DISCLAIMER
This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation (the “Forward-looking Statements”), including with respect to the exploration and drill programs at the Company’s Queensway Project in
Newfoundland. Although the Company believes that such statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts; they are generally, but not
always, identified by the words “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” “projects,” “aims,” “potential,” “goal,” “objective,” “prospective,” and similar expressions, or that events or conditions “will,” “would,” “may,” “can,” “could” or “should” occur,
or are those statements, which, by their nature, refer to future events. The Company cautions that forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company’s management on the date the statements are made and they
involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Consequently, there can be no assurances that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.

Important factors that could cause future results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements include uncertainties related to fluctuations in gold and other commodity prices, uncertainties inherent in the exploration of mineral
properties and the impact and progression of the COVID-19 pandemic and other risk factors set forth in the Company’s final prospectus under the heading “Risk Factors”. The reader is urged to refer to the Company’s reports, publicly available through the
Canadian Securities Administrators’ System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) at www.sedar.com for a more complete discussion of such risk factors and their potential effects. Except to the extent required by applicable securities laws and
the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements if management’s beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not
possible for NFG to predict all of them or assess the impact of each such factor or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any Forward-looking Statement. Any Forward- looking
Statements contained in this presentation are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

Information of a scientific nature related to the Queensway Project included in this presentation is based on the NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Queensway Project, Newfoundland, Canada, dated July 9, 2021, with an effective date of May 27, 2021 (the
“Queensway Report”), prepared by René Sterk, M.Sc., MAIG (RPGeo) FAusIMM CP(Geo) MSEG of RSC Consulting Limited and Stefan Kruse, PhD., P.Geo., (APEGNB, PEGNL, EGBC) of Terrane Geoscience Inc., who are independent qualified persons
under NI 43-101

Greg Matheson, P.Geo., the Chief Operating Officer of the Company, and a qualified person pursuant to NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information contain in this presentation. Mr. Matheson has verified the data disclosed
herein, including sampling, analytical and test data underlying the technical information contained herein. True widths of the new exploration intercepts in this presentation are uncertain. Host structures along the Appleton Fault Zone are generally interpreted
to be steeply dipping and true widths are estimated to be 85% to 95% of reported widths at Keats, 80% to 90% at Lotto, 70% to 90% at Golden Joint, 65% to 75% at Dome, unknown at Cokes, 85% to 95% at Road, unknown at Little-Powerline, and unknown
at Knob. Intervals are calculated at a 1 g/t Au cut-off grade; grades have not been capped in the averaging.

Assays are uncut, and calculated intervals are reported over a minimum length of 2 meters using a lower cutoff of 1.0 g/t Au. All HQ split core assays reported were obtained by either complete sample metallic screen/fire assay or standard 30-gram fire-assaying
with ICP finish at ALS Minerals in Vancouver, British Columbia or by entire sample screened metallic screen fire assay at Eastern Analytical in Springdale, Newfoundland. The whole sample metallic screen assay method is selected by the geologist when
samples contain coarse gold or any samples displaying gold initial fire assay values greater than 1.0 g/t Au. Any samples that returned over-limit values (>100 g/t silver) were analyzed with the Ag- OG62 procedure (Ag by HF-HNO3 -HClO4 digestion with HCl
leach, ICP-AES or AAS finish). Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a Quality Assurance/Quality Control program consistent with National Instrument 43-101 and
industry best practices. Standards and blanks are included with every 20 samples for Quality Assurance/Quality Control purposes by the Company as well as the lab. Approximately 5% of sample pulps are sent to secondary laboratories for check assays.

While the information contained in this presentation is believed to be accurate, New Found Gold expressly disclaims any and all liability for any losses, claims or damages of whatsoever kind based upon the information contained in, or omissions from, this
presentation or any oral communication transmitted in connection therewith. In addition, none of the statements contained in this presentation are intended to be, nor shall be deemed to be, representations or warranties of the Company. Where the information is
from third-party sources, the information is from sources believed to be reliable, but the Company has not independently verified any of such information contained herein.

This presentation is not, and under no circumstances is to be construed as, a prospectus, an offering memorandum, an advertisement or a public offering of securities. Under no circumstances should the information contained herein be considered an offer to
sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

QUEENSWAY NORTH
• 200,000m program ongoing on Queensway North utilizing
  nine drills, planned increase to 10.

• Drilling is targeting two prominent NE trending faults that
  are the vital fluid conduits for gold mineralization:

 Appleton Fault Zone
 • Auriferous quartz veins hosted within shale and greywacke
   identified over 7.8km of strike.
 • Noranda focused with shallow drilling on the Knob target
   south of the Trans Canada Highway.
 • Significant new discoveries at Keats, Golden Joint, and
   Lotto.
 • Infill and step-out drilling ongoing on these zones, as well
   as drill testing multiple additional targets along the AFZ.

 JBP Fault Zone
 • Sedimentary hosted quartz vein gold system identified
   over 12.4km strike.
 • Total historical drilling of 9,872m (54 drill holes).
 • One drill now testing targets along the JBP Fault Zone.

                                                                  TSX-V: NFG | 12

PROJECT GEOLOGY
• The Davidsville Sedimentary
  Group is the primary host on
  the Queensway project for
  gold mineralization.
• Multiple geophysical surveys
  indicate that the primary
  host structures continue for
  approximately 105km of
  strike within this host
  stratigraphy.

LOTTO LONG-SECTION

• Drilling to date at Lotto has
  defined a zone of high-grade
  gold mineralization with
  good continuity to a depth of
  approximately 130m and
  open.

• Mineralization is hosted in
  an    approximately         65o
  dipping vein filled structure.

• The mineralization drilled at
  Lotto is interpreted to
  display epizonal features
  similar to the high-grade
  gold          mineralization
  encountered Keats.

   *Note that the host structures along the
   Appleton Fault Zone are generally
   interpreted to be steeply dipping and true
