Company Overview

Revival Gold Inc. is a Canadian-based mining company pursuing a revival in U.S. gold production through two advanced-stage brownfield heap-leach projects: the PEA-stage Mercur Gold Project in Utah and the PFS-stage Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project in Idaho. The company controls 100% interest in core claims across 13,500 ha, with combined pit-constrained mineral resources of 3.2 Moz gold in Measured & Indicated categories and 2.8 Moz Inferred, offering pure gold leverage in top-tier jurisdictions.​

Former producers with proven infrastructure, these assets enable low-capex restarts targeting over 160 koz annual gold production initially, scaling to >250 koz with high-grade underground potential. Revival is advancing both projects through drilling, engineering, and permitting, with Mercur on a fast-track 2-year permitting path post-PFS. Listed on TSX-V (RVG) and OTCQX (RVLGF), the company is backed by institutions like EMR Capital and Dundee Corporation holding 54% of shares.

Opportunity

Revival Gold presents a compelling low-capex U.S. gold opportunity with Mercur's 2025 PEA delivering after-tax NPV5% of $295M, 27% IRR, 95.6 koz Au/year over 10 years at $2,175/oz gold, with $208M pre-production capex and $1,205/oz cash costs. Beartrack-Arnett's 2023 PFS adds $226M NPV5%, 43% IRR, 65.3 koz Au/year over 8 years at $1,238/oz AISC and $109M initial capex.​

Trading at 0.24x P/NAV ($521M combined NPV5%) versus peers' 0.68x median, Revival offers superior leverage to gold prices (e.g., Mercur NPV $753M at $3,000/oz). Positioned in Idaho and Utah—Top-25 global jurisdictions—the projects benefit from proximity to infrastructure, supportive communities, and ongoing exploration with three rigs confirming resource expansion (0.70 g/t Au average intercepts at Mercur).​

ESG strengths include brownfield redevelopment minimizing new disturbance, rapid leach kinetics (75% recovery), and semi-arid locations reducing water risks, positioning Revival for efficient, responsible production amid rising gold demand.​

Summary

Management Team

Revival Gold is led by proven mining executives with track records at majors and successful developers. CEO & Director Hugh Agro, founder, brings EVP experience from Kinross Gold and VP roles at Deutsche Bank Global Metals & Mining. VP Engineering & Development John Meyer, P.Eng., oversaw projects at Perpetua Resources, Kinross, and Barrick.​

CFO Lisa Ross contributes finance expertise from Kirkland Lake Gold and Kinross, while VP Corporate Development & IR Scott Trebilcock drove M&A at Mandalay and Nevsun Resources. Non-Executive Chairman Tim Warman, ex-CEO of Fiore Gold, guides strategy alongside directors like Robert Chausse (ex-CFO New Gold), Wayne Hubert (ex-CEO Andean Resources, $3.5B sale), and Tony Manini (EMR Capital co-founder).​

This team, with technical QPs like Chief Geologist Dan Pace (Regis Mem. SME), ensures de-risked advancement from exploration through feasibility and operations.​

Growth Strategy

Revival Gold's phased strategy restarts Mercur heap-leach (Phase 1: 95 koz Au/year) within 2 years of permitting, adds Beartrack-Arnett heap-leach (Phase 2: +65 koz/year), then taps Joss underground high-grades (Phase 3-4: >250 koz total). Ongoing 2025 programs—13km drilling at Mercur, 3,900m at Joss, geochem surveys—target resource growth in underexplored trends.​

Leveraging past-production infrastructure (roads, power, ADR plants), the approach minimizes capex and timelines. Next steps include RC/core drilling, met column testing, geotech studies, baseline data, and PFS/FS for Mercur, plus permitting prep at Beartrack-Arnett. Strategic backing from EMR Capital and Dundee supports funding, with openness to partnerships for optimal value.​

In premier Western U.S. districts, Revival emphasizes operational synergies, community support, and environmental efficiency for sustainable scaling.​

Details

Background and Current Activity

Revival Gold was founded in 2017 with the consolidation of a land position in Idaho, USA.

Revival Gold struck an arrangement with Yamana Gold, to acquire the Beartrack land position. The Beartrack property includes road access, an active powerline to site, water treatment plant and mothballed ADR gold processing facility.

Over the course of five years, Revival Gold has completed extensive core drilling across the property position and in 2022 outlined a resource of 4 million ounces of gold. This makes Beartrack-Arnett the second largest gold discovery in the US in the past decade.

To-date, Revival Gold’s “finding cost” is less than US$5 per ounce of gold in resource.

Together with estimated past gold production from placer and hard rock mining, the total gold endowment at Beartrack-Arnett is five million ounces of gold and the deposits remain open for further discovery.

Subsequent to releasing its most recent mineral resource estimate for the project, Revival Gold drilled 5,400 meters in 22 infill and exploration core drill holes during the 2022 field season at Beartrack-Arnett.

The follow-up exploration drilling in the high-grade Joss underground zone intersected 11.4 meters grading 10.1 g/t gold within 115.4 meters grading 3.5 g/t gold approximately 200 meters below previously known mineralization.

At the Haidee near surface oxide deposit, infill, and resource expansion drilling continued to de-risk the project ahead of mine planning for a Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS). Drill results included 1.5 g/t gold over 15.8 meters and 1.07 g/t gold over 18 meters at Haidee.

As at the end of 2022, Revival Gold’s phase one restart PFS was 70% complete and the PFS is due mid-2023. Technical studies completed to-date in support of the PFS include an eighteen-month metallurgical program on 2.7 MM tonnes of sample material in twelve column leach tests with results indicating recoveries in line with, or better than anticipated for the heap leach phase of the project; and geotechnical studies to advance open pit and leach pad design criteria with results pointing to potential improvements and enhancements to engineering design.

Revival Gold consolidated 100% ownership of the Arnett land position with the execution of final property earn-in and purchase rights. The company also continued to build team competency and capabilities.

Revival Gold has a current cash balance of about C$3 MM and enjoys investor support with institutions (including Donald Smith Value Fund, Gold2000/Konwave, Adrian Day Asset Management and US Global) owning about 40% while management and advisors own approximately 10%.

Next Steps

Revival Gold is focused on completing its PFS on a first-phase restart of heap leach operations at Beartrack-Arnett in the first half of 2023.

The company is targeting 65 to 75,000 ounces of gold production per year over a 7 to 9 year mine life.

Additionally, Revival Gold will complete an updated Mineral Resource estimate incorporating both heap leach and mill resources.

Meanwhile, exploration activities continue with Revival Gold’s exploration team targeting additional near-surface oxide gold mineralization at Arnett and high-grade mill material along the main Pather Creek Shear Zone at Beartrack.

Several new oxide target areas have been intified and remain untested by Revival Gold at Arnett and the the statilite deposit at Haiee remains opein in all directions. Mineralization on the Pather Creek Shear Zone trend is open to the north and south and at depth.

Financial Overview

As of December 2025, Revival Gold maintains a solid position with 272.5M basic shares (321.8M fully diluted), C$0.70 share price, C$191M market cap, and ~C$19M cash. Combined projects yield $521M after-tax NPV5% at $2,175/oz Au (Mercur $295M, Beartrack-Arnett $226M), with leverage to upside ($1.24B at $3,000/oz).​

Mercur requires $208M pre-production capex for 951 koz recoverable gold over 10 years; Beartrack-Arnett $109M initial for 410 koz reserves. Low AISC ($1,238-1,363/oz) and strip ratios (2.8:1) enhance cash flow potential, with ~22 oz gold exposure per 1,000 shares. Analyst coverage from Paradigm Capital, Beacon Securities, and Velocity Trade underscores value at 0.24x P/NAV.​

Financing will blend equity, debt, and partners, capitalizing on de-risked studies and drilling catalysts for production funding.​

Shareholder Breakdown

Risk Factors and Mitigation

Revival Gold proactively addresses development risks standard to pre-production miners. Commodity price volatility is mitigated by low costs ($1,205/oz cash at Mercur) and sensitivity (11% IRR floor at $1,800/oz), plus 75% heap recoveries confirmed in testing.​

Permitting timelines (2 years at Mercur) leverage brownfield status and top jurisdictions, with baseline studies underway. Capital needs are managed via strong backers (54% institutional) and phased approach reducing upfront outlay. Exploration risks are offset by 280km drilling history and 2025 programs confirming grades/metallurgy (79% AuCN/AuFA ratio).​

Operational challenges like metallurgy and geotech are tackled through third-party studies (Kappes Cassidy, RESPEC) and QPs. NI 43-101 compliance, royalties (avg. 2.1%), and public filings ensure transparency, positioning Revival to navigate uncertainties effectively.​

Conclusion

Revival Gold Inc. stands poised to revive U.S. gold production with multi-ounce heap-leach assets in elite jurisdictions, targeting 160+ koz/year at low capex and costs. Trading at a 65% P/NAV discount, it offers asymmetric upside to gold prices, exploration success, and de-risking milestones.​

Seasoned leadership, institutional support, and phased growth—from Mercur permitting to Joss underground—drive long-term value. With brownfield advantages, supportive districts, and ESG-aligned restarts, Revival delivers leveraged exposure to gold while prioritizing responsible development for investors seeking U.S.-focused growth.
