Blossom Gold Reports Positive Exploration Results at Rosebud Project

TORONTO, Sept. 24, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Blossom Gold Inc. (formerly, 1290448 B.C. Ltd.) has announced further results from its ongoing 2026 exploration program at the Rosebud Open-Pit Heap-Leach Project in Pershing County, Nevada. The company is pleased with the findings, which continue to expand the known mineralized system around the historic mine workings.

In the South Zone, the company reported a significant intersection of 44.8 meters at 1.22 grams of gold per ton (gAu/t) from 149.8 meters, with a higher-grade interval of 3.2 meters at 5.06 gAu/t from 181.8 meters. This result confirms the presence of thick gold mineralization surrounding the historic south mined zones and extending up-dip along the South Ridge Fault Zone.

Near-surface oxide zones also yielded positive results. Reverse circulation drilling (RC26-009) intersected 60.1 meters at 0.33 gAu/t from the surface, including 19.6 meters at 0.68 gAu/t from 40.5 meters. Another RC hole (RC26-010) intersected 14.6 meters at 0.24 gAu/t in the oxidized domain of the South Zone.

In the East Zone, a diamond drill hole (BG26-042) intersected 106.8 meters at 0.42 gAu/t from 74.8 meters, including 24.2 meters at 0.72 gAu/t from 156.0 meters. This supports the presence of a broad halo of gold mineralization around the historic mine workings and extends south and west along strike towards the South Zone.

The company also reported results from a maiden Northwest Zone hole (BG26-033), which intersected 18.5 meters at 0.20 gAu/t from 38.9 meters, starting at the upper bedrock contact. This may indicate a potential shallow zone of mineralization extending across the north part of the deposit.

Blossom Gold Inc. currently has four rigs operating, with 11,585 meters (38,000 feet) remaining in the 2026 surface program. The 8,230 meters (27,000 feet) underground infill program is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026. The company is also focused on expanding and upgrading the existing inferred open-pit resource, which currently stands at 70.8 million tons at 0.018 opt Au (0.62 gAu/t) and 0.189 opt Ag (6.49 gAg/t), for a total of 1.28 million ounces of gold and 13.4 million ounces of silver.

The company is advancing the 2026 Rosebud exploration program, which includes continued surface drilling with four drill rigs, with a priority on resource expansion and infill holes. The program is expected to inform the updated Mineral Resource Estimate, which is expected in the first quarter of 2027.
