TDG Gold Intersects 164 m grading
1.04 g/t Au, 0.24% Cu at Aurora West, Toodoggone
Including 1.7 g/t Au, 2 g/t Ag, 0.32% Cu over 67 m
Vancouver, British Columbia, October 15, 2025 – TDG Gold Corp. (TSXV: TDG | OTCQX: TDGGF)
(the “Company” or “TDG”) is pleased to report additional assay results from its fully funded Phase
I exploratory drilling program at the Aurora West target within TDG’s Greater Shasta -Newberry
(“GSN”) project. The ongoing Phase I exploratory program now involves three drill rigs on the
Company’s 100% owned flagship GSN Project in the Toodoggone District of British Columbia.
Additional drilling results will be disclosed in batches of successive drill holes as assays become
available.
Phase I Drilling Highlights:
• TDG25-002: 1.02 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”), 2.0 g/t silver (“Ag”), 0.24% copper (“Cu”)
over 164.0 metres (“m”) including 1.73 g/t Au, 2.6 g/t Ag, 0.32% Cu over 67.0 m
• TDG25-003: 1.13 g/t Au, 2.6 g/t Ag, 0.30% Cu over 60.1 m
• TDG25-005: 0.76 g/t Au, 2.0 g/t Ag, 0.23% Cu over 92.9 m
• TDG25-007: 0.84 g/t Au, 1.1 g/t Ag, 0.33% Cu over 64.0 m
Initial Phase I Drill Holes Begin Expanding Aurora West Mineralization
The Company’s previously reported proof of concept Phase I drill hole TDG25-001 (news release Sept
02, 2025) successfully demonstrated that Amarc/Freeport’s AuRORA1 Cu-Au-Ag Zone extends onto
the Company’s tenure. Hole TDG25-001 delivered an impressive intersection grading 1.23 g/t Au, 1.8
g/t Ag, 0.23% Cu over 240.6 m.
Building upon the results from TDG25-001, recently completed 2025 Phase I drill hole TDG-25-002
intersected 1.02 g/t Au, 2.0 g/t Ag, 0.24% Cu over 164.0 m, including a higher -grade sub-interval
averaging 1.73 g/t Au, 2.6 g/t Ag, 0.32% Cu over 67.0 m , demonstrating that the Aurora West
mineralization extends up dip and south of TDG25-001. This new extension begins at a vertical depth
of 175 metres below surface and remains open to further expansion (Figure 1 & 2).
Fletcher Morgan, CEO of TDG remarks, “These initial, widely spaced and broadly mineralized
intercepts of the Phase I program are suggestive of a larger mineralized system than was initially
anticipated. Our success thus far in the 2025 program has warranted the addition of a third drill rig to
hasten the exploration of Aurora West. Given our solid treasury, and fully winterized camp , we are
also contemplating extending the Phase I drilling program through the winter months and into the
2026 exploration season. The longer Program will accelerate our development of this constantly
evolving discovery and may provide year-round news flow.”
Aurora West Outlined Over 450 Metres Down Dip
Additionally, two new intercepts of Cu-Au-Ag mineralization grading 0.76 g/t Au, 2.0 g/t Ag, 0.23% Cu
over 92.9 metres and 0.95 g/t Au, 2.5 g/t Ag, 0.20% Cu over 53. 2 m have been defined by drill hole
TDG25-005, which has also extended the AuWest discovery north and down dip of TDG25 -001
(Figure 2).The two intersections in TDG25-005 are separate monzonite porphyry intrusive dikes.
Further downdip and to the north, at a vertical depth of 440 metres below surface, Phase I drill hole
TDG25-007 extended the Aurora West Zone with multiple intersections: 0.84 g/t Au, 1.1 g/t Ag, 0.33%
Cu over 64.0 m, 0.48 g/t Au, 0.8 g/t Ag, 0.18% Cu over 27.0 m, 0.87 g/t Au, 1.5 g/t Ag, 0.23% Cu over
19.0 m and 0.59 g/t Au, 1.8 g/t Ag, 0.25% Cu over 19.0 metres.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control Protocols
Samples for the GSN 2025 drill program followed chain of custody between collection, processing
and delivery to a Bureau Veritas (“BV”) laboratory in Vancouver, B.C. The drill cores were delivered to
the core shack at TDG’s Baker Mine site, and processed b y geologists who inserted certified
reference materials, blanks and duplicates (pulp and coarse) into the sampling sequence at regular
intervals. The 2025 drill core was cut in half (1/2 HQ core or NQ core ) and placed in zip -tied
polyurethane bags, then in security-sealed rice bags before being delivered directly from the Baker
Mine site, to Bandstra Transportation Systems in Prince George, B.C., and ultimately to the BV
laboratory in Vancouver, B.C. Samples were prepared and analyzed following procedures
summarized in Table 3, where information about methodology can be found on the BV website, in
the analytical guide (here).

Quality assurance and control (“QA/QC”) is maintained internally at the lab through rigorous use of
internal certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates. An additional QA /QC program is
underway by TDG Gold through the use of certified reference materials (“CRMs”), duplicate samples
and blank samples that were blindly inserted into the sample batch. If a QA /QC sample returns an
unacceptable value an investigation into the results is triggered and when deemed necessary, the
samples that were analyzed in the batch with the failed QA/QC sample are re-analyzed.

TDG’s other Toodoggone projects within the property package include the former producing, gold -
silver Shasta and gold -silver-copper 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. These projects have been advanced
through compilation of historical data, new geological mapping, geochemical and geophysical
surveys and, at Shasta, 13,250 m of moder n HQ drill testing of the known mineralization
occurrences and their potential extensions. In 2025, TDG published an updated Mineral Resource
Estimate for Shasta (news release Jan 08, 2025), which remains open at depth and along strike.
In July 2025, TDG closed the acquisition of Anyox Copper Ltd. (“Anyox”, news release July 14, 2025)
which holds a combination of crown grants (100% owned and optioned) and mineral claims totaling
over 10,000 hectares including the former producing Hidden Creek copper- gold mine – all located
within the Anyox peninsula at the southern tip of BC’s Golden Triangle. Anyox gives TDG access to a
volcanogenic massive sulphide horizon within a significant past- producing district with copper -
gold-lead-zinc-silver potential.
TDG is well-funded with the priority exploration focus in 2025 to test for potential extensions of
AuRORA1-style mineralization onto TDG’s 100%-owned GSN project.
