(TSXV:LG)(OTCQB:LGCXF)(FSE:Y2F) <\/strong>(the <strong>\u2018Company\u2019<\/strong> or <strong>\u2018Lahontan\u2019<\/strong>) is pleased to announce that the Company has completed the Purchase (the \u2018<strong>Purchase<\/strong>\u2018) of 27 unpatented lode mining claims (the \u2018<strong>York claims<\/strong>\u2018) from Emergent Metals Corp (\u2018<strong>Emergent<\/strong>\u2018). The York claims are contiguous with the southeast corner of the Santa Fe Mine Project and provide a compelling opportunity to significantly expand oxide gold and silver mineral resources previously defined at the York deposit*. Modeling of drill data during the mineral resource estimation process suggests that gold and silver mineralization likely extends onto the York claims. This targeting concept was in part validated by Lahontan\u2019s recent drilling campaign where reverse-circulation drill hole YOR25-001R cut 89.9 metres (45.7 \u2013 135.6m) grading 0.23 g\/t gold (please see Lahontan Gold News Release dated September 2, 2025). The Company is currently planning additional drilling at the York target area for this Fall. With the addition of the York claims, the Company now owns or controls 415 unpatented lode mining claims, 67 unpatented millsite claims, and 24 patented lode mining claims encompassing over 2,832 ha or 28.3 km2 of mineral rights in one of the World\u2019s premier gold belts: Nevada\u2019s Walker Lane.<\/p>\n<p>Kimberly Ann, Lahontan Founder, Chair, CEO, and President commented: \u2018Lahontan is excited to have completed the Purchase of the York claims. The gold and silver resource expansion potential, combined with the ability to further layback the York pit in potential future mining operations, makes the Purchase a strategic acquisition for the Company. Lahontan now controls a district-scale land package that, despite prolific past production and the completion of over 1,200 drill holes, remains largely unexplored with multiple targets for resource expansion and new discoveries.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Terms of the Purchase include:<\/p>\n<p>Lahontan has paid Emergent\u2019s U.S. subsidiary, Golden Arrow Mining Corporation (\u2018<strong>GAMC<\/strong>\u2018), a sum of US$10,000.<br \/>\nLahontan has issued 2,000,000 common shares of Lahontan Gold Corp. to Emergent.<br \/>\nGAMC will facilitate the transfer of the York Claims to Lahontan or its designee, to be completed within 30 days of today\u2019s date.<br \/>\nAs part of the transfer, Lahontan has granted GAMC a 1% NSR royalty (the \u2018<strong>Royalty<\/strong>\u2018) on the York Claims. At any time before the third anniversary of the Agreement, Lahontan may purchase the Royalty for US$500,000. After the third and before the seventh anniversary of the Agreement, Lahontan may purchase the Royalty for US$1,000,000.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>About Lahontan Gold Corp.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Lahontan Gold Corp. is a Canadian mine development and mineral exploration company that holds, through its US subsidiaries, four top-tier gold and silver exploration properties in the Walker Lane of mining friendly Nevada.
