2025 is expected to be a defining year as we near critical milestones - completing the technical studies for the next phase of operation and refining drill targets to continue adding value to the Hycroft mine. With precious metals showing remarkable strength, Hycroft stands uniquely positioned with its world-class Nevada asset. With less than 10% of our 64,000+-acre property explored, our high-grade discoveries continuing to expand, existing infrastructure on-site and major mining permits in hand, we are well advanced compared to other development companies, and we are excited about the opportunities ahead in this robust precious metals environment.
Operational Highlights
Exploration: The 2024 drill program was launched in February 2024 (the "2024 Drill Program"), to build on the high-grade silver dominant trends identified in late 2023. The objective of the 2024 Drill Program was to define the structural framework of these new trends, establish continuity and expand the Brimstone and Vortex trends, and identify new target areas of potential high-grade. All objectives were successful, and the 2024 drill program was expanded during the year with 9,058 meters of drilling being completed as of December 31, 2024. Final assays from three holes were pending at year-end. In addition to extending the high-grade silver trends up and down-dip, the technical team has identified new target areas as potential extensions of these silver trends. With less than 10% of the Company's land position explored, there is tremendous further exploration potential.
Technical Studies: During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company advanced the metallurgical and engineering work necessary for designing a sulfide milling operation including testing composite samples from around the ore body that represent the various material characteristics in the sulfide ore, crushing, grinding, and flotation work which has identified significant improvements in gold and silver flotation recoveries compared to the current technical report that increase the economic benefits to the project, identifying the optimal inputs and operating parameters for roasting, pressure oxidation, leaching, sulfuric acid generation, and power co-generation. During 2024, the Company also completed the future tailing storage facility designs needed to extend material storage capacity and comply with safety and environmental regulations for these facilities. Final metallurgical testwork for roasting will be completed mid-year as part of the trade-off studies to assess whether roasting technology could offer superior economics compared to pressure oxidation ("POX") technology for the Hycroft Mine. Other technical work components to be completed in 2025 include process plant equipment selection, plant layout, water management, and other designs, with an anticipated technical report with economics being published in late 2025. Due to the potential significant quantity of by-product sulfuric acid expected to be generated from roasting the sulfide concentrate, the Company engaged a third-party specialist that completed a focused sulfuric acid market study that identified a viable market with potential customers and pricing assumptions.
The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024, was filed March 5, 2025, and is available at www.sec.gov/edgar. See "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" below.

Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production. Executive Orders March 20, 2025
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 301 of title 3, United States Code, it is hereby ordered:
Section 1. Purpose. The United States possesses vast mineral resources that can create jobs, fuel prosperity, and significantly reduce our reliance on foreign nations. Transportation, infrastructure, defense capabilities, and the next generation of technology rely upon a secure, predictable, and affordable supply of minerals. The United States was once the world’s largest producer of lucrative minerals, but overbearing Federal regulation has eroded our Nation’s mineral production. Our national and economic security are now acutely threatened by our reliance upon hostile foreign powers’ mineral production. It is imperative for our national security that the United States take immediate action to facilitate domestic mineral production to the maximum possible extent.
Sec. 2. Definitions. For the purposes of this order:
(a) “Mineral” means a critical mineral, as defined by 30 U.S.C. 1606(a)(3), as well as uranium, copper, potash, gold, and any other element, compound or material as determined by the Chair of the National Energy Dominance Council (NEDC).
(b) “Mineral production” means the mining, processing, refining, and smelting of minerals, and the production of processed critical minerals and other derivative products.
(c) The term “processed minerals” refers to minerals that have undergone the activities that occur after mineral ore is extracted from a mine up through its conversion into a metal, metal powder, or a master alloy. These activities specifically occur beginning from the point at which ores are converted into oxide concentrates, separated into oxides, and converted into metals, metal powders, and master alloys.
(d) The term “derivative products” includes all goods that incorporate processed minerals as inputs. These goods include semi-finished goods (such as semiconductor wafers, anodes, and cathodes) as well as final products (such as permanent magnets, motors, electric vehicles, batteries, smartphones, microprocessors, radar systems, wind turbines and their components, and advanced optical devices).
