triumph gold Corp. (TSXV: TIG) (OTC Pink: TIGCF) (FSE: 8N6) (‘triumph gold’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce the discovery of a new Silver-Gold vein system, now named the Proton Zone, at its 100%-owned Freegold Mountain Project in Yukon, Canada. The discovery lies 1.3 km northeast of the Nucleus Deposit and 2.75 km northwest of the Revenue Deposit.

The Proton Zone was uncovered in fresh bedrock exposed by placer mining at Mechanic Creek in a previously unexplored area. The mineralized zone spans approximately 15 x 15 metres and lies over 300 metres from the nearest historic sampling or drill hole (Figures 1-3). The shear-hosted quartz-sulfide veins share a similar geochemical signature to the nearby Nucleus deposit but are hosted in granodiorite, similar to the Revenue deposit.

Highlights from Proton Zone Sampling (see Table 1):

• Grab sample C959830: 1.68 g/t Au, 8.99 g/t Ag, >10,000 ppm As
• Chip sample C959831 (30 cm): 5.95 g/t Au, 7.17 g/t Ag, >10,000 ppm As

Table 1: Assay Results from the Proton Zone

Other high-grade vein zones have been sampled along Mechanic Creek. The Drone Zone, located 1.3 kilometres south of the Proton Zone, returned up to 450 g/t gold and 19 g/t silver (March 2019). An additional zone 600 meters south of the Proton Zone returned values up to 6.58 g/t gold and 13.6 g/t silver.

These zones all feature gold-silver-copper-arsenic-antimony-bismuth geochemistry and have not been followed up with drilling. Their proximity to the Nucleus and Revenue deposits suggests a potential link to the Revenue porphyry mineralizing event. The Revenue system is similar in style to the Casino deposit, part of the Tintina Gold Belt.

Sample Descriptions:

• C959829: Silicified vein-breccia with up to 10% arsenopyrite
• C959830: Similar to above, about 10 meters away along the same structure
• C959831: Clay-altered, gossanous zone with no visible sulphides, east-trending

triumph gold’s VP of Exploration Jesse Halle comments: ‘Mechanic Creek continues to generate highly prospective exploration targets, demonstrating the significant growth potential of the Revenue and Nucleus deposits. This new zone shows gold-and-silver-dominant geochemistry like the Vest Pocket and Granger zones, the latter being added to the 2020 resource estimate. A new mineralized trend is emerging, and we are excited to see where it leads.’

Nucleus Deposit Overview

The Nucleus deposit hosts epithermal gold-silver-copper mineralization within Paleozoic schists and gneisses, crosscut by quartz-feldspar porphyry dykes and a leucogranite stock. Structural control is related to the Big Creek fault system.

2020 Resource Estimate (at 0.30 g/t AuEq cutoff):

• Indicated: 31 million tonnes grading 0.65 g/t gold, 0.07% copper, and 0.7 g/t silver
• Inferred: 9.4 million tonnes grading 0.56 g/t gold, 0.04% copper, and 0.7 g/t silver

triumph gold’s Principal Geologist, Marty Henning, comments: ‘With rising gold and silver prices, the Nucleus resource is showing strong potential for growth. Mineralization extends below the current $1,500 per ounce gold pit resource, and further drilling along key structural trends could significantly expand the resource.’

The last major exploration program at the Nucleus deposit was conducted in 2021. Figure 1, Table 2 and Table 3 provide details of the program and demonstrate the growth potential of the Nucleus deposit. Drilling completed in 2021 was designed to test mineralization continuity along the four corners of the main and northern satellite pit resource, the Big Creek South Fault, and the newly defined Orbit Zone (New Release May 4, 2022). Drill hole attributes are summarized in Table 1, and gold equivalent (AuEq) composite grades are highlighted in Table 2.

Gold equivalent [AuEq] is used for illustrative purposes to express the combined value of gold, silver, and copper as a percentage of gold. No allowances have been made for recovery losses in a mining scenario.

AuEq is calculated using US$1,750.00 per troy ounce of gold, US$24.00 per troy ounce of silver, and US$4.00 per pound of copper.

AuEq = Au g/t + (Ag g/t X $24.00 / $1750.00) + (Cu% X $4.00 X 22.0462) / ($1750.00 / 31.10)

Sample Preparation and QAQC

Rock samples from the Freegold Mountain Project Proton Zone were submitted to the ALS Geochemistry laboratory in Whitehorse for sample preparation. Sample pulps were shipped directly to ALS Vancouver for analyses.

Rock samples were weighed, dried and crushed to 70% passing 2 millimetres, then riffle-split to obtain a 250-gram sub-sample pulverized to greater than 85% passing 75 microns (PREP-31). A 0.25-gram sample from each pulp was analyzed for multi-element geochemistry using 4-acid (near-total) digestion and induced coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS), giving 48 elements (ME-MS61). A 30-gram sample from each pulp was analyzed for Au using fire assay and atomic absorption spectroscopy (Au-AA23).

Diamond drill holes at the Freegold Mountain Project are drilled using HTW and NTW core sizes (70.92 millimetres and 56.00 millimetres diameter, respectively). Sample preparation is completed at ALS Whitehorse, and sample pulps are shipped to ALS Vancouver for analysis. Samples are dried and crushed to 70% less than 2 millimetres with a 250-gram riffle-split and pulverized to better than 85% passing 75 microns (PREP-31).

A 50-gram sample from the pulp is analyzed for gold using fire assay techniques and atomic absorption spectroscopy with detection limits of 0.005-10 parts per million (‘ppm’) (Au-AA24). Gold over-limit values are re-analyzed using a gravimetric finish with an upper detection limit of 10,000 ppm (Au-GRA22). A 0.25-gram sample from the pulp is analyzed with multi-element geochemistry (ME-ICP61) using a 4-acid near total digestion and induced coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) providing 33 elements.

Sample Quality Assurance/Quality Control (‘QAQC’) measures include unmarked certified reference materials (CRMs), rock blanks, and field duplicates inserted into the sample sequence. These make up 5% of the samples submitted to the lab for holes reported in this release. Additional QAQC checks are ongoing in accordance with 43-101 standards.

Coverage area includes recently announced gold till anomaly plus two more historic gold occurrences on Matagami property largely subject to base metals exploration

Nuvau Minerals Inc. (TSXV: NMC) has just completed a key step on its journey to unlocking the gold potential of the Matagami Property in the Abitibi region of Québec. It has flown a detailed high resolution drone magnetic (‘MAG’) survey over an area north of where a 2023 sonic drilling program discovered a significant gold grain anomaly. Hole PD-23-030s had more than 2,000 gold grains per 10 kg of material, supported by a near-contiguous sample with 295 gold grains.

The MAG survey included areas where two other gold anomalies have been previously identified in Québec’s SIGEOM/EXAMINE database (see Figure 1):

• Daniel-1, which includes a gold value of 6.18 grams per tonne over 1 metre associated with massive sulphide from a diamond drill hole.
• McIvor-SE, which is sourced from a grab sample in a volcanic shear zone, grading at 37.71 grams per tonne.

‘These showings add to our thesis that the Matagami camp has the potential to produce gold,’ said Peter Van Alphen, Nuvau’s President and CEO. ‘The data from this MAG survey will help us develop our eventual diamond drill program related to the gold grain anomaly we recently identified, which is scheduled to start in the second half of 2025. We have just begun to uncover the gold potential of this 1,300 square kilometre land package, where exploration to date has been limited to base metals even though it is in a region known for hosting gold mineralization, including the Detour Gold and Casa Berardi gold mines.’

The detailed high resolution drone MAG survey was flown over the area surrounding PD-23-030s, extending north and northeast of the anomaly (see Figure 1). The western limit of the survey is approximately 3 kilometres away from the Caber Complex and the Renaissance discovery, the undeveloped massive sulfide cluster with near-term production potential. This high resolution MAG survey will provide valuable geophysical data to support Nuvau’s continuing base metal exploration of the underexplored northern part of the property.

The MAG survey was flown along 25-metre spaced lines oriented at N020° for total line kilometers of 5,066 kilometres. The data was captured at low altitude, approximately 20 metres above ground and will provide a global image of the extended area. Overall, a total area of 128 square kilometres was covered.

The quality and resolution of the survey will enable interpretation of the contrasting geological units as well as structural interpretation, which is key to both the future exploration of region for both gold and base metals. Although this area was previously covered by a mosaic of lower resolution surveys, the data was of much lower definition than what current technology can deliver.
