Trailbreaker Resources Completes Drilling at the Swan Zone, Atsutla GOLD Project, British Columbia
TRAILBREAKER RESOURCES COMPLETES DRILLING AT THE SWAN ZONE, ATSUTLA GOLD
PROJECT, BRITISH COLUMBIA
August 10, 2026 – Trailbreaker Resources Ltd. (TBK.V) ("Trailbreaker" or "the Company") is pleased to
announce the completion of its maiden drill program at the Swan Zone, within Trailbreaker’s 100%-
owned, 300 km² Atsutla Gold Project in northwestern British Columbia (BC), Canada.
The Swan Zone is a Cu-Au-Ag (copper-gold-silver) porphyry target defined by coincident geochemical and
geophysical anomalies. The recently completed diamond drill program was part of a larger drill program
that also targeted the Highlands Zone, a high -grade vein-hosted gold target . The two zones are 26 km
apart and hosted in entirely different geological units. The Highlands Zone is hosted in the Jurassic
Christmas Creek batholith, and the Swan Zone is hosted in the Cretaceous Glundebery batholith.

The completed diamond drill program at the Swan Zone consisted of two holes totalling 801.00 metres
(see Table 1 for collar information). The drilling comprised initial testing along a strike length of 1,000 m
and a vertical extent of 395 m. For details on the Swan Zone drill target, see the July 27, 2026 news release.
The preceding diamond drill program at the Highlands Zone consisted of four holes totalling 883.40
metres. The drilling tested a strike length of 500 m and a vertical extent of 412 m. For details on the
Highlands Zone drill target, see the June 29, 2026 news release.

A total of 1,000 drill core samples (including standard reference material and blank samples placed at
regular intervals) were submitted to Bureau Veritas’ prep lab in Whitehorse, YT. Assay results will be
released following compilation and data verification.
Message from the President
"This was a well-executed drill program that provided us with an excellent opportunity to finally test two
quality targets that we have been developing for the past five years. This was a first -pass, exploratory
program, and we achieved our goals while remaining within budget. I would like to thank our drill
contractor, Empire Drilling, and the Trailbreaker team for all of their hard work.” – Daithi Mac Gearailt
More about the Atsutla Gold Project
The Atsutla Gold Project is centered over the regional-scale Teslin-Thibert fault system which marks the
contact between the Quesnel and Cache Creek terranes. Gold mineralization is associated with two
distinct Mesozoic batholitic intrusions that are the predominant geological unit s on the property. Since
discovery in 2020, Trailbreaker has outlined five significant zones of gold mineralization on the property,
across a span of 26 kilometers. These are:
• Highlands Zone – A 2.0 km by 1.5 km area in the western Atsutla Gold Project region, with veins
containing coarse visible gold assaying up to 630 g/t Au and 1,894 g/t Ag.
• Christmas Creek Zone – Gold-bearing quartz veins 1.5 km east of the Highlands Zone, with rock
samples assaying up to 102 g/t Au and 524 g/t Ag.
• Snook Zone – High-grade veins 3.5 km northeast of the Highlands Zone , with rock samples
assaying up to 53.3 g/t.
• 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.
• Swan Zone – A Cu -Au-Ag porphyry target defined by a 1.5 km x 1.5 km multi-element soil
geochemical anomaly (Au-Cu-Ag-As [arsenic]-Mo [molybdenum]-Sb [antimony]-Bi [bismuth]),
with rock grab samples grading up to 11.7 g/t Au, 212 g/t Ag, and 0.81% Cu . The geochemical
anomaly is coincident with a 2.1 km x 1.4 km donut-shaped chargeability high (defined by a 2024
induced polarization survey) as well as a zone of elevated potassium marked by a magnetic low
signature indicated from a 2024 airborne magnetic and radiometric survey.
