PROBE GOLD INTERSECTS HIGH-GRADE GOLD IN DRILLING AT THE BEAUFOR GOLD DEPOSIT, NOVADOR PROJECT, QUEBEC

Probe Gold Inc. has provided the last set of results from the Beaufor deposit resource drill program completed by Monarch Mining Corp. before the acquisition by the company last April. The Beaufor property is part of the Courvan trend on Probe's 100-per-cent-owned Novador property near Val d'Or, Que.

Highlights:

• New multiple high-grade gold intercepts within and surrounding the recently acquired Beaufor gold deposit, which is situated along the company's Courvan trend.
• High-grade intercepts returned up to 20.2 grams per tonne Au (gold) over 3.9 metres (cut) or 36.8 g/t Au over 3.9 metres (uncut), 4.1 g/t Au over 17.4 metres (cut) or 7.8 g/t Au over 17.4 metres (uncut) at surface in zone W.
• Other high-grade assays results include 4.6 g/t Au over 26.7 metres and 14.5 g/t Au over 4.2 metres (cut) or 31.9 g/t Au over 4.2 metres (uncut) at depth in zone 140.
• Drilling was completed prior to the property acquisition last April and results will be included in a new updated mineral resource estimate, to be released soon.
• Results indicate strong potential for expansion and growth in near-surface mineralization located close to existing mine infrastructure.

The results from 103 drill holes, totalling 17,952 metres returned significant high-grade mineralized intersections from underground at Beaufor. Gold zones range from near surface to a depth of approximately 350 metres in the upper part of the deposit and from approximately 650 to 1,050 metres in the lower part of Beaufor deposit. The results confirm the potential extension and continuity of high-grades laterally and at depth of the W and 140 zones and deeper M1, Q and QF zones.

The Beaufor gold deposit is currently undergoing a mineral resource estimate (MRE) update that is scheduled to be released shortly. A new exploration and expansion drilling program is scheduled to begin in September at Novador, which will include near-surface targets at Beaufor.

David Palmer, president and chief executive officer of Probe, states: "We are highly encouraged by the results from the Beaufor property. The drilling has confirmed both the continuity and potential for expansion of the high-grade zones laterally and at depth in the W and 140 zones. Beaufor was a recent, low-cost acquisition that was part of our consolidation strategy and, along with the McKenzie Break and Croinor properties, is displaying great potential for future growth based on these drill results and our new geological modelling, we are now planning a follow-up drill that will focus on near-surface targets. As part of the Novador project, the Beaufor gold deposit is currently undergoing a mineral resource update and will be part of the updated mineral resource estimate for all of our Val d'Or East properties, which is expected to be released soon."

The Beaufor gold deposit spans approximately 1.5 km of strike length, 900 metres of width and 1,200 metres of depth. The property currently hosts a historic, high-grade, measured and indicated gold resource of 219,200 ounces of gold at 5.3 g/t and inferred mineral resource of 122,500 ounces of gold at 4.7 g/t (source: Monarch NI 43-101 technical report Beaufor Gold -- July, 2021). The property is easily accessible via Highway 117 and a gravel road and is located 25 kilometres east of Val d'Or. It has surface mining rights and infrastructure, including underground developments descending to 900 metres below the surface. This further consolidates the Courvan gold trend, which includes the Courvan, Senore and Beaufor deposits. The trend contains significant exploration upside, which will be part of the exploration and resource expansion drill program going forward in 2024 and 2025.

Selected new drill results from the Beaufor deposit drilling program are as shown in the attached table.

The Beaufor deposit is located within the Bourlamaque batholith at the eastern contact with the Dubuisson formation. The Bourlamaque batholith is a synvolcanic, quartz granodiorite intrusion locally cut by fine-grained diorite dikes and is a major geological feature of the Val d'Or mining camp. Gold mineralization occurs in quartz-tourmaline-pyrite veins associated with shear zones dipping moderately south resulting from the filling of shear and extension fractures. Veins show a close spatial association with mafic dikes intruding the granodiorite.

About Probe's Novador project

Since 2016, Probe Gold has been consolidating its land position in the highly prospective Val d'Or East area in the province of Quebec with a district-scale land package of 685 square kilometres that represents one of the largest landholdings in the Val d'Or mining camp. The Novador project represents one property block of 175 square kilometres that hosts three past-producing mines (Beliveau mine, Bussiere mine and Monique mine) and contains over 95 per cent of the company's gold resources in Val d'Or East. Novador is situated in a politically stable and low-cost mining environment that hosts numerous active producers and mills.

Val d'Or properties include gold resources totalling 3,793,900 ounces in the measured and indicated category and 1,418,700 ounces in the inferred category along all trends and deposits (news release dated July 19, 2023).

The scientific and technical content of this press release has been prepared, reviewed and approved by Marc Ducharme, PGeo, vice-president of exploration of the company, who is a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 -- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (NI 43-101).

Quality control

During the last drilling program, assay samples were taken from the NQ core by sawing the drill core in half, with one-half sent to a certified commercial laboratory and the other half retained for future reference. A strict QA/QC (quality assurance/quality control) program was applied to all samples, which includes insertion of mineralized standards and blank samples for each batch of 20 samples. The gold analyses were completed by fire assayed with an atomic absorption finish on 50 grams of materials. Repeats were carried out by fire assay followed by gravimetric testing on each sample containing 3.0 grams per tonne gold or more. Total gold analyses (metallic sieve) were carried out on the samples which presented a great variation of their gold contents or the presence of visible gold.

The drilling results obtained from Monarch Mining Corp. and QA/QC sampling protocol is as follows: the drilled core is sawed into equal halves along its main axis and shipping one of the halves to ALS Canada or Agat Laboratories in Val d'Or, Que., for assaying. The samples are crushed, pulverized and assayed by fire assay, with an atomic absorption finish. Samples exceeding 10 g/t Au are reassayed using the gravity method and samples containing visible gold are assayed using the metallic screen method. Monarch uses a comprehensive QA/QC protocol, including the insertion of standards, blanks and duplicates.
