TDG GOLD ANNOUNCES ACQUISITION OF ANYOX COPPER AND C$25 MILLION BOUGHT DEAL
PRIVATE PLACEMENT
White Rock, British Columbia, J une 17, 2025. TDG Gold Corp (TSXV: TDG , OTCQX:TDGGF) (the
“Company” or “TDG”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an amalgamation agreement
with Anyox Copper Ltd. (“Anyox”) which holds the former producing Anyox Copper project, located
on the northwest coast of British Columbia, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of TDG (“Subco”), dated
June 16, 2025 (the “ Amalgamation Agreement ”) pursuant to which the Company proposes to
acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Anyox by way of a three -cornered
amalgamation (the “ Acquisition”) under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). In
connection with the Acquisition, the Company is also pleased to announce that it has entered into
an agreement with BMO Capital Markets (“BMO”), acting as lead manager and sole bookrunner,
under which BMO, together with Clarus Securities (“Clarus”), acting as co-lead underwriter, and on
behalf of a syndicate of underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”), has agreed to purchase, on
a bought deal private placement basis, securities of the Company for aggregate gross proceeds of
C$25 million (the “Concurrent Financing”, and together with the Acquisition, the “Transaction”).
Transaction Highlights (an online presentation is available here: link)
The combination of the privately held Anyox Copper p roject and TDG’s strategic tenure position in
the evolving Toodoggone District provides shareholders exposure to precious metals and critical
mineral targets in two established, past-producing mining districts within the ‘Golden Horseshoe’ of
British Columbia (Figure 1). Assuming successful completion of the Transaction, TDG will have the
ability to perform nearly year-round exploration activity, supported by a strong treasury, with cash
greater than C $40 million, and a blue-chip shareholder registry that includes industry recognized
institutional shareholders.
The arrangement also contemplates the appointment of Mr. Paul Geddes P.Geo as TDG’s Vice
President Corporate Development. Mr. Geddes is currently the CEO of Anyox and Senior Vice
President of Exploration & Resource Development for Skeena Gold + Silver (“Skeena”), a strategic
investor in TDG.
Fletcher Morgan, TDG’s CEO, commented: “Our proposed acquisition of Anyox Copper marks an
important milestone as TDG continues to evolve as a copper -gold exploration company and
positions us as a leading tenure holder in the previously prolific Anyox mining district. We also
welcome Paul Geddes to the TDG team. Paul’s expanded role for TDG will focus on ensuring
operational excellence, as well as the continued growth of our platform as a regional consolidator.
We are also pleased with the ongoing support from our strategic investor, Skeena, as they intend to
invest $4M into TDG in connection with this Transaction.”
Paul Geddes, Anyox’s CEO, commented: “Combining Anyox and TDG provides potential for multiple,
impactful discoveries in two mining districts in British Columbia. I look forward to combining the
approach and expertise that has helped make Skeena a success with TDG’s technical experience
and bringing that combination to both TDG’s Greater Shasta-Newberry project, located adjacent to
the Freeport-Amarc AuRORA 1 gold-rich copper porphyry discovery , and the Anyox project. Anyox

offers rediscovery and new discovery potential, albeit at an earlier stage, though with a clear
roadmap for advancement.”
Figure 1 – Map of North British Columbia: Toodoggone and Golden Triangle Districts.
Steven Kramar TDG’s Vice President Exploration, commented: “ TDG's immediate priority remains
Greater Shasta-Newberry – our exploration camp is now open, and the technical team is enroute to
site to begin the 2025 exploration season. On closing, TDG’s expanded treasury would mean that we
have the opportunity to resume gold-silver epithermal exploration at Shasta and Mets in parallel with
our well-funded copper-gold porphyry exploration. Work at Anyox can take place at different times
of the year, giving us an extended exploration season across two prime mining districts.”

TDG Board Changes
Effective June 16, 2025, Mr. Michael Kosowan, a current director and greater than 10% owner of TDG,
has assumed the role of Chair of the Board of Directors, succeeding Mr. Stephen Quin. Mr. Quin will
continue as a director of the Company and to lead TDG’s Technical Advisory Group. Incoming Chair,
Michael Kosowan, commented: “ We would like to t hank Stephen for successfully guiding TDG
through to this period of transformational change. My role is to build on the current momentum and
continue to support the growth of the TDG platform to become a leading copper-gold exploration
company in Canada.”
Proposed Share Consolidation
The TDG Board also wishes to provide notice to shareholders of its intention to seek shareholder
approval at the Company’s next Annual General Meeting to consolidate the Company’s share capital
on a five for one basis. This is part of TDG’s strategy to increase its appeal to Canadian, US and
overseas investors.
Anyox Copper Project
Anyox represents a unique opportunity to expand TDG’s exploration portfolio. Located in the
southern tip of British Columbia’s renowned ‘Golden Triangle’ (Figure 1), Anyox is host to the former
underground high-grade Hidden Creek copper mine (19 14-1935), and several undeveloped, near
surface historical2 occurrences along a 12 kilometre (“km”) corridor that has tidewater access.
Given the scale of the district, the widespread distribution of surficial occurrences and the historical
production, coupled with a paucity of recent exploration, Anyox represents an accessible district
with both rediscovery and new discovery potential.
Anyox History
The Anyox Project hosts the Hidden Creek past producing mine that represents a subset of base and
precious metal endowed volcanogenic massive sulphide (“ VMS”) deposits known as the ‘ Besshi
Typea,b. The historical underground mine has a rich mining history: from its discovery in 1901, its
subsequent development and operation, until it was decommissioned in 1935 due to the economic
fallout of the Great Depression. Operations ceased due to prevailing metal prices rather than a lack
of additional mineralization. Historical records2 indicate that, over its 21-year mine life (1914-1935),
the mine produced ~750 million pounds (“Mlbs”) of copper to a maximum depth of ~300 metres and
operators never deliberately recovered the associated potential precious and base metal by -
products (zinc, lead, gold, silver, cobalt).
Terms of the Amalgamation Agreement
Under the terms of the Amalgamation Agreement, Anyox will amalgamate with Subco, and the
Company will acquire all of the outstanding Class A common shares of Anyox (each, an “ Anyox
Share”) in exchange for common shares in the capital of the Company (the “ Consideration
Shares”) on a share exchange ratio that will result in upon completion of the Transaction, Anyox
shareholders holding 20% of the outstanding common shares of the Company (the “TDG Shares”).
The deemed price of each Consideration Share is $0.60.
The Amalgamation Agreement provides that the Acquisition is subject to several conditions
including, among other things completion of the Concurrent Financing, a vote of the shareholders of

Anyox, and receipt of all regulatory approvals, including TSX Venture Exchange (“ Exchange”)
approval.
Concurrent Financing
The Concurrent Financing will consist of the issuance of a combination of:
• 15,000,000 non-flow-through common shares of the Company (“ NFT Shares”) at price of
$0.60 per NFT Share;
• 11,700,000 non-critical minerals charity flow -through common shares of the Company
(“Non-Critical CFT Shares”) at a price of $0.84 per Non-Critical CFT Share; and
• 6,700,000 critical minerals charity flow-through common shares of the Company (“ Critical
CFT Shares”, together with the NFT Shares and the Non-Critical CFT Shares, the “Financing
Securities”) at a price of $0.93 per Critical CFT Shares.
Skeena intends to subscribe to 6,666,667 common shares of TDG at $0.60 for gross proceeds of
$4,000,000, which will increase pro-forma ownership to 29,666,667 common shares, or 11 % of the
Company.
The Financing Securities will be offered by way of private placement exemptions in all the provinces
of Canada (except Quebec) , the United States and other offshore jurisdictions as may be agreed
between the Company and the Underwriters.
The Company has granted the Underwriters an option, exercisable at the applicable offering price up
to 48 hours prior to the closing of the Concurrent Financing, to purchase additional Financing
Securities representing up to 15% of the Financing Securities issued in connection with the
Concurrent Financing. In consideration for the services rendered by the Underwriters in connection
with the Concurrent Financing, the Company has agreed to pay to the Underwriters on closing a cash
commission equal to 6% of the gross proceeds from the Concurrent Financing.
The Company plans to use the proceeds of the Concurrent Financing as follows:
• an amount equal to the gross proceeds from the sale of the Non-Critical CFT Shares will be used
by the Company to incur eligible “Canadian exploration expenses” that qualify as “flow-through
mining expenditures” as such terms are defined under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “ Tax
Act”) related to the Company’s mineral properties in British Columbia;
• an amount equal to the gross proceeds from the sale of the Critical CFT Shares will be used by
the Company to incur “Canadian critical minerals exploration expenses” that qualify as “critical
mineral flow-through mining expenditures” as such terms are defined under the Tax Act related
to the Company’s mineral properties in British Columbia; and
• the net proceeds from the sale of the NFT Shares will be used by the Company for: (i) continued
exploration on TDG’s mineral properties in British Columbia, with a principal focus on the
Greater Shasta-Newberry project and Baker Complex, (ii) exploration of the Anyox Property, (iii)
costs of completing the Acquisition, and (iv) general working capital.
• The current intended exploration expenditure allocation among the projects from the Concurrent
Financing will be:
o ~C$8 million in 2025 on Greater Shasta-Newberry and the ~12 km structural corridor
surrounding to include geophysics, geochemistry and detailed geological mapping
5

plus diamond drilling initially at the AuWEST target on the boundary with AuRORA 1;
with follow-up activities also planned at TDG’s epithermal gold-silver projects.
o ~C$5 million on the Anyox project before the end of 2025 including geophysics to help
define initial drill targets for drill testing; and leading to a proposed second phase of
drilling for an additional ~C$5 million in 2026.
The Consideration Shares and Financing S ecurities issued in connection with the Concurrent
Financing will be subject to a four-month and one day hold period from the date of issuance thereof.
The Acquisition and the Concurrent Financing are expected to close concurrently, and are cross-
conditional upon one-another. The Transaction remains subject to certain conditions including, but
not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and other approvals including the approval of
the Exchange.

Notes
1Adjacent Properties: The Company has no interest in, or rights to, any of the adjacent properties mentioned, and
exploration results on adjacent properties are not necessarily indicative of mineralization on the Company’s properties. Any
references to exploration results on adjacent properties are provided for information only and do not imply any certainty of
achieving similar results on the Company’s properties.
2Historical Data: This news release includes historical information that has been reviewed by TDG’s and/or Anyox’s
qualified person (QP). TDG’s and/or Anyox’s review of the historical records and information reasonably substantiate the
validity of the information presented in this presentation. TDG encourages readers to exercise appropriate caution when
evaluating these data and/or results.
3Third-Party Mineral Projects: These deposits are cited solely for geological context. The Company cautions that these
properties are not adjacent to, nor does the Company have any interest in or control over them. Although certain geological
features may be similar, there is no assurance that mineralization comparable to these deposits will be discovered on the
