Americas Gold and Silver Reports High-Grade 149 Vein Extension Including 24,913 g/t Silver and 16.9% Copper at Galena Complex and Effective Date of Share Consolidation

Drill Results Exploration Programs Corporate Actions

TORONTO, ONTARIO – August 22, 2025 – Americas Gold and Silver Corpora�on (TSX: USA) (NYSE American: USAS) (“Americas” or the “Company”), a growing North American precious metals producer, is pleased to announce strong explora�on results at the Galena Complex, highligh�ng the iden�fica�on of a high-grade upper extension of the 149 Vein.

The Company is also pleased to report that its previously announced share consolida�on has been effected and trading on a post-consolida�on basis is expected to occur star�ng with the open of trading on August 26, 2025, on the basis of one (1) post-consolida�on common share of the Company (“Common Share”) for every two and a half (2.5) pre-consolida�on Common Shares (the "Consolida�on").

Paul Andre Huet, Chairman and CEO, commented: “The iden�fica�on of this high-grade copper-silver-an�mony extension to the 149 Vein is an exci�ng development that builds on our ongoing success in unlocking addi�onal value at the Galena Complex. With some extraordinary intercepts, including 24,913 grams per ton silver over 0.21 metres, and nearly 120 meters of ver�cal con�nuity demonstrated above the current mining level and excep�onal grades in the intercepts, this extension posi�ons us to poten�ally expand produc�on from an already high- performing vein. It aligns with our targeted explora�on strategy to enhance mill feed quality and opera�onal efficiency, suppor�ng our goals of increasing output and shareholder value.

We are also pleased with the comple�on of the share consolida�on, which represents a strategic move to strengthen our capital structure. By reducing the number of outstanding shares, the consolida�on maintains shareholder value and opens the doors to ins�tu�onal investors with minimum price thresholds. It also poten�ally unlocks access to margin accounts at certain brokerages. Our leadership team successfully executed a 4.5-to-1 consolida�on at Karora Resources in 2020, which saw the daily trading value triple over four years, demonstra�ng our experience with such ini�a�ves, though past performance is not indica�ve of future results. This consolida�on posi�ons Americas for future growth as we con�nue to advance our high-poten�al assets.”

High-grade Extension of 149 Vein Uncovered by Explora�on Drilling at Galena Complex, Highlighted by 24,913 g/t Ag and 16.9% Cu Over 0.21 Meters

Recent early-stage explora�on drilling on the 4300 Level from the 43-191 DDS at the Galena Mine has iden�fied a high-grade copper-silver-an�mony vein believed to be the upper extension of the previously iden�fied 149 Vein. The three holes drilled to date demonstrate nearly 120 meters of ver�cal con�nuity above current mining level with more drilling in progress to infill and extend this vein. The 149 Vein is currently being mined below these intercepts, producing a consistent high-grade mill feed of 600-700 tons per cut that average 700-950 silver grams per ton and 0.6-0.7% copper. The 149 Vein is a strong candidate currently under review for long hole open stoping.

The geologic se�ng and host rock interpreta�on indicates that recent intercepts are near the upper crown of the 149 Vein. This area is located within the transi�on zone of the Upper Reve� and the St. Regis Forma�ons, the two dominant Belt Supergroup forma�ons seen at the Galena Mine. To date, 4,878 meters have been drilled from this sta�on out of a planned 18,100 meters, tes�ng several different targets in addi�on to the 149 Vein.

Drill results on the 149 vein to-date are:

  • DDH 43-317: 24,913 g/t Ag and 16.9% Cu over 0.21 meters
  • DDH 43-304: 2,816 g/t Ag, 2.0% Cu and 1.05% Sb over 1.05 meters
  • DDH 43-316: 2,354 g/t Ag and 1.7% Cu over 1.58 meters

An�mony (Sb) results are currently pending on holes 43-316 and 43-317.

These intercepts underscore the high-grade nature of the 149 Vein extension, with poten�al to contribute to nearterm mining plans and further resource delinea�on as addi�onal drilling progresses. The vein remains open for expansion, and ongoing efforts will focus on infilling and tes�ng adjacent targets to maximize its contribu�on to the Galena Complex's produc�on profile.

The Common Shares are expected to commence trading under their exis�ng symbols on the Toronto Stock Exchange and on the NYSE American on a post-Consolida�on basis on the opening of trading on Tuesday August 26, 2025.

The Consolida�on reduced the number of Common Shares issued and outstanding from approximately 679,357,056 to approximately 271,742,692.
