Trans Canada Gold Announces Plans for Exploration and Drilling on its Harrison Lake Gold
Project, lays out detailed 2026 Drilling Program targeting Gold
____________________________________________________________________________________
VANCOUVER, B.C. – Trans Canada Gold Corp . (TSX-V: TTG, OTCQB -TTGXF) (“Trans Canada ” or the
“Company”), is pleased to provide a corporate update and announce its Spring 2026 drilling plans on the
Harrison Lake Gold Project. The project is demonstrating the same characteristics as the Snowline Gold
deposit situated in the Tintina Gold Belt in the Canadian, Yukon.
2026 EXPLORATION AND GOLD DRILLING STRATEGY
Harrison Lake Gold Project in an advanced exploration and development setting, fully permitted
targeting identified gold zones , increasing its gold resource. Detailed drilling planning is currently
underway on the Harrison Lake Gold Project. The Company is well positioned to capture and to capitalize
on the forecasted ascending gold prices.
• Phase 1-Drilling – 6-hole program targeting the highest-grade gold zone around intercept DDH-
84-52: 102 meters grading 3.54 g/t gold.
• Phase 2 Drilling – 8-Hole drilling program targeting mul tiple high grade gold zones. DDH 88-76
which intersected 7.0 meters averaging 21.4 g/t and DDH 88-121 which intersected 9.0 meters
averaging 13.5 g/t, are priority follow-ups.
The Company currently has a non -compliant historical gold resource of 220,000 ounces of gold at the
Harrison Lake Gold Project . These historic estimates are disclosed sole ly for context. The historic
estimates do not conform to current NI 43- 101 standards, are not classified as current mineral resources
or mineral reserves, and should not be relied upon. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to
classify the historic estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.

Portal Zone
The total amount of drilling to 1989 on the Portal Stock was 6,978 meters (22,895 feet) in 50 drill holes.
Additional diamond drilling by Bema during the fall of 1988 concentrated on the eastern portion of the
stock (east of 11040 E) which had produced the best gold mineralization intercepts to date.
Similar Probable and Possible categories were calculated, as for the Jenner Zone, with “probable
reserves” defined by projection of a known drill intercept up to 15 meters outward and “possible
reserves” defined by projection of the probable block boundaries an additional 30 meters. The resource
parameters were identical to those used in the Jenner study.

2026 EXPLORATION OBJECTIVES
• The proposed 2026 drill program is comprised of 2 -Phases of diamond drilling using large
diameter NTW (2”+)drilling core.
• Conduct systematic drilling along a fence in a known higher grade gold zone to demonstrate the
use of metallic screen gold assaying to potentially establish higher gold grades. Recent work has
demonstrated that historic gold assays may be understated by as much as 10- 40% on the project.
• Update the existing geological database to modern GIS standards
• Identify additional gold drill targets over the 7.5 Kilometer trend in the Harrison Lake Corridor of
Gold
Tim Coupland, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “We are extremely pleased to laying
out our detailed drilling plans for a 14-hole drill campaign targeting previously known areas of high-grade
gold mineralization. The Harrison Lake Gold Project represents a high potential gold project with a
historical gold resource and high-quality database of exploration and drilling data. Trans Canada Gold is
strategically positioned to expand its historic gold resource, potentially increasing its gold grade to bring
these results to its existing shareholders and new investors. The Company will embark on a program to
accelerate investor awareness and branding of our unique gold investment opportunity, n this precious
metal super-cycle”
HARRISON LAKE GOLD DISTRICT SCALE GOLD PROJECT- GOLD AND EXPLORATION HIGHLIGHTS
The Harrison Lake Gold Project contains a 7-kilometre-long ridge with diorite/ quartz bearing extensive
intrusive related gold mineralization , situated near Harrison Lake, British Columbia. Historical drilling
results confirm the presence of significant gold mineralization.
• The Harrison Lake Mineral claims ( 5,025 ha or 7475 acre) are fully road accessible from the
TransCanada Highway and Highway 7 in southwestern British Columbia, with numerous
4
secondary logging roads and related power and rail service.
• The property c overs a 7-kilometre strike length of the gold rich Harrison Lake Structural Zone ,
with stockwork type gold mineralization within diorite intrusions (Jenner and Portal Zones)
including DDH-84-52: 102 meters of 3.54 g/t gold.
• Jenner and Portal Zones include DDH 88-76 which intersected 7.0 meters averaging 21.4 g/t and
DDH 88-121 which intersected 9.0 meters averaging 13.5 g/t. (Note: the intercept in DDH 88 -
121 is more than 50 meters vertically below the historic resource estimate and requires
additional drilling).
• A corridor of similar diorite intrusions and “gold in soil” anomalies that extend s for more than
two kilometers to the south of the original discovery. Follow up drilling of some of these
anomalies identified more diorite hosted stockwork type mineralization including DDH 88-130
which tested the Hill Zone and reportedly returned 30 meters averaging 3.0 g/t.
• The style of mineralization is similar to the gold deposits of the Tintina Gold Belt that straddles
the Yukon – Alaska border and it has also been recognized that the mineralized diorite intrusions
are localized along a regionally extensive shear zone adjacent to a large diorite batholith.
Snowline Gold’ s recent discovery of the Valley deposit clearly demonstrates the potential of
these types of occurrences.
• Over $10.0 Million dollars in previous exploration drilling expenditures.
• The Company has assembled a strong Technical Team in place experienced in underground
exploration drilling for gold.
• Drilling Permits have been approved and granted by the Province of British Columbia for 2026-
2027.
