Eminent Gold delivers more prospective drilling in Nevada
Eminent Gold (TSXV:EMNT) has completed the third drill core hole on its Hot Springs Range project in Humboldt County, Nevada, an analogous asset to the 50-million-ounce Getchell Trend A preliminary visual assessment indicates geological continuity with previous drilling Eminent Gold is focused on generating shareholder value through exploration in Nevada backed by a leadership team with multiple successes in gold discoveries Eminent Gold stock has added 44.83 per cent year-over-year Eminent Gold (TSXV:EMNT) has completed the third drill core hole on its Hot Springs Range project in Humboldt County, Nevada, an analogous asset to the 50-million-ounce Getchell Trend. The drillhole in question, HSC004, tested gold mineralization in and around the northeast (NE)-trending Otis Fault. HSC002, drilled parallel to the fault only 150 metres away, returned multiple gold zones grading up to 8 grams per ton (g/t), as detailed in news releases on January 16 and February 5, 2025. Visual inspection of HSC004 core shows alteration similar to HSC002, suggesting geological continuity between the drillholes, though assays remain pending, including for drillhole HSC003 testing a northwest-oriented structure. The news follows a $3 million investment in Eminent by major producer Kinross Gold (TSX:K) announced on Monday. Leadership insights 'We are very excited about our ongoing drill program at HSRP, with two holes pending assay results, as we are currently planning our fourth hole,' Paul Sun, Eminent Gold's president and chief executive officer, said in a statement. 'The company is well-financed to continue drilling at HSRP, as well as to drill its inaugural holes at the Celts project.' 'According to Nevada Gold Mines, the NE trending faults at Turquoise Ridge provide the best upside potential for expanding the resource and reserve,' added Dan McCoy, Eminent Gold's chief geologist. 'Hole HSC002 indicates that mineralization associated with the NE trending Otis fault provides us with an analogous geometry. However, hole HSC002 did not cross this structure, whereas hole HSC004 is designed to cross the structure at the same depth as the best gold hits in HSC002. We are pleased with the visual results to date.' About Eminent Gold Eminent Gold is focused on generating shareholder value through exploration in Nevada backed by a leadership team with multiple successes in gold discoveries. Eminent Gold stock (TSXV:EMNT) is up by 3.7 per cent on the news trading at C$0.42 per share as of 12:45 pm ET. The stock has added 44.83 per cent year-over-year.

Eminent Provides Drilling Update at Hot Springs Range Project
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 7, 2025) - Eminent Gold Corp. (TSXV: EMNT) (OTCQB: EMGDF) (FSE: 7AB) ("Eminent" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing drill program at the Hot Springs Range Project ("HSRP") in northern Humboldt County, Nevada, an analogue to the prolific 50-million-ounce Getchell Trend1 (see Figures 1-2 for property and target locations). The Company has successfully completed its third drill core hole, HSC004 (following the early termination of HSC001 at a shallow depth) and is now awaiting assay results for both HSC003 and HSC004. Dan McCoy, Chief Geologist and Director commented: "According to Nevada Gold Mines, the NE trending faults at Turquoise Ridge provide the best upside potential for expanding the resource and reserve4. Hole HSC002 indicates that mineralization associated with the NE trending Otis fault provides us with an analogous geometry. However, Hole HSC002 did not cross this structure, whereas Hole HSC004 is designed to cross the structure at the same depth as the best gold hits in HSC002. We are pleased with the visual results to date." Drilling Update Eminent's recently completed hole, HSC004, was designed to test gold mineralization in and around the northeast (NE)-trending Otis Fault (see Figures 3-5 for plan and section views, as well as hole azimuths and dips). Hole HSC002, drilled parallel to this fault, encountered multiple zones with gold intercepts of up to 8 grams per tonne (g/t), which the company released in news releases dated January 15 and February 5, 2025. HSC004 was designed to cross the Otis Fault at a location approximately 150 meters offset from HSC002, at the same depth. While assay results are pending, an initial visual examination of the core indicates alteration features similar to those observed in HSC002. These observations suggest potential continuity of geological characteristics along the Otis Fault corridor; however, confirmation will require further analytical testing. Eminent is also awaiting the complete assay results from Hole HSC003, which tested a northwest oriented structure. Paul Sun, President and CEO of the Company commented: "We are very excited about our ongoing drill program at HSRP, with two holes pending assay results, as we are currently planning our fourth hole. The Company is well-financed to continue drilling at HSRP, as well as to drill its inaugural holes at the Company's Celts project."

Eminent Begins IP Program at Celts Project in Nevada
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 3, 2025) - Eminent Gold Corp. (TSXV: EMNT) (OTCQB: EMGDF) (FSE: 7AB) (the "Company" or "Eminent") is pleased to announce that it has begun a test geophysical program consisting of two Induced Polarization (IP) lines at its Celts ("Celts") project in Nevada (Figure 1). Eminent believes Celts is a strong exploration analogue to the recent Silicon discovery (3.40 million ounces of indicated and 800,000 ounces of inferred gold resources3). The program will consist of two test lines that will cover the high-grade historical vein on the east side of the property, as well as potential precious metal mineralization under the steam-heated alteration cap (Figure 2). If a significant chargeability-resistivity signal is obtained, additional lines will be conducted around that signal to better define a potentially significant gold-bearing structure. The Company has contracted Zonge International out of its Reno, NV office to perform the work. Zonge is a pioneer in the use of Induced Polarization, which is used to both obtain signals indicating the presence of small amounts of sulfides as well as silicification in the form of either quartz and/or chalcedony1, both of which are typically present in low-sulfidation epithermal gold deposits. IP was used successfully by AngloGold Ashanti at Silicon to identify potential gold bearing zones under a similar barren steam cap: "During October 2018, an orientation Induced Polarization (IP) pole-dipole survey line, ~1.5 km in length, was completed over the core of the Silicon system by Planetary Geophysics that delineated a coincident chargeable-resistive anomaly where mineralization had been intersected."2 Paul Sun, President and CEO of the Company commented: "As we wait with great anticipation for the results from Hole 2, expected in the coming weeks at our Hot Springs Range Project, we are excited to advance our Celts project towards drilling through the initiation of geophysics. Eminent is uniquely positioned with multiple premier gold exploration projects in Nevada that have yet to see significant exploration. Notably, two of the three projects have considerable untested analogues to major mines in Nevada." Dan McCoy, Chief Geologist and Director commented: "We are very excited about our pending results, but also about starting work at Celts using a technique that got AngloGold Ashanti into discovery mode at its 13.2 Moz expanded Silicon Project. This will put Celts in the position to experience inaugural holes in the second half of this year, supporting our goal of exploring a pipeline of new world-class gold opportunities in Nevada as gold continues to perform." About the Celts Gold Project The Celts property was originally identified and staked by Orogen's technical team, the same group responsible for AngloGold Ashanti's recent Silicon discovery, which boasts 3.4 million ounces of indicated gold resources and 800,000 ounces of inferred gold resources3. Following the success at Silicon, AngloGold discovered a more extensive deposit within Orogen's area of interest (AOI), known as Merlin, with an inferred resource of 12.10 million ounces of gold¹. Given the similar geology and regional setting, the Celts Project represents a significant addition to Eminent's exploration portfolio. The Celts Project, encompassing 67 unpatented claims over 560 hectares, is in the prolific Walker Lane in southwest Nevada, approximately thirteen kilometers northeast of the historic town of Goldfields. Orogen has identified a substantial steam cap of approximately 800 square meters at the Celts Project, featuring silica and advanced argillic alteration-characteristics it shares with Silicon. This alteration is situated within a rhyolite dome complex, which is of the same age as rhyolite samples from Silicon5 and intrudes through a thick basalt unit covering much of the property. High-grade gold veins historically mined at the periphery of the property, with grab samples up to 33 grams per tonne (g/t) Au, highlight the potential target zones beneath the rhyolite dome and basalt, which Orogen considers a potential aquiclude (Figure 3). Similar to Silicon, the steam cap at the Celts Project is devoid of gold and other trace elements, as the alteration occurred above the water table. The low-sulfidation gold deposits that often underlie these steam caps form in boiling zones below the water table and require drilling for confirmation. The evidence for such zones at the Celts Project includes the peripheral veins mentioned earlier. Minimal drilling has occurred near these veins, and none beneath the steam cap and basalt outcroppings. To explore these promising targets, Eminent plans a comprehensive surface exploration program at the Celts Project, leveraging geophysical and geochemical techniques proven effective at Silicon and similar deposits. The area around the Celts Project claims has also seen staking activity from Barrick, one of the world's largest gold producers.

Eminent's Remaining Assays from First Completed Drill Hole Hits up to 8 g/t Gold in Getchell Trend Analogue
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 5, 2025) - Eminent Gold Corp. (TSXV: EMNT) (OTCQB: EMGDF) ('the Company' or 'Eminent') is pleased to provide the remaining core assays for its first complete hole (HSC002) at the Hot Springs Range Project in Nevada (see Figures 1 and 2 for location) and to update progress on its current drill hole (HSC003). Eminent completed the first core hole HSC002* in its maiden drill program at the Otis target within the Hot Springs Range Project ("HSRP") (see NR dated 01/16/25). The objective of the drill hole was to look for geologic and geochemical indicators that HSRP is an analogue to the prolific Getchell Trend (50-million-ounce gold endowment1) 15 km across the Eden Valley (Figure 2). The hole encountered significant alteration in the form of silica and hematite replacement of volcanic rocks and limestone (Figure 3 (plan) and Figure 4 (cross-section)). The results released on January 16, 2025, only included select samples from HSC002 gold rush assays, such as the reported 2.9 meters (m) of 2.2 g/t gold (Au) and 2,107 ppm arsenic (As), starting at 272.8 m downhole. Now, all of the remaining assays have returned. Three significant new intercepts include: 3.9 m of 2.4 g/t Au, including 0.5 m of 8 g/t Au and 807 ppm As, starting at 310.4 m 4.6 m of 1.4 g/t Au including 0.9 m of 4.4 g/t Au and 2,252 ppm As, starting at 347.1 m 1.4 m of 2.4 g/t Au and 724 ppm As, starting at 358.2 m The core intercepts are illustrated in the cross-section in Figure 4, and photos of the new intercepts can be found in Figures 5 and 6. In addition to these intercepts, sixteen new samples were assayed, with results ranging from 0.1 g/t Au to 1.3 g/t Au, starting at a depth of 48 m and continuing intermittently to a depth of 475 m downhole. Table 1. Intercepts from drill hole HSC002 at Eminent's HSRP Project From (m) To (m) Width (m) Au (g/t) As (ppm) NR date 272.8 275.7 2.9 2.2 2107 1/16/25 310.4 314.3 3.9* 2.4 807 today 347.1 351.6 4.6* 1.4 2252 today 358.2 359.7 1.4 2.4 724 today *Composite assays Dan McCoy, Chief Geologist and Director commented: "We are very pleased with the gold and arsenic mineralization occurring over a 427-meter interval in our first completed hole, which was drilled parallel to a key target structure into a blind target. The four significant intercepts are a great validation for our model and suggest that we are in the unveiling of a strong gold-mineralizing system. The presence of strong arsenic mineralization provides evidence that we are exploring a Carlin-type system. Our second hole is also encountering some interesting alteration, as well as some major faults, which are supporting our geologic model." Core hole HSC003 is in progress and has encountered significant alteration, with assays pending for the top part of the hole. Although not complete, Eminent believes that drill hole HSC003 will further validate the structural and mineralization model. Paul Sun, President and CEO of the Company commented: "These results are beyond what we expected for our very first hole as a company, as well as for the very first hole on the other side of the Getchell Trend, where nobody has drilled before. We look forward to finishing our second hole in the near future and await its assay results with great anticipation." Quality Control and Reporting Protocols The Company implemented a sample quality control/quality assurance ("QA/QC") program. Drill cores were cut in half using a diamond saw, with one half placed in sealed bags. A QA/QC program included field standards, duplicates, or blanks inserted every 20 samples. Sample preparation and subsequent geochemical analysis were performed by ALS Chemex, with sample preparation and subsequent analysis conducted at the ALS facility in Reno, Nevada and Vancouver, Canada. ALS Chemex applied their own in-house QA/QC program. Composite intercepts were derived from zones that assayed above one g/t Au over more than a meter.
