Executive Summary

  • TomaGold has commenced a ~1,500‑m Phase 2 diamond drilling program targeting the newly identified “Berrigan Deep” zone and extending five previously completed holes (TOM‑25‑009 to TOM‑25‑013).
  • The deepest intercept to date from Phase 1 (hole TOM‑25‑015) returned 5.08 % ZnEq (1.19 g/t AuEq) over 98.50 m, including a high‑grade sub‑interval of 23.20 % ZnEq (5.44 g/t AuEq) over 4.90 m.
  • The extension holes aim to intersect the core of modeled conductive plates, which could substantially increase the volume of mineralization and improve project economics.

Key Details

  • Phase 2 Program: ~1,500 m total length; five extension holes (TOM‑25‑009 – 013) designed to test depth extensions of Phase 1 targets and new geophysical models.
  • Key Intercept (Phase 1 – Hole TOM‑25‑015):
  • 5.08 % ZnEq (1.19 g/t AuEq) over 98.50 m
  • Sub‑interval: 23.20 % ZnEq (5.44 g/t AuEq) over 4.90 m
  • Phase 1 Summary – Selected Holes:
Hole From (m) To (m) Length (m) ZnEq (%) AuEq (g/t)
TOM‑25‑009 156.70 204.75 48.05 5.82 1.36
TOM‑25‑010 108.00 111.00 3.00 2.18 0.51
TOM‑25‑011 291.00 309.50 18.50 1.81 0.42
TOM‑25‑014 185.00 187.10 2.10 24.85 5.83
TOM‑25‑015 451.20 549.70 98.50 5.08 1.19

  • Technical Disclosure: Drilling managed by Explo‑Logik (Val‑d’Or). Core split; half sent to AGAT Laboratories for fire‑assay Au and four‑acid ICP‑OES base‑metal analysis. Qualified Persons: Jean Lafleur, P.Geo. (VP Exploration) & Suzie Tremblay, P.Geo. (VP Operations – Explo‑Logik).

  • Forward‑Looking Statements: Program is expected to test the conductive plate model; results could materially affect resource potential and future development plans.

Notable Quotes

“This next phase will allow us to test the potential of the Berrigan Deep zone, where our best intercept to date returned 5.08 % ZnEq (1.19 g/t AuEq) over 98.50 m… Through these five extension holes, we aim to reach the core of the modeled conductive plates, which could significantly increase the volume of identified mineralization.” – David Grondin, President & CEO
