ABOUT SIGNAL GOLD

Signal Gold is advancing the Goldboro Gold Project in Nova Scotia, a significant growth project subject to a positive Feasibility Study which demonstrates an approximately 11-year open pit life of mine with average gold production of 100,000 ounces per annum and an average diluted grade of 2.26 grams per tonne gold. (Please see the 'NI 43-101 Technical Report and Feasibility Study for the Goldboro Gold Project, Eastern Goldfields District, Nova Scotia' on January 11, 2022, for further details). The Goldboro Project has significant potential for further Mineral Resource expansion, particularly towards the west along strike and at depth, and the Company has consolidated 28,525 hectares (~285 km²) of prospective exploration land in the Goldboro Gold District.

On October 10, 2024, Signal Gold announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to combine with NexGold Mining Corp.("NexGold") to create one of Canada's most advanced near-term gold developers. The combined entity will be focused on advancing NexGold's Goliath Gold Complex Project in Northern Ontario and Signal's Goldboro Project in the Goldboro Gold District in Nova Scotia. Pursuant to the definitive agreement, NexGold will acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of Signal Gold in exchange for common shares of NexGold by way of a plan of arrangement.
