NEWS RELEASE

INDEPENDENCE GOLD ANNOUNCES NEW DISCOVERY AT THE LARRY VEIN SYSTEM OF 19.40M

GRADING 5.58 G/T GOLD AND 73.76 G/T SILVER AT THE 3TS PROJECT, BC

Vancouver, BC – (March 26, 2025) – Independence Gold Corp. (TSX-V: IGO) ("Independence Gold" or the

"Company") is pleased to announce the discovery of high-grade gold and silver mineralization at the Larry

Vein System at its 3Ts Project in central British Columbia. The 3Ts Project is located approximately 185

kilometres (“km”) southwest of Prince George, British Columbia and is comprised of seventeen mineral

claims covering approximately 8,840 hectares in the Nechako Plateau region of central British Columbia.

The project is situated 16 km southwest of Artemis Gold Inc.’s Blackwater Mine and covers a low -

sulphidation epithermal quartz - carbonate vein district within which nineteen individual mineralized

veins, ranging from 50 m to more than 1,100 m in strike length and with true widths up to 32 m have been

identified.

Key Highlights:

• Drill hole 3TS -25-07 intersected a system of two veins with mineralized breccia below the

microdiorite sill, returning 19.40 m grading 5.58 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold and 73.76 g/t silver,

and 15.00 m grading 3.01 g/t gold and 25.20 g/t silver. True widths are estimated to be 11.00 m

and 8.5 m respectively with the intercept occurring 210 m east of the Tommy Vein System.

• Drill hole 3TS-25-09 returned 8.0 m at 5.89 g/t gold and 25.13 g/t silver above the microdiorite

sill, with a true width of 4.75 m. This intercept was 145 m east of the Tommy Vein System.

• Compilation of historical data has provided sufficient information to directly target the Larry Vein

for the first time, with the strike length estimated to be approximately 325 m remaining open to

the northwest, southeast and at depth.

• Additional assay results from the Larry Vein are pending.

Potential of the Larry Vein

The Larry Vein, located east of the Tommy Vein System, was loosely defined by shallow historical drill

intercepts from the 1990s to early 2000s. Due to thick overburden, no surface exposure of the Larry Vein

has ever been observed. The se latest drill results confirm the presence of a significant vein system,

demonstrating that the Larry Vein has been largely overlooked in historical work. The high-grade gold and

silver values returned from 3TS -25-09, combined with the complex veining and mineralized breccia

observed in 3TS -25-07, suggest that the Larry Vein h as the potential to contribute significantly to an

updated resource model, planned for the second quarter of 2025.

Randy Turner, President and CEO of Independence Gold, commented: “The discovery of high -grade

mineralization at the Larry Vein is an exciting development for the 3Ts Project. This vein was historically

ignored due to its lack of surface exposure, but the latest results demonstrate it has significant potential.

We await additional assay results not only from the Larry Vein but also other targets we are currently

drilling.”
