VANCOUVER, B.C. – Trans Canada Gold Corp. (TSX-V: TTG) (“Trans Canada” or the “Company”) is pleased

to announce that it has now received permit approval for Planned Mineral Exploration Work from the

Government of Newfoundland and Labrador , for Trans Canada Gold’s Crippleback Lake Gold property

situated in the “Corridor of Gold ”, in Central Newfoundland. The newly issued exploration permit now

grants permission to follow up on gold targets recently identified by Sokomon Minerals (TSXV-SIC), which

will quickly bring the project to the drill ready stage . The exploration permit allows for prospecting,

geochemical sampling, airborne geophysics and ground geophysics. In addition to Exploration permitting,

drilling permits were recently submitted on June 17, 2021 for diamond drilling and the use of heavy

equipment, once gold targets have been fully defined on the property in the coming months . T he

Company is positioned to move quickly, and to advance the gold potential of this centrally positioned

gold property, which lies directly over the Cape Ray Faulting system, the same faulting system, which also

hosts the Marathon Valentine Lake Gold deposit and the Sokomon Minerals Moosehead 100% wholly-

owned Gold discovery located in Central Newfoundland’s Corridor of Gold.

Commented Tim Coupland, “ We are p ermitting and advancing the Crippleback Gold project in the

Corridor of Gold, in central Newfoundland and all of our exploration activities are moving rapidly. With

the welcome news of our Newfoundland Exploration Permits being granted, we are now moving quickly,

and are just waiting for our formal drilling application approvals for the Crippleback Lake Gold block of

gold claims in Central Newfoundland. Our seasoned Technical Advisory Team of highly experienced gold

experts are extremely excited about the 2021 summer exploration season identifying and drilling the

target gold zones on this strategically located property optioned from Sokoman Minerals . This is a

remarkable advanced gold exploration opportunity for the Company, who will now be able to start the

summer 2021 exploration and drilling season and collaborate actively with the Sokomon Minerals

geological team. We anticipate that the summer season will generate additional gold targets for the

project. Both geological teams are now able now share years of seasoned mining and drilling knowledge,

while completing and advancing the Crippleback Gold Project, performing exploration and drilling

between Marathon Gold’s Valentine Lake gold deposit and shear zone and Sokoman’s 100% w holly

owned Moosehead Gold discovery”.

The Crippleback Lake Gold Project covers the northeastern extension of the regional scale Valentine Lake

2

fault/Shear zone and is situated in the same geological units that host high grade gold mineralization at

Marathon’s Gold’s Valentine Lake gold deposit. The property is situated in the gold prolific and rapidly

emerging Corridor of gold in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt, and is ideally situated on trend with

Sokoman’s flagship Moosehead High -Grade Gold discovery which is now in the midst of Phase 6 of a

50,000-metre (Phase 6) drill program. The Crippleback Lake Gold property is located near the Trans-

Canada highway in north-central Newfoundland, is easily accessible by a network of secondary logging

roads and is only a short drive from assaying and diamond drilling services in Springdale, Newfoundland.

CRIPPLEBACK LAKE GOLD PROJECT, NEWFOUNDLAND – HIGHLIGHTS:

• 121 mineral claims (3025 ha or 7475 acre) fully road accessible from the TransCanada Highway

with numerous secondary logging roads internal to the claims.

• Covers a 13 -kilometre strike length of the gold rich Valentine Lake Structural Zone midway

between Marathon Gold’s Valentine Lake Gold Deposit and Sokoman Minerals 100% wholly -

owned high-grade gold Moosehead Discovery.

• Robust Gold in lake sediment and till samples, with multiple till samples exhibiting delicate

(proximal to source) gold grains as well as angular float samples assaying up to 1.7 g/t gold

• All previous exploration efforts focused on base metals

• Exploration Permits have been approved by the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador

• Drilling Permits have been submitted on June 17, 2021. Approval pending.

SUMMARY TERMS OF AGREEMENT

Trans Canada can acquire 100% of Crippleback Lake by issuing 1,250,000 common shares of Trans

Canada Gold, cash and work commitments totalling $600,000 over a 4-year period. Sokoman will retain

The Trans-Canada Gold Property consists of 741 non- surveyed contiguous mineral cell claims totaling

14,880 hectares located within the Kenora Mining Division of Ontario. The property is located within

the Wabigoon Greenstone Belt, which also contains the Thunder Lake Gold deposit and the Goldlund

Gold Deposit. The Property contains a number of large shear zones containing quartz carbonate veins,

pyrite and arsenopyrite, underlain by mafic volcanics with felsic volcanics in the south. There is a large

regional scale iron carbonate alteration within the property, which is considered to be similar to that of

the Red Lake Mining Camp. The regional scale Carbonate alteration within the property associated with

shear zones within iron -tholeiite are prime targe ts for gold exploration. The property has excellent

access, with the Trans-Canada highway bisecting multiple high priority targets in a north-south direction,

as well as close proximity to the large community of Dryden, Ontario. The property has access t o first

class infrastructure, with close proximity to a number of rail corridors and power lines. A number of gold

exploration targets have been identified within the property based on their association with regional

alteration, known gold showings, shear zones, complex patterns and offsets in the regional magnetic

map as well as spatial association with regional structures that has the potential to be well endowed

with gold mineralization.
