TDG GOLD DEFINES DRILL TARGETS WITHIN POTENTIAL SOUTHERN EXTENSION AT METS
White Rock, British Columbia, January 15, 2024. TDG Gold Corp. (TSXV: TDG) (the “Company” or “TDG”)
is pleased to provide a further targeting update from ongoing analysis and interpretation of geophysical
data from TDG’s 100% owned Mets mining lease located in the Toodoggone District of north-central B.C.
Within this news release are the second set of images from TDG’s 2023 high -resolution geophysical
program conducted at Mets. The high -grade mineralization within the A -Zone appears to be coincident
with a magnetic susceptibility low ( Figure 1a) and a conductive feature ( Figure 1b)(news release Jan 08,
2024). These geophysical features are interpreted to extend for at least ~680 metres (“m”) to the south
of the Mets A-Zone, following a distinctive topographic linear which remains open to the south.

voxel model (left) and b) VLF-EM 24.8 kHz, Karous-Hjelt filtered voxel model (right).
Steven Kramar, TDG’s VP Exploration, commented: “ The seven historical diamond drillholes to the south
of the Mets A-Zone appear to have been situated too far back from the geophysical anomalies picked up
by our 2023 magnetics/VLF-EM survey. The fact that these historical holes still showed gold mineralization,
including up to 8.1 g/t over 1.0 metre2,3, is encouraging. The opportunity at Mets therefore is to evaluate
the potential extensions of the thicker, high- grade gold from the A- Zone by targeting the ge ophysical
anomalies, stepping out sequentially to both the north and south.”
In combination, the Mets A-Zone with its potential northern and southern extensions 1, form anomalous
geophysical features that appear to extend for ~1,480 m (Figure 2), of which only the A -Zone has been
intensively drilled historically (and only to shallow depths); with confirmation drilling successfully
completed by TDG in 2023 (news releases Sept 07, 2023, Sept 11, 2023, Nov 28, 2023 and Dec 04, 2023).

POTENTIAL SOUTHERN EXTENSION1
The potential southern extension1 appears geophysically to be on strike and continuous south of the A-
Zone, displaying a Very Low Frequency Electromagnetic (“VLF -EM”) response utilizing the 24.8 kHz
frequency with Karous-Hjelt (“KH”) filter (Figure 3) and associated magnetic susceptibility low (Figure 4).
The VLF-EM model presents a steep dipping conductive zone with increasing charge density developing
at depth coincident with a developing magnetic susceptibility ‘deep low’. These coincident features have
similar characteristics to the A-Zone where higher-grade gold (“Au”) mineralization was intercepted.
Historical drilling on the edges of these features intersected broad, low- grade Au mineralization in all
seven drillholes 2,3. The historical drilling was likely set back too far west, and the drill strings were
terminated too short to test the anomalies. The intersection of appreciable Au mineralization still suggests
these holes are likely in the vicinity of a mineralized system with the potential for higher grades.

Qualified Person
The technical content of this news release has been reviewed and approved Steven Kramar, MSc., P.Geo.,
Vice President, Exploration for TDG Gold Corp., a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-
101.
1Mineral Exploration/Exploration Target Area(s) : TDG is a mineral exploration focused company and the Company’s Projects
are in the mineral exploration stage only. The degree of risk increases substantially where an issuer’s properties are in the mineral
exploration stage as opposed to the development or operational stage. Exploration targets and/or Exploration zones and/or
Exploration areas are speculative and there is no certainty that any future work or evaluation will lead to the definition of a
mineral resource.
2Historical Data: This news release includes historical information that has been reviewed by TDG’s qualified person (QP). TDG’s
review of the historical records and information reasonably substantiate the validity of the information presented in this ne ws
release; however, TDG cannot directly verify the accuracy of the historical data, including (but not limited to) the procedures used
for sample collection and analysis. Therefore, any conclusions or interpretations borne from use of this data should be considered
too speculative to suggest that additional exploration will result in mineral resource delineation. TDG encourages readers to
exercise appropriate caution when evaluating these data and/or results.
3Historical Drillcore Sampling & Assay Methodology : Historical drillcore was geologically logged with lithologies identified and
notable geological features recorded. Historical drillcore was split in half (and in rare cases sawn in half) along sample intervals
(lithology and mineralization dependant) generally less than 3 m. Chemical analysis was performed dominantly for precious metal
analysis (Au and Ag), and infrequently for base metals (Pb, Zn, Cu), and rarely for major elements and trace elements. Historically,
different commercial laboratories were utilized in addition to an assay lab at Baker Mine Site. These lab facilities may or may not
have had accreditation and in all cases accreditation (if applicable) pre-dated current ISO standards. Over that period, a variety of
digestion and assay methods were used, including atomic absorption, fire assay atomic absorption, aqua regia atomic absorption
and aqua regia ICP with varying detection limits. Reference materials (if any) were inserted at the analytical level and thus were
unblind to the facility processing the samples.
4Unassayed Historical Drill Core : Historical drill core intersections, lengths or intervals referenced for re -assay or geological
analysis may not be available or suitable for sampling. Historical drill cores were inherited with the project and TDG provides no
guarantees or warranties that these drill cores are part of the historical inventory, are available and/or have not degraded to a
state that would render them wholly unusable for the purposes of scientific investigation. TDG pro vides no
warranties/guarantees that these historical un-assayed drill cores host precious or base metal mineralization.
About TDG Gold Corp.
TDG is a major mineral tenure holder in the historical Toodoggone Production Corridor of north -central British
Columbia, Canada, with over 23,000 hectares of brownfield and greenfield exploration opportunities under direct
ownership or earn-in agreement. TDG’s flagship projects are the former producing, high-grade gold-silver Shasta and
Baker mines, which produced intermittently between 1981-2012, and the historical high-grade gold Mets developed
prospect, all of which are road accessible, and combined have over 65,000 m of historical drilling. The projects have
been advanced through compilation of historical data, new geological mapping, geochemical and geophysical
surveys and, at Shasta, 13,250 m of modern HQ drill testing of the known mineralization occur rences and their
potential extensions. In May 2023, TDG published an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for Shasta (see TDG news
release May 01, 2023 ) which remains open at depth and along strike. In January 2023, TDG defined a larger
exploration target area adjacent to Shasta (Greater Shasta -Newberry; see TDG news release January 25, 2023 ). In
late 2023, TDG published the first modern drill results from the Mets mining lease (see TDG news releases September
07, 2023, September 11, 2023 , November 28, 2023 and December 04, 2023 ). In 2024, TDG published the first 3D
geophysical images from its 2023 high resolution geophysical survey at Mets (see TDG news release January 08,
2024).
