Toronto, Ontario – September 7, 2023 - Evergold Corp. (TSX-V: EVER, OTC: EVGUF, WKN: A2PTHZ) (“Evergold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement financing for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $1,500,000 through the issuance of a combination of flow-through units (“FT Units”) at a price of $0.06 per FT Unit and hard-dollar units of the Company (“HD Units”) at a price $0.055 per HD Unit (the “Offering”).  It is expected that the majority of the gross proceeds from the sale of the FT Units will be used to support first-ever drilling of the newly optioned DEM Property (news, August 2, 2023), which hosts a large-scale copper-gold-silver porphyry target defined by multiple supporting data sets. Further details on the DEM prospect may be found on the Company’s website at www.evergoldcorp.ca/projects/dem-property/ and in a NI 43-101 technical report entitled “Technical Report on the DEM Property” dated August 30, 2023, posted thereon and on the Company’s issuer profile on SEDAR+.

In connection with the Offering, the Company has entered into a fiscal advisory agreement with Canaccord Genuity Corp. (“Canaccord”). Subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”), the Company shall compensate Canaccord in the amount of $25,000, payable in hard-dollar units of the Company (the “Compensation Units”) to be issued at C$0.055 per unit with the same terms as the Offering. In addition, finder’s fees in cash or securities, or a combination of both, may be payable by Evergold in connection with the Offering, subject to the rules of the TSXV.

Financing Details:

Each FT Unit will be comprised of one (1) common share of the Company qualifying as a “flow-through share” as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (a “FT Share”), and one (1) common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one additional common share of the Company (a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of $0.08 per Warrant Share for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the closing of the Offering. Each HD Unit will be comprised of one (1) common share of the Company (a “Common Share”), and one (1) Warrant.

The gross proceeds from the issuance of the FT Units will be used for “Canadian exploration expenses” on the Company’s mineral properties and will qualify either as "flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures" or "flow-through mining expenditures" (the "Qualifying Expenditures"), each as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act (Canada). The Company intends to renounce the Qualifying Expenditures to subscribers of FT Units for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and to incur the Qualifying Expenditures on or before December 31, 2024. The net proceeds from the issuance of HD Units will be primarily used for exploration activities at the Company’s properties, as well as for general working capital purposes.

The Option Agreement to acquire the DEM Property remains subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory and other approvals, including the final approval of the TSXV and the approval of disinterested shareholders of the Company, a vote

in regards to which is scheduled for October 10, 2023. In the event such approvals are not obtained, the Company expects to re-direct the gross proceeds of the FT Units to incur Qualifying Expenditures on its other mineral properties.

It is expected that the Offering will close on or about September 27, 2023 or such other date or dates that the Company may determine (the "Closing Date"), subject to the receipt of all required regulatory approvals, including the acceptance of the TSXV. All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the Closing Date, in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Charles J. Greig, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical information in this news release.
