Eminent Signs Drill Contract for 10,000m RC Drill Program at HSRP

VANCOUVER, BC, March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ – Eminent Gold Corp. (TSXV: EMNT) (OTCQB: EMGDF) (FSE: 7AB) („Eminent“ or the „Company“) is pleased to announce that it has signed a drilling contract with the well-respected, Nevada-based Alford Drilling LLC to conduct a reverse circulation (RC) drilling program of a minimum 5,000 meters and up to 10,000 meters at the Otis target within the 100%-owned Hot Springs Range Project („HSRP“), located approximately 15 km northwest of the prolific Getchell Trend in Nevada—home to major high-grade Carlin-style deposits including Turquoise Ridge and Twin Creeks¹. (See Figure 1) Drilling is expected to commence on or around April 15, 2026.

The program will focus on testing the extensions of mineralization encountered in previous drilling as well as new, previously untested areas (see Figure 2). The holes planned to test some of the extensions of the mineralized zones are shown in Figure 3a and 3b.

RC drilling will provide quicker turnaround on results and a lower cost per meter compared to previous core drilling methods, with the Company planning to utilize the photon assaying technique as a faster, environmentally friendly alternative to fire assays. This should further accelerate assay reporting.
