[27-March-2026]

PERTH, Western Australia, March 26, 2026 /CNW/ - Westgold Resources Limited (ASX: WGX) (TSX: WGX) – Westgold or the Company) is pleased to advise that Valiant Gold Limited (ASX: VAL) -Valiant or Valiant Gold) has been admitted to the Official List of the ASX, with Valiant's fully paid ordinary shares expected to commence trading at 1.00pm AEDT today.

Highlights

	Valiant (ASX: VAL) lists on the ASX following completion of its significantly oversubscribed IPO - raising $75M (before costs) through the issue of 300M shares at $0.25 per share.
	$20M Priority Offer to Eligible Westgold Shareholders oversubscribed.
	Valiant emerges as a well‑funded, independent gold company - holding the Reedy and Comet Projects in WA's Murchison region, currently hosting ~1.2Moz JORC‑compliant Mineral Resources.¹
	Westgold retains a significant ~44% equity interest in Valiant post‑listing - subject to a 24‑month escrow period commencing on the date Valiant's shares are quoted on the ASX for the first time.
	Ore Purchase Agreement with Westgold provides a pathway to potential early cashflow - and supplementary ore flow to Westgold that is not currently in the 3 Year Outlook.

Westgold Managing Director and CEO Wayne Bramwell commented:

"Westgold congratulates the Valiant team on the successful listing of Valiant Gold. This is a significant milestone for both companies and creates a new Australian gold company that will focus on advancing the smaller Reedy and Comet Gold Projects, while Westgold continues to focus on scaling value from our larger, core Murchison and Southern Goldfields operations.

Our retained equity interest ensures Westgold shareholders continue to benefit from Valiant's progress whilst the Ore Purchase Agreement provides an early revenue pathway for Valiant and incremental ore feed opportunities for Westgold's strategic regional processing hubs."

This announcement is authorised for release to the ASX by the Board.

These materials prepared by Westgold Resources Limited include forward looking statements. Often, but not always, forward looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward looking words such as "may", "will", "expect", "intend", "believe", "forecast", "predict", "plan", "estimate", "anticipate", "continue", and "guidance", or other similar words and may include, without limitation, statements regarding plans, strategies and objectives of management, anticipated production or construction commencement dates and expected costs or production outputs.

Forward looking statements inherently involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the Company's actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements. Relevant factors may include, but are not limited to, changes in commodity prices, foreign exchange fluctuations and general economic conditions, increased costs and demand for production inputs, the speculative nature of exploration and project development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits and diminishing quantities or grades of reserves, political and social risks, changes to the regulatory framework within which the Company operates or may in the future operate, environmental conditions including extreme weather conditions, recruitment and retention of personnel, industrial relations issues and litigation.
