Extensive Soil Survey Underway at Riley Gold’s Pipeline West/Clipper
Gold Project Adjacent to Cortez Complex
NEWS RELEASE
Vancouver, B.C. September 29, 2022 – Riley Gold Corp. (TSX.V: RLYG) (OTCQB: RLYGF) (“Riley Gold” or
the “Company”) is pleased to announce that a 1,000-sample soil survey program, covering approximately 3.8
square kilometres (“sqkm”), is underway at its Pipeline West/Clipper Gold Project (“ PWC”) located in Lander
County, Nevada. Riley Gold’s land package consists of approximately 24.7 sqkm of unpatented mining claims and
patented (fee) lands in the heart of the Cortez section of the Battle Mountain – Eureka Trend.
Soil Sampling:
Riley Gold’s extended review of the PWC data includ ed historical soil and lithic sampling surveys completed by
previous operators. The Company has identified that the historical surveys have open-ended gold in soil anomalies
within the PWC prospective target area depicted by the red ellipse (Figure 1). As a result, Riley Gold has initiated
an extensive soil sample program to complete those areas not previously covered. The new 3.8 sqkm soil grid
sample area also partially overlaps the historical surveys in order to level /harmonize results and gain better
information from a more modern and complete geochemical analyses . Beyond gold anomalies, there are other
locally anomalous pathfinder elements in the current data set that include: t hallium, mercury, antimony, and
arsenic. The soil survey program is being conducted by North American Exploration, from Layton, Utah.
Additionally, the new soil survey will augment geophysical surveys (see below and Figure 2) which will aid in drill
targeting expected in 2023.

Geophysical modeling Augmented by Soil Grid:
Geophysical data review and modeling were conducted by Mr. Chet Lide, VP & Managing Geophysicist of Zonge
International in Reno, Nevada, and the Riley Gold team.
One such geophysical survey that will be aided by the soil survey (Figure 2) is a historical gravity survey (ca.2005,
conducted by Zonge International of Reno, Nevada). The map shows the Horizontal Gradient of the Complete
Bouguer Anomaly, which e mphasizes density contrasts . Warm colors denote zones of higher gradients in the
gravity and are here interpreted as high angle faults or steep ly dipping contacts. Note the strong northwesterly
trend within the red ellipse. Overlapping, northwest -trending geochemical (soil samples) and geophysical
anomalies (from Gravity, CSAMT, and Aero Magnetic survey) provide a strong indication of prospective drill targets
along this 3-kilometre northwesterly trend.

results, performance, prospects and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the exploration program at PWC, including results of
historical drilling, sampling, geophysics, interpretations and future exploration plans at PWC including the sample
soil survey . Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward- looking statements
include, but are not limited to, variations in the nature, quality and quantity of any mineral deposits that may be
located, the Company's inability to obtain any necessary permits, consents or authorizations required for its
