Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 13, 2026) - Bravada Gold Corporation (TSXV: BVA) ("Bravada" or the "Company") announces a governance restructuring that includes the creation of a new Advisory Committee and an additional appointment to the Board of Directors.

Advisory Committee — Incumbent Directors John Kerr and Nigel Bunting will transition from the Board to the newly formed Advisory Committee, where they will be joined by Russell Ball. The Advisory Committee will advise the Board on advancing the Wind Mountain project toward development and on continued exploration and development across the Company's Nevada-based mineral properties.

New Director Appointment — The Company has appointed Zach Allwright as an additional Director, further strengthening Bravada's technical and development expertise as it advances its Nevada-based mineral property portfolio.

Lawrence Page K.C., Chairman stated, "As Bravada transitions from exploration to development in Nevada, it welcomes the addition to its management team of seasoned and successful professionals with demonstrated success in the development of mineral properties into mines.

Our Wind Mountain gold property in Nevada has been developed through exploration to the stage where mining expertise is required to advance the deposit to production. The recent appointment of Dr. Paul West-Sells as President and CEO, is now followed by the expansion of the team with the appointment of Zach Allwright and Russell Ball, both with demonstrated success in the transition of mineral properties into producing mines.

We are grateful for the service as Directors of John Kerr and Nigel Bunting who will transition as directors to a newly formed Advisory Committee to continue their support of our Company" .

In addition to the Wind Mountain property, Bravada's long-established exploration and development activities have resulted in a portfolio of seven other high-quality properties in Nevada, one of the best mining jurisdictions in the world. Most of the projects host encouraging drill intercepts of gold and already have drill targets developed.
