VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 17, 2025 /CNW/ - Palisades Goldcorp Ltd. (TSXV: PALI) (the "Company" or "Palisades") is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Made in America Gold Corp. ("MIAG"), has entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent (the "LOI") to acquire, by way of a share purchase agreement, Undercover Gold Inc. ("Undercover"), which owns the South Cortez and South Tonkin mineral properties (together, the "Properties"). Undercover was founded by NewQuest Capital Inc. ("NewQuest") which is lead by an industry-recognized exploration team that has structured numerous earn-in joint venture deals with major mining companies across a global portfolio of exploration projects.

The acquisition of the Properties expands MIAG's Battle Mountain -- Eureka portfolio by an additional 73 km(2) , further establishing MIAG as the largest junior landholder in Nevada. This acquisition complements the MIAG portfolio by adding a strategically located land position along trend with Nevada Gold Mines' prolific Pipeline, Cortez Hills, Goldrush and Fourmile deposits, which have collectively produced or contain over 60 million ounces of gold.(*) Following completion of the transaction, MIAG will control 800 km(2), including landholdings adjacent to major deposits operated by Nevada Gold Mines, SSR Mining, McEwen Mining and I-80 Gold, (see Figure 1).

Justin Daley, CEO of Made in America Gold, stated: "This consolidation further strengthens our footprint along one of the most productive gold trends in North America, adding two new strategic properties that enhance both scale and optionality. We welcome Undercover Gold shareholders as new stakeholders in Made in America Gold, and I look forward to continuing to work with the NewQuest group as we advance the exploration and strategic potential of the expanded portfolio."

"Partnering with Made in America Gold represents an ideal and logical next step for the Undercover exploration assets," stated Alistair Waddell, Partner of NewQuest. "The South Cortez and South Tonkin projects are best advanced within a larger, consolidated portfolio in Nevada's most productive gold belt. We are confident that Made in America's technical team and strategic backing will unlock the full potential of this district-scale land position while providing Undercover shareholders with continued exposure through equity ownership."

Transaction Terms

The LOI provides that MIAG and Undercover will enter into a definitive share purchase agreement pursuant to which MIAG will acquire all the outstanding shares of Undercover which holds the South Cortez and South Tonkin properties, accounting for 993 claims. As consideration, Undercover shareholders will receive a 10% equity interest in MIAG upon closing, based on an implied post-transaction valuation of US$25 million for MIAG. Closing is targeted for on or before February 10, 2026, subject to customary terms and conditions for a transaction of this nature, including acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange, regulatory and third-party approvals, and other standard closing deliverables to be set out in the definitive agreement.

A portion of the South Cortez project is subject to existing option agreements which remain in effect and include net smelter royalties ("NSR") ranging from 2-3% with standard buy down provisions to 1%. Certain other claims owned 100% by Undercover within the South Cortez and South Tonkin claim blocks are subject to a 1.75% royalty to NewQuest.

Palisades will put in place and retain a 1.75% NSR on all 100% owned MIAG claims and projects which currently exist (excluding South Cortez and South Tonkin) by forming a new subsidiary to hold such NSR interests for the sole benefit of Palisades shareholders. Additionally, the 3% NSR on Nevada King Gold Corp.'s Atlanta Gold Mine Project currently held by Palisades in the MIAG entity will be transferred to the newly formed subsidiary for the sole benefit of Palisades shareholders.
