Dryden Gold Intersects 15 Gold Mineralized Structures in Single Hole at Gold Rock
Dryden Gold Intersects 15 Gold Mineralized
Structures in Single Hole at Gold Rock
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 2, 2026) -
Dryden Gold Corp. (TSXV: DRY)
(OTCQX: DRYGF) (FSE: X7W)
("
Dryden Gold
" or the "
Company
") is pleased announce the
complete drill results from Drill Hole DGR-031 (
"Gap Hole 2"
) which tested from the footwall of Elora to
the hanging wall of Big Master. Gap Hole 2 intersected a total of 15 gold mineralized structures across
600 meters width. On Big Master it intercepted Treasure at 460 meters true depth. This intersection is
the deepest hole that the Company has drilled at Big Master and graded 2.64 g/t gold over 2.50 meters,
including 10.80 g/t gold over 0.50 meters (Figures 1 & 2).
Previously released results from Gap Hole 2
intersected four high-grade gold mineralized structures at Pearl while additional drilling expanded
Treasure and Barrelman with multiple high-grade gold intercepts (Table 1).
Highlights:
Hole DGR-036 intersects Treasure grading 5.03 g/t gold over 7.50 meters including 43.60
g/t gold 0.58 meters.
Hole DGR-037 intersects Treasure grading 5.73 g/t gold over 2.20 meters including 32.90
g/t gold over 0.30 meters.
Gap Hole 2 intersects Treasure at 460 meters true depth grading 2.64 g/t gold over 2.50
meters including 10.80 g/t gold over 0.50 meters.
Gap Hole 2 returned
77.90 g/t gold over 0.50 meters
in a second footwall zone at Pearl.

Trey Wasser, CEO of Dryden Gold, stated, "Gap Hole 2 significantly expands Gold Rock by intersecting
15 gold mineralized structures over 600 meters. It shows that the high-grade structures discovered in last
year's drilling extend along strike for 500 meters. It proves that Big Master continues to depths of over
450 meters below surface, 200 meters deeper that previous drilling. This nearly doubles the potential of
Big Master where it remains open at depth. Intercepting the stacked mineralized structures also
substantially increases the number of targets at Gold Rock. Drilling this spring will remain focused on
Gold Rock as we proceed with additional permitting at Mud Lake, Hyndman and Sherridon".

To begin the 2026 drill campaign, Gap Hole 2 was drilled across the Gold Rock to test the strike
continuity of the multiple parallel structures intersected last year in Hole DGR-25-018
("Gap Hole 1")
500 meters to the south. Drilling also tested additional targets at Big Master with the goal of expanding
the high-grade mineralization along strike from Spyglass to Treasure and also expanding Barrelman.
The two Gap Holes give geological confidence to the interpretation of multiple parallel gold mineralized
structures that are showing good continuity along strike and across Gold Rock. These holes have shown
favourable geological features between Elora and Big Master further expanding the potential drill targets
at Gold Rock. The geologic cross sections for both Gap Holes show all the mineralized structures which
span over 600 meters width and 500 meters strike length (Figure 3).

Analytical Laboratory and QA/QC Procedures
The Company is drilling NQ size core. Samples are cut in half, with half going to the lab for analysis and
half kept as a record. True thickness/widths of mineralization are unknown; result intervals are reported
as the drilled core lengths unless otherwise stated. All sampling completed by Dryden Gold Corp. within
its exploration programs are subject to the Company's standard of internal quality control and quality
assurance (QA/QC) programs which include the insertion of certified reference materials, blank
materials, and a level of duplicate analysis. Drill samples from the 2024, 2025, and 2026 programs were
sent to Activation Laboratories, with sample preparation and analysis at the Company's facilities in
Dryden. Samples were processed for gold analysis by 50-gram fire assay with an atomic absorption
finish and over limits determined by Fire Assay with a gravimetric finish. Select samples were analyzed
using metallic screens. Activation Laboratories systems conform to requirements of ISO/IEC Standard
17025 guidelines and meet assay requirements outlined for NI 43-101.
