TDG GOLD CORP. INTERSECTS 194 METRES OF 1.10 G/T GOLD AND 25 G/T SILVER ACROSS THE CREEK AND JM ZONES, SHASTA PROJECT, TOODOGGONE DISTRICT, B.C.

White Rock, British Columbia, February 22, 2022. TDG Gold Corp. (TSXV: TDG) (the “Company” or “TDG”) is pleased to report a 194 metre (“m”) drill intercept (Figure 1) of 1.10 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”) and 25 g/t silver (“Ag”) [1.41 g/t AuEq*] spanning the JM and Creek Zones (Figure 2) at TDG’s former producing Shasta project in the Toodoggone District, B.C.

DDH SH21-026 intersected: 194 m of 1.10 g/t Au and 25 g/t Ag from 33.5 m depth

“These assay results from drillhole 26 of our 2021 exploration program at Shasta are very important because they confirm continuity of mineralization between the two mineralized zones (Figure 2) that were historically mined on a small scale,” commented Steven Kramar, TDG’s BC Program Lead/Senior Geologist.

“Our exploration concept at Shasta from the outset was that significant widths of medium to lower grade gold and silver mineralization, hosted in breccia and stockwork, occur as halos contiguous to the higher-grade pods and veins.

The depth from surface perpendicular to the end of hole 26 is approximately 170 m to 175 m vertical, which makes this one of the deepest holes ever drilled at Shasta. It’s still early days for us at Shasta, but we’re very pleased and excited by what we’ve seen and learned so far, as we look to define a potentially bulk mineable gold and silver deposit.”

Other key intercepts in the 2021 drilling within the cross-section window are summarised in Table 1 and presented on cross-section, along drillhole SH21-026; Figure 3. A complete assay table of results for drillhole SH21-026 can also be viewed on the TDG Gold Corp. website (link).

Assay results were received from SGS Labs Canada (“SGS”). Internal QA/QC review by TDG, working with Moose Mountain Technical Services (“MMTS”), is ongoing and therefore results are still considered preliminary.

Drillhole SH21-026 intersected variably silicified, potassic-altered plagioclase phyric crystal tuffs and lithic tuffs. Quartz/quartz carbonate veining was variable: from sparse parallel vein sets, multi-generational cross cutting composite veining to complete hydrothermal brecciation. Generally, intensity of quartz veining is indicative of higher concentrations of mineralization, but is not always the case. The dominant sulphide assemblage is pyrite and vein hosted acanthite. Photo 1 presents an example of vein style and mineralization; in this case, higher concentrations of precious metals correlate to intensity of quartz veining/brecciation (from 56 m to 57.5 m; 3.91 g/t Au & 251 g/t Ag).

Drillhole SH21-026 was planned to twin historical hole SH87-23 and also to confirm mineralization past the final depth of SH87-23 across the width of the deposit westerly from the JM Zone to the Creek Zone into the Shasta Fault. The drillhole intersected a long, broad width of mineralization throughout the whole section of the conceptual pit (defined by historical data), including some low-grade mineralization after the Shasta Fault (on the hanging wall side) at approximately 267 m downhole.

QA/QC Samples for the Shasta 2021 drill program followed chain of custody between collection, processing and delivery to an SGS laboratory in Burnaby, B.C. The drill cores were delivered to the core shack at TDG’s Baker Mine site, and processed by geologists who inserted certified reference materials, blanks and duplicates (pulp and coarse) into the sampling sequence. The 2021 drill core was cut in half (1/2 HQ core) and placed in zip-tied polyurethane bags, then in security-sealed rice bags before being delivered directly from the Baker Mine site, to Bandstra Transportation Systems in Prince George, B.C., and ultimately to the SGS laboratory in Burnaby, B.C. Samples were prepared and analyzed following procedures summarized in Table 4, where information about methodology can be found on the SGS Canada Website, in the analytical guide (here).

Quality assurance and control (“QAQC”) is maintained internally at the lab through rigorous use of internal certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates. An additional QAQC program was administered by TDG Gold through the use of certified reference materials (“CRMs”), duplicate samples and blank samples that were blindly inserted into the sample batch. 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. For the purposes of this press release, results are ‘preliminary’ and thus have not undergone TDG’s comprehensive QAQC investigations.
