NV Gold Announces Commencement of 2026 Drill Program at its Slumber Gold Project
August 26, 2026 - NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX)(OTCQB:NVGLF) (“NV Gold” or the “ Company”) is
pleased to announce its 2026 drill program at its 100% controlled Slumber Gold Project (“Slumber”),
located approximately 60 miles northwest of Winnemucca, Humboldt County, Nevada, USA.
“NV Gold is pleased to announce the commencement of its 2026 exploration season at its Slumber Gold Project.
The 2026 drill program will initial ly be focused on the newly -acquired lease of privately -owned land that
potentially joins the two target areas previously drilled from 2019 to 2025. The discovery of a large -scale near-
surface oxide gold deposit has become increasingly rare is Nevada in the past decade due to the intense
exploration efforts focused on this highly sought -after gold region.” commented John Watson, Chairman and
CEO of NV Gold. “Slumber advanced significantly with the 2025 drilling, clearly demonstrating its large -scale
potential. The lease acquisition of several hundred acres of private land in 2026 has focused the Company’s plan
on connecting the north (Awakening) and south (Slumber) zones. Surface mapping and sampling on this
acquisition supports the potential continuity across nearly 1.5 km of undrilled area. NV Gold is fully financed
with in excess of $2.5M in cash, a significant amount of warrants in the money, and no debt. It will be our busiest
year in our corporate history. The Slumber discovery is potentially a transformational event for the Company”
2026 Slumber Gold Project Drill Program Highlights
• The drill program will consist of up to 35 reverse circulation (“RC”) drill holes, totaling up to
8,000 m (~28,000 ft). This program is contemplated to double the drilling totals for the project,
further testing a number of promising prior intercepts that remained open to depth and along strike.
• Each RC drill hole will target near surface oxide gold mineralization to determine extent of the
interpreted 2,750m x 500+m nea r-surface silicified zone.
• During this program, the oxidized and silicified rhyolite breccias, mapped on the recently -leased
private lands will be drill -tested for the first time. If the zones connect, the resulting gold system
will be substantially enlarged.
• With the project permitted, the drill program is expected to commence September 1st, when the RC
drill rig is mobilized to site.
• Target depths for this program will extend to over 300 meters. Previous results on the Slumber and
Awakening areas have e ncountered oxide gold mineralization from outcrop to 300+ meters depth.
Please refer to NV Gold’s press release dated August 2, 2026, for additional information on recent drilling
at the Slumber Gold Project, including detail on the near surface oxide zone intersected in previous
programs.
