later stage mineral exploration project located in south-central Oregon (the 'Quartz Mountain Project') that the Company intends to acquire pursuant to a share exchange agreement dated March 31, 2025 (the 'Acquisition'). For more information about the Acquisition, please see the Company's press release dated April 3, 2025, a copy of which is available under the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
This initiative is expected to entail a comprehensive revision of the previous mineral resource estimates, originally completed by M. Lechner in 2012 and later updated in-house by the vendor of the Quartz Mountain Project, Alamos Gold Inc. ('Alamos'), in 2016, prepared by Marc Jutras, Ginto Consulting Inc.
As part of the review process, the Company anticipates that FHB Consulting will conduct a field visit to the project site in Oregon. The Company expects that the updated resource estimate will incorporate data from boreholes drilled at Crone Hill and Quartz Butte by Alamos in 2015, as well as historical drilling data from earlier exploration campaigns. The current resource estimate for the Quartz Mountain Project is presented in Table 1.

The resource is based on a gold price of $1400/oz, with cut-off grades of 0.21 g/t Oxide and 0.6 g/t Sulphide and 65-80% metallurgical recovery.
Mineral resources for the Quartz Mountain Project are available on the Alamos' website: Alamos Gold – Quartz Mountain Project United States (https://s24.q4cdn.com/779615370/files/doc_downloads/2025/02/Alamos-2024-Reserve-Resource_Final.pdf).
Q-Gold anticipates that this updated assessment will provide a more accurate and current understanding of the mineral resource potential across what the Company believes to be the key target at the Quartz Mountain Project.
Q-Gold remains committed to closing the Acquisition and unlocking the potential of what the Company believes to be a sizeable deposit, leveraging modern exploration techniques to build shareholder value.
Dr. Andreas Rompel, VP Exploration and Chief Operating Officer of Q-Gold, stated: 'We are very pleased to have engaged such a renowned company to review and update the resource for this gold deposit, which we believe holds significant upside potential within Quartz Mountain and the neighbouring Angle's Camp — areas we intend to explore further in the near future.'
About the Existing Quartz Mountain Property
The Quartz Mountain Project is an advanced-stage exploration project located in south-central Oregon. Over the years, approximately 100,000 metres of drilling has been conducted, with the majority of work focused on the Crone Hill and Quartz Butte deposits, which host a measured, indicated and inferred mineral resource. Combined with the Angel's Camp property (which, for certainty, comprises a portion of the Quartz Mountain Project), the project covers a large land package which the Company believes offers significant exploration potential (for more information about the Quartz Mountain Project, please see the Company's press release dated April 3, 2025).

Budget office says Trump's tax law will add $3.4 trillion to deficits, leave 10 million uninsured
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's tax and spending law will add $3.4 trillion to federal deficits through 2034, the Congressional Budget Office reported Monday, a slight increase in the projection that takes into account the final tweaks that Republicans made before getting the legislation over the finish line. More than 10 million people will be uninsured under the law in 2034 because of the law, CBO found, an improvement from an earlier projection that found 11.8 million people losing coverage over the decade. The release of the CBO analysis Monday comes at the end of a grueling legislative fight, but at the start of a longer political struggle to come as the two parties clash over the law's impact on the economy, healthcare and government programs. Republicans are touting the bill as a tax cut for all Americans, yet a recent AP-NORC poll found about two-thirds of U.S. adults expect the new tax law will help the rich as Democrats attack the legislation. The bill Trump signed into law on July 4 extended current tax rates for individuals that were set to expire at the end of this year and temporarily created new tax deductions for tips, overtime and auto interest loans for new vehicles assembled in the U.S. Republicans also used the bill to cut future spending on Medicaid and food assistance, and to phase out certain clean energy tax credits more quickly. Democrats were quick to highlight the CBO's findings. 'Today's report reminds us of something: facts are stubborn and the facts are clear,' said Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer. 'The big, ugly betrayal is a loser for the country and will be a loser for the Republicans." Republicans say the bill was critical to ensure most Americans didn't experience a significant tax increase next year. Trump and Republicans have also insisted that economic growth will exceed the CBO's projections for the next decade, erasing the projected deficits as more revenue comes into the Treasury than anticipated. Nonpartisan fiscal watchdogs also highlighted the CBO's latest projection. Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, said there will be a shorter-term 'sugar high' as stimulus makes its way through the economy. But modelers from across the ideological spectrum agree that any sustained economic changes are likely to be modestly beneficial, or negative. 'And not one serious estimate claims this bill will improve our fiscal situation,' MacGuineas said. 'Rather, positive growth effects are likely to be swamped by the effects of higher debt and interest rates.' The CBO said more than $1 trillion in deficit savings is generated through the health portions of the bill, which includes new work requirements for certain Medicaid beneficiaries in states that expanded the program through the Affordable Care Act. Some late changes on Medicaid were made to the bill to win over holdouts. One of those changes added a $50 billion fund for rural hospitals. __ Associated Press writer Mary Clare Jalonick contributed to this report.

Large US Grid Lacks Capacity for New Data Centers, Watchdog Says
The biggest US grid has no spare supply for new data centers, meaning project developers will need to build their own power plants, according to the system's independent watchdog. 'There is simply no new capacity to meet new loads,' said Joe Bowring, president of Monitoring Analytics, which is the independent watchdog for PJM Interconnection, the grid that extends from Washington to Chicago. 'The solution is to make sure that people who want to build data centers are serious enough about it to bring their own generation.'
