The Plutonic Gold operations are located in Western Australia and are comprised of the 100%-owned Plutonic underground and open pit gold mines, the 100%-owned Hermes open pit project, and the 80%-owned interest in the Bryah Basin Joint Venture which includes the Hermes South open pit project.

• Ettienne du Plessis (Chief Geologist at Plutonic Gold Mine), MAIG, BSc (Geology), MBA
• Karel Steyn (Manager of Technical Services at Plutonic Gold Mine), MAusIMM, AEng
• Russell Cole (Vice President and General Manager at Plutonic Gold Mine), FAusIMM, B. App Sc. (Mining Engineering), Adv. Dip. Leadership & Management, MBA

All three are "qualified persons" within the meaning of NI 43-101 Qualified Persons who have approved the disclosure of the scientific and technical information in this press release but are not independent of the Company within the meaning of NI 43-101. The Report supports the scientific and technical disclosure in the updated Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates contained in the Company's press release dated May 25, 2022.

Comparisons are made to the prior Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates as described in the previously filed National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") report with an effective date of December 31, 2019.

Mr. Ettienne Du Plessis (BSc, MBA), a Member of the Australasian Institute of Geosciences (AIG) and a "qualified person" within the meaning of NI 43-101, has approved the disclosure of the Mineral Resource estimates' technical information and data. Mr. Du Plessis is the Chief Geologist and full-time employee of Billabong Gold Pty Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Superior Gold Inc.

The Technical Report does not form the basis of a feasibility study or a pre-feasibility study under the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum's "CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves" incorporated by reference into NI 43-101. As an operating mine, the Plutonic Gold Mine is supported by information that exceeds the accuracy expected from a feasibility study.

Statements relating to mineral reserves or mineral resources are deemed to be forward-looking information as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that the mineral reserves and mineral resources described can be profitably mined in the future. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The Company's mineral resources and mineral reserves estimates described in this press release are only estimates and no assurance can be given that the anticipated tonnages and grades will be achieved, that the indicated level of recovery will be realized, or that mineral reserves will be mined or processed profitably. Mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates may require downward adjustments or revisions based on gold price fluctuations, grades, further development activity, increased production costs or reduced recovery rates, new information or modeling adjustments, changes to laws and regulations affecting operating costs, and the fiscal environment. If actual mineral reserves and mineral resources are less than current estimates, the Company's results of operations or financial condition may be materially and adversely affected."

Superior Gold is a Canadian-based gold producer that owns 100% of the Plutonic Gold Operations located in Western Australia. The Plutonic Gold Operations include the Plutonic underground gold mine and central mill, numerous open-pit projects including the Plutonic Main Pit push-back project, the Hermes open pit projects, and an interest in the Bryah Basin joint venture.
