Newcore Gold Drilling Intersects 4.41 g/t Gold over 24.0 Metres, including 9.08 g/t Gold over 10.0 Metres, at the Enchi Gold Project, Ghana
Drilling Intersects Wide Zones of Higher-Grade Gold Mineralization at the Boin Gold Deposit VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Newcore Gold Ltd. ("Newcore" or the "Company") (TSX-V: NCAU, OTCQX: NCAUF) is pleased to announce additional drill results from the 35,000-metre drill program underway at the Company's 100% owned Enchi Gold Project ("Enchi" or the "Project") in Ghana. Shallow Reverse Circulation ("RC") drilling at the Boin Gold Deposit ("Boin") intersected multiple wide zones of higher-grade gold mineralization, including hole KBRC357 which intersected 4.41 grams per tonne gold ("g/t Au") over 24.0 metres ("m") from 126 m, including a higher-grade interval of 9.08 g/t Au over 10.0 m from 132 m. Hole KBRC360 intersected 1.58 g/t Au over 52.0 m from 75 m, including a higher-grade interval of 3.04 g/t Au over 16.0 m from 96 m. Drilling continues to prove out the continuity of gold mineralization and potential for resource growth at Enchi. The 35,000-metre drill program underway at Enchi is focused on resource growth and infill drilling designed to convert Inferred Resources to Indicated. The goal of the first phase of drilling is completion of drilling required for resource conversion in advance of commissioning a Pre-Feasibility Study later this year. The second phase of the drill program will focus on discovery and resource growth, including drilling targeting earlier-stage exploration targets along with drilling focused on defining the resource growth potential at depth and along strike. Highlights from Drilling at the Boin Gold Deposit at Enchi Drilling in the north-central portion of the Boin Gold Deposit encountered multiple wide zones of gold mineralization with higher-grade intervals. KBRC357 intersected 4.41 g/t Au over 24.0 m from 126 m, including a high-grade interval of 9.08 g/t Au over 10.0 m from 132 m. KBRC360 intersected 1.58 g/t Au over 52.0 m from 75 m, including a higher-grade interval of 3.04 g/t Au over 16.0 m from 96 m. The hole ended in mineralization, encountering a second structure with 0.62 g/t Au over 22.0 m from 155 m. Drilling continues to intersect gold mineralization outside of the limits of the pit that currently constrains the Mineral Resource Estimate at Boin. KBRC347B intersected 1.05 g/t Au over 38.0 m from 134 m. KBRC362 intersected 0.66 g/t Au over 52.0 m from 158 m, ending in mineralization. Luke Alexander, President and CEO of Newcore stated, "The results from the drill program underway at Enchi continue to highlight the strong continuity of mineralization as well as the potential for resource growth. Not only do we continue to encounter wide zones of gold mineralization, but we continue to encounter higher-grade zones of gold mineralization above the average grade of the deposit, and notably we continue to intersect mineralization below the limits of the pit that constrains the current Mineral Resource Estimate at Boin. These additional shallow high-grade intercepts continue to highlight the opportunity for meaningful resource growth at depth. With most drilling to date at Enchi only completed to an average vertical depth of 100 metres, we believe we have only just begun to define the potential of the Project when compared to other multi-million-ounce gold mines, including Asante's Chirano and Bibiani mines as well as Newmont's Ahafo mine, which are located along the Sefwi-Bibiani belt. We look forward to continuing to highlight the growth and size potential of our district scale Enchi Gold Project as we advance the Project towards a mineral resource update and Pre-Feasibility Study in H1 2026." This release reports results for 11 RC holes totalling 2,042 m (KBRC347B, KBRC357 to KBRC366) targeting the Boin Gold Deposit, with all holes intersecting gold mineralization. A total of 19,634 m in 153 holes have been reported as part of the ongoing 2024 - 2025 drill program at Enchi. Select assay results from the 11 holes of the drill program reported in this release are below: Table 1 - Enchi Gold Project Drill Highlights Hole ID Zone/Deposit From (m) To (m) Length (m) Au (g/t) KBRC357 Boin 126.0 150.0 24.0 4.41 including 132.0 142.0 10.0 9.08 KBRC360 Boin 75.0 127.0 52.0 1.58 including 96.0 112.0 16.0 3.04 KBRC347B Boin 134.0 172.0 38.0 1.05 KBRC362 Boin 158.0 210.0 52.0 0.66 KBRC359 Boin 110.0 144.0 34.0 0.87 Notes: 1.

Drilling targeted near-surface oxidized, transition as well as shallow sulphide mineralization with a goal of infill drilling for resource conversion to improve the confidence level as well as grow the existing Mineral Resource Estimate. RC drilling at Boin consisted of 50-metre spaced sections with drill holes spaced every 25 metres along the sections. The holes reported in this news release are distributed across 3 separate sections spanning 200 metres of strike length in the north-central area of Boin and 5 separate sections spanning 1.3 kilometres of strike length in the central area of Boin. 5 RC holes totalling 929 m (KBRC357 to KBRC361) were drilled on the north-central portion of the structure at Boin. KBRC357 intersected 4.41 g/t Au over 24.0 m from 126 m within the upper sulphide mineralization, including a higher-grade interval in the central portion of the structure of 9.08 g/t Au over 10.0 m from 132 m. KBRC357 also intersected a second interval of 1.07 g/t Au over 8.0 m from 113 m within the transition and upper sulphide horizon. Hole KBRC360, drilled 200 metres north of KBRC357, intersected 1.58 g/t Au over 52.0 m from 75 m, including a higher-grade interval of 3.04 g/t Au over 16.0 m from 96 m within the transitional mineralization. Within this hole, a second structure was encountered within the sulphide mineralization of 0.62 g/t Au over 22.0 m from 155 m, with KBRC360 ending in mineralization and the majority of this second interval encountered below the limits of the pit that constrains the current Mineral Resource Estimate at Boin. Additional drilling in the north-central area of Boin encountered wide zones of gold mineralization with above average grade gold mineralization, including KBRC359, drilled 25 metres to the east of KBRC360 on the same section, with 0.87 g/t gold over 34.0 m from 110 m intersected within the transitional and upper sulphide horizon. KBRC361, drilled 150 metres to the east of KBRC359 and directed back toward the west, intersected multiple zones within the sulphide mineralization including 2.13 g/t Au over 13.0 m from 157 m. 6 RC holes totalling 1,113 m (KBRC347B, KBRC362 to KBRC366) were drilled on the central portion of the structure at Boin, approximately one kilometre to the south of the north-central area. KBRC347B intersected 1.05 g/t Au over 38.0 m from 134 m within the sulphide horizon, with a second interval of 0.58 g/t over 17.0 m from 42 m in the near surface oxide mineralization. KBRC366, drilled 50 m to the east on the same section as KBRC347B, intersected a higher-grade zone in the sulphides with 2.01 g/t Au over 11.0 m from 192 m. KBRC362, drilled 300 m to the south of KBRC347B, intersected 0.66 g/t Au over 52.0 m from 158 m in the sulphide horizon, with the hole ending in mineralization and the entirety of this interval occurring below the limits of the pit that constrains the current Mineral Resource Estimate at Boin. This drilling continues to confirm continuity along strike and down dip for the principal structures which comprise the Boin Gold Deposit. The width and gold grades within these drill results are consistent with prior wider-spaced drilling completed at Boin. The Company anticipates that these results, along with drill results previously released from the 2024 - 2025 drill program, should improve the confidence level of the existing Mineral Resource Estimate. This recent drilling was drilled in areas where the previous pit constrained Mineral Resource Estimate was classified as Inferred. The results of this recent drilling should allow for conversion of a substantial portion of mineralization within these areas to the Indicated category. 2024 - 2025 Enchi Work Program A 35,000-metre drill program is underway at Enchi, targeting near-surface oxide and shallow sulphide mineralization with a primary goal of infill drilling for resource conversion to improve the confidence level of the existing Mineral Resource Estimate. Most of the infill drilling is allocated to the two largest deposits at Enchi, Boin and Sewum. Improving the confidence level of the Mineral Resource Estimate at Enchi is a key component of the development work required to be completed in advance of commissioning a Pre-Feasibility Study for the Project. A subset of the drill program will also focus on outlining resource growth, with all deposit areas and pre-resource targets at Enchi remaining open along strike and at depth, providing for future resource growth across the district-scale property. Additional exploration and development work is on-going at Enchi, including metallurgical testwork, trenching, hydrogeological testing, geotechnical work, environmental work and soil sampling. Drone topographic surveys have been completed, expanding on previously completed work, at the Kwakyekrom and Tokosea deposit areas to provide detailed topographic information required to improve the confidence level of each deposit's Mineral Resource Estimate. Additionally, the drone survey was completed across the proposed heap leach facility area to contribute additional data for future detailed engineering studies. An airborne magnetic survey tested grass roots targets related to a series of gold-in-soil anomalies and gold mineralization identified in trenching. Soil sampling is also currently being completed on the Omanpe and Abotia licenses with a goal of further defining early-stage targets across Enchi for future trenching and drilling. Boin Gold Zone Boin is one of the five deposits which comprise the Mineral Resource Estimate at Enchi (Boin has an Indicated Mineral Resource of 13.0 million tonnes grading 0.62 g/t Au containing 258,200 ounces and Inferred Mineral Resource of 15.9 million tonnes grading 0.68 g/t Au containing 349,600 ounces). Boin is located 10 kilometres south of the town of Enchi, with nearby roads and power and further access provided by a series of drill roads. Boin is outlined on surface by a greater than six-kilometre-long by up to one-kilometre-wide gold in soil anomaly. An airborne geophysical anomaly coincident with the Boin structure extends for a further kilometre north and three kilometres south beyond the limits of current drilling. To date, approximately 40% of the gold-in-soil anomaly at Boin is untested by drilling, with the average vertical depth of all holes drilled to date at Boin only down to 100 metres.

Newcore Gold Ltd. (CVE:NCAU) surges 14%; retail investors who own 56% shares profited along with institutions
Significant control over Newcore Gold by retail investors implies that the general public has more power to influence management and governance-related decisions 44% of the business is held by the top 21 shareholders Insiders have been buying lately The end of cancer? These 15 emerging AI stocks are developing tech that will allow early identification of life changing diseases like cancer and Alzheimer's. To get a sense of who is truly in control of Newcore Gold Ltd. (CVE:NCAU), it is important to understand the ownership structure of the business. With 56% stake, retail investors possess the maximum shares in the company. Put another way, the group faces the maximum upside potential (or downside risk). While retail investors were the group that reaped the most benefits after last week's 14% price gain, institutions also received a 31% cut. In the chart below, we zoom in on the different ownership groups of Newcore Gold. Check out our latest analysis for Newcore Gold Institutional investors commonly compare their own returns to the returns of a commonly followed index. So they generally do consider buying larger companies that are included in the relevant benchmark index. As you can see, institutional investors have a fair amount of stake in Newcore Gold. This implies the analysts working for those institutions have looked at the stock and they like it. But just like anyone else, they could be wrong. It is not uncommon to see a big share price drop if two large institutional investors try to sell out of a stock at the same time. So it is worth checking the past earnings trajectory of Newcore Gold, (below). Of course, keep in mind that there are other factors to consider, too. We note that hedge funds don't have a meaningful investment in Newcore Gold. Franklin Resources, Inc. is currently the company's largest shareholder with 7.1% of shares outstanding. With 6.4% and 4.6% of the shares outstanding respectively, Aegis Financial Corporation and Blayne Johnson are the second and third largest shareholders. Blayne Johnson, who is the third-largest shareholder, also happens to hold the title of Lead Director. Furthermore, CEO Luke Alexander is the owner of 1.5% of the company's shares. On studying our ownership data, we found that 21 of the top shareholders collectively own less than 50% of the share register, implying that no single individual has a majority interest. Researching institutional ownership is a good way to gauge and filter a stock's expected performance. The same can be achieved by studying analyst sentiments. While there is some analyst coverage, the company is probably not widely covered. So it could gain more attention, down the track. The definition of an insider can differ slightly between different countries, but members of the board of directors always count. The company management answer to the board and the latter should represent the interests of shareholders. Notably, sometimes top-level managers are on the board themselves. Insider ownership is positive when it signals leadership are thinking like the true owners of the company. However, high insider ownership can also give immense power to a small group within the company. This can be negative in some circumstances. Our information suggests that insiders maintain a significant holding in Newcore Gold Ltd.. It has a market capitalization of just CA$145m, and insiders have CA$19m worth of shares in their own names. It is great to see insiders so invested in the business. It might be worth checking if those insiders have been buying recently. The general public -- including retail investors -- own 56% of Newcore Gold. With this amount of ownership, retail investors can collectively play a role in decisions that affect shareholder returns, such as dividend policies and the appointment of directors. They can also exercise the power to vote on acquisitions or mergers that may not improve profitability. It's always worth thinking about the different groups who own shares in a company. But to understand Newcore Gold better, we need to consider many other factors. Be aware that Newcore Gold is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis , you should know about... But ultimately it is the future, not the past, that will determine how well the owners of this business will do. Therefore we think it advisable to take a look at this free report showing whether analysts are predicting a brighter future.
