Width refers to drill hole intercepts, true width cannot be determined due to the uncertain geometry of mineralization.
The program is continuing to potentially expand the current resource but also define areas of significantly higher-grade
mineralization. The current program is continuing to systematically determine the orientation of the higher-grade
mineralization but also to define the extent of the mineralization which remains open. An updated resource calculation
will be completed in 2022 once all the assays have been received from the 2021 program and will incorporate the results
of the oxide expansion drilling conducted in 2017, as well as the drilling carried out in 2020. The results of over 50,000
metres of drilling are expected to be included in this update. Since drilling resumed in February, 2021, approximately
32,000 metres have been drilled in 59 holes, including holes in progress.

Hole GS 2107
Drilled on the north contact of the Dolphin intrusive and midway between GS2103 and GS2003, within the footwall
schists, it intersected a 231.3 metre intercept grading 1.22 g/t Au which lies within the interpreted main mineralized
zone and is roughly double the existing global resource grade of 0.65 g/t Au. These results continue to confirm
Freegold’s re-interpretation of potentially higher-grade zone within the existing resource.
GS2107 521.1 – 523.2m – 44 g/t Au
Hole GS2111
Collared on the north side of the Tolovana Vein zone the hole intersected 106.7 metres grading 0.97 g/t Au, and
bottomed in mineralization. The hole was terminated due to difficult drilling conditions at 541.6 metres.
Hole GS2127
Drilled in the Cleary area of the system. This hole intersected two intervals of greater that 30 g/t Au, the first 2.2 metre
interval grading 30.39 g/t Au and the second a 3 metre interval grading 36.8 g/t Au. These intercepts may correlate with
the Wyoming and Wackwitz veins. The hole also intercepted 99.6 metres of 0.74 g/t Au which is the projected down dip
extension of the Cleary Vein system. Additional holes to the south of the Cleary Vein system are planned to potentially
extend the down dip of the Cleary Hill vein system.

S2127 – 232.4 – 235.4m – 36.8 g/t Au
Key objectives for the 2021 program:
• Determining the orientation and extent of the higher-grade mineralization.
• Expanding the currently known resource and upgrading the resource categories as part of the efforts to further
advance the project through pre -feasibility, including additional environmental baseline studies, further
metallurgical test work, and cultural resource studies.
In addition, Freegold is planning to test other targets on the project that may have potential to host additional resources
and host other buried intrusives . Ground geophysics and soil sampling survey have been conducted on these areas and
further drilling is being planned to test these potential target areas.

Golden Summit was the subject of an intensive drill campaign between January 2011 and August 2013. A total of 36,159
metres were drilled and three NI 43-101 compliant resource updates were completed. In January 2016, a preliminary
economic assessment (PEA) was produced by TetraTech (Press release – January 26th, 2016).
Assay turnaround time continues to remain slow. Freegold is continuing to assay all drill core as the mineralization is not
always visibly determinable. Drill cores were cut in half using a diamond saw, with one-half placed in sealed bags for
preparation and subsequent geochemical analyses by ALS Global Ltd and/or Bureau Veritas , with sample preparation
4
carried out in Fairbanks and/or Juneau, Alaska, with subsequent analyses performed primarily using their Vancouver,
Reno and/or Hermosillo facilities. Freegold will continue to report assays as they are finalized.
Freegold is continuing to operate a full service camp at Golden Summit with stringent COVID-19 protocols in place.

Some statements in this news release contain forward -looking information, including without limitation statements as to planned
expenditures and exploration programs. These statements address future events and conditions and, as such, involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to be material ly
different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the statements. Such factors include without
limitation the completion of planned expenditures, the ability to complete exploration programs on schedule and the success o f
exploration programs. The term “Mineral Resource” used above is defined per NI 43 -101. Though Indicated Resources have been
estimated for the Project, this PEA includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are too speculative for use in defining Reserves .
Standalone economics have not been undertaken for the measured and indicated resources and as such no reserves have been
estimated for the Project. Please note that the PEA is preliminary in nature, that it includes inferred mineral resources that are
considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would allow them to be categorized as
mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the PEA will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have
demonstrated economic viability. Without limitation, statements regarding potential mineralization and resources, exploration
results, and future plans and objectives of the Company are forward looking statements that involve various risks. Actual results could
differ materially from those projected as a result of the following factors, among others: changes in the price of mineral market
conditions, risks inherent in mineral exploration, risks associated with development, construction and mining operations, t he
uncertainty of future profitability and uncertainty of access to additional capital. See Freegold’s Annual Information Form for the year
ended December 31st, 20 20 filed under Freegold’s profile at www.sedar.com for a detailed discussion of the risk fact ors associated
with Freegold’s operations. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID -19 outbreak a global health
emergency. Many governments have likewise declared that the COVID -19outbreak in their jurisdictions constitutes an emergency.
Reactions to the spread of COVID-19 have led to, among other things, significant restrictions on travel, business closures, quarantines
and a general reduction in economic activity. While these effects are expected to be temporary, the duration of the business
disruptions and related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Such public health crises can result in volatility
and disruptions in the supply and demand for various products and services, global supply chains and f inancial markets, as well as
declining trade and market sentiment and reduced mobility of people, all of which could affect interest rates, credit ratings, credit
risk and inflation. The risks to Freegold of such public health crises also include risks to employee health and safety and a slowdown
or temporary suspension of operations in geographic locations impacted by an outbreak. As a result of the COVID -19 outbreak, the
Freegold has implemented a significant COVID management program and established a full service Camp at Golden Summit in order
to attempt to mitigate risks to its employees, contractors and community. While the extent to which COVID -19 may impact the
Freegold is uncertain, it is possible t hat COVID-19 may have a material adverse effect on Freegold’s business, results of operations
and financial condition.
