(NYSE American: DC) (\"Dakota Gold\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce it has discovered Rare Earth Elements (\"REE\") in the new TD Zone in its exploration and development drilling program on its Richmond Hill Gold Project (\"Richmond Hill\") in South Dakota. Our preliminary evaluation has identified high-grade REE in and around the Twin Tunnels Breccia Pipe near surface and at depth, and within the gold resource areas being defined in its upcoming S-K 1300 compliant maiden resource, scheduled for completion in Q1 2024. Although REE will not be evaluated in the upcoming maiden resource, work has begun to characterize the distribution of REE as well as the mineralogy of the system, which may be useful in assessing the potential economic contribution to the Richmond Hill Gold Project.Highlights:Cerium and lanthanum anomalies Dakota Gold first identified in early 2023 have been confirmed to contain high levels of REE (up to 12.9% of total Rare Earth Oxides (REO) over 4.9 feet). In the limited drilling completed, REO concentration over 1% occurs intermittently in an area 1,000 feet by 1,000 feet and to depths over 1,000 feet. These anomalies occur within the same area as previously reported gold mineralization at Richmond Hill.Significant concentrations of neodymium and praseodymium (maximum values over 1% combined) are present and could be primary economic drivers for beneficiation of the material. Neodymium and praseodymium are key components of REE magnets. We are also evaluating the potential presence of xenotime as a source for the heavy REE dysprosium and terbium. Neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium are all critical minerals in the Department of Energy's 2023 Critical Materials Assessment based on their high importance and high supply chain risk. Next steps will be to conduct additional REE sampling using more sensitive REE analyses, conduct comprehensive mineralogical studies and refine the geometry and quantity of the various REO at Richmond Hill, particularly in relationship to a future anticipated gold mineral resource estimate./ James Berry, Vice President Exploration of Dakota Gold, said, \"We are initiating the evaluation of REE at Richmond Hill. The recognition of enriched REE within the gold resource area may indicate the potential coproduction of commodities and, if these initial indicators are supported by future work, could add significant value to the project through either potential additional mineralization or potential reduction of permitting timelines. Further evaluation is undoubtedly warranted especially given the strategic value of magnet rare earth elements.\"Patrick Malone, Chief Sustainability Officer of Dakota Gold said, \"REE, particularly magnet REE like neodymium and praseodymium, are critical raw materials for many types of high technology - everything from smart phones to renewable energy and defense technologies. The United States is heavily reliant on sourcing and processing these materials from other countries, primarily China. Dakota Gold is very excited about the prospect of creating new, domestic supplies of these critical minerals from the same deposits at Richmond Hill that we know are rich in gold and silver. The potential to provide the critical materials to facilitate the clean energy transition, creating both environmental and shareholder benefits, is precisely in line with Dakota Gold's values and purpose.\" Mr. Malone continued, \"The United States has begun prioritizing the permitting of critical mineral exploration and mining projects to help the country secure its domestic supplies.\"Exploration Update:Dakota Gold's exploration at the Richmond Hill Gold Project identified relatively high-grade concentrations of rare earths mixed with potentially economic gold and silver mineralization (Figures 1 and 2). Core drilling has intersected values as high as 12.9% total REO including neodymium oxide concentrations over 1% and praseodymium oxide over 0.4%. Neodymium and praseodymium both received screening scores of 27 in Department of Energy's 2023 Critical Materials Assessment because of their use in permanent magnets, representing two of the highest risk materials on this list. While drilling is limited and there has been no metallurgy and processing work completed to determine potential economics, REO concentration over 1% occurs roughly in an area 1,000 feet by 1,000 feet and to depths over 1,000 feet. Preliminary thin sections for SEM analysis were taken from intervals returning high cerium and lanthanum values based on our standard multielement geochemical analyses (Figures 3 and 4). Later re-analyses using fusion digestion specifically designed for REE returned comparable results to the standard multielement procedures routinely used and suggest confidence that anomalous REE are not being missed by our standard sampling procedures (Figure 5). Table 1 contains results from the preliminary, first pass follow-up sampling program initiated in late 2023. Cerium and Lanthanum are reported routinely in our standard trace element analyses along with gold and silver. However, detection limits of 10,000 ppm require re-assay of overrun values using a more sensitive analytical procedure with a fusion digestion. This fusion procedure also returns results for the heavier REE. Dakota Gold is conducting a detailed review of REE at Richmond Hill involving re-sampling and re-assay of earlier drill holes. Future results will be reported periodically when significant milestones are reached with the REE evaluation. Lanthanum and cerium show a very high degree of correlation using standard and sensitive analytical procedures. Cerium correlates very well with the magnet rare earths neodymium and praseodymium which can only be identified with the sensitive fusion analytical methods (Figures 6 and 7). The high correlation of lanthanum and cerium found with both methods, demonstrates a degree of confidence that exploration results can be used to identify concentrations of high value REE in the system.
