Colorado Springs, Colorado – July 6, 2021 – Fortitude Gold Corp. (OTCQB: FTCO) (the “Company”) today announced it has increased its monthly dividend 16.7% to $0.035 per common share, or $0.42 annually.  Fortitude Gold is a gold producer, developer, and explorer with operations in Nevada, U.S.A.

“The Isabella Pearl mine is exceeding expectations,” stated Fortitude Gold’s CEO and President, Mr. Jason Reid.  “The dividend increase is based off strong second quarter operational performance and production which has delivered an increasingly strong cash position reflecting our ability and confidence to generate significant free cash from our high-grade Isabella Pearl gold mine.  The Board of Directors is pleased to reward shareholders with this second dividend increase in as many months and remains focused on returning as much cash back to shareholders as possible, while balancing the capital needs of our operations, paying taxes and providing for future Company growth.”
