US-Based, NYSE MKT Listed Industry Leading Gold Ownership Per Share NYSE MKT: PZG May 2017 Exhibit 99.1

This Presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable securities laws relating to Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. (“Paramount”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”) which represent our current expectations or beliefs including, but not limited to, statements concerning our operations, performance, and financial condition. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, credit losses, dependence on management and key personnel, variability of quarterly results, and our ability to continue growth. Statements in this presentation regarding planned drilling activities and any other statements about Paramount’s future expectations, beliefs, goals, plans or prospects constitute forward-looking statements. For this purpose, any statements contained in this presentation that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “may”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “could”, “estimate”, or “continue” or the negative or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Other matters such as our growth strategy and competition are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes and results could differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors, nor can we assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors - All mineral resources have been estimated in accordance with the definition standards on mineral resources and mineral reserves of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum referred to in National Instrument 43-101. U.S. reporting requirements for disclosure of mineral properties are governed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Industry Guide 7. Canadian and Guide 7 standards are substantially different. The SEC permits mining companies, in their filings, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce. We use certain terms in this document, such as "reserves," "resources," "geologic resources," "proven," "probable," "measured," "indicated," and "inferred," which are not recognized under Industry Guide 7. U.S. Investors should be aware that the issuer has no "reserves" as defined by Industry Guide 7 and are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral resources will be confirmed or converted into Industry Guide 7 compliant "reserves". Disclosure of "contained ounces" in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute Industry Guide 7 "reserves" by SEC standards as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS paramountnevada.com | @ParamountNV

paramountnevada.com | @ParamountNV Oregon Is Now Open for Business Mining contributes to the economy and well-being of the people of Oregon.* The mining of minerals is a natural resource use.* In eastern Oregon, including Lake, Harney, Malheur, Baker and Grant Counties, diversifying the types of natural resource uses that contribute to local economies enables those economies to better withstand temporary economic declines that affect specific natural resource uses. In the same way that a diversified economy is good for a large metropolitan area, a diversified natural resource economy is good for eastern Oregon.* Technological advances in the mining industry, coupled with reclamation efforts, have greatly reduced the environmental impacts of mining operations. The size and scope of modern operations is such that the operations do not cause interference with other natural resource uses, particularly in an area as vast as eastern Oregon.* Mining operations should be encouraged and supported in eastern Oregon as a means for residents and communities to improve their economies and well-being.* *Cited from 517.005 was enacted into law by the Legislative Assembly in 2015 [c.826 §1]
