Avanti Gold intercepts 3.85 m at 12.30 g/t Au and 3.55 m at 7.73 g/t Au at Akyanga

HIGHLIGHTS

Ongoing 2026 Phase 1 drilling at the Akyanga Deposit continues to intersect multiple zones of gold mineralization within and below the US$1,500/oz pit shell used to constrain the current Mineral Resource Estimate.

MSDD0147 returned multiple higher-grade intervals, including:

3.55 m at 7.73 g/t Au from 170.15 m; including 2.10 m at 12.50 g/t Au from 170.60 m;

3.85 m at 12.30 g/t Au from 274.7 m; Including 2.85 at 16.58 g/t Au from 274.70 m;

2.84 m at 6.12 g/t Au from 288.23 m; Including 0.97 m at 15.35 g/t Au from 288.23 m; and

1.10 m at 17.58 g/t Au from 320.70 m.

MSDD0150 returned:

6.00 m at 1.04 g/t Au from 109.00 m;

3.00 m at 5.38 g/t Au from 184.00 m, Including 0.90 m at 12.22 g/t Au from 184.00 m; and

5.40 m at 1.81 g/t Au from 189.85 m, Including 0.85 m at 5.39 g/t Au from 189.85 m

The results provide additional geological and grade information across the Akyanga mineralized system and support continued follow-up drilling aimed at testing mineralization within and below the current pit-constrained Mineral Resource.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 26, 2026) - Avanti Gold Corp. (CSE: AGC) (FSE: X370) (OTCQB: AVTGF) (" Avanti " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce additional assay results from its 2026 Phase 1 drilling program at the Akyanga Deposit, part of the Company's Misisi Gold Project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC"). Diamond drill holes MSDD0147 and MSDD0150 intersected multiple zones of gold mineralization within and below the limits of the US$1,500/oz pit shell used to constrain the current Akyanga Mineral Resource Estimate. The results include several higher-grade intervals and provide additional geological and grade information to support the Company's interpretation of the Akyanga mineralized system and planning of follow-up drilling.
