Terra Rossa Gold Ltd. Announces Phase 1 Drilling Campaign And Announcement of AGM Results

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Terra Rossa Gold Ltd., (TSXV: TRR) (OTCQB: TRGXF) (“Terra Rossa” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that it has contracted Kluane Drilling S.A.S. to conduct the upcoming drilling program at the Company’s wholly owned Vetas Gold Project in the Santander gold district of Colombia. The program will commence with one diamond drill rig for the upcoming program of up to 5,000m, with drilling expected to commence in early August. The drilling campaign has been planned to focus on two key areas as follows: Drilling targeted verification holes to validate results of the 2010-2013 drill program within key areas of the current mineral resource Drilling targeting additional potential for broader zones of stockwork-type mineralization in Real Minera and other similar occurrences within the titles. Carter Smith stated “I am very pleased to announce this important and exciting next step in the exploration of the Vetas project. To date the team has completed several months of mapping, sampling and data verification which has identified these key targets for initial follow up drilling. The team has also completed significant work with the local communities throughout this time which has ensured that all parties are fully aligned with the projects programs and objectives which will maximise the benefits to these communities as we advance Vetas through the exploration and assessment stages. I look forward to the results of this program as we continue to advance this exciting exploration project” The Vetas Gold Project is part of the Vetas-California gold district, a belt of intrusion-related vein and stockwork quartz gold deposits. At least three intrusive rock types have been recognized on the property intruding the gneiss, including a dacite porphyry. The corresponding verification holes from the top are RM-05, RM-03 and RM-08 at the bottom. The plan is to begin with drill pad RM-03 and verification holes DDH008 & DDH013 due to ease of access. Figure 1. Location of drill pads proposed for Real Minera During the past several months, work completed by the geology team has included reconnaissance geological mapping along the project area to identify the various lithologies and mineral associations - which has also identified several intrusive rock assemblages including a dacite porphyry. A review of the geophysical and geochemical data on rocks and soils has successfully integrated with the historical drillhole data within a 3D project model. (See attached map for location of ongoing geochemical and geophysical mapping). This will now be used as the basis for a detailed surface mapping campaign, followed up by the first pass surface drilling program scheduled to commence next month. Figure 2.
