Update on Drilling on Chibougamau's Berrigan Mine Asset

Berrigan Deep Discovery Confirmed, Phase 2 Drilling Underway Amidst Financing Dilution

Executive Summary
  • Most Recent Update (May 29, 2026): TomaGold reports an update on drilling at the Chibougamau's Berrigan Mine asset. The release reiterates significant mineralization intersected in drill holes TOM-25-014 and TOM-25-015, which were originally reported in January 2026 as the discovery of the "Berrigan Deep" zone.
  • Phase 2 Status: Phase 2 drilling is underway to extend previous holes (TOM-25-009 to TOM-25-013) targeting the Berrigan Deep zone. Samples from extension holes (TOM-25-009EXT, etc.) were shipped in late May with results expected shortly.
  • Geophysical Plans: Concurrent plans include ground prospecting and advanced geophysical surveys (BHEM, UTEM, AMT) over a 4 km by 2 km corridor to identify new regional conductors.
  • Historical Context: The news confirms the viability of the January discovery but does not provide new assay results for the Phase 2 extension holes in this specific release, serving primarily as an operational status update following the May 28 completion announcement.
Material Impact
  • Incremental Nature: The most recent news is largely a confirmation of previous material positive announcements (January 2026 discovery) rather than a new discovery or assay result that changes the valuation thesis immediately.
  • Operational Continuity: It confirms management is executing on the Phase 2 plan announced in March and May, validating the company's commitment to the project despite recent financing dilution.
  • Lack of New Data: The absence of new assay results for the extension holes (TOM-25-009EXT etc.) in this specific release limits its immediate materiality compared to the January discovery news.
  • Market Expectation: Given the prior announcements, this update is expected by investors tracking the project progression and does not represent a surprise catalyst.
