About Fairchild

gold assets in mining -friendly jurisdictions across North America. The company is committed to identifying and developing high -quality
resource properties in Nevada with strong geological resource potential. Its strategy focuses on creating long -term shareholder value

Goodsprings Mining District, Nevada, an area known for historical high -grade copper-gold-PGEs mining. In more recent times, Nevada
Titan was also highlighted for its near surface Antimony and Cobalt potential. That was followed by a MOU towards the acquisition of the
Golden Arrow property in the prolific Walker Lane Shear Zone, encompassing two principal resource areas, Gold Coin and Hidden Hill, with
a combined measured + indicated and inferred resource base outlined in an NI 43 -101 report written by Mine Development Associates.
Finally, Fairchild’s Carlin Queen property, an advanced-stage gold-silver project located at the intersection of the Carlin and Midas-Hollister
gold trends. Fairchild Gold is leveraging the potential of all these three properties by utilizing the outstanding mineral resources support
Nevada provides.
