Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Information
This news release contains "forward-looking statements" and "forward-looking information" (collectively, "
forward-looking statements
") within
the meaning of Canadian and United States securities legislation, including the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All
statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this news release relate to,
among other things: the advancement of the Tonopah West project towards development, including the acceleration of permitting and de-risking
initiatives at the Tonopah West project through key permitting and pre-development initiatives; and the intention to complete an updated Preliminary
Economic Assessment on the Tonopah West project in the first quarter of 2026.
These forward-looking statements reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events and are necessarily based upon a number of
assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company, are inherently subject to significant operational, business, economic and regulatory
uncertainties and contingencies. These assumptions include, among other things: conditions in general economic and financial markets; accuracy of
assay results; geological interpretations from drilling results, timing and amount of capital expenditures; performance of available laboratory and
other related services; future operating costs; the historical basis for current estimates of potential quantities and grades of target zones; the
availability of skilled labour and no labour related disruptions at any of the Company's operations; no unplanned delays or interruptions in scheduled
activities; all necessary permits, licenses and regulatory approvals for operations are received in a timely manner; the ability to secure and maintain
title and ownership to properties and the surface rights necessary for operations; and the Company's ability to comply with environmental, health
and safety laws. The foregoing list of assumptions is not exhaustive.
The Company cautions the reader that forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may
cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements contained in this
news release and the Company has made assumptions and estimates based on or related to many of these factors. Such factors include, without
limitation: the timing and content of work programs; results of exploration activities and development of mineral properties; the interpretation and
uncertainties of drilling results and other geological data; receipt, maintenance and security of permits and mineral property titles; environmental and
other regulatory risks; project costs overruns or unanticipated costs and expenses; availability of funds; failure to delineate potential quantities and
grades of the target zones based on historical data; general market, political, economic and industry conditions; and those factors identified under
the caption "Risks Factors" in the Company's most recent Annual Information Form.
Forward-looking statements are based on the expectations and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made. The
assumptions used in the preparation of such statements, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be imprecise and,
as such, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statements
were made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements included in this news release if these
beliefs, estimates and opinions or other circumstances should change, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
