Vancouver, British Columbia – November 2, 2022 – Whitehorse Gold Corp. (“Whitehorse Gold” or the “Company”) (TSXV: “WHG”; OTCQX: “WHGDF”) is pleased to announce the completion of an updated independent Mineral Resource Estimate for the Skukum Gold-Silver Project (the “Skukum Gold Project”) prepared by P&E Mining Consultants Inc. in accordance of National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) with an effective date of October 28, 2022, a NI 43-101 Technical Report will be filed on SEDAR within 45 days of this news release. The independent Mineral Resource Estimate is based on analytical data from 675 drill holes representing 111,556 metres (“m”) of drilling and 2,925 underground samples.

Highlights of the Skukum Gold Project include:

• Advanced gold camp in Yukon, a top-tier mineral exploration and mining jurisdiction.
• Historical production (1986-1988) of approximately 79,750 oz gold.
• A 300 tpd processing plant, tailings facilities, and a 50-person camp.
• 4,830 m of underground workings.
• Three gold deposits that remain open to expansion, in addition to multiple, under-explored gold zones
• Project covers 170 square km, and is located 55 km south of Whitehorse with direct road access
• 2020 Previous Mineral Resource Estimate*:
  • Total Indicated Contained oz.- 336k oz AuEq
  • Total Inferred Contained oz. – 246K oz AuEq

The Company’s Skukum Gold Project hosts the following total Mineral Resource:

Skukum Gold Project Total Mineral Resource (using a 2.0 g/t AuEq cut-off grade):

The three delineated gold-silver deposits on the Skukum Gold Project (Skukum Creek, Goddell and Mt. Skukum) individually host the following Mineral Resource:

Notes:

1. CIM Definition standards (2014) were used for reporting the Mineral Resources.
2. Mineral Resource Estimate prepared by P&E Mining Consultants Inc. with an effective date of October 28, 2022.
3. Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. An Inferred Mineral Resource is that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality is estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence and sampling. Geological evidence is sufficient to imply but not verify geological and grade or quality continuity. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.
4. A base case cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t Au was calculated at a gold price of $US1,800/oz, silver price of US$23.00/oz and a metal recovery of 95% for gold and 93% for silver, which is believed to provide a reasonable margin over operating and sustaining costs for narrow vein mining and processing.
5. Mineral resources are diluted to a minimum width of 1.5 m.
6. Totals may not sum due to rounding.
