NEVGOLD INCREASES LAND HOLDINGS AT CEDAR WASH BY OVER 100%
VIA CLAIM STAKING AN ADDITIONAL 4,839 ACRES
Vancouver, British Columbia – September 8, 2021 – NevGold (“NevGold” or the “Company”)
(TSXV:NAU) (OTC: NAUFF) (Frankfurt: 5E50) is pleased to announce that it has increased its land
position at the Cedar Wash project in Nevada by 4,839 acres, or over 100%, to 9,648 acres (39 square
kilometers) through low-cost, organic claim staking. These new claims are contiguous to the south of the
existing claims as seen in Figure 1. The expanded land position incorporates all prospective gold-silver
targets identified in the Cedar Wash district.

Key Highlights
• Property Size Increased Substantially: The Cedar Wash project more than doubled to 9,648 acres
or 39.0 square kilometers, compared to the previous 4,809 acres or 19.5 square kilometers.
• Positive Surface Mapping, Sampling, and Shallow Drill Data in the New Claims: As seen in
Figure 1, t he newly staked area to the south had historical surface mapping, soil and rock chip
sampling, and shallow drilling completed in prior years providing an existing geological database
to leverage. Historical results included surface sampling of up to 2.1 g/t Au in a number of areas.
Previous shallow air-track and RC drilling, all historically completed by McEwen Mining Inc.
(“McEwen Mining”), encountered gold mineralization in multiple holes including: 6.1 meters of
1.06 g/t Au, within 17.1 meters of 0.62 g/t Au; and 7.6 meters of 0.90 g/t Au, within 10.7 meters
of 0.75 g/t Au. The mineralization was intersected at or near surface.
• Underexplored Area of Nevada: The Southeast part of Nevada is underexplored compared to the
other parts of the State. Cedar Wash offers significant exploration upside and has many geological
similarities to Liberty Gold’s Goldstrike Project, which is 15 kilometers to the east in Utah and has
a greater than 1 million ounce gold resource.
• Highly Prospective Ground: Past geological and geochemical analysis has yielded positive
results, and other historical drilling completed by McEwen Mining within the large, consolidated
land package includes 10.7 meters of 2.0 g/t Au, 16.0 meters of 1.36 g/t Au, and 16.7 meters of 1.0
g/t Au, all at or near surface.
Derick Unger, Chief Geologist, stated: “We continue to be positively surprised with Cedar Wash as we
work through the historical database compiled by McEwen. It is not often that a company can increase its
land position by 100% by relatively inexpensive organic claim staking in Nevada, especially in an area with
outcropping gold mineralization. There are a number of prospective areas in the enlarged 9,648 acre project
area, and we are encouraged by what we see so far in terms of building on the initial grassroots discovery
by McEwen in 2015 to further advance and explo re the project. Going forward our focus will be to drive
towards defining drill targets for a Phase I program to test the full extents of the gold system at Cedar
Wash.”
Cedar Wash – Next Steps
As released in prior company disclosure, NevGold will systematically advance Cedar Wash with an initial
program of surface geology work inclusive of rock chip and soil sampling, surface mapping, and geophysics
to improve the geological understanding of the district.
The company is targeting a Phase I drilling program in approximately Q4 -2021 to further build on the
positive historical drill results completed by McEwen Mining , and to test the most prospective newly
identified targets.
