• Proven & probable reserves of 380,000 and 554,000 ounces of gold and silver, respectively

• Measured & indicated resources of 755,000 and 3.01 million ounces of gold and silver, respectively (not including reserves)

• Total after-tax free cash flow of $182 million

• Robust economics at an after-tax NPV_5% of $114 million with an IRR of 22.45%

Winnemucca, Nevada – October 6, 2022 – Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. (NYSE American: PZG) (“Paramount” or the “Company”) today filed its S-K 1300 Technical Report Summary on the Feasibility Study (“FS” or the “Study”) for its 100% owned, proposed high-grade gold mine, to be located at Grassy Mountain in Malheur County, Oregon (the “Project”). S-K 1300 is a new SEC requirement for US mining projects which allows the disclosure of Mineral Reserves and Resources.

The Project is in advanced stages of permitting, with the county permit in hand, and all baseline data reports approved by Oregon State regulators. The Project is in the final stages of the review process with both State and Federal regulators.

“The new Technical Report Summary strengthens the case for our project’s superior economic performance despite increases to both the operating and capital costs due to global inflationary pressures,” stated Rachel Goldman, the Company’s CEO. “This is further confirmation of the value of our project in the current environment as we conclude the permitting process,” she added.

The proposed underground mine plan envisions a small surface footprint and is expected to generate substantial cash-flows over the life of mine. The mine plan was developed using a drift and fill underhand mining methodology. A cut-off grade of 0.1 oz/ton (3.43 g/T) gold equivalent was used to define economic stopes. Ore processing from the upper portion of the mine is expected to commence concurrently with the completion of the processing plant and infrastructure. Following ramp up, the mine is expected to produce an average of 1,300 to 1,400 tons per day, 4 days a week, which would provide enough material for the 750 ton per day mill and an enclosed Carbon in Leach (“CIL”) processing plant to operate at full capacity for 7 days a week.

This Study encompasses new vendor quotes reflecting the current inflationary environment. Of utmost importance, this Study incorporates all modifications requested by State and Federal regulators in the completeness reviews of both the Consolidated Permit Application and the Plan of Operation, which have now been finalized.

The highlights of the S-K 1300 Technical Report Summary on the Feasibility Study in the base case scenario are as follows:

• Initial 8-year mine life producing 362,000 ounces of gold and 425,000 ounces silver;

• Annual average production of 47,000 ounces of gold and 55,000 ounces of silver;

• Mill head grade of 0.19 oz/ton (6.5 g/T) gold and 0.28 oz/ton (9.6 g/T) of silver;

• After-tax IRR of 22.5% and NPV_5% of $114.1M

• Life of mine cash costs of $681 and AISC of $815 per ounce of gold;

• Initial CapEx of $136.2M, including $13.5M of estimated contingencies, $36.1M of sustaining CapEx and $12.4M closure costs for a 750 tpd mine and milling operation;

• Average gold and silver recoveries of 92.8% and 73.5% respectively; and

• After-tax payback of 3.3 years;

The FS was completed by a group of industry leading consulting firms led by: Ausenco Engineering Canada Inc. (“Ausenco”), who managed the overall study and were responsible for processing and infrastructure design, oversaw metallurgical testing and completed the economic analysis; RESPEC Company LLC (“RESPEC”), who updated the mineral resource estimate; Arrowhead Underground LLC (“Arrowhead”), who completed the mine planning and reserves estimation; Golder Associates (“Golder”), who designed the tailings storage facility; and SLR International, who oversaw all environmental and reclamation aspects of the Feasibility Study.

S-K 1300 is a new requirement that requires Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registrants with material mining operations including those in the exploration and development stage to provide certain disclosures about its mining activities in its SEC filings.

^1. Mineral Resources estimates are reported exclusive of mineral reserves, are current as of June 30, 2022, and are reported using the definitions in S-K 1300.

^2. The Qualified Person firm responsible for the mineral resource estimate is RESPEC.

^3. Assumed metal prices for 2022 estimated Mineral Resources were US$1,750 per ounce of gold and US$22.00 per ounce of silver, unless otherwise noted.

Mineral Resources potentially amenable to open pit mining methods are reported using a gold price of US$1,750/oz, a silver price of US$22/oz, a throughput rate of 5,000 tons/day, assumed metallurgical recoveries of 80% for Au and 60% for Ag, mining costs of US$2.50/ton mined, processing costs of US$13.00/ton processed, general and administrative costs of $2.22/ton processed, and refining costs of $5.00/oz Au and $0.50/oz Ag produced. Mineral Resources potentially amenable to underground mining methods are reported using a gold price of US$1,750/oz, a silver price of US$22/oz, a throughput rate of 5,000 tons/day, assumed metallurgical recoveries of 95% gold equivalent, mining costs of US$90/ton mined, processing costs of US$30/ton processed, general and administrative costs of US$15.00/ton processed, and refining costs of US$5.00/oz gold equivalent produced.

The in-pit resources were then tabulated by the application of a gold-equivalent cut-off of 0.011 oz/ton (0.38 g/T), and resources potentially amenable to underground mining methods were estimated by applying a gold-equivalent cut-off of 0.085 oz/ton (2.915 g/T) to blocks lying immediately outside of the optimized pit that could reasonably be accessed from the resource pit. The gold-equivalent grades were determined using a silver to gold ratio of a 106 to 1. Processing is assumed to consist of crushing and milling followed by a CIL recovery process resulting in the production of a doré bar on site.

Assumed cut-off grade to report reserves was 0.1 oz/ton of gold equivalent. An underground mining scenario is assumed using mechanized cut-and-fill methods, which, following ramp-up, is expected to produce 1,300–1,400 tons/day, four days a week. This mining rate would provide sufficient material for the 750 ton/day mill and processing plant to operate at full capacity for seven days a week.

The Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves for Grassy Mountain were estimated by first calculating an economic cut-off grade of 0.1 AuEq oz/ton (3.43 g/T) for mining underground stopes, then using the cut-off grade to design stope shapes centered on Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource blocks with gold grades greater than or equal to the cut-off grade. All Inferred material was considered to be waste with no value or metal content. Internal and external dilution and mining recoveries (ore loss) were estimated and applied as modifying factors based on the total tonnage of material inside of the final designs.

Economic Analysis

Based on the assumptions and parameters presented, the FS shows positive economics with a 3.3-year payback period supported by a pre-tax NPV_5% of $134.9 M and pre-tax IRR of 24.22%, and after-tax NPV5% of $114.1 M and after-tax IRR of 22.54%. The initial CapEx is at $136.2 M, with undiscounted LOM revenue of $641.8 M, sustaining CapEx of $36.1 M, all-in OpEx of $244 M, and closure costs of $12.4 M. The breakeven gold price is approximately $1,255 per ounce of gold.

The following table illustrates the sensitivities that a variety of gold price environments have on both the NPV and IRR:

	Base Case	Upside Case	Lower Case
Gold Price ($/oz)	1,750	1,900	1,590
Silver Price ($/oz)	22	24	20
Cash Operating Cost Per Au Ounce	$ 681	$ 681	$ 681
Total Cost Per Ounce Au (AISC)	$ 815	$ 815	$ 815
After-tax Internal Rate of Return	23 %	27 %	18 %
After-tax Net Present Value (5%)	$ 114 M	$ 146 M	$ 80 M
After-tax Net Present Value (8%)	$ 84 M	$ 111 M	$ 54 M
After-tax Net Present Value (10%)	$ 67 M	$ 91 M	$ 39 M
Payback from start of production (years)	3.3	2.9	3.9

The economic analysis was performed using the following assumptions:

• Gold price of US$1,750/oz, silver price of US$22/oz (rounded three-year trailing average price (LME) as of June 30, 2022);

• Construction period of 18 months beginning March 1, 2024;

• All construction costs are capitalized;

• Commercial production starting (effectively) on September 1, 2025;

• LOM of 7.8 years;

• Cost estimates in constant Q3 2022 USD with no inflation or escalation;

• Capital costs funded with 100% equity (no financing costs assumed);

• All cash flows discounted at a 5% discount rate, to the start of construction;

• Metal is assumed to be sold in the same year it is produced;

• No contractual arrangements for refining currently exist;

• Closure costs of $12.4 M;

• 1.5% NSR royalty, resulting in approximately $9.6 M in undiscounted royalty payments over the LOM;

• US Federal corporate income tax rate of 21%; Oregon tax rate of 7.6% for net proceeds of more than $1 M; giving total undiscounted tax payments of $30.9 M over the LOM.
