RUSH GOLD COMPLETES FIELD INVESTIGATIONS AND WORLDVIEW-3 SATELLITE IMAGE ACQUISITION AT SKYLIGHT AND LEGAL TENDER PROPERTIES

Rush Gold Corp. has completed phase 1 geologic reconnaissance and WorldView-3 (WV-3) satellite alteration image acquisition at its Legal Tender and Skylight properties. The Legal Tender and Skylight properties are three kilometres apart, and both are located approximately 60 kilometres northwest of Tonopah, Nev., within the Royston Hills Republic mining district, Nye county.

The company's winter 2025 Royston Hills geologic reconnaissance, which was designed to advance gold and silver rock showings and ground truthing satellite hyperspectral anomalies, resulted in the collection of 124 surface rock grab samples. Rock samples have been submitted for gold fire assay, multielement geochemical and TerraSpec analysis to ALS Global, Vancouver, Canada. ALS is an independent ISO-IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 accredited geoanalytical laboratory. Assay results are expected early in the new year.

In addition, the company confirms that it has received notice from its satellite provider Vantor Inc. and PhotoSat that a successful cloud-free image acquisition occurred on Dec. 3, 2025. Full results of the alteration mineral mapping study area are expected in the coming days.

"The company is pleased to have successfully completed its first ground sampling campaign in Nevada at its Legal Tender and Skylight properties. We look forward to reviewing assay results in the new year, in addition to the results of the satellite alteration mineral mapping study. The integration of surface rock geochemical and satellite alteration mapping is expected to assist in the identification of potential drill targets within both properties," says Anthony Zelen, chief executive officer of Rush Gold.
