\nNevGold Identifies Large Quantities of Previously Mined Material With Significant Antimony And Near-Term Production Potential at Limo Butte, Nevada\n<\/h2>\n\n

\nJanuary 06, 2026 \u2013 07:00 ET<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n\n

\nVancouver, British Columbia (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)<\/strong> \u2014 NevGold Corp. (\u201cNevGold\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) (TSXV: NAU) (OTCQX: NAUFF) (Frankfurt: 5E50) announced positive, consistent antimony (\u201cSb\u201d) and gold (\u201cAu\u201d) pit sampling results from historical gold leach pads at its Limousine Butte Project (\u201cLimo Butte\u201d) in Nevada.\n<\/p>\n\n

\nThe leach pads originate from mining operations conducted in 1989\u20131990, a period when antimony was not a focus and gold prices were below US$400\/oz. Based on historical records, NevGold estimates 2.4 to 3.0 million tonnes<\/strong> of previously mined material remains at surface with consistent antimony and gold grades, creating a potential pathway for near-term antimony production<\/strong>.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Highlights<\/h3>\n\n
    \n
  • Crushed Leach Pad:<\/strong> 1.4\u20131.7 million tonnes averaging 0.27% Sb<\/strong> and 0.34 g\/t Au<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • ROM Leach Pad:<\/strong> 1.0\u20131.3 million tonnes averaging 0.31% Sb<\/strong> and 0.18 g\/t Au<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Consistent antimony and gold grades across all pits<\/li>\n
  • High-grade antimony zones from 0.74% to 0.81% Sb<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Acid leaching preferred with recoveries up to 92%<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Brownfield Nevada site with surface critical mineral inventory<\/li>\n
  • Potential production and cash flow within 12\u201324 months<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    2025\u20132026 Limo Butte Work Program<\/h3>\n\n
      \n
    • Historical database review (completed)<\/li>\n
    • Phase II metallurgical testwork (completed)<\/li>\n
    • Ongoing drilling (30 holes completed)<\/li>\n
    • Advancing crushed and ROM leach pads toward near-term production<\/li>\n
    • Gold-antimony Mineral Resource Estimate (in progress)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
