TORONTO, April  30, 2025  (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Probe Gold Inc. (TSX: PRB)(OTCQB: PROBF)(“Probe” or the “Company”), is pleased to provide the latest results from the Novador in-fill drill program at Monique on its 100%-owned Novador property (the “Property”) located near Val-d’Or, Quebec. The 50,000-metre winter infill drill program, initiated during the fall of 2024, will support the 2025 pre-feasibility study. Results from thirty-three (33) infill drill holes at Monique, totaling 14,045 metres, have returned thick intercepts of significant gold grades at Monique, from deeper infill drilling. (see figure 1 and table of selected drill results below).

David Palmer, President and CEO of Probe, states, “ The infill drilling program at Novador continues to yield strong results, confirming the continuity and expanding deeper gold zones at Monique. The results of the winter infill program will be instrumental in supporting ongoing resource conversion and will serve as a cornerstone of the upcoming Pre-Feasibility Study—an important milestone in advancing Novador toward development. We are making significant progress across key fronts, including permitting, resource growth, and mine plan optimization, with efforts focused on consolidating the project into fewer, larger open pits. As a result, we are steadily de-risking the project and enhancing its overall value. Backed by a robust treasury of over $50 million, we remain firmly committed to positioning Novador as a premier gold development project, capable of delivering long-term value across all market conditions. With every step forward, our confidence in Novador’s potential continues to grow, supported by a clear and defined path to production.”

These latest in-fill drilling results are confirming the gold deposit continuity at Monique. Zones at Monique remain open for significant expansion along strike and at depth.

Selected infill drill results from the Monique deposit drilling program are as follows:

(1) All the new analytical results reported in this release and in this table, are presented in core length and cut to 50 g/t Au when needed. True width is estimated between 65 to 95 % of core length. Only grade times thickness above 10.0 g/t Au * m is reported.

Figure 1: Monique Area Surface Map – Monique Gold Trend new drilling results

Mineralization intersected at Monique is mainly associated with deformation zones that cross the deposit at an orientation of 280° – 300° and a 75°- 80° dip to the north. The gold mineralization is defined by a network of quartz/carbonate/albite/±tourmaline veins and veinlets, along with disseminated pyrite hosted in altered and sheared volcanic rocks and altered diorite dykes. Mineralized zones have been defined from surface to a depth of 700 metres and vary in width from several metres to up to 100 metres. Mineralized structures modelled extend laterally up to 2,500 metres. The Monique Gold Trend zones remain open along strike and at depth.

Qualified Person

The scientific and technical content of this press release has been prepared, reviewed, and approved by Mr. Marc Ducharme, P.Geo, Vice President Exploration, 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 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 g/t 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.
