REVIVAL GOLD PROVIDES UPDATE
ON VARIOUS PROPERTY AGREEMENTS
Toronto, ON – August 31st, 2022 – Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG, OTCQX: RVLGF) (“Revival Gold” or
the “Company”), is pleased to provide an update on the status of agreements to acquire certain
property interests that comprise part of the Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project (“Beartrack -Arnett”)
located in Lemhi County, Idaho, USA.
Beartrack Property
On August 30th, 2022, Revival Gold executed an Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Agreement
and Exploration Agreement with Meridian Gold Company (“Meridian”) (a wholly owned subsidiary
of Yamana Gold Inc.) under which Revival Gold and Meridian agreed to extend the period of time
for Revival Gold to complete earn -in obligations to acquire Merid ian Beartrack Co. (owner of the
Beartrack property and related infrastructure) by two years to September 29th, 2024. In connection
with the extension, Revival Gold has committed to continue to fund certain site operating and
management costs (“O&M” costs, estimated to be approximately US$850,000 per year including
site bonding surety) and increase the required earn-in exploration spend at Beartrack from US$10
million to US$15 million (of which, approximately US$12 million had been expended as at June 30th,
2022).
The Beartrack property includes an estimated $40-50 million in site infrastructure value and hosts
the bulk of Mineral Resources at Beartrack-Arnett. Upon completion of the Meridian Beartrack Co.
acquisition (the “Acquisition”), Revival Gold will assume responsibility for site bonding. The current
face value of the Beartrack site bond is $10.2 million. Revival Gold will also be required to provide
a 1% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) royalty, an additional NSR royalty of 0.5% (terminating when the
payments of the additional royalty total $2 million) and pay the greater of $6 per troy ounce of the
total gold Mineral Resources or $15 per troy ounce of proven and probable gold Mineral Reserves
after the third anniversary of the acquisition.
Barnett Mineral Claims
On April 29th, 2022, Revival Gold paid the final US$250,000 option payment under the Barnett
Agreement (announced June 30 th, 2017 and amended April 9 th, 2020) fulfilling all requirements to
acquire a 100% interest in the Barnett mineral claims located at Beartrack-Arnett. The Barnett
mineral claims host a portion of the Haidee Mineral Resource at Beartrack-Arnett and offer the
potential to expand the Mineral Resource in that location. The Barnett mineral claims are central
to Revival Gold’s potential future heap leach re-development plans for the project.

ACE Mineral Claims
Revival Gold currently holds a 75% interest in certain other mineral claims (known as the ACE
mineral claims) located within the Beartrack-Arnett property. The ACE mineral claims are peripheral
to the known Mineral Resources at Beartrack-Arnett. The holding of this property package and the
exploration priority are under review.
“We are pleased to have extended the Beartrack property earn-in period and to have completed
the acquisition of a 100% interest in the Barnett claims”, said Hugh Agro, President and CEO. “The
Barnett claims offer exciting exploration potential and the added flexibility with the Beartrack
property earn -in will allow Revival Gold to continue to buil d overall project value through the
current turbulent market”, added Agro.
