NEWS RELEASE
Trident Resources Initiates Exploration Program at Greywacke and Hailstone Properties
in Saskatchewan
Vancouver, BC, October 1st, 2025 – Trident Resources Corp. (TSX-V: ROCK) (OTCQB :
TRDTF) (“Trident” or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce it is launching a geological
mapping and geochemical sampling program at its 100% -owned Greywacke and Hailstone
properties in Saskatchewan. This program will focus on identifying and expanding known gold
showings to support future drill targeting. Trident sees strong potential in the underexplored La
Ronge Gold Belt, which hosts multiple gold deposits but has seen limited exploration in the past
50 years.
Fall 2025 Exploration Program:
The upcoming field program will focus on the Greywacke Property, which hosts the Greywacke
Gold Deposit. This deposit contains a historical (2021) mineral resource estimate of:
• 101,000 oz. of gold @ 4.90 g/t (Indicated Mineral Resources)
• 54,000 oz. of gold @ 4.24 g/t (Inferred Mineral Resources)
Gold mineralization at Greywacke extends for several kilometers both northeast and southwest,
including at known showings such as Lyons Zone, Hoover Lake, Wasp Lake, and Closure Lake.
Trident will also begin initial work at the nearby Hailstone Property, for which Trident recently
signed an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest.

Jonathan Wiesblatt, Chief Executive Officer of Trident, commented: “The La Ronge Gold Belt is
underexplored and has the potential to host multiple multi-million-ounce gold deposits. Greywacke
is particularly promising and could quickly grow in size with minimal drilling. That makes it one of
the top priorities for the company moving forward. In parallel, Trident has expanded its initial drill
program at the Contact Lake Gold Project from 5,000 meters to over 6,500 meters in 18–20 drill
holes. This decision was based on promising early visuals of mineralization. The Company is fully
funded, with over C$12.5 million in its treasury.
Further, we expect ample news flow in the coming months from this drill program, technical report
updates related to the company’s ongoing Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) work, and continued
consolidation of properties in this prolific gold district.”
Geological Discussion:
The Greywacke Lake Gold Project is located approximately 88 km northeast of La Ronge and 22
km northeast of the community of Missinipe. Road access to the 16,078-hectare (6 claims) project
is available via an 11 km access trail that branches southeast from Highway 102. The main project
area is comprised of three sub-parallel zones, North, Central and South that are part of the 7 km
Wacke Mineralization Trend. The Greywacke North Gold Deposit is located in the North Zone and
hosts a historical Mineral Resource Estimate (2021). Other mineralized targets along the Wacke
trend include:
The Closure Lake and Lyons Zone Showings are located 930m and 1 ,200m along strike to the
southwest of the Greywacke North Deposit. These showings are hosted by the same biotite
arenite unit that hosts the Greywacke North Deposit. Mineralization consists of a combined 3 %
pyrite + pyrrhotite and 5% magnetite disseminations and fracture fillings with associated fine -
grained (non-visible) gold.
The Hoover Gold Showing is located 3.5 km northeast of the Greywacke North Deposit. The
stratiform 5m x 15m gold showing consists of two auriferous zones within a sulfide rich biotite
arenite unit that hosts up to a combined 5% pyrite + pyrrhotite. Gold occurs as visible grains and
intergrowths with the sulfides.
The Wasp Lake Showing is located 2.4 km northeast of the Hoover Gold Showing. This stratiform
showing, which is on strike and geologically identical to the Greywacke North Gold Deposit,
consists of an auriferous zone within a sulfide-rich biotite arenite with up to 5% pyrite + pyrrhotite
and gold that occurs as visible grains and intergrowths with the sulfides.
The Shandy Lake Showing is located 1.5 km northwest of the Greywacke North Deposit in a
series of metasedimentary rocks that have been intruded by a Berven Lake diorite intrusion. The
showing is hosted in a series of 1m to 3m wide subvertical ENE trending sub-parallel shears that
form a 50m wide zone of deformation that follows the contact between the diorite and the adjacent
lapilli tuffs. Pyrite and associated gold are found as disseminations and fracture fillings in quartz
veins within the shear zone.
