TDG Gold Extends IP Anomaly Across Boundary from Aurora(1) Discovery and Identifies a Nearby New Geophysical Anomaly, Drilling About to Commence
TDG Gold Corp (OTCQX:TDGGF) has identified a significant IP anomaly ("AuWEST") that appears to extend from Freeport-Amarc's AuRORA1 gold-rich copper porphyry discovery onto TDG's Greater Shasta-Newberry project in British Columbia. The company detected a chargeability anomaly exceeding 23 mV/V near surface, extending to a depth of ~350m, with a north-south extent of ~320m at the property boundary.
A Phase I drilling program is set to commence on July 17, 2025, targeting the potential mineralized western extensions of AuRORA1. The company has also identified a second chargeability anomaly with similar characteristics underlying the AuWEST target. TDG is fully funded for its 2025 exploration program and continues geological studies to identify new targets.
TDG Gold Corp (OTCQX:TDGGF) ha individuato una significativa anomalia IP denominata "AuWEST", che sembra estendersi dalla scoperta aurifera ricca di rame porfirico AuRORA1 di Freeport-Amarc fino al progetto Greater Shasta-Newberry di TDG in British Columbia. L'azienda ha rilevato un'anomalia di carica superiore a 23 mV/V vicino alla superficie, che si estende fino a una profondità di circa 350 m, con un'estensione nord-sud di circa 320 m al confine della proprietà.
Un programma di perforazione Fase I inizierà il 17 luglio 2025, con l'obiettivo di esplorare le potenziali estensioni mineralizzate occidentali di AuRORA1. Inoltre, l'azienda ha identificato una seconda anomalia di carica con caratteristiche simili sotto il target AuWEST. TDG dispone di finanziamenti completi per il programma di esplorazione 2025 e prosegue gli studi geologici per individuare nuovi obiettivi.

WHITE ROCK, BC / ACCESS Newswire / July 16, 2025 / TDG Gold Corp. (TSXV:TDG)(OTCQX:TDGGF) (the "Company" or "TDG") is pleased to provide an update on the recently initiated reconnaissance and characterization Induced Polarization ("IP") geophysical survey to the west of Freeport McMoran-Amarc Resources' ("Freeport-Amarc") AuRORA1 gold-rich copper porphyry discovery. AuRORA1 lies immediately adjacent to the Company's
HIGHLIGHTS:
IP anomaly ("AuWEST") identified that is contiguous to and may be indicative of an extension of Freeport-Amarc's AuRORA1 mineralization;
Phase I drilling program anticipated to begin July 17, 2025, at TDG's AuWEST;
Mapping, soil sampling, and other geological studies are underway with the objective of identifying new targets or to better define existing ones;
TDG is fully funded to conduct an extensive exploration program in 2025.

2025 Induced Polarization Reconnaissance and Characterization Survey
IP geophysical surveys are known to be an effective technique in identifying disseminated- and stockwork-style sulphides that are often associated with porphyry copper-gold-silver ("Cu-Au-Ag") mineralization, manifesting as a chargeability anomaly. The GSN project has never been surveyed with IP methods and, to date, the data from three wide-spaced lines completed adjacent to, and to the west of, AuRORA1 have been deemed fit for purpose and utilized for targeting at AuWEST, a potential extension to the AuRORA1 mineralization. The first line is located ~75 metres ("m") from the Freeport-Amarc boundary with 250 m spacing between the remaining lines (Figure 1). The purpose of this work was to better understand the geophysical signature of the AuRORA1 Cu-Au-Ag mineralization, to test for possible extensions of AuRORA1 onto TDG's mineral tenure, and provide a model for drill targeting potential AuRORA1 analogues along the 12 kilometre ("km") structural corridor identified on TDG's mineral claims (news release Mar 03, 2025).
A chargeability anomaly in excess of ~23 millivolts per volt ("mV/V") on strike and apparently contiguous with the AuRORA1 mineralization has been identified near surface, and extending to a vertical depth of ~350 m. At surface along the property boundary, the anomaly has a north-south extent of ~320 m and has an apparent plunge to the west. Additional lines are necessary to determine true strike length of the anomaly. This anomaly may represent a potential extension to the AuRORA1-style mineralization at TDG's AuWEST target (news release May 07, 2025) and southwest within GSN (Figure 2). Given the nearby AuRORA1 mineralization, this anomaly clearly merits drill testing. Further, a second chargeability anomaly has been identified with a similar signature, exceeding 23 mV/V, underlying the IP anomaly associated with AuWEST (Figure 2).
Data from additional infill and reconnaissance IP lines are currently being processed and interpreted. Surveyed areas that generate similar anomalous geophysical responses to that associated with AuRORA1 will be followed up with infill surveys to provide enhanced detail prior to drilling.

Drill Mobilized to Project Site
Drill crews and equipment for a helicopter-supported drill program have begun mobilizing to the project site. Initial drill holes will test for potential mineralized western extensions of the AuRORA1 mineralization, on to TDG's mineral claims, guided by the new geophysical data set. Drilling is expected to begin shortly after July 17, 2025.

About TDG Gold Corp.
TDG is a major mineral tenure holder in the Toodoggone District of north-central British Columbia, Canada, with
In 2023, TDG defined the 5.5 sq.km Greater Shasta-Newberry exploration target area (news release Jan 25, 2023) which is located directly adjacent to the gold-rich copper porphyry AuRORA1 discovery announced by Freeport McMoran Inc. and Amarc Resources Ltd. (news release Jan 17, 2025).
In 2024, TDG identified new copper-gold target areas over an expanded footprint covering ~53 sq.km known as the 'Baker Complex' (news release Feb 28, 2024), including the North Quartz (news release Apr 02, 2024) and Trident (news release Mar 07, 2024) targets.
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 modern 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 (
