TDG Gold Delivers Transformational 2025 and Advances 2026 Growth Strategy with a Strong Treasury

The most recent news release from December 16, 2025, provides a year-end corporate update for TDG Gold Corp., highlighting its achievements in 2025 and outlining its strategy for 2026. Key takeaways include:

• Transformational 2025: The company points to the Aurora West discovery as a primary achievement, noting a 600% share price appreciation year-over-year. It completed 14,400 meters of drilling in 22 holes at Aurora West, outlining an approximately 600-meter long extension of the Aurora Complex. Results from 9 holes have been released, with the remaining assays expected in early Q1 2026. The release also highlights the acquisition of the Anyox Copper Project and the closing of a C$28.75 million financing package.
• 2026 Growth Strategy: TDG Gold projects a strong treasury of C$20 million for 2026, indicating sound financial health for upcoming operations. The company plans a 3,000-meter drilling program at the Anyox Copper Project in 2026.
• Shasta Resource: The release reiterates the Shasta Indicated Resource of 515.8 thousand ounces (koz) Gold Equivalent (AuEq) and Inferred Resource of 505.5 koz AuEq, previously updated in January 2025.

This news release serves as a comprehensive summary of TDG Gold's significant achievements in 2025 and provides a forward-looking strategic plan for 2026. While positive, it largely confirms information previously disclosed through a series of material announcements throughout the year.

• Operational Execution: The confirmation of 14,400 meters of drilling and the delineation of a 600-meter extension at Aurora West demonstrate robust operational execution, building on the series of strong drill results reported in September, October, and November 2025. The stated 600% share price appreciation underscores the market's positive reaction to these prior discoveries.
• Financial Stability: The projection of a C$20 million treasury for 2026, following the C$28.75 million financing earlier in 2025, indicates the company is well-funded to execute its planned exploration programs for the upcoming year, particularly the 3,000-meter drill program at Anyox. This is consistent with earlier guidance on the use of proceeds for exploration.
• Strategic Growth: The successful acquisition of Anyox Copper, a former-producing asset with critical mineral potential, coupled with the continued advancement of the Greater Shasta-Newberry (GSN) project, positions TDG for diversified growth in both precious and critical metals.
• Alignment with Expectations: The news is largely in line with expectations set by previous announcements. The company has delivered on its ambitious 2025 exploration and corporate development goals. The mention of remaining Aurora West assays in early Q1 2026 creates a clear, near-term catalyst.
• Overall Impact: This release is a positive recap and forward guidance, but it does not introduce new, unexpected information that would cause a material shift in the company's valuation or strategic direction beyond what was already priced in from the major financing, acquisition, and multiple successful drill results. Therefore, its impact is categorized as Routine - Positive as it confirms strong performance and sets the stage for continued growth, rather than introducing an entirely new, game-changing development.

TDG Gold Corp. is a Canadian exploration company primarily focused on gold, silver, and copper projects in British Columbia's Toodoggone district, often referred to as the "Golden Horseshoe."

The company's core assets include:

• Greater Shasta-Newberry (GSN) Project: This 100%-owned project hosts the former-producing Shasta gold-silver mine and several exploration targets. It is immediately adjacent to the Freeport-McMoRan Inc./Amarc Resources Ltd. Aurora gold-rich copper porphyry discovery. TDG's recent exploration at Aurora West (within GSN) has been the flagship focus and a major success. The latest MRE (effective Dec 29, 2024) for Shasta shows 515.8 koz AuEq Indicated and 505.5 koz AuEq Inferred.
• Anyox Copper Project: Acquired in July 2025, this project is located in a former-producing copper district on the northwest coast of British Columbia. It hosts the historical Hidden Creek copper mine (1914-1935) and is being explored for Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) and porphyry Cu-Au potential. This acquisition adds critical mineral exposure and provides year-round exploration potential due to its tidewater access.
• Baker Complex: Also in the Toodoggone district, this complex includes the former high-grade underground Baker gold-silver-copper mine and several porphyry targets like Trident and North Quartz.
• Bot Project (Erebus): A newly identified 15 sq km Copper-Molybdenum porphyry target within the Toodoggone District, aimed to be drill-ready by 2026.
• Sofia Property: Acquired from Skeena Resources Ltd. in February 2025, this property is contiguous with TDG's existing claims in the Toodoggone district, expanding its land package and porphyry target generative program.

The company has successfully identified and expanded high-grade copper-gold mineralization at its Aurora West target, confirming its potential to be an extension of the adjacent Aurora discovery.
