Hycroft Announces First Quarter 2024 Results

WINNEMUCCA, NV, May 7, 2024 – Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: HYMC) (“Hycroft” or “the Company”) announces quarterly results for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Diane R. Garrett, Hycroft’s President & CEO, commented: “The first quarter of the year continued to build on the strong results produced from our 2022-2023 exploration drill program, which identified a new high-grade silver discovery below the current resource pit that is truly a game changer for the Hycroft Mine. This new discovery has been very well received by the market and is bringing renewed attention to this world-class asset at an opportune time when commodity prices are also putting a spotlight on precious metals companies.

“To underscore the excellent work and successful results by our team, the market has responded positively and in addition, the Company has been included on the Solactive Global Silver Miners Total Return Index, effective May 1, 2024. Everything accomplished throughout the quarter has moved Hycroft further up the value chain and I commend the team for the meticulous and thoughtful work they delivered.”

2024 FIRST QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

Corporate Highlights

Operational Highlights

Diane R. Garrett, President and CEO of Hycroft, commented: “The market for sulfuric acid is in high demand due to the lithium industry and the transition towards green energy, electric vehicles and renewable energy storage. The market is expected to grow substantially with not enough supply to meet that demand. Paired with the significant gold and silver resources we have, sulfuric acid with co-generation of electricity could be an excellent complimentary by-product that could establish Hycroft within the supply chain for the clean energy transition. Trade-off analyses will be completed over the coming months and is critical to ensuring value is maximized for the asset and shareholders.”

In addition, the recent high-grade silver discovery and ongoing 2024 exploration drilling is providing beneficial data towards the potential of an underground starter mine. A higher-grade, smaller start-up mine would mean less initial capital and higher economic returns for shareholders in the early years of the operation. This additional work is expected to be completed over the coming months and as a result, the Company will provide updates on the anticipated timing of the process flow sheet and the associated technical report as information becomes available. Furthermore, additional drill results in the newly discovered high-grade silver underground system are pending with new drilling on-going and that information is important to incorporate into the mine plan.

Ms. Garrett further stated: “All these components are integral to building a right-sized plan for bringing the Hycroft Mine back into production. It is vitally important to design and build the best operation to ensure its long life. Prematurely going into production without exploring every possible opportunity for additional revenue and enhanced economic return is doing a disservice to a world-class asset and our stakeholders. The high-grade discovery is a game changer for Hycroft and we would have missed this opportunity had we rushed to production before that excellent work was completed by our technical team, comprised of industry veterans with incredible knowledge and track records of successful mine development. Taking a methodical approach, testing and refining all options, takes time but has substantial benefits and is being done to ensure value is created for our communities and shareholders through long, sustainable operations.”

About Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation

Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation is a US-based gold and silver company exploring and developing the Hycroft Mine, one of the world’s largest precious metals deposits located in northern Nevada, a Tier-1 mining jurisdiction. After a long history of oxide heap leaching operations, the Company is focused on completing the technical studies to transition the Hycroft Mine into a large-scale milling operation for processing the sulfide ore. In addition, the Company is engaged in a robust exploration drill program to unlock the full potential of our expansive +64,000-acre land package, of which less than 10% has been explored. In 2023, Hycroft announced the discovery of a new high-grade silver system within the known resource area and the delineation of two new high-grade silver trends. These discoveries represent a significant new value driver for the Hycroft Mine that the Company is following up on with additional drilling in 2024.
