Trailbreaker Receives Advanced Exploration Permit FOR Liberty Copper- Molybdenum Project, British Columbia
TRAILBREAKER RECEIVES ADVANCED EXPLORATION PERMIT FOR LIBERTY COPPER-
MOLYBDENUM PROJECT, BRITISH COLUMBIA
August 24, 2026 – Trailbreaker Resources Ltd. (TBK.V) (“Trailbreaker” or “the Company”) is pleased to
announce the receipt of a property-wide exploration permit for its 6,895-hectare Liberty Property, located
in central British Columbia (BC), Canada.
The Liberty Property is a drill-ready copper-molybdenum (Cu-Mo) porphyry target situated 60 km
northwest of Quesnel, BC (Figure 1).
A 5-year Multi-Year Area-Based (MYAB) Mines Act permit has been approved by the BC Ministry of Mining
and Critical Minerals with a provisional expiry date of July 23rd, 2031.
Approved Exploration Activities
• Diamond drilling, based from up to 50 drill pads.
• Construction of temporary work-related structures such as core storage and drill lay-down areas.
• Construction/modification of exploration access trails (up to 17 km).
Daithi Mac Gearailt, CEO of Trailbreaker, commented: “Receiving this advanced exploration permit is a
key milestone for the Liberty Property. We're excited to move forward with testing what we view as a
robust geophysical target within a proven Cu -Mo porphyry district alongside deposits including the
Gibraltar Mine. This permit allows us to advance a more aggressive exploration program, and we look
forward to building on this momentum as we continue to unlock the potential of our project portfolio.”
About the Liberty Property (link to presentation)
The 6,895-hectare Liberty Property is located approximately 60 km northwest of Quesnel, BC and 90 km
southwest of Prince George, BC. The property is fully accessible by resource roads. The Liberty Property
is located within the Traditional Territory of the Nazko First Nation, with whom Trailbreaker is committed
to engagement and to building a working relationship.
The Liberty Property is situated within the Cache Creek terrane, which hosts multiple Cu -Mo porphyry
deposits, including Trekor’s (formerly Taseko) Gibraltar Mine, which is the second largest open-pit copper
mine in Canada. Located 110 km southeast of the Liberty Property, the Gibraltar Mine has Proven and

Trailbreaker’s 2024 drill program at Liberty encountered widespread Cu-Mo porphyry-style mineralization
at the northeastern margin of a large Cu-in-soil geochemical anomaly. Drilling returned numerous ~200m+
intervals of low -grade Cu -Mo mineralization (e.g. 213.7 m of 0.07% Cu, 141 ppm Mo in LIB24 -001)
punctuated by higher-grade mineralization (e.g. 34.2 m of 0.18% Cu, 428 ppm Mo, in turn including 5.9 m
of 0.69% Cu, 1,994 ppm Mo in LIB24 -003) (see July 22, 2024 news release ). Mineralization is coincident
with an induced polarization (IP) chargeability feature and is hosted in porphyritic granodiorite.
Soil sampling in 2024 defined a property-scale (~10 km in length and up to 1.8 km wide) arc -shaped, Cu-
in-soil anomaly. Prospecting within the southwestern portion of the geochemical anomaly has defined an
area of high -grade copper mineralization, with grab samples assaying up to 23.71% Cu (see September
16, 2024 news release). This high-grade copper mineralization is interpreted to be genetically related to a
large Cu-Mo porphyry mineralization system.
Drill Targeting at Liberty
Future drill targets at Liberty have been d etermined from the results of the 2024 IP survey, the 2024
airborne ZTEM (Z-axis Tipper electromagnetic) survey, and the surface geochemical surveys (see January
13, 2025 news release). Figure 2 displays the three target areas, shown as P1, P2, and P3.
Figure 2: P1 target is defined by a large zone of low to moderate IP chargeability (>7 mV/V), centered
on an area of strong chargeability (>20 mV/V). This chargeability anomaly occurs within the resistive
intrusive complex, where no outcrop is present. The target is ‘up-ice’ of the glacially transported multi-
element anomaly, the focus of past exploration. Drilling in 2024 intersected the northern extent of the
chargeability anomaly and displayed long intervals of continuous Cu-Mo mineralization in drill core.
Similar ZTEM, magnetic, and geochemical characteristics of P1 are observed at both P2 and P3, defining
additional porphyry targets at Liberty.
For more information on this target see the Liberty Project webpage.
