Dryden Gold More Than Triples the Scale of

the Elora Gold System with its 2025

Exploration Program

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 12, 2025) -

Dryden Gold Corp. (TSXV:

DRY) (OTCQB: DRYGF) (FSE: X7W)

("

Dryden Gold

" or the "

Company

") reports the final results from

its 2025 drill program along the rapidly expanding, open-ended, high grade Elora Gold System. During

2025, the Company has more than tripled the size of the principal structure, the Elora Shear zone, to

over 800 metres along strike. The most recent results show good continuity between the historic Jubilee

and Pearl occurrences (Figure 1). The Elora Gold System remains open at depth, with the vast majority

of drill holes still above the 200-meter vertical level. In addition, the 2025 program discovered, and begun

to outline, several sub-parallel, gold bearing structures in the hanging wall

("HW")

to the Elora Shear

(Figure 2).

In near-surface drilling, holes DGR-25-029 and DGR-25-030A returned the widest intervals to

date on both the HW2 and HW3 structures while drill hole DGR-25-028 intercepted the widest interval to

date on the Elora Shear (Table 1). See video

Overall, the program has been a significant success and sets the stage for rapid growth in the Gold Rock

Target Area with its fully funded 2026 exploration program.

Trey Wasser, CEO of Dryden Gold states, "The most important of our four goals for the 2025 exploration

program was to expand the size of the Elora Gold System. From this spring's high-grade discovery at

Pearl, to the discovery of high-grade gold mineralization in the new Hanging Wall structures and with the

continuity of the main Elora Shear Zone now being demonstrated, we are in a great position as we lay

out our 2026 drill program at Gold Rock. Figure 1 clearly demonstrates this significant progress and

outlines a continuous zone of gold mineralization for over 600 metres which remains open for expansion.

Combined with the promising early-stage discoveries at Sherridon & Hyndman, we have now delivered

on three of our four 2025 goals. We have recently completed initial drill testing of our Mug Lake target

(assays pending) with the objective of outlining the broader potential of the greater Gold Rock Camp,

which was our fourth goal for 2025."

Between Pearl and Laurentian, DGR-25-020 intersected five gold mineralized structures, at shallow

depths. However, there is a narrowing of the structures and lower grades north of Pearl that is believed

to be related to faults or other structural factors. Recently drilled hole DGR-25-031 drill tested across the

Elora Gold System and the Big Master Gold System from Pearl to north of Treasure. This hole

encountered a significant fault structure which the geology team believes is playing a role in this

narrowing of the mineralized structures. Further geological work is underway to improve targeting at the

northern portion of the Gold Rock Target Area.

Kolb, M.Sc., P.Geo., President of Dryden Gold and a "qualified person" within the meaning defined by

National Instrument 43-101. Verification included examination of the drill core, core photos, the assay

data and related databases.

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 the mineralization is unknown, result intervals are reported

as the drilled core lengths unless otherwise stated. All sampling completed by Dryden Gold Corp. within

its exploration programs is subject to a Company 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 and 2025 program were sent to

Activation Laboratories, with sample preparation and analysis in Dryden, where they 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 meets assay

requirements outlined for NI 43-101.
