Phone: +44 207 920 3150Cautionary Statements Regarding the Initial Assessment and Mineral ResourcesThe Initial Assessment is a preliminary technical and economic study that indicates the economic potential of the mineralization to support the disclosure of mineral resources at the Hycroft Mine. The Initial Assessment, however, does not represent a feasibility study or a pre-feasibility and does not demonstrate economic viability nor does it support a development decision, for which additional project planning and design are needed. As a result, Hycroft plans to continue to estimate its resources at the Hycroft Mine and further develop the project economics.As used in this news release, the terms "pre-feasibility study," "feasibility study," "initial assessment," "mineral reserve," "mineral resource," "measured mineral resource," "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource", as applicable, and other terms used herein are defined and used in accordance with S-K 1300.The Initial Assessment also does not include the conversion of mineral resources to mineral reserves. Under subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K, mineral resources may not be classified as "mineral reserves" unless the determination has been made by a QP that the mineral resources can be the basis of an economically viable project. Investors are specifically cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits (including any mineral resources) in these categories will ever be converted into mineral reserves, as defined by the SEC.In addition, estimates of inferred mineral resources have too high of a degree of uncertainty as to their existence and may not be converted to a mineral reserve. Therefore, investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists, that it can be the basis of an economically viable project, or that it will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Likewise, investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be converted to mineral reserves.Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking StatementsCertain information set forth in this news release contains "forward-looking statements" and "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable United States securities law (referred to herein as forward-looking statements).

Au and Ag grades are in troy ounces per short ton (oz/ton)Mining MethodsHycroft is planned as a conventional hard rock open pit operation. The mine plan is based on measured and indicated mineralization that was estimated in the mineral resource block model. Independent Mining Consultants developed a mine plan that produces the required process feed and moves sufficient mine waste to assure continued release of the mineralization.The mine will feed two processing facilities:A flotation mill followed by pressure oxidation and leaching of the concentrate, andA Run-of-Mine ("ROM") heap leach for mineralization that is amenable to direct cyanide leaching.The cutoff grade for the schedule is based on income net of process:Income net of process = Net Return after Refining – Process CostsTotal mined material begins with 11.3 million tons per annum in preproduction and increases to 71.2 million tons per annum in Years 1 through 3. Additional equipment is acquired later in the mine life with total material movement increasing to 82.0 million tons per annum from Years 5 to 27. From Year 28 until the end of the mine life (Year 51) the total material mined reduces to 70 million tons per annum.The material planned for milling and leaching on the production schedule is potentially minable material. They do not constitute mineral reserves at this time.Low-grade mill feed material is stockpiled throughout the mine life. This material is not fed to the mill and is not part of the economic analysis in this report. Further trade-off studies will analyze the opportunity to feed this additional material through the process plant. Mined Tons & Payable Gold Equivalent OuncesProduction Schedule The following graphs reflect the approximate recovered metal produced over the mine life and the relative metal contribution of the heap leach compared to the mill.Recovered Gold and Silver by Year Processing and Recovery Methods A significant portion of the gold and silver in the material going to the process plant is refractory due to its association with pyrite, marcasite, and other sulfide minerals. Oxide and some transition material will be processed on a heap leach pad. A process flowsheet was developed to treat sulfide and certain transition mineralization. These materials are ground and floated to produce a concentrate. The concentrate is then oxidized in the POX plant and subsequently cyanide leached to extract gold and silver.The key process plant design criteria are:Major equipment is designed for a nominal throughput of 57,100 tons/dayPlant process recovery of 82.8% gold and 77.5% silver, given the LOM average gradesExisting crushing circuit consists of primary, secondary, and tertiary crushing, supported by a coarse ore stockpile and a crushed ore stockpile with dedicated feeders to provide continuous feed to the downstream process plantProcess flowsheets include three stages of crushing followed by two stages of ball milling, flotation, POX, a cyanide leaching circuit for oxidized flotation concentrate, Merrill-Crowe circuit, and Tailings Management Facilities ("TMF"), with an overall availability of 92%Pregnant solution from the cyanide leach circuit will be processed in the existing Merrill-Crowe zinc cementation facilities.InfrastructureThe Hycroft Mine benefits from substantial existing infrastructure constructed and operated over decades of prior production. Key existing facilities include:Crushing facilityHeap leach padsNorth Merrill-Crowe facilityOnsite access, haul roads and a major east–west railway pass adjacent to the Hycroft propertyTruck shopMaintenance buildingLaboratory and administrative buildingsPower is supplied to the site from nearby power linesPotable water is sourced from a wellNew infrastructure to be constructed includes the Northeast TMF, a Waste Rock Storage Facility, the Process Plant Site and associated infrastructure, a Limestone Plant, and a new rail spur.The proposed processing facility is designed to be inclusive with (or "of") the existing crushing circuit and North Merrill-Crowe facility. The proposed scope of work includes electrical distribution upgrades, new substations, process control systems, reagent handling facilities (including oxygen and limestone systems), and selective expansion or repurposing of existing maintenance and administrative buildings.The site currently has access to grid power. Additional transmission capacity is required to support the new plant. The total estimated load factoring for load growth, including power for the oxygen plant, is 160 MW. Tie-ins to existing utilities will include water, compressed air, and potable and sewer systems. The development of a freshwater production well field is also planned to support freshwater needs throughout the LOM.A rail spur extension from the Union Pacific line is planned to support delivery of reagents, consumables, and fuel. Additionally, the existing fuel island is to be replaced with a higher-efficiency system during the LOM.Ancillary structures including a covered crushed ore stockpile, new laboratory and maintenance facilities, fuel station upgrades, and technical services expansion are proposed to support operations over the LOM. In addition to this, selected existing buildings will be relocated, expanded, rehabilitated, or repurposed.ContractsHycroft Mine is subject to a royalty agreement (Sprott Royalty Agreement) with SPRL II which was initiated on May 29, 2020. The royalty is accounted for by Hycroft as a deferred gain liability in which Hycroft received a cash consideration of US$30.0 million in exchange for a perpetual royalty equal to 1.5% (2.14% including withholding tax gross up) of Net Smelter Returns (NSR) from Hycroft Mine. Environmental, Permitting and Social ConsiderationsThe Mine is located on public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") and private land controlled by Hycroft Resources and Development, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hycroft Mining Holding Company.Hycroft is currently authorized to operate under a plan of operations ("POO") for ore extraction and processing, water management, engineering, environmental studies, and exploration. In 2012, the BLM issued a Record of Decision ("ROD") for an EIS conducted for the Mine to expand heap leach operations, open pits, and waste rock facilities. In 2014, the BLM issued a Decision Record with an Environmental Assessment authorizing Hycroft's POO for construction and operations of a rail spur, open pit expansion, and construction of a processing complex, including the TMF located northeast of the Mine. The TRS outlines development of additional infrastructure to support the modified Project including construction of a new TMF, waste rock storage facilities, rail spur, and a new process plant area. Review and approval of proposed revisions to the POO by the BLM constitutes a federal action under the National Environmental Policy Act and applicable BLM regulations. Accordingly, BLM review of the Plan Application will require preparation of either an Environmental Assessment or an Environmental Impact Statement.

The Silver Deficit Just Hit Year Six and Junior Miners Are RespondingApril 29, 2026 8:45 AM
PR Newswire (US)
Issued on behalf of GoldHaven Resources Corp.VANCOUVER, BC, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- EquityInsider.com Sector Commentary — Silver just posted its sixth consecutive annual supply deficit, with the 2026 shortfall widening 15% to 46.3 million troy ounces[1]. That means demand has outpaced production for half a decade straight, and the gap is getting wider, not narrower. At the same time, governments are pouring capital into critical minerals at a pace that would have seemed unlikely even two years ago; the United States convened 54 nations at the 2026 Critical Minerals Ministerial and committed $10 billion to a new strategic reserve through Project Vault, while Canada signed cooperation agreements with 21 global partners[2]. When the commodity is draining and the policy tailwind is accelerating, the juniors sitting on diversified polymetallic deposits tend to separate from the pack. Five of them are doing exactly that: GoldHaven Resources (CSE: GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF), Blackrock Silver Corp. (TSXV: BRC) (OTCQX: BKRRF), Hycroft Mining (NASDAQ: HYMC), Aya Gold & Silver (TSX: AYA) (OTCQX: AYASF), and NevGold (TSXV: NAU) (OTCQX: NAUFF).
The analyst consensus is shifting to match the structural picture. Bank of America projects silver could reach between $135 and $309 per ounce by year end if the gold-to-silver ratio compresses toward historical extremes, while J.P. Morgan's base case sits at $81 per ounce[3]. Those targets are built on a simple foundation: the market has drawn down 762 million troy ounces from above-ground inventories since 2021, roughly an entire year of global mine output, and advanced polymetallic juniors carrying embedded critical mineral exposure now represent the highest-conviction discovery-stage repricing opportunity in the sector[4].GoldHaven Resources (CSE: GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF) has hired Dias Airborne Limited to fly a 1,741 line-kilometre high-resolution magnetic survey over its flagship Magno Project in northern British Columbia, with the program expected to launch in June 2026. The company also recently closed an oversubscribed flow-through financing totaling approximately $2.04 million to fully fund the upcoming drill campaign.It will be the first modern property-wide geophysical survey across the full Magno land package, which now spans more than 37,200 hectares after GoldHaven recently filed a technical report on three newly acquired mineral claims added to the Magno Project. The airborne program will scan the Magno Zone, Kuhn Zone, and D Zone at tight 100-metre line spacing, targeting corridors where surface sampling has returned silver grades up to 2,370 grams per tonne, tungsten up to 6,550 parts per million, and indium concentrations as high as 334 parts per million.GoldHaven selected Dias based on geological similarities between Magno and Hercules Metals' Leviathan discovery in Idaho, where the same QMAGT sensor platform helped identify concealed drill targets that led to discovery. The technology uses superconducting quantum interference device sensors to capture the full tensor of the Earth's magnetic field, delivering sharper resolution than conventional surveys. GoldHaven is also evaluating a follow-on ground-based 3D IP survey to refine subsurface targeting ahead of drill mobilization."This survey represents a major step forward in systematically unlocking the district-scale potential of Magno," said Rob Birmingham, CEO of GoldHaven. "By integrating modern high-resolution geophysics with our growing geological database and 2025 surface discoveries, we believe we are significantly improving our ability to define high-confidence drill targets across multiple mineralized systems at Magno."GoldHaven has already submitted its drill permit application for a 2026 program targeting three high-grade zones carrying silver, tungsten, lead, zinc, and indium mineralization. Tungsten is classified as a critical mineral by both the Canadian and U.S. governments, and Canada currently has no primary domestic tungsten production.Beyond British Columbia, GoldHaven is advancing its Copeçal Gold Project in Mato Grosso, Brazil, where the company recently completed its first diamond drilling program confirming gold and copper anomalism. Phase 2 drilling is planned for mid-Q2 2026. Between Magno and a 123,900-hectare Brazilian portfolio spanning three projects, GoldHaven offers diversified discovery exposure at a stage where most juniors remain locked into a single asset.CONTINUED… Read this and more news for GoldHaven Resources at:https://equity-insider.com/2025/10/02/the-goldhaven-story-two-continents-one-strategy-systematic-historic-gold-district-exploration-2/In other industry developments:Blackrock Silver Corp. (TSXV: BRC) (OTCQX: BKRRF) released an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment for its 100%-owned Tonopah West silver-gold project in Nevada, delivering an After-Tax IRR of 28% and NPV5% of US$437 million on initial capex of US$190 million across an 11.2-year mine life. Indicated resources increased 90% to 40.2 million AgEq ounces at 454 g/t AgEq, with average annual production of 7.1 million AgEq ounces at AISC of US$17.44 per ounce."When we published our inaugural preliminary economic assessment 18 months ago, every ounce in the mine plan was inferred. Today we are presenting a high-confidence project underpinned by a substantial indicated resource base of 40.2 million silver equivalent ounces, nearly double what we reported in our previous resource estimate," said Andrew Pollard, President and CEO of Blackrock Silver.Anchored at US$31 per ounce silver and US$2,700 per ounce gold, Blackrock Silver projects after-tax life-of-mine cash flow of US$778 million with a payback period of 3.5 years. An inferred resource of 83 million AgEq ounces and an open vein system support continued resource expansion.Hycroft Mining (NASDAQ: HYMC) released additional drill results from the Vortex zone at the Hycroft Mine in Nevada, with hole H25D-6083 returning 53.4 metres at 304.14 g/t silver and 1.33 g/t gold, including 0.9 metres grading 2,890 g/t silver and 33.70 g/t gold at the structural intersection of the Break and Albert Faults. The results extend Vortex along strike and at depth, with two additional core rigs arriving in the coming months to accelerate drilling at both Vortex and Brimstone."These exceptional drill results represent a pivotal stage in the advancement of our project, where two years of disciplined analysis and exploration are delivering clear, high-impact success," said Diane Garrett, President and CEO of Hycroft Mining. "They not only confirm the strength and continuity of the mineralization we've long believed in, but the consistency and scale of the mineralization we are seeing strongly support our geological and structural model."Both Vortex and Brimstone remain open in all directions and at depth, with Hycroft Mining characterizing the current results as representing only a small portion of the system's potential. The company updated its structural model following two years of core logging, identifying fluid pathways controlling mineralization at both high-grade zones that are now being directly targeted in the ongoing drill program.Aya Gold & Silver (TSX: AYA) (OTCQX: AYASF) announced the commencement of a feasibility study for its Boumadine gold-silver project in Morocco following receipt of the mining permit, with a target completion by H2-2027. The company is advancing ten drill rigs on an aggressive infill program, with nearly 20% of its 2026 drilling objective already completed, alongside multiple parallel workstreams to accelerate the next phase of development."We are accelerating development at Boumadine as it enters the feasibility stage," said Benoit La Salle, President and CEO of Aya Gold & Silver. "With the mining permit in place, we are advancing multiple workstreams in parallel to fast-track the next phase of development while maintaining the highest technical standards, supported by leading engineering firms and specialists. In parallel, ten drill rigs are advancing an aggressive infill program, with nearly 20% of our 2026 drilling objective already completed."Aya Gold & Silver operates the Zgounder silver mine in Morocco and is advancing the Boumadine polymetallic project, where the feasibility study marks a transition from exploration to development and is expected to form the basis of a future production decision.NevGold (TSXV: NAU) (OTCQX: NAUFF) reported Phase II metallurgical testwork results at its Limousine Butte Project in Nevada, confirming that a sequential antimony-then-gold leaching flowsheet achieves greater than 93% average gold recovery from residual tailings after the antimony leaching stage. Six tested samples delivered gold recoveries ranging from 82% to 99%, demonstrating that the antimony recovery process has minimal to no impact on gold recoveries and supporting the development of a combined antimony-gold mine scenario."The results from our Phase II antimony and gold metallurgical testwork shows that leaching in sequence on antimony and gold works favorably as we have envisioned and guided to over the past 12 months," said Brandon Bonifacio, CEO of NevGold. "This is a key step in optimizing the metallurgical flowsheet to recover antimony and gold at Limo Butte."The company also identified additional antimony mineralization at surface in the historical pre-strip waste dump adjacent to the past-producing Golden Butte pit, representing another potential source of near-surface antimony material. NevGold has completed drilling on the historical leach pads and a mineral resource estimate is on track for Q2 2026.FURTHER READING: https://equity-insider.com/2025/10/02/the-goldhaven-story-two-continents-one-strategy-systematic-historic-gold-district-exploration-2/CONTACT:

WINNEMUCCA, NV, April 21, 2026 – Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: HYMC) (“Hycroft” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce an update on its exploration activities at the Hycroft mine, located in Nevada, USA, a Tier 1 mining jurisdiction.
Underground Mining Option on Brimstone and Vortex
The Company has engaged RESPEC Company LLC (“RESPEC”) to review underground mining options for the recently discovered high-grade silver systems at Brimstone and Vortex.
RESPEC will collaborate closely with Hycroft’s technical team, utilizing all data from work completed to date. The scope of work includes evaluation of mining methods, conceptual mine design, and schedule development, culminating in an internal report to the Company.
In parallel, the Company is evaluating the development of an exploration decline to enable underground drill access. This initiative is expected to maximize drilling efficiencies while delivering savings in both time and cost. RESPEC’s engineering work will determine the optimal portal location and appropriate decline dimensions, which could also support future production.
This work represents an important step as Hycroft advances exploration and evaluates future development opportunities for the high-grade silver systems.
Diane R. Garrett, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “The appointment of RESPEC will help us assess the potential to develop a decline giving us direct access to our new high-grade silver deposits. The Brimstone system in particular starts from only 30 meters beneath the existing open pit so a decline will allow us to consider an underground drilling program as well as give us early production options. We look forward to the findings of their engineering report in the coming months.”
Technical Report
WestLand Engineering & Environmental Services, Inc. (“WestLand”), a Qualified Expert, has completed the engineering work associated with the additional lifts on the tailings storage facility (“TSF”). The additional TSF capacity is needed to accommodate additional tailing material as a result of the large increase in the Company’s mineral resources that were announced earlier in February.
With this work now completed, Ausenco Engineering South USA, Inc. (“Ausenco”) can complete the Initial Assessment Technical Report with economics. The Company is anticipating that it will be complete during the second quarter of 2026.
Inclusion in VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF
The Company is pleased to announce that it has been added to the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ), a leading exchange-traded fund focused on junior gold and silver mining companies. Inclusion in the GDXJ reflects Hycroft’s growth, increasing visibility within the global precious metals sector, and relevance to a wider institutional investor base.
