Dryden Gold Intersects 15 Gold Mineralized Structures in Single Hole at Gold Rock

Highlights:

• Hole DGR-036 intersects Treasure grading 5.03 g/t gold over 7.50 meters including 43.60 g/t gold 0.58 meters.

• Hole DGR-037 intersects Treasure grading 5.73 g/t gold over 2.20 meters including 32.90 g/t gold over 0.30 meters.

• Gap Hole 2 intersects Treasure at 460 meters true depth grading 2.64 g/t gold over 2.50 meters including 10.80 g/t gold over 0.50 meters.

• Gap Hole 2 returned 77.90 g/t gold over 0.50 meters in a second footwall zone at Pearl.

Trey Wasser, CEO of Dryden Gold, stated, “Gap Hole 2 significantly expands Gold Rock by intersecting 15 gold mineralized structures over 600 meters. It shows that the high-grade structures discovered in last year’s drilling extend along strike for 500 meters. It proves that Big Master continues to depths of over 450 meters below surface, 200 meters deeper that previous drilling. This nearly doubles the potential of Big Master where it remains open at depth. Intercepting the stacked mineralized structures also substantially increases the number of targets at Gold Rock. Drilling this spring will remain focused on Gold Rock as we proceed with additional permitting at Mud Lake, Hyndman and Sherridon”.

To begin the 2026 drill campaign, Gap Hole 2 was drilled across the Gold Rock to test the strike continuity of the multiple parallel structures intersected last year in Hole DGR-25-018 (“Gap Hole 1”) 500 meters to the south. Drilling also tested additional targets at Big Master with the goal of expanding the high-grade mineralization along strike from Spyglass to Treasure and also expanding Barrelman. The two Gap Holes give geological confidence to the interpretation of multiple parallel gold mineralized structures that are showing good continuity along strike and across Gold Rock. These holes have shown favourable geological features between Elora and Big Master further expanding the potential drill targets at Gold Rock. The geologic cross sections for both Gap Holes show all the mineralized structures which span over 600 meters width and 500 meters strike length (Figure 3).
