Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 16, 2026) - Maverick Gold and Silver Corp., (CSE: MAV) (OTC Pink: VRCFF) (FSE: VR6) ("Maverick" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of its 2026 exploration program at the Gator Property ("Gator"), located in Pershing and Lander Counties, Nevada. Phase I of the program is expected to be completed within approximately 30 days and will include: "In the six weeks since optioning the Gator property we have identified contractors, performed field visits and initiated our first work program. This all being done with the objective to move towards a drill decision as quickly as possible," stated Ian Foreman, P.Geo, Vice President, Exploration. Gator Property Overview The Gator Property is located approximately 56 km (35 miles) south-southwest of Battle Mountain, a well-established mining hub in north-central Nevada. The property is made up of 160 mining claims that cover 3,306 acres (or 13.4 square kilometres) and located on US federal land under administration of the Bureau of Land Management (or "BLM"). The property has excellent year-round access via all-weather county roads. The Gator Property is situated within a highly prospective region: Exploration Targets The Gator is underlain by prospective lithologies that host and/or are proximal to several mines in the region. Detailed mapping and geochemical analysis at Gator have outlined a distal-disseminated style epithermal Au-Ag mineral system over a seven (7) kilometre long north-south structural corridor. Within this corridor, the Company has identified two high-priority targets: Gator South Target The Gator South target occupies a graben, or a down-dropped block, within the north-south structural trend. This geological environment is comparable to the surface expressions that overlay and/or are proximal to past producing mines in the region. GSX Target Situated along the southern extension of the property, the GSX target is characterized by strongly silicified sediments of the Havallah Formation. Geochemical sampling has identified anomalous gold, mercury, and arsenic over an area measuring approximately 400 by 700 metres. This mineralization is interpreted to represent vapor-phase alteration controlled by fault and fracture networks, overlying a potentially precious metals-bearing hyd...
