American Marconi Wireless News - Fortitude Gold Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Preliminary Gold Production

"2024 was another successful year of low-cost gold production and strong shareholder cash dividends for Fortitude Gold, despite the long four challenging years for the resource extractive industries, including permit backlogs, under the Biden Administration," stated Mr. Jason Reid, Fortitude Gold's CEO and President. "We are excited about the next four years under the incoming Trump Administration, who previously demonstrated support for natural resource extraction in the United States, under which our Isabella Peal mine was permitted."

Mr. Reid continued, "For 2025, our mine operations are targeting additional mineral opportunities at Isabella Pearl found outside of the original mine plan. We also remain highly focused on our County Line project, as our next Nevada, U.S.A. mine build, along with the Scarlet expansion at our Isabella Pearl trend, and our Golden Mile project. We will remain focused on obtaining as many mine permits as possible during these next four years."

Full financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2024 will be available at the time the Company files its annual report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
