Fiore Gold Ltd. Reports Record Quarterly Gold Production and Additions to the Mineral Reserves at Its Pan Mine, Nevada

VANCOUVER, April 9, 2019 - Fiore Gold Ltd. (TSXV: F) (OTCQB: FIOGF) ("Fiore" or the "Company") is pleased to announce preliminary production results for the Company's second fiscal quarter ("Q2") ended March 31st, 2018, as well as an updated reserve estimate for its Pan open pit mine in White Pine County, Nevada.

Highlights:

• Record quarterly gold production of 10,759 ounces, a 9% increase over the preceding quarter
• Gold sales of 10,737 ounces, a 10% increase over the preceding quarter
• Mined ore production in fiscal Q2 slightly below plan at approximately 13,211 tons per day ("tpd"), with the stripping ratio at 1.6
• 20,843 man-hours worked, achieving our goal of zero reportable incidents, zero reportable accidents, and zero lost-time injuries. Currently the operation is at 1,047 consecutive days of attaining this Triple-Zero achievement
• Updated Proven and Probable mineral reserves of 18.5 million tons at a gold grade of 0.015 oz/st (0.51 g/t) containing 275,600 ounces of gold (Table 1)
• Extension of the mine life at Pan by eight months at 14,000 tons per day of ore while maintaining a low life of mine strip ratio of 1.6:1

Tim Warman, Fiore's CEO commented, "Our team at Pan has delivered another solid quarter, with gold production exceeding 10,000 ounces for the first time while maintaining our high standards for safety and environmental protection. Pan continues to perform strongly on a run of mine basis with further improvements expected as we commission the crusher in June this year. The investment in the crusher will further benefit from our 2018 drill program which was successful in building the resource and reserve base and extending the mine life into 2023 at current mining rates. The 2018 drilling program also highlighted several areas in the vicinity of the Pan North Pit where mineralization remains open with excellent potential to further increase the near-mine resource and reserve base with additional drilling. Numerous additional targets remain to be tested along strike from the existing Pan deposit."

A drilling program in 2019 aimed at further increasing the reserve base will target conversion of the 8.4 million tons of Inferred resources that exists within and adjacent to the existing reserve pits (Table 2), as well as testing new areas where the deposit remains open, particularly to the west of the North Pit.

Reserve and Resource Update

Table 1. Pan Mine Reserve Statement (effective September 30, 2018)

• Reserves stated in the table above are contained within an engineered pit design following the US$1,250/oz Au sales price Lerchs-Grossmann pit. Date of topography is October 23, 2018;
• In the table above and subsequent text, the abbreviation "st" denotes US short tons and "t" denotes metric tonnes;
• Costs used include an ore mining cost of US$2.02/st, a waste mining cost of $1.60/st, an ore processing and G&A cost of US$3.40/st;
• Reserves for South Pan and South Satellite Pits are based upon a minimum 0.004 oz/st Au internal cut off grade ("CoG"), using a US$1,250/oz €‘Au sales price, an Au Recovery of 85%, and an Au Sales cost of US$3.48/oz;
• Reserves for North Pan, Black Stallion and Syncline Pits are based upon a minimum 0.006 oz/st Au Internal CoG, using a US$1,250/oz €‘Au sales price, an Au Recovery of 62%, and an Au sales cost of US$3.48/oz;
• Mineral Reserves stated above are contained within and are not additional to the Mineral Resource; and,
• Numbers in the table have been rounded to reflect the accuracy of the estimate and may not sum due to rounding.

Table 2. Pan Mine Resource Statement (effective September 30, 2018)

• Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that any part of the Mineral Resources estimated will be converted into Mineral Reserves;
• In the table above and subsequent text, the abbreviation "st" denotes US short tons and "t" denotes metric tonnes;
• Resources stated as contained within a constrained pit shell; pit optimization was based on an assumed gold price of US$1,350/oz, North and Central area recoveries of 62% for Au and a Southern area recovery of 85% for Au, an ore mining cost of US$2.02/st, a waste mining cost of $1.60/st, an ore processing and G&A cost of US$3.34/st, and a pit slope of 50 degrees in the North and 45 degrees in the South and Central Areas;
• Resources are reported using an internal gold cut off grade of 0.005 oz/st in the North and Central Areas and 0.004 oz/st in the South Area; and,
• Numbers in the table have been rounded to reflect the accuracy of the estimate and may not sum due to rounding.

The updated Pan reserve estimate was carried out by SRK Consulting US Inc. ("SRK"), the same firm who completed the February 2017 resource and reserve estimate. The approach to modelling and estimating for the resource update was unchanged from 2017 other than the inclusion of approximately 28,730 feet (8,757 m) of reverse circulation drilling carried out in early 2018, primarily in the vicinity of the Pan North Pit, minor modifications to the geological model, and updating the mining and processing costs as noted above to reflect the past 19 months of operating experience at the Pan Mine. Assumptions on cutoff grades and pit slopes are unchanged from the February 2017 estimate, while the gold price in the new model reserve pit was increased from $1,200/oz to $1,250/oz.
