Trailbreaker Further Deliniates Drill Targets from Airborne Geophysics at Swan Zone, Atsutla Project, British Columbia
TRAILBREAKER FURTHER DELINIATES DRILL TARGETS FROM AIRBORNE GEOPHYSICS AT SWAN
ZONE, ATSUTLA PROJECT, BRITISH COLUMBIA
November 25, 2024 – Trailbreaker Resources Ltd. (TBK.V) (“Trailbreaker” or “the Company”) is pleased
to announce the completion of a combined airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over the Swan
target area within the Atsutla Gold Project, northwestern British Columbia (BC) , Canada . The survey
provides another layer of valuable geophysical data at the Swan gold (Au) - copper (Cu) - silver (Ag)
porphyry target . Drill targeting is being conducted on the Swan target utilizing the geophysical data
collected in 2024.
The primary drill targets at Swan are defined by a coincident donut -shaped chargeability high feature
identified from geophysical and multi element rock and soil geochemical surveying. Rock grab samples
assayed up to 11.7 g/t Au, 95 g/t Ag, and 0.81% Cu within this target . All geophysical features and
geochemical results were obtained from a gossanous mountain which represents a zone of advanced
argillic (clay mineral) alteration of a granodiorite stock.
Message from the President
“We are excited about how the Atsutla Gold Project is taking form, ranging from the high-grade gold veins
at the Western Atsutla area to a compelling Au-Cu-Ag porphyry prospect at the Swan Zone. We are fully
permitted to drill -test both targets and we’ve now completed the necessary exploration groundwork to
effectively target these zones.” – Daithi Mac Gearailt
Airborne Survey
The airborne magnetic and radiometric survey s were completed by Precision GeoSurveys, covering a
43 km2 area over the Swan target on the western side of the Atsutla property. The survey defines a
magnetic low co inciding with the donut -shaped chargeability high, with a subtle magnetic high in the
centre of the donut. The magnetic low may be caused by magnetite-destructive phyllic alteration, whereas
the subtle magnetic high in the center may indicate a magnetite-bearing, potassic altered intrusion at
depth. A zone of enriched potassium (K) relative to thorium (Th) and uranium (U) in radiometric responses
occurs on the eastern side of the centre of the chargeability donut. Elevated K is commonly associated
with K-feldspar and biotite (potassic) alteration.

About the Swan Zone
The Swan Zone is located on the eastern side of the Atsutla Gold project in north western BC. It is a
potential Au-Cu-Ag porphyry system, defined by a 1,400 m by 800 m Au -Ag-Cu-arsenic (As) – antimony
(Sb) – molybdenum (Mo) – lead (Pb) soil geochemical anomaly along a gossanous ridge. The host setting
is a granodiorite porphyry intrusion with zoned advanced argillic and phyllic alteration assemblages.
Bedrock sampling by Trailbreaker in the centre of the soil anomaly has returned values up to 11.5 g/t Au
and 16.8 g/t Ag , associated with sulphide -rich veins. A n ear in -situ (“subcrop”) rock sample retur ned
values of 11.7 g/t Au, 95 g/t Ag, and 0.81% Cu. The surface geochemical anomalies are associated with
advanced argillic alteration, which may represent the upper portion of a porphyry system.
IP surveying around the Swan target defined a donut-shaped chargeability high feature. This chargeability
high is coincident with a relative magnetic low, and the southern portion is coincident with a resistivity
low feature. The combined chargeability high, resistivity low, and magnetic low features are interpreted
to potentially represent the phyllic alteration zone of a porphyry system. The centre of the chargeability
donut is marked by a subtle magnetic high and localized K-alteration identified from radiometric
surveying. This combination may be indicative of potassic style alteration.
About the Atsulta Gold Project
The Atsutla Gold project covers over 40,000 hectares of underexplored and prospective ground in
northwestern BC. The project covers a portion of the Atsutla mountain range 70 km south of the BC-Yukon
border. Placer gold was recorded in the area during the early 1900s , with very little subsequent mineral
exploration.
The project is centered along the crustal-scale Teslin-Thibert fault system that marks the division between
the Quesnel and Cache Creek terranes. Gold mineralization is associated with Mesozoic intrusive
batholiths that are the predominant geological unit on the property. Trailbreaker has discovered two
primary areas of mineralization within the Atsutla Gold Project. These areas and the targets within
include:
• Swan zone – discussed above – an Au-Cu-Ag porphyry target defined by a 1,400 m by 800 m
multi-element soil geochemical anomaly. Rock samples grading up to 11.5 g/t Au and 16.8 g/t Ag
are coincident with a 2.1 km x 1.4 km donut-shaped chargeability high feature.
• Western Atsutla
o Highlands zone – A 750 m by 600 m area in the western Atsutla Gold property area, with
veins containing coarse visible gold and assaying up to 630 g/t Au and 1,894 g/t Ag.
o Christmas Creek zone – Gold-bearing quartz veins 2 .1 km east of the Highlands Zone,
with rock samples assaying up to 102 g/t Au and 524 g/t Ag.
o Snook zone – High-grade veins 3.5 km northeast of the Highlands Zone, with rock samples
assaying up to 53.3 g/t.
o Willie Jack zone – 1.25 km long gold -in-soil anomaly with soil samples assaying up to
3.77 g/t Au and rock samples up to 9.9 g/t Au.
