Fortitude Gold Achieves 2023 Annual Gold Production Target

COLORADO SPRINGS – January 18, 2024 – Fortitude Gold Corp. (OTCQB: FTCO) (the “Company”) today announced preliminary 2023 annual production results.  The Company produced 37,996 gold ounces in 2023, successfully reaching its targeted 36,000 to 40,000 gold ounce production range.  Fortitude Gold is a gold producer, developer, and explorer with operations in Nevada, U.S.A. offering investors exposure to both gold production and dividend yield.

“2023 marked another excellent year for our Isabella Pearl operation delivering low-cost gold production and strong shareholder cash dividends,” stated Mr. Jason Reid, Fortitude Gold’s CEO and President.  “The Isabella Pearl project to date has exceeded our expectations both in longevity and gold production since our initial production decision and commencement of operations.  We currently await Bureau of Land Management approval to mine additional benches of transitional high-grade gold ore below the current permitted pit bottom in the Pearl zone.  An estimated four benches in this zone were scheduled to be mined in the fourth quarter of 2023 and are now targeted for the first quarter of 2024.  We continue to mine ore from the northern Civit Cat zone of the deposit.” 

Mr. Reid continued, “We continue to advance our County Line and Golden Mile projects, both currently in the permitting phase with the Bureau of Land Management.  We target County Line as our next mine, and we are ready to begin construction upon receiving the required permits.”

Full financial results for 2023 will be available at the time the Company files its Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
