Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 20, 2022) -
Bravada Gold
Corporation
(TSXV: BVA) (FSE: BRTN) (OTCQB: BGAVF) (the "Company" or "Bravada") has
received assay results for the three deep reverse-circulation holes drilled during 2022. The holes tested
below a banded vein zone discovered in Q4 2020 beneath mine waste and other overburden at the
Feeder target, located approximately 450m south of the Wind Open Pit and where hole WM20-102
intersected
1.5 metres of 269.0g/t Ag and 0.404g/t Au
within a thicker interval of banded quartz
veining with anomalous gold and silver. The three 2022 holes intersected zones of low-grade
disseminated gold and silver within the Truckee Formation, which is the host for the current resource of
disseminated oxide gold north of the Feeder target. However, the banded quartz vein zone did not
persist to the depths tested. Below disseminated mineralization in the Truckee Formation, however,
many vein zones were encountered in the holes which are enriched in manganese, barium, tungsten,
nickel, and zinc.
President Joe Kizis commented,
"It may be that the banded quartz veins intersected during 2020 and
2021 at shallower depths than we tested in 2022 are a result of boiling of a younger, and possibly less
gold-rich hydrothermal fluid than the fluids responsible for the large, disseminated mineralization
farther north. The widespread manganese-rich zones that we encountered deep during this program
are very similar to late-stage black manganese carbonate veins that are unmineralized and cut gold
mineralization in the Wind Pit. We now will direct our full attention at Wind Mountain to de-risking the
disseminated oxide gold resource towards production with the next important step being the
independent, updated Resource and PEA that is now well underway with results expected early in Q4
2022."

Figure 2.
Variations in geochemistry are apparent between shallow precious-metal-enriched zones and
deeper zones, with a possible vector to an upwelling source of hotter temperature fluids to the west.
Precious-metal-rich zones in these holes are strongly silicified with relatively barren, clay-rich horizons
above and between them.

About Bravada
Bravada is an exploration company with a portfolio of high-quality properties in Nevada, one of the best
mining jurisdictions in the World. Bravada has successfully identified and advanced properties with the
potential to host high-margin deposits while successfully attracting partners to fund later stages of project
development. Bravada's value is underpinned by a substantial gold and silver resource with a positive
PEA at Wind Mountain, and the Company has significant upside potential from possible new
discoveries at its exploration properties.
Since 2005, the Company signed 32 earn-in joint-venture agreements for its properties with 19 publicly
traded companies, as well as a similar number of property-acquisition agreements with private
individuals. Bravada currently has 10 projects in its portfolio, consisting of 810 claims for approximately
6,500 ha in two of Nevada's most prolific gold trends. Most of the projects host encouraging drill
intercepts of gold and already have drill targets developed. Several videos are available on the
Company's website that describe Bravada's major properties, answering commonly asked investor
questions. Simply click on this link
