DRYDEN GOLD DELIVERS MORE HIGH-GRADE RESULTS AT JUBILEE AND EXPANDS TO TWO-DRILL STRATEGY AT GOLD ROCK

Dryden Gold Corp. has released drill results for infill drilling at Jubilee on the Elora gold system. Drilling at Jubilee tested between 150 to 200 metres with the goal of collecting structural data to improve in predicting high-grade gold mineralization at depth. Deeper down-plunge testing will begin this summer, and a second drill rig will be deployed to continue to fully define the high-grade footprint at Gold Rock.

Highlights

• DGR-054 returned 2.92 grams per tonne gold over 14.50 metres including 6.79 g/t gold over 5.00 metres also including two high-grade intercepts of 28.80 g/t gold over 0.40 metres and 15.30 g/t gold over 0.60 metre (Table 1).
• DGR-056 returned 2.48 g/t gold over 12.65 metres including 33.50 g/t gold over 0.50 metre.
• Confirmation of the multiple hanging wall and footwall mineralized stacked structures across Gold Rock, including DGR-053 intercepting 0.73 g/t gold over 9.58 metres.

Drilling down-plunge targets at Gold Rock has become a key strategic focus for the company following development of the new 3-D geological model which allows the team to better visualize the intersection lineation plunge controls on high-grade mineralization associated with the D3 deformation event. The geological team intends to systematically test all the high-grade zones at depth through approximately 100-metre down-plunge stepouts. Employing a second drill rig will allow for deeper drilling while simultaneously testing shallowly along strike with the goal of expanding the overall mineralization footprint. This footprint expansion drilling will test high-grade fault intersection targets at shallow depths across the parallel mineralized structures at Gold Rock followed by Mud Lake.

Maura Kolb, Dryden Gold's president, explains the summer drill program: "We are making great strides and have now identified a very robust near-surface, high-grade gold system at Gold Rock. We now have sufficient data to provide detailed 3-D models and systematically drill deep into these high-grade zones. With the increased confidence of our geological model, we will be adding a second drill rig at Gold Rock to allow for more rapid growth of this expansive gold system. We are now confident in our ability to vector into the high-grade zones at depth and additional testing can be done with shallow drilling."

Analytical laboratory and QA/QC (quality assurance/quality control) procedures

The company is drilling NQ size core. Samples are cut in half, with half going to the lab for analysis and half kept as a record. True thickness/widths of mineralization are unknown; result intervals are reported as the drilled core lengths unless otherwise stated. All sampling completed by Dryden Gold within its exploration programs are subject to the company's standard of internal quality control and quality assurance (QA/QC) programs which include the insertion of certified reference materials, blank materials and a level of duplicate analysis. Drill samples from the 2024, 2025 and 2026 programs were sent to Activation Laboratories, with sample preparation and analysis at the company's facilities in Dryden. Samples were processed for gold analysis by 50-gram fire assay with an atomic absorption finish and over limits determined by fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Select samples were analyzed using metallic screens. Activation Laboratories systems conform to requirements of ISO/IEC Standard 17025 guidelines and meet assay requirements outlined for National Instrument 43-101.
