Gander Gold Corp. Provides Exploration Update on its Gander North Project in Newfoundland Gander Gold Corp. announced to provide an exploration update on its Gander North Project in Newfoundland where 28 rotary air blast ("RAB") drill holes, an exploration tool designed to prioritize first-ever diamond drilling targets, were completed in 2023. Highlights: Anomalous to significant gold mineralization was encountered in eight (8) of 11 RAB holes completed on the western side of Gander North with five (5) of these holes also intersecting mafic-ultramafic rock associated with the GRUB Line. Anomalous mineralization was encountered in 14 of the 17 RAB holes completed on the eastern side of Gander North. This initial round of RAB drilling on each side of Gander North tested only five (5) of 14 large soil geochemistry anomalies identified at this large-scale project to date. Results warrant additional follow-up exploration at these 5 anomalies ahead of potential diamond drilling. An exploration plan for the remaining 9 large soil geochemistry anomalies is being finalized. Gander Gold completed a total of 34 RAB drill holes across its Newfoundland properties in 2023 including three (3) at Lizard Pond (Gander South) where diamond drill targets have been outlined after 1 RAB hole cut 13.7 metres grading 1.06 g/t Au starting from surface. Gander Gold Corporation contracted the services of GroundTruth Exploration to conduct and manage the 2023 RAB drill program in Newfoundland. RAB drilling produces rock chip samples. A representative sample for each 5-foot (1.52m) interval of drilling was collected for analyses. Once sorted and logged, all samples were shipped to SGS Canada's prep facility in Grand Falls, NL, and final analyses were performed at SGS in Burnaby, B.C. At SGS in Grand Falls, NL, individual samples were dried, crushed and pulverized (PRP89). Analyses at SGS Burnaby consisted of a 30g Au Fire Assay (GE_FAA30V5), and a 25g sample was analysed for 49 elements by 2 Acid Leach with an ICP-MS finish (GE_ARM3V25). SGS Canada is a certified laboratory independent of Gander Gold Corporation. As part of the sampling protocol a QAQC program was adhered to and included the insertion of industry approved standards, blanks, and the insertion of field duplicates. Alternating standards, blanks and field duplicates were part of the sampling stream and amounted to six QA/QC samples per 100 samples collected. Announcement • Dec 15
Gander Gold Corp. Intersects Near Surface Gold Mineralization at Thwart Island - BLT Project Gander Gold Corp. announced preliminary results from its recently completed Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drill program at the "Islander Zone" on Thwart Island, Newfoundland. Gander's Thwart Island claims form part of the Company's larger Botwood-Laurenceton-Thwart Island (BLT) Project in the Bay of Exploits region of Newfoundland. The first-ever drilling at Thwart Island was conducted in Summer 2023 by Gander Gold and consisted of three RAB drill holes totaling 193.5 meters of drilling. Anomalous gold mineralization was intersected in all three drill holes. The first hole drilled (BLTRAB23-001) intersected three individual zones of Gold-Silver-Arsenic mineralization and ended in anomalous Gold-Silver-Arsenic mineralization (Au-Ag-As; 118ppb, 0.03ppm, 1213ppm respectively) indicating the fourth intersected zone of Au-Ag-As mineralization remains open at depth. The drillhole was collared near to two surface grab samples grading >1.0 g/t Au. The second hole drilled (BLTRAB23-002) was drilled in the vicinity of the 5939.5ppb Au-in-soil sample collected from the Islander Zone during the 2022 regional soil geochemistry program. This sample was the single highest grade gold result from the Company's approximate 40,000 soil sample program across its eight Newfoundland project areas. Anomalous Au-Ag-As-Sb mineralization starts at a downhole depth of 12.2m and continues through 19.8m. This subsurface zone of anomalous Au-As mineralization is indicative of a gold system occurring in this area and is possibly connected with the surface soil sample of 5939.5ppb Au and 654.8ppm As. The third drillhole (BLTRAB23-003) encountered anomalous Cu mineralization immediately at the bedrock interface through to the end of the drillhole. Anomalous Au-As mineralization was continuous from 18.3m - 24.4m. The Islander Zone and Thwart Island area is a developing gold prospect. Positive soil geochemistry surveys (Au-in-soil up to 5939.5ppb) and prospecting results (up to 1.23 g/t Au) accumulated to date and validated by subsurface RAB gold mineralization results has confirmed the prospectivity of the Thwart Island area. Associated with zones of gold mineralization is a strong supporting Silver-Arsenic-Antimony (Ag-As-Sb) geochemical signal, which is consistent with geochemical signals at other developing gold camps in Newfoundland.

Gander Gold Corp. Expands Lizard Pond Claims - Gander South Project Gander Gold Corp. announced that has signed a binding Letter of Intent ("the LOI") to purchase additional claims contiguous to and in the immediate area of its Lizard Pond claims, part of the larger Gander South Project. Gander previously announced 2023 Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drill results from the Lizard Pond Claims which identified significant gold bearing mineralization across all 65 meters of each of the three RAB drill holes at Lizard Pond. The three licenses acquired by Gander were previously collectively referred to by Puddle Pond as the "Great Bend Project," which hosts at least five known historic gold occurrences, with grab samples ranging as high as 22.2 g/t Au (Stares, 2005). High grade gold on the property is associated with quartz-arsenopyrite-carbonate veining. The claims are located at the intersection of several major regional structures, including the Dog Bay Line, and are contiguous to New Found Gold's Queensway South Project to the East and South. New Found Gold undertook an inaugural 7,255 meter diamond drill program at Queensway South in 2022, from which they reported 27 of 33 holes hit significant Au mineralization, with visible gold present in 10 holes across 4 target areas. Surface exploration activities and ongoing diamond drilling has been performed by New Found Gold at Queensway South in 2023. Gander Gold President and CEO, Mr. Mark Scott, commented, "Gander Gold is very pleased to announce the addition of 26 new claims to original 42 claims at Lizard Pond, where Gander recently identified a significant gold bearing system, with gold mineralization present throughout all 65 meters of each Of the project's three 2023 RAB drill holes. The new claims contain historic high grade gold occurrences and extend the Lizard Pond claims along the interpreted strike of the system targeted by this year's RAB drilling. The local geology and structures are favorable, with the Dog Bay Line and Appleton Fault in close proximity to claims. Gander looks forward to follow up exploration and drilling at Lizard Pond in 2024". Under the LOI, Gander has agreed to purchase from Puddle Pond Resources Inc. ("Puddle Pond"), three exploration licenses, comprised of 26 total claims in Newfoundland. Gander will pay Puddle Pond a total of CAD 25,000 cash ($15,000 on signing of final purchase agreement & $10,000 by January 15, 2024), plus CAD 50,000 worth of Gander common shares as of the date of the signing of the final purchase agreement. Puddle Pond will retain a 2% Net Smelter Return royalty on the claims in the amount, half of which may be repurchased by Gander at any time for CAD 500,000. Puddle Pond will be entitled to a one-time bonus payment of 500,000 Gander shares should Gander delineate a NI 43-101 compliant resource of 200,000 ounces of gold on the newly acquired claims.

Gander Gold Discovers Significant Gold System At Lizard Pond Claims - Gander South Project Gander Gold Corporation announced that its recently-completed Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drill program at its Lizard Pond claims, part of the larger Gander South Project, has identified significant gold bearing mineralization across all 65 meters of each of the three RAB drill holes at Lizard Pond. The gold mineralization intersected in all three RAB drillholes is hosted within lithology that is consistent with rocks that define the Gander Belt - Dog Bay Line, which defines the western boundary of the Appleton Fault System. The Appleton Fault System has gained prominence as host to the tremendous gold mineralization defined by neighboring Newfound Gold. Newfound Gold's Queensway project is immediately adjacent to the eastern and southern boundary of Gander's Lizard Pond property. The gold mineralization occurring immediately from surface in drillhole LZPRAB23-002 and LZPRAB23-003 correlates directly with upper percentile values generated from soil geochemistry and prospecting rock geochemistry results in the immediate area of both drillholes. The continuous elevated gold mineralization in LZPRAB23-001 (341ppb Au /24.4m) starting at 0.0m correlates with several prospecting rock geochemistry results in the immediate area (result that range from 0.073 g/t Au - 1.04 g/t Au). Several upper percentile soil geochemistry anomalies remain untested at the LZP property. All data collected thus far at the LZP property suggests a significant gold system occurring within the property area. Gander Gold's Summer 2023 RAB drill program saw drill crews and associated geotechnical staff initiate the first ever drill programs at three of Gander Gold'sNewfoundland projects- Lizard Pond, BLT Thwart Island, and Gander North. In addition to the three holes at Lizard Pond, three RAB holes were drilled at the Islander Zone of BLT -Thwart Island, for a total of 193.5 metres. The largest drill program of the summer was conducted at Gander North, where a total of 28 holes were drilled. This maiden RAB program was designed to prioritize the most prospective areas for initial diamond drilling. Results are pending for both BLT -Thwart Island and Gander North drill programs, and at each property, multiple untested target areas remain for a further phase of RAB drill testing and/or diamond drilling.
