We intend to use those proceeds, if any, for general corporate purposes.
Each
selling stockholder named in this prospectus, or its donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest, may offer or resell
the shares of common stock from time to time through public or private transactions at prevailing market prices, at prices related to
prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. The selling stockholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any,
attributable to the sale of shares, and all selling and other expenses incurred by the selling stockholders. We will bear all costs,
expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the shares of common stock subject to resale hereunder. For additional information
on the methods of sale that may be used by the selling stockholders, see “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 12 of this
prospectus. The selling stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Overview
of the Company
U.S.
Gold Corp. is a gold, copper and precious metals development and exploration company pursuing exploration opportunities primarily in
Wyoming, Nevada and Idaho. While we are an exploration and development company that owns certain mining leases and other mineral rights
comprising the CK Gold Project in Wyoming, the Keystone Project in Nevada and the Challis Gold Project in Idaho, most of our recent activity
has focused on moving the CK Gold Project along the development pathway. Our CK Gold Project’s property contains proven and probable
mineral reserves and accordingly is classified as a development stage property, as defined in subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K (“S-K
1300”) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). None of our other properties contain proven
and probable mineral reserves and all activities are exploratory in nature. We do not currently have any revenue-producing activities.
Corporate
Information
Our
principal executive offices are located at 1910 E. Idaho Street, Suite 102-Box 604, Elko, NV 89801 and our telephone number at that address
is (800) 557-4550. Our web site address is www.usgoldcorp.gold. Information on our website is not incorporated in this prospectus and
is not part of this prospectus, unless otherwise stated.
U.S.
Gold Corp., formerly known as Dataram Corporation (the “Company”), was originally incorporated in the State of New Jersey
in 1967 and was subsequently re-incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in 2016. Effective June 26, 2017, the Company changed
its name to U.S. Gold Corp. from Dataram Corporation.
For
a complete description of our business, financial condition, results of operations and other important information, we refer you to our
filings with the SEC that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K
and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. For instructions on how to find copies of these documents, see the section of this prospectus entitled
“Where You Can Find More Information.”
April
2024 Offering
On
April 15, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) whereby we issued and sold, in
a registered direct offering (the “Registered Direct Offering”), an aggregate of 1,400,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock at a purchase price of $3.50 per share (the “Offering Shares”). The offer and sale of the Offering Shares pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement was made under our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-262415), which was declared
effective by the SEC on May 12, 2022, and the related prospectus supplement dated April 15, 2024. Accordingly, the Offering Shares we
issued and sold under the Purchase Agreement are not included in the 1,400,000 shares of common stock that are being registered for resale
pursuant to the registration statement that includes this prospectus and are not part of the offering covered by this prospectus.
Further,
under the Purchase Agreement in a concurrent private placement (the “Private Placement” and, together with the Registered
Direct Offering, the “Transactions”), we issued and sold Warrants to purchase up to 1,400,000 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $4.48 (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant is exercisable six months from the date of issuance and has a term
expiring five years after such initial exercise date. The aggregate gross proceeds from the Transactions were approximately $4.9 million.

purposes. |

| Risk
Factors |
|
Investing
in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully review and consider the section of this prospectus entitled
“Risk Factors” for a discussion of factors to consider before deciding to invest in shares of our common stock. |
Risk
Factors
Investing
in shares of our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the
risks described under “Risk Factors” in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form
10-Q, together with all of the other information appearing in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus before deciding whether
to purchase any of the common stock being offered. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely
affected by any of these risks. Those risks and uncertainties are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and
uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of these
risks actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer. The trading price of shares of our common
stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
Use
of Proceeds
The
shares of common stock covered by this prospectus are being sold by the selling stockholders. We will not receive any proceeds from the
resale of the shares of common stock by any of the selling stockholders because the shares of common stock will be sold for the account
of each of the selling stockholders, respectively.
Selling
Stockholders
This
prospectus relates to the possible resale by the selling stockholders named below of shares of common stock that may be issued to the
selling stockholders upon exercise of the Warrants. We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part pursuant
to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement, in which we agreed to provide certain registration rights with respect to sales by the selling
stockholders of the shares of common stock that may be issued to the selling stockholders upon exercise of the Warrants.
The
selling stockholders, may, from time to time, offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus any or all of the shares of common stock. The
selling stockholders may sell some, all or none of the shares of common stock. We do not know how long the selling stockholders will
hold the shares of common stock before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the selling
stockholders regarding the sale of any of the shares of common stock.
The
following table presents information regarding the selling stockholders and the shares of common stock that each of them may offer and
sell from time to time under this prospectus. The table is prepared based on information supplied to us by the selling stockholders or
information available to us as of October 4, 2024. None of the selling stockholders nor any of their affiliates has held a position or
office, or had any other material relationship, with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates. The number of shares of common stock
beneficially owned by the selling stockholders has been determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 13d-3 thereunder. The percentage of shares beneficially owned prior to this
offering is based on 10,770,416 shares of our common stock actually outstanding as of October 4, 2024.

Certain
Relationships and Related Party Transactions
Review
of Related Person Transactions
We
do not have a formal written policy for the review and approval of transactions with related parties. However, the Audit Committee Charter
establishes the Audit Committee’s responsibility to review and approve any related party transaction and our Code of Ethics and
Business Conduct provides guidelines for reviewing any related party transaction. In particular, our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct
prohibits conflicts of interest and provides non-exclusive examples of conduct that would violate the prohibition. If any of our employees
are unsure as to whether a conflict of interest exists, the employee is instructed to consult with the Company’s Compliance Officer.
We
annually require each of our directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ or officers’ questionnaire, respectively,
that elicits information about related party transactions. Our board and legal counsel annually review all transactions and relationships
disclosed in the directors’ and officers’ questionnaires, and the board makes a formal determination regarding each director’s
independence. If a director were determined no longer to be independent, that director, if he or she serves on any of the Audit Committee,
the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, or the Compensation Committee, would be removed from such committee prior to (or otherwise
would not participate in) any future meetings of the committee. If the transaction were to present a conflict of interest, the board
would determine the appropriate response.
Plan
of Distribution
Each
selling stockholder of the shares of common stock and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time,
sell any or all of their shares of common stock covered hereby on Nasdaq or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which
the shares of common stock are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling stockholder
may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
| |
● |
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block
as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
privately
negotiated transactions; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
settlement
of short sales; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
in
transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated
price per security; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
through
the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
a
combination of any such methods of sale; or |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The
selling stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other exemption from registration under
the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers
engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions
or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser)
in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in
excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or
markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.
In
connection with the sale of shares of common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions
with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course
of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short and deliver these securities
to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these shares of common stock.
The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create
one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares of common
stock offered by this prospectus, which shares of common stock such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant
to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The
selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters”
within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers
or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or
discounts under the Securities Act. Each selling stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding,
directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.
We
are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares of common stock. We have agreed
to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities
Act.
The
securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In
addition, in certain states, the securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in
the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under
applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously
engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M,
prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the
Common Stock by the selling stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders
and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including
by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

are authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of common stock. As of October 4, 2024, we had 10,770,416 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding.
Dividend
Rights

of our common stock will be entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by our board, out of funds legally available for their

otherwise required by law.
Election
of Directors
Our
directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of our common stock in a meeting at which a quorum is present.
“Plurality” means that the individuals who receive the largest number of votes cast are elected as directors, up to the maximum
number of directors to be chosen at the meeting. Our stockholders may vote to remove any director or the entire board of directors, with
or without cause, by the affirmative vote of two-thirds (2/3) of shares entitled to vote at an election of the directors.
Liquidation
In
the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in
all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock then outstanding.

stock, for the terms of the offering, including the number of shares of common stock offered, any initial offering price and market prices
relating to the common stock.
This
section is a summary and may not describe every aspect of our common stock that may be important to you. We urge you to read applicable
Nevada law, our articles of incorporation, as amended, and our amended and restated bylaws, as currently in effect, because they, and
not this description, define your rights as a holder of our common stock. See “Where You Can Find More Information” on page

Disclosure
of Commission Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and persons controlling
us pursuant to the provisions described in Item 14 of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or otherwise, we
have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses
incurred or paid by our directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is
asserted by our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the common stock being registered, we will, unless in
the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question
whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of the issue.
