(\"New Found\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV: NFG) (NYSE-A: NFGC) is pleased to report results from the 2024 Phase II Metallurgical Testing Program conducted on drill core samples collected from the Iceberg and Iceberg East zones as part of the exploration program at its 100% owned Queensway Project (\"Queensway\"), located on the Trans-Canada Highway 15km west of Gander, Newfoundland.\nHighlights:\n\nPhase II metallurgical testing commenced in 2024, focused on Iceberg and Iceberg East. A total of 46 Variability Composites were generated from approximately 340 metres of drill core with a combined weight of 1,400 kilograms, from which one Master Composite was assembled.\nWeighted average gold extraction from all 46 Variability Composite samples broken out by the 10 cross section lines, shown below on the plan map in Figure 1, averaged 96.9%. Gold extractions were achieved using both gravity separation and conventional carbon-in-leach (CIL) on the gravity tails.\nThese results compare well with the Phase I metallurgical test results which showed the weighted average gold extraction ranging from 90.1% to 96.7% for Keats Main, Golden Joint and Lotto (released April 3, 2024).\nThe Company is currently undertaking additional metallurgical testing focused on Keats West with composites having been selected and shipped to Base Metallurgical Laboratory Ltd and results anticipated in Q2 2025.\n\nRon Hampton, Chief Development Officer of New Found, stated: \"The Iceberg and Iceberg East zones have similar geology and mineralization style to the Keats Main zone that was previously reported earlier this year. Results from the Iceberg and Iceberg East zones also indicate excellent gold recoveries from the high-grade materials observed at the Queensway Project. In addition, this test work confirms that the mineralization from Iceberg and Iceberg East can be processed using conventional gravity separation and carbon-in-leach (CIL) technology.\"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Details:\nThe second phase of the metallurgical test work at the Queensway property has been completed. The testing targeted the Iceberg and Iceberg East zones. Due to similarities in the mineralization styles found in both the Iceberg and Iceberg East zones, the sampled drill core material was combined to ensure sufficient material for metallurgical testing. A typical cross section from this phase of metallurgical testing identifies drill core intervals that were selected for sampling is shown in Figure 2, with the location of the 10 sections that extend across Iceberg and Iceberg East being shown in Figure 1.\nApproximately 340 metres of drill core with a combined weight of 1,400 kilograms was selected for this phase of test work, comprising 46 Variability Composites, from which one Master Composite was assembled, all of which were tested for gold extraction.\nThe scope of work consisted of chemical and mineralogical analyses, environmental characterization, establishment of comminution parameters, gold extraction methods, reagent consumption, cyanide detoxification, and solid-liquid separation properties for process and tailings streams. The results of the chemical and mineralogical analyses were very similar to the previous test work completed for Keats Main, Lotto and Golden Joint.\nResults indicate that Iceberg and Iceberg East are similar to the other mineralized zones tested in the area, which are generally high-grade, and contain significant free-milling gold which is amenable to both gravity and leach extraction. Free gold grains greater than 150 microns in size were observed predominantly in the quartz veins located throughout these zones. The average gold weighted extraction percentage for Iceberg and Iceberg East was 96.9%. The average gold weighted extraction percentage for adjacent tested mineralized zones, Keats Main, Lotto and Golden Joint, ranged from 90.1% to 96.9%, when reduced to a product size of 75 microns (Table 1). These gold extraction percentages were achieved using gravity separation and conventional carbon-in-leach (CIL) technologies. Lower gold extraction values were realized for individual Variability Composite samples that had gold head assay values of less than 2 grams per tonne.\nLower gold extraction trends were observed in samples containing organic carbon, as well as arsenopyrite and pyrite. Despite the Total Organic Carbon (TOC) of each tested mineralized zone being less than 0.1%, it was confirmed that some of the sampled material was mildly preg-robbing, although easily managed by using CIL for gold extraction on the higher-grade materials. A correlation between tailings gold grade and arsenic content was also observed; with the tail grade increasing as a function of increasing arsenic content.\nComminution test work indicated that the tested material had an average SMC Axb index of approximately 64 and an average Bond Work Index (BWI) of approximately 18.3 kWh/t, which would be considered a medium hard ore for SAG milling and medium hard ore for ball milling.\nThe Company retained metallurgist Gary Simmons as an independent consultant to design and oversee the metallurgical test work program at Queensway. Mr. Simmons is an internationally recognized metallurgist who previously served as Director of Metallurgy and Technology of Newmont Mining Corporation, where he managed the corporate metallurgical laboratory and R&D staff responsible for global Newmont process development and engineering design projects.\nLaboratory test work was carried out by Base Metallurgical Laboratory Ltd. in Kamloops, British Columbia.\nQualified Person\nThe scientific and technical information disclosed in this press release was reviewed and approved by Greg Matheson, P. Geo., Chief Operating Officer, and a Qualified Person as defined under National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Matheson consents to the publication of this press release dated November 1, 2024, by New Found. Mr. Matheson certifies that this press release fairly and accurately represents the scientific and technical information that forms the basis for this press release.\nAbout New Found Gold Corp.\nNew Found holds a 100% interest in the Queensway Project, located 15km west of Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador, and just 18km from Gander International Airport.
