 RENO, Nev., Aug. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - i-80 GOLD CORP. (TSX: IAU) (NYSE American: IAUX) ("i-80 Gold", or the "Company") reports  its operating and financial results for the three and six months ended  June 30, 2025,  highlighting key developments across its asset  portfolio. Unless  otherwise stated, all amounts referred to herein are  in U.S. dollars.
 
 "The second quarter marked a major turning  point at i-80 Gold," stated Richard Young,  President and Chief  Executive Officer. "The equity financing completed  in May has enabled  us to advance key development initiatives across the  five gold projects  included in our development plan, and advance the  Lone Tree autoclave  refurbishment study which will be a key component of  our hub-and-spoke  mining and processing strategy for our high-grade  underground  projects."
 
 Mr. Young added, "In support of our three-phase  development plan, we  anticipate several key catalysts over the next 12  to 18 months. These  include initiating underground development at  Archimedes, completing  infill drill programs and technical work to  support upcoming feasibility  studies at four of our gold projects, and  completing the Lone Tree  autoclave feasibility study. In parallel,  permitting efforts are well  underway across the portfolio as we  recently expanded our permitting  team and continue working  collaboratively with regulators and local  stakeholders. We are also  actively working to secure the next phase of  our recapitalization plan  to continue laying the foundation to achieve  our expected average  annual target of more than 600,000 ounces of gold  by the early  2030's(3)."
 
 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
 
 Second Quarter 2025
 
 Three months ended June 30, 2025
 
 
 Revenue  totaled $27.8 million for the quarter compared to $7.2 million in the  prior year period primarily driven by higher gold ounces sold(1) at  Granite Creek and Lone Tree and a higher average realized gold price(2).
 
Gold  sales(1) totaled 8,400 ounces at an average realized gold price(2) of  $3,301 per ounce compared to gold sales(1) of 3,445 ounces at an average  realized gold price(2) of $2,337 per ounce in the prior year period.
 
Loss  per share of $0.05 for the quarter improved compared to $0.11 loss per  share in the prior year quarter primarily due to an increase in gross  profit of $13.1 million.
 
Cash used in operating  activities for the quarter was $11.3 million, compared to $24.6 million  in the prior year period due to an increase in gross profit.
 
Executed  financing initiatives in support of the Company's broader   recapitalization plan, including a bought deal public offering to which   the Company issued 345.8 million units for gross proceeds of $172.9  million (net proceeds of $162.7 million) and a private placement of 25.2  million units for gross proceeds of $12.6 million (net proceeds of  $12.5 million).
 
Cash balance of $133.7 million as at  June 30, 2025, an increase of $120.2 million compared to March 31, 2025   primarily due to net proceeds received from the bought deal public   offering and private placement, partially offset by the gold and silver   deliveries under the prepay instruments of $31.0 million and $11.0  million, respectively.
 
Completed 8,717 feet of core  drilling during the three months ended June 30, 2025  at the Mineral  Point open pit project on the Ruby Hill property and  Granite Creek  underground to enhance mineral resource definition and  support future  technical studies.

 "Given that i-80's core assets are brownfield projects with a well   understood and sizeable mineral resource base, we continue to advance   steadily with relatively low technical and permitting risk due to their   historical mining footprints and existing infrastructure," stated Paul  Chawrun,  Chief Operating Officer. "The team remains focused on the  infill drill  programs in support of the upcoming feasibility studies,  permitting, and  development activities across all core assets as we  progress toward  achieving our staged production goals and continue to  optimize the value  and timing of each project within the broader  development plan."
 
 RECAPITALIZATION UPDATE
 
 The Company continues to execute a recapitalization strategy aimed at   strengthening its balance sheet and funding its growth plans.
 
 In  May 2025, the Company raised gross proceeds of $185.5 million through a  bought deal public offering and a concurrent private placement, with  combined net proceeds of $175.2 million. If fully exercised, the  warrants issued as part of the financing and expiring November 16, 2027,  could provide the Company with up to approximately $130 million  in  additional proceeds. A portion of the proceeds of the offering were   used to settle the first phase of the recapitalization plan totaling  $42.0 million for gold and silver deliveries under the prepay  instruments. Through to mid-2026, approximately $92 million  is expected  to be allocated to fund construction activities, drilling,  permitting  and technical studies across five gold projects including the  Lone Tree  autoclave processing facility, all part of the development  plan.
 
 The Company is actively working to secure the balance of required   capital to execute the development plan and is in discussions with   several parties regarding additional financing options. These potential   options include debt facilities, as well as a royalty sale, and the  sale  of its FAD property, which is a non-core asset. Management aims to   complete the balance of its recapitalization plan by mid-2026,  aligning  with the date of maturity of the Orion Convertible Loan.
 
 UPCOMING CATALYSTS
 
 The Company's three-phase development plan prioritizes its high-grade   underground refractory deposits and the refurbishment and   commissioning of its Lone Tree autoclave to serve as a central   processing hub, while also progressing permitting and technical work on   its two large-scale open pit projects. In alignment with this strategy,   the Company expects to achieve the following catalysts:

 Granite Creek Underground
 
 Mining activities during the current quarter exceeded levels reported   in the comparative prior-year period, primarily driven by additional   faces available to mine due to stope development and changes in   sequencing of mining. Management expects groundwater inflows to remain   at or near the current ingress flow rates for the foreseeable future.   Improvements to the existing infrastructure are ongoing, including the   installation of at least two additional dewatering wells, an expanded   water treatment facility, and an in-line piping and pumping system for   the removal of mine contact water from underground workings, which are   expected to positively impact development rates.
 
 The Company  continues to encounter elevated levels of oxide mineralized material  compared to levels anticipated in the March 2025  Preliminary Economic  Assessment ("PEA") at Granite Creek. The  lower-grade oxide mineralized  material continues to be suitable for  processing via heap leach at the  Company's Lone Tree heap leach  facility. During the quarter, 1,554   ounces of low-grade oxide material  from Granite Creek was leached and  sold from the Lone Tree heap leach  facility.
 
 As at June 30,  2025, the Company has delivered approximately 28,000  tonnes of sulfide  mineralized material, waiting to be processed under a  new toll milling  agreement with a third party. Under the new toll  milling agreement, the  material is expected to be processed within 120  days of delivery to  the process facilities.
 
 For the three months ended June 30,  2025, $4.9 million was spent on pre-development expenses.  Pre-development, evaluation, and exploration expenses for the six months  ended June 30, 2025 were primarily related to underground development  of $7.8 million and infill drilling.
 
 Infill drilling of the  South Pacific Zone began in June 2025  with two active drill rigs – one  operating from underground and one  from surface. Three additional rigs  are expected to be mobilized in the  third quarter, with one additional  rig underground and two at surface.  These activities are expected to  further support mineral resource  definition and expansion. The  exploration drift was completed at the end  of June to a shorter extent  than initially planned. The initial  underground drill plan was modified  to include additional surface  drilling as part of the program. The  infill drill program aims to  upgrade the mineral resource and form the  basis for the upcoming  feasibility study, which is targeted for  completion in the first quarter  of 2026.
 
 Granite Creek Open Pit
 
 Following the release of the Granite Creek open pit PEA, technical   work is underway to advance the project toward either a pre-feasibility   or a feasibility-level study. Simultaneously, trade off analyses are   being conducted to optimize the project economics.
 
 Permitting  work is in the initial stages and advancing as expected.  Granite Creek  open pit has the potential to contribute to company-wide  gold output by  the end of the decade.
 
 Ruby Hill Property
 
 The Archimedes underground project is expected to be the Company's   second underground mine, while Mineral Point is a large oxide gold and   silver deposit with the potential to become the Company's largest gold   producing asset.
 
 Archimedes Underground
 
 Surface infrastructure has been completed, and the initial  development  of the underground exploration drift is anticipated to  commence in the  third quarter of 2025.
 
 Permitting for mining above the  5100-foot level at Archimedes  underground is nearing completion, with  approval for advancement  expected shortly. This phase of permitting  covers mining activities  above the 5100-foot elevation, a threshold  consistent with previously  approved permits for open pit mining at Ruby  Hill. Permitting below the  5100-foot elevation is expected to begin  immediately upon receipt of the  first phase of permits. This sequential  approach to permitting  expedites mining while simultaneously pursuing  remaining permits for the  lower section.
 
 Infill drilling will  be initiated in the fourth quarter of 2025 in  the Archimedes upper zone  and in the first quarter of 2026 for the  Archimedes lower zone.
 
 The timeframe for first gold is approximately 14 months in duration   from the commencement of portal construction which is expected to   commence in the third quarter. In the meantime, the Company continues   leaching the historic leach pads. During the three-month period, 665   ounces of gold were sold from Ruby Hill.
 
 Mineral Point
 
 A drill program for the Mineral Point open pit project commenced in  June 2025  with two surface core drill rigs, completing approximately  5,800 feet  of surface core drilling in the quarter to support  geotechnical,  metallurgical and hydrogeology studies for baseline data  to advance  permitting and technical reports. Following the release of a  PEA in the  first quarter of 2025, strategic evaluations are underway  to determine  optimal timing of a pre-feasibility or a feasibility-level  study.
 
 Cove Project
 
 National Environmental Policy Act ("NEPA") permitting activities are   underway with the Bureau of Land Management ("BLM")  in anticipation of   an Environmental Impact Statement ("EIS"). i-80 Gold is actively   advancing major permit applications with the goal of aligning regulatory   approvals with planned development timelines. Cove is expected to be   the Company's third underground mine and begin contributing to   company-wide production in mid-2029.
 
 In addition to the  permitting process, an infill drill program was  completed during the  first quarter of 2025 to increase confidence in the  mineral resource  and collect data for engineering work to complete a  feasibility study  expected in the first quarter of 2026 while also  incorporating  additional metallurgical work. Underground delineation  drilling was  completed during the first quarter on the Helen and Gap  deposits with  two core rigs, completing approximately 15,000 feet of  core drilled,  bringing total drilling over the course of the infill  campaign to  approximately 145,000 feet. All assay results have been  received since  the inception of the infill drilling campaign in 2023 and  expected to  provide an updated mineral resource estimate in the third  quarter of  2025. The geological model has been updated with these new  drill  results, and an updated resource estimate is in progress to be  included  in the feasibility study.
 
 Lone Tree Processing Facility
 
 The Lone Tree processing facility has one of three autoclave facilities  in Nevada  and is a strategic asset in unlocking value from i-80 Gold's  three  underground deposits by providing an owner-operated processing  facility  for the Company's high-grade underground refractory material.
 
 Currently, the Lone Tree autoclave refurbishment feasibility-level   Class 3 engineering study is underway in collaboration with Hatch Ltd.,   an industry leader in autoclave technology, building on an internal   feasibility study completed in 2023. The autoclave is envisioned to   process refractory mineralized material from the Company's three   underground mines, Granite Creek, Archimedes and Cove, creating a   regional hub-and-spoke mining and processing strategy. Concurrently,   i-80 Gold is recruiting the owner's team to oversee the engineering and   execution of Lone Tree's refurbishment, along with risk mitigation   planning and opportunities to accelerate the development timeline.
 
 The updated technical study for the facility's refurbishment will   incorporate value engineering initiatives and updated cost estimates to   support an improved execution strategy. Completion of the revised   feasibility study is targeted for the fourth quarter of 2025.
 
 Lone Tree's processing facility is currently permitted for the   operational components in use; however, new and revised applications   will need to be approved for air quality and mercury operating programs,   in addition to, Water Pollution Control and Reclamation Permit   modifications for the processing and environmental controls included in   the refurbishment plan.
 
 1,754 ounces of gold were sold from the  Lone Tree leach pads during  the three-month period. The leaching of  the historic leach pad at Lone  Tree continues to produce gold at  profitable quantities. The Company  plans to continue to recover ounces  from the Lone Tree leach pads as  long as it is economical to do so.
 
 Capital expenditures of approximately $0.6 million during the three and  six months ended June 30, 2025 and in the comparative period were  related to the technical work on the refurbishment of the autoclave  processing plant.

 | Consolidated   production estimates and average annual production targets include the   Cove Project, Archimedes Underground Project, Mineral Point Open Pit   Project, Granite Creek Underground Project, and Granite Creek Open Pit   Project and are based on the most recent life-of-mine production   schedules disclosed in the latest technical studies filed for each   respective project and related property. These anticipated production   figures are preliminary in nature and are based on mineral resources,   which do not have demonstrated economic viability, and which are not   mineral reserves. In addition, each of the foregoing technical reports   are preliminary economic assessments/initial assessment that are   preliminary in nature and each include an economic analysis that is   based, in part, on inferred mineral resources. Inferred mineral   resources are considered too speculative geologically to have for the   application of economic considerations applied to them that would enable   them to be categorized as mineral reserves. As such, there is no   certainty that the production targets will be realized. The production   target is also pending the completion of the autoclave refurbishment   Class 3 engineering study (where a series of trade-off scenarios will be   considered comparing full autoclave refurbishment to alternate toll   milling and ore purchase agreement options that could potentially be   available), Board approval, and the successful funding, development, and   commissioning of the Company's Lone Tree autoclave processing  facility.  The production target presented herein is a Company goal and  not a  projection of results and should not be taken as production  guidance.

 CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
 
 Certain information set forth in this press release, including but  not  limited to management's assessment of the Company's future plans and   operations, the perceived merit of projects or deposits, and the impact   and anticipated timing of the Company's development plan and   recapitalization plan, the intended use of proceeds from the bought deal   equity offering and the concurrent private placement, outlook on gold   output, the anticipated growth expenditures, the anticipated timing of   permitting, production, project development or technical studies   constitutes forward looking statements or forward-looking information   within the meaning of applicable securities laws. All statements other   than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements.   Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by   the use of words such as  "plans", "expects", "is expected", "budget",   "scheduled", "estimates", "continues", "forecasts", "projects",   "predicts", "intends", "anticipates" or "believes", or variations of, or   the negatives of, such words and phrases, or state that certain   actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "should", "might" or   "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Readers are cautioned that the   assumptions used in the preparation of information, although considered   reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be inaccurate and,   as such, reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements.   The Company's actual results, performance or achievement could differ   materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking   statements and, accordingly, no assurance can be given that any of the   events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will transpire or   occur, or if any of them do so, what benefits, if any, that the  Company  will derive therefrom. By their nature, forward looking  statements are  subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, some of  which are beyond  the Company's control, including general economic and  industry  conditions, volatility of commodity prices, title risks and   uncertainties, ability to access sufficient capital from internal and   external sources  such as selling assets, restructuring debt or   obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or   highly dilutive. The Company's ability to refinance its indebtedness   will depend on the capital markets and its financial condition at such   time, currency fluctuations, construction and operational risks,   licensing and permit requirements, environmental risks, competition from   other industry participants, the lack of availability of qualified   personnel or management, imprecision of mineral resource, or production   estimates.

 NON-GAAP FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES
 
 The Company has included certain terms or performance measures   commonly used in the mining industry that are not defined under US GAAP   in this document. These include adjusted loss, adjusted loss per share,   and average realized price per ounce. Non-GAAP financial performance   measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under US GAAP,   and therefore, they may not be comparable to similar measures employed   by other companies. The data presented is intended to provide  additional  information and should not be considered in isolation or as a   substitute for measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP and should   be read in conjunction with the Company's Financial Statements. For a   more detailed breakdown on how this measure was calculated, please see   the definitions and tables below.
 
 Definitions
 
 "Average realized gold price" per ounce of gold sold is a non-GAAP   measure and does not constitute a measure recognized by US GAAP   Accounting Standards and does not have a standardized meaning defined by   US GAAP Accounting Standards. It may not be comparable to information   in other gold producers' reports and filings. Management believes this   non-GAAP measure improves the understanding of revenue.
 
 "Adjusted loss" and "adjusted loss per share" are non-GAAP measures   that the Company considers to better reflect normalized earnings because   it eliminates temporary or non-recurring items such as: gain (loss) on   warrants, gain (loss) on Convertible Loans, and gain (loss) on fair   value measurement of Gold Prepay Agreement and Silver Purchase   Agreement. Adjusted loss per share is calculated using the weighted   average number of shares outstanding under the basic calculation of   earnings per share.
