SRANAN GOLD Continues to Intercept High-Grade Gold
at Tapanahony, Suriname as 2026 Drilling Program Commences
EDMONTON, AB, CANADA – February 3, 2026 – Sranan Gold Corp. (CSE: SRAN) (OTCQB:
SRANF) (FSE & Tradegate: P84) (“Sranan” or the “Company”) reports further high-grade gold
intercepts from the Randy’s Pit Target including 10.88 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 1 metre
(“m”). These results are the final assays from the 2025 drill program and support the continuity of
the high-grade gold mineralization which remains open along strike and at depth. Diamond drilling
at the Randy’s Pit resumed mid-January with the goal of extending the high-grade gold mineralization
to the north along the 4.5-kilometre Poeketi Shear Zone (“PSZ”).
Highlights
• High-grade intercept of 10.88 g/t Au over 1 m within 10 m grading 1.36 g/t Au.
• Gold mineralization encountered at surface in all holes from weathered veins in saprolite.
• Results support the continuity of the gold zones at the Randy’s Pit Target over 900 m.
• Randy’s Pit Target remains open along strike in both directions and at depth.
• Ongoing 2026 Randy’s Pit drill program expanded by 2,500 m to a minimum of 7,500 m.
• Planning underway to commence drilling at the Poeketi Target during the second quarter.
Commenting on the current assay results and the successful 2025 Tapanahony exploration program
as a whole, Oscar Louzada, CEO of Sranan stated: “Since mid-2025, we have quickly advanced the
Tapanahony Project from early-stage surface sampling, returning high-grade gold grab samples, to
completing 4,198 m of diamond drilling at the Randy’s Pit Target that outlines high-grade gold
mineralization. These last drill assay results from 2025 continue to demonstrate the continuity of
gold mineralization along the PSZ and, as we enter 2026, we have established a firm foundation for
continued high-grade gold discovery with a growing inventory of drill-ready targets.”

Geological Interpretation and Discovery Potential
The PSZ represents a significant structural corridor that hosts shear -controlled gold mineralization
within basaltic rocks . Mineralization is associated with intense deformation, quartz -carbonate
veining, disseminated sulphide mineralization, and strong hydrothermal alteration, characteristic of
orogenic gold systems known for hosting high-grade deposits.
Drilling at the Randy’s Pit confirms the presence of multiple mineralized zones related to shearing,
with gold occurring in both saprolite and unweathered bedrock, highlighting the preservation of gold
grades throughout the weathering profile. The system remains open along strike and at depth. As is
true for all orogenic gold systems associated with shearing , the structural geometry will create
multiple high-grade shoots within the PSZ.
These results further support the Company’s interpretation that the PSZ, which hosts the 4.5 km
Randy’s Pit - Poeketi Trend, is part of a district -scale gold system with significant untested targets
along its trend and considerable blue -sky exploration potential within the 29,000-hectare
Tapanahony Project.
Dennis LaPoint, EVP Exploration and Business Development states: “The Randy’s Pit drilling
continues to deliver significant high-grade gold results and strengthen our confidence that the PSZ
hosts a robust and potentially large gold system. The repeated intersection of shallow, high -grade
mineralization underscores the discovery and expansion potential of this corridor. We believe these
results further validate our strategy to aggressively expand drilling along strike and at depth. In 2026,
it is important to also develop the overall potential of the Tapanahony Project by sampling, mapping
and trenching on the Poeketi Target and additional shear zones.”
Samples were prepared and assayed by Filab in Paramaribo, Suriname. All samples >2 g/t Au were
re-assayed with 50-gram re-assay and gravimetric assay. Standard QA/QC procedures were
followed and showed a satisfactory level of reproducibility. The Company notes that the drill
intercepts may not represent true underlying mineralization. Core logging , photography, and
sampling are completed under strict industry standard QA/QC protocols (Oreas certified reference
materials, assayed coarse blanks, duplicates of core).
