ICG Silver & Gold expands at Tuscarora district, Nevada

6 claims, ~120 additional acres staked, bringing total asset package to over 10,100 acres Close proximity to Nevada Gold Mines LLC on West Zone of the District 39 rock chip hand samples submitted for assay Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 29, 2026) - ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. (CSE: ICG) (FSE: JI0) (OTC Pink: ICGSF) ("ICG" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has staked six additional unpatented mineral claims totaling approximately 120 acres within the Tuscarora District in Elko County, Nevada. The newly acquired area, designated the "TJ" prospect, is considered prospective for epithermal gold-silver mineralization based on mapped Eocene intrusive rocks, favorable structural architecture, and encouraging first-hand geological observations from recent field reconnaissance. The Company anticipates completing additional sampling and mapping work locally to further define it as a drill target.

The principal geological feature within the northeast trending TJ prospect is a series of Eocene-age porphyritic rhyolite to rhyodacite dikes and related intrusive bodies hosted in Paleozoic sediments 2 . These intrusive rocks crosscut Paleozoic sedimentary rocks and older thrust-fault structures, creating a favorable setting for structural preparation and hydrothermal fluid flow (see Figure 1). "Adding these six claims expands ICG's exposure to another prospective portion of the Tuscarora District," said Korbon McCall, VP of Exploration "The combination of Eocene intrusive activity, older thrust-fault architecture, hydrothermal brecciation, silicification, and multiple stages of infill is consistent with the type of geological preparation we look for when evaluating epithermal gold-silver targets.

With 39 samples now awaiting assay results, we expect the analytical data to help prioritize follow-up exploration across the newly acquired ground." Recent field observations by Company geologists identified hydrothermal brecciation, localized rounding and reworking of breccia fragments following initial brecciation, silicification of the host rocks and breccia matrix, and later-stage silica and mineral infill within fractures, open spaces, and breccia voids (see Images 1 & 2).

The samples have been submitted for laboratory analysis, and assay results are pending.

Update on Phase 1 Drill Program The Company is pleased to announce that assays from initial drilling for the Phase 1 Drill Program will be available in the coming weeks and are on schedule as originally described in the Company's news release dated July 6, 2026 . Quality Assurance and Quality Control Samples are collected under the supervision of Company personnel, securely sealed and transported under chain-of-custody procedures to ALS Global Laboratories in Elko, Nevada, for sample preparation and analysis. Samples are prepared using the ALS method PREP-31Y, whereby the sample is crushed to a target of 70% passing 2 millimeters, a 250-gram subsample is obtained using a rotary splitter, and the split is pulverized to a target of 85% passing 75 microns.

Gold is analyzed using Au-GRA21, consisting of a 30-gram fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Multi-element analysis is completed using ME-MS61, a four-acid digestion with an ICP-MS finish that provides near-total recovery for a broad suite of elements. The Company's quality assurance and quality control program includes regular insertion of certified reference materials, blanks and duplicate samples into the sample stream.

Analytical results and laboratory quality-control data are reviewed and validated by Company personnel before public disclosure. Corporate Update The Company is pleased to announce it has engaged German Mining Networks GmbH (" GMN ") to provide investor relations and shareholder communications services, including investor and shareholder scheduling, communications and assistance with roadshows. GMN is expected to provide the Company with the opportunity to broaden its national and international reach by way of introductions to investors in Europe.
