Coast Copper Highlights its Anyox Area Projects and Congratulates Both TDG and Goliath
February 24, 2026 TSX.V: COCO
Vancouver, BC – Coast Copper Corp. (“Coast Copper” or the “Company”; TSX-V: COCO) is pleased to highlight its mineral
claim holdings in the Anyox area of northwestern British Columbia (“B.C.”) based on recent activity in the area by TDG Gold
Corp. (“TDG”) and Goliath Resources Limited (“ Goliath”). Coast Copper first started acquiring its Anyox mineral claims in
October 2024.
Coast Copper congratulates TDG on its recent discovery of the new ‘4300 Zone’ volcanogenic massive sulphide (“ VMS”)
lens which sits below the former producing Hidden Creek mine at TDG’s Anyox project1,4 and which it acquired in July 2025.
The Company also wishes to congratulate Goliath who has been reporting numerous high -grade gold intercepts from its
Surebet discovery1 approximately 20 kilometers (“km”) to the north of Anyox. Coast Copper holds some of the only mineral
claims adjacent and internal to the Goliath ground.
Adam Travis, CEO , comments: “ Leveraging our hundreds of years of combined experience in B.C ., we have been
strategically acquiring key land positions over the last few years , mostly through staking in at least seven active mining
camps including in the Anyox area to capitalize on the millions of dollars in exploration being spent by our neighbours. This
is one aspect of our three-pronged approach whereby we 1) continue to advance our flagship Copper Kettle and Empire
mine projects, 2) gain exposure to silver (Sweeney and Virginia Silver properties) and rare critical elements (Rock Canyon
South and Rock Candy North properties) and 3) monetize our other non-core properties and utilize the funds to advance
our key projects in the least dilutive manner possib le to existing shareholders , of which insiders hold a very significant
portion”.
Anyox Area Mineral Claim Holdings (see Figure 1)2
The Company holds two main blocks of claims in the Anyox area consisting of the Anyox East Islands (approximately 2,002
hectares (“ha”)) and the Bonanza South (404 ha) properties. The Anyox East (Islands) pr operty was acquired in October
2024 over the Jurassic sediments that overlie the volcanic contact and site of VMS mineralization. Limited historical work
including some airborne geophysical anomalies and structural zones with associated intrusive dykes warrant follow up. The
Bonanza South property was acquired in February 2025 and cover s the favourable contact between volcanics and
sediments that hosts mineralization in the Anyox Camp as noted as the potential VMS trend highlighted on Figure 1 sourced
from the TDG Gold website2.
Golddigger Area Claim Holdings (see Figure 1)2
The David property (approximately 1,408 ha) is a thin (1 km) by 7 km east –west and 7 km north-south strip adjacent and
internal to Goliath’s Golddigger property1. In 1990 a small sampling program (3 rock, 11 soil and 7 silt samples) identified
a 900 m long metasedimentary belt and quartz veins with silt samples up to 167 ppb Au (S-17) at “Mastodon South”5. The
Mastodon property (approximately 109 ha) includes a minfile 6 showing which consists of an 820 m long NW trending
siliceous replacement zone 0.3 to 1.8 m wide in a 30 - to 60 -m-wide belt of Middle -Upper Jurassic Hazelton Group
metasedimentary rocks within granitic rocks of the Eocene Coast Plutonic Complex. Precious metal assays range from trace
gold and silver over 1.5 m to 11.0 grams per tonne gold and 3.4 grams per tonne silver over 0.46 m 3, 5.

Next Steps
Based on compilation work completed by the Company and the exciting new results of both TDG and Goliath, the Company
is intending to complete fieldwork this summer consisting of surface sampling, prospecting and geological mapping
followed by possible airborne surveys.

About Coast Copper Corp.
Coast Copper’s flagship projects are the Copper Kettle post-discovery Cu-Au-Mo project located in the Island Copper Cluster
on northern Vancouver Island, the former producing Cu -Au Empire mine also located on northern Vancouver Island and
the former producing Emerald and Virginia Silver mines located near the Huckleberry mine and Smithers in northern B.C.
Coast Copper has an additional 18 projects in B.C. that are available for acquisition, partnering or option that are
strategically located in seven ad vanced mining camps that include the Toodoggone, Golden Triangle Anyox, Goliath
Resources (Golddigger), Babine, Bralorne and Sullivan camps providing exposure and leverage to millions of dollars being
spent on neighboring properties. Coast Copper’s strateg y is to optimize the value of each mineral property within our
portfolio through a combination of prospect generation and discovery focused, high -impact exploration while minimizing
share dilution through active deal-making.
