WHITE ROCK - TDG Gold Corp (TSXV:TDG) (the 'Company' or 'TDG') is pleased to report the first batch of assay results from the historical core relogging and resampling program undertaken at its Shasta gold-silver deposit, located in the Toodoggone, north-central B.C.

TDG relogged, resampled and assayed 26 diamond drillholes, totalling 2,900m of core, dating from 2007 and 2010, all drilled within the footprint of the existing Shasta Mineral Resource Estimate ('MRE1'). No historical assay results for the 2007 series drillholes were available and no collar locations for the 2010 series drillholes were previously verified. The collar locations have now been verified and the new assay data supports inclusion of these higher grade, near surface intercepts in a future MRE1.

Highlights include gold ('Au') and 57 g/t silver ('Ag') [1.75 g/t gold equivalent ('AuEq'2)] from 3.0 m depth and ending in mineralization, Including 43.1 m grading 1.27 g/t Au and 67 g/t Ag [2.11 g/t AuEq2] from 20.0 m depth SH07-04: 65.0 m grading 0.64 g/t Au and 18 g/t Ag [0.87 g/t AuEq2] from 78.0 m depth

Including 25.7 m grading 1.52 g/t Au and 40 g/t Ag [2.02 g/t AuEq2] from 78.0 m depth

SH07-10: : 53.0 m grading 1.08 g/t Au and 33 g/t Ag [1.49 g/t AuEq2] from 66.0 m depth

Including 25.3 m grading 1.93 g/t Au and 62 g/t Ag [2.71 g/t AuEq2] from 72.0 m depth

SH07-14: : 63.7 m grading 0.87 g/t Au and 42 g/t Ag [1.40 g/t AuEq2] from 43.8 m depth

Including 28.5 m grading 1.56 g/t Au and 86 g/t Ag [2.63 g/t AuEq2] from 45.5 m depth

Steven Kramar, TDG's VP Exploration, commented: 'Historical sampling of core was focused on narrow zones of higher-grade mineralization. TDG's systematic recovery of this legacy core, followed by relogging, resampling and assaying of the entire mineralized envelope, has yielded meaningful rewards, demonstrating consistent wide zones of gold-silver mineralization that encompass notable intercepts with significantly higher grades. With these data, including more detailed logging and geochemistry, we can better define controls on mineralization and use that knowledge to extrapolate potential extensions to the current MRE1. We will be reviewing these new assay results to determine how they might influence the current Shasta MRE1.'

2007 Series Drilling

The 2007 diamond drilling was mostly located along the western side of the Shasta deposit, in the Shasta zone. Historically, core was cut and sent for analysis, but the legacy data (assays and drill logs) were never located by TDG. TDG has now successfully located and validated the 2007 series drill collars and subsequently relogged, resampled and sent all recoverable drillcore for analysis of the precious metal content and a full suite of multi-element geochemistry. These drillholes add additional multi-element data TDG's existing database, and the precious metal assay results may positively impact the current Shasta MRE1 by improving confidence between existing drillholes and adding higher grades in areas with sparse drilling.

2010 Series Drilling

The 2010 series of diamond drilling was focused within the Cayley-Rainer zone. This zone has demonstrated potential to host bonanza grades, with SH21-022 intersecting 1.5 m grading 50.2 g/t Au and 4,871 g/t Ag [111 g/t AuEq1] from 113.5 m depth . Previously, the 2010 series drilling also suffered from poor collar validation and only two drillholes were sufficiently accurately recorded to support inclusion within the 2023 MRE1 calculation. As with the 2007 drillholes, the remaining 2010 drill collars have since been validated, and therefore this data may now be used in a potential MRE1 update. Additionally, these new assays and geochemical data could provide clues on vectoring between the Cayley-Rainer zone and the JM zone (400 m distance). This is an area where drill and historical assay density is currently the lowest at Shasta and the new information could potentially expand the bonanza grade mineralization intercepted in 2021.

1980s Series Drilling

In 2023, TDG also undertook a broader relogging, resampling and assaying program to target (a) the satellite deposits within the Greater Shasta target area and (b) potential extensions to the mineralization at the Shasta deposit. The drillcore from the Cody Lee target area5 and the Fisher target area5 were recovered and cores from 7 and 6 holes, respectively, were relogged, resampled and assayed in entirety; results are pending. Around the main Shasta deposit, drillcore with the potential to assist in upgrading the MRE1 and provide valuable multi-element data were also relogged and resampled from the JM east, Shasta north and Shasta Creek areas, all within the MRE1 area. These samples are being processed through the assay lab and results will be published in due course.

QA/QC

Samples for the Shasta 2023 relogging, resampling and assay program were handled via rigorous chain of custody, through sample collection, processing, and delivery to the ALS Global laboratory in either North Vancouver or Kamloops, B.C. The drillcore was logged, photographed, and sampled at TDG's Baker Mine site and processed by geologists and technicians. The drillcore selected for sampling was either: (i) already split from previous sampling (mechanized core splitter or rarely diamond saw) and sample intervals were utilized (where applicable) to follow along historical sampling intervals or (ii) intervals with no previous sampling were split using mechanical splitter. The drillcore selected for sampling was and then placed in zip-tied polyurethane bags, then in security-sealed rice bags before being delivered directly by TDG staff from the Baker Mine site, to Bandstra Transportation Systems in Prince George, ultimately to the ALS Global facility in North Vancouver or Kamloops, B.C. Samples were prepared and analyzed following procedures: PREP-31BN for sample preparation, AU-AA25 for Au and ME-MS61 for Ag and trace elements. Overlimit concentrations of precious or base metals were analyzed (where applicable) by AU-GRA22, AG-GRA21 and/or ME-OG62 for Au, Ag and base metals, respectively. Information about methodology can be found on the ALS Global website, in the analytical guide (here).

QAQC is maintained internally at the lab through rigorous use of internal certified reference materials ('CRMs'), blanks, and duplicates. An additional QAQC program was administered by TDG through the verification of lab results via use of CRMs and blank (unmineralized) samples that were blindly inserted into the sample batch. Duplicates (pulp) were selected approximately every 20 samples by internal lab procedures. If a QAQC sample returns an unacceptable value an investigation into the results is triggered and when deemed necessary, the samples that were tested in the batch with the failed QAQC sample are re-tested.

Table 2 presents the particulars for the drillholes in this news release. Collar locations were derived from a previous operators database, converted into UTM UPS NAD83 Zone: 9N coordinate format and validated (where practical and/or possible) using high accuracy Differential Global Positioning System ('DGPS') system.
