Mr. John Anderson reports
TRIUMPH GOLD PROVIDES A 2026 OUTLOOK FOR SHAREHOLDERS
Triumph Gold Corp. has provided
the following letter to shareholders from John Anderson, chairman and chief executive officer.
I am pleased to continue in my role as executive chairman and CEO of Triumph Gold as we enter
2026. Since leading the company through its evolution from Northern Freegold in 2014, my focus
has remained on disciplined growth, technical advancement and capital management. As metal
markets strengthen and global demand for gold, silver, copper, tungsten, molybdenum and other
critical minerals continues to rise, Triumph Gold is well positioned for the year ahead. I believe
Triumph Gold presents an exceptional opportunity for our shareholders for several key reasons:
-
A strong resource base: The Freegold mountain project hosts approximately one million
gold equivalent ounces indicated and one million gold equivalent ounces inferred in three
deposits (Nucleus, Revenue and Tinta Hill) defined within three separate National Instrument 43-101-compliant
mineral resource estimates completed in 2020. The resource was defined when gold,
copper and silver prices were much lower than they are now, and no value was assigned
to the other metals hosted on the property, such as antimony. These deposits provide a
strong technical foundation from which the company can continue to expand geological
understanding and target resource growth. Details of the mineral resource estimate can
be found in the company's technical report available on SEDAR+.
-
Efficient capital structure: Following corporate restructuring in 2023, Triumph Gold
maintains a tightly held capital structure of approximately 60.2 million shares outstanding,
of which about 37 per cent are held by me, the board and key shareholders. Over the past two
years, the company has significantly reduced overhead and focused expenditures on
activities that directly support asset advancement, including the acquisition of the Coyote
Knoll project (see news release dated June 4, 2025, on SEDAR+). While mineral exploration was not a
primary focus in 2024 and 2025, our Freegold Mountain asset remains the focus in 2026.
- Mining-friendly jurisdictions: All of Triumph Gold's assets are positioned in world-class,
mining-friendly jurisdictions -- Yukon, British Columbia and Utah. These regions have a
proven record of responsibly discovering and developing world-class mineral
deposits.
Growth strategy for 2026
Triumph Gold's growth strategy is both clear and actionable: We are looking to expand geological
knowledge with a primary focus on the Coyote Knoll and Freegold Mountain properties, followed
by advancing the Andalusite Peak, Tad Toro and Big Creek properties, through systematic exploration
building on the company's geological data set and working toward new mineral discoveries:
-
Coyote Knoll (Utah): Following the 2025 acquisition, the company plans to undertake
geological mapping, surface sampling and shallow drilling to further evaluate silver and
gold epithermal vein mineralization beyond the historical mine workings.
-
Freegold Mountain (Yukon): A staged exploration approach is planned. Initial work will
refine drill targets through geological mapping and rock and soil sampling, followed by first-pass drill planning for targets outside defined resource areas.
- Secondary properties: Regional geological mapping and surface sampling programs
are planned at the Tad Toro and Big Creek properties, located along strike from Freegold
Mountain within the Dawson Range. Similar grassroots work is also planned at the
Andalusite Peak property in British Columbia's Golden Horseshoe district, located
approximately 60 kilometres from the Red Chris and Saddle North copper-gold porphyry deposits.
Organic growth opportunities
The company continues to review and evaluate mineral properties for potential strategic
acquisitions to diversify the existing portfolio.
Commitment to responsible development
Triumph Gold is committed to working collaboratively with first nations and local communities,
ensuring our exploration and development activities are conducted in an environmentally and
culturally responsible manner. The company acknowledges the traditional territories on which its
properties are located and maintains continuing engagement focused on communication,
environmental stewardship and local participation.
Looking ahead
On behalf of the board of directors, I thank our shareholders for their continued support. We
believe 2026 will be an important year for growth opportunities and expanding the geological
understanding of our assets. We look forward to providing updates as exploration activities
progress.

Triumph Gold is a Canadian-based, growth-oriented exploration and development company with
a district-scale land package in mining-friendly Yukon. Led by an experienced management and
technical team, the company is focused on actively advancing the flagship Freegold Mountain
project using multidisciplinary exploration and evaluation techniques.
The road-accessible Freegold Mountain project, located in the Dawson Range gold-copper belt, is host
to three NI 43-101 mineral deposits (Nucleus, Revenue and Tinta Hill). A summary of the mineral
resource estimates can be viewed in the Feb. 11, 2020, news release. The project is 200 square
kilometres and covers an extensive section of the Big Creek fault zone, a structure directly
related to gold-copper-silver porphyry and epithermal gold-silver mineralization. The company
owns 100 per cent of the Big Creek and Tad Toro gold-silver-copper properties situated along strike of
the Freegold Mountain project within the Dawson Range.
The company acquired the Coyote Knoll silver-gold epithermal project in 2025. This mineral
exploration property is situated approximately 40 kilometres southwest from the prolific Tintic
silver mining district.
The company also owns 100 per cent of the Andalusite Peak copper-gold property, situated 36
kilometres southeast of Dease Lake within the Stikine range in British Columbia.
The technical content of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Triumph Gold's
principal geologist, Marty Henning, PGeo, a qualified person as defined in NI 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, of the Canadian Securities Administrators.
