NEWS RELEASE

American Pacific Mining Provides Drilling Update and Releases New CSAMT Data Highlighting

New Vein Targets at the Tuscarora Project, Elko County, Nevada

Vancouver, British Columbia / July 14, 2022 - Ameri can Pacific Mining Corp (CSE: USGD /

OTCQX: USGDF / FWB: 1QC) (“American Pacific” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an

update on drilling and report new results from the CSAMT survey conducted at the Tuscarora Project

located in Elko County, Nevada.

Approximately 21 drillholes (~4,000 metres) of rever se circulation (“ RC ”) drilling has been completed

to-date and up to five additional holes will be com pleted in the coming weeks, including multiple hole s

to test newly defined vein targets generated from t he recently completed CSAMT survey. Additional

assay results will be released once received and interpreted.

The CSAMT survey was commissioned to identify sub-surface and hidden silica bodies and quartz vein

occurrences throughout the previously untested, newly acquired land package. The survey has identified

numerous untested vein occurrences, but two anomali es stand out as very strong quartz responses.

Neither of these anomalies has been previously drill-tested in these areas.

“The King’s Vein and the Grand Prize Vein Intersect ion with the East Pediment Vein system present us

with very strong quartz responses. This is exciting from an exploration standpoint since these are the

strongest indicators of untested veins within the e ntire land package. The Grand Prize/East Pediment i s

covered with a thin gravel veneer and is reminiscent of the South Navajo Vein response, although much

stronger,” stated American Pacific President Eric S aderholm. “Our drill plans are currently being

adjusted to test these strong anomalies which do not have surface expressions. The Grand Prize Vein has

yielded up to 21,032 grams per tonne (“ g/t ”) gold (“ Au ”) and 38,820 g/t Au from surface samples. The

East Pediment Vein returned a 1.52 metre intercept of 52.37 g/t Au in historic drilling and no drilling has

been done at East Pediment since 1998.”
