Canadian Gold Corp. Field Exploration Underway at Hammond Reef South and Tartan West
Hammond Reef South
The 2025 field exploration program is designed to follow up on the high grade gold samples discovered last year, which remain open along strike. This program will be funded using proceeds of a recently closed $385,000 private placement of flow-through shares.
Last year's program successfully identified a new high-grade gold zone with assays returning 35.4 gpt, 11.6 gpt, 7.1 gpt, and 2.9 gpt gold (see: September 25, 2024 CGC News Release). The Hammond Reef South property is located only 2 km from Agnico Eagle's Hammond Reef Deposit, which contains a large mineral resource of more than 5 million ounces of gold and occurs in the same geological environment (Fig. 1). Exploration is currently focused on evaluating the extent of the gold system as well as the broader mineralized corridor that extends over a 6.7 km strike and parallel to Agnico Eagle's Hammond Reef Deposit (Fig.1).
The current program will include follow-up surface work along strike to better evaluate the lateral extent, width and continuity of the gold system, building on last year's strong results (Fig.2).
In addition, the Company is also planning a geophysical program to target areas of higher sulphide content, which have shown a strong correlation with the gold mineralization. Together, the surface work will focus on tracing the trend of the mineralization while the geophysics will help identify potential extensions of the system beneath cover and at depth to refine high-priority targets for drilling.
Tartan West Property
Field crews have also commenced a ground reconnaissance program along the Tartan Shear Zone on the Tartan West Property (Fig. 3).
The current Tartan West program consists of detailed mapping, prospecting, and sampling to evaluate and verify the historic high-grade surface showings (Fig.4), which will aid with prioritization of areas for additional work such as trenching, stripping and diamond drilling.
Historic high-grade gold surface samples with no follow-up drilling returned: 118 gpt gold and 53.5 gpt gold (Fig. 4).
Highlights of the historic drilling include extremely high-grade results: 44.2 gpt gold over 2.5 metres, 68.9 gpt gold over 1.1 metres, 60.0 gpt over 1.1 metres and 595.2 gpt over 0.2 metres. Additional drill assays have returned results comparable to the Tartan Mine, including 11.6 gpt gold over 3.8 metres, 7.7 gpt gold over 4.4 metres, 6.4 gpt gold over 2.4 metres and 12.9 gpt gold over 1.13m (Fig. 4).
The program at the Tartan West property is an important first step toward a goal of potentially levering future infrastructure investments over an expanded resource base, delivering enhanced economies of scale including:
the potential to build a single process facility at the Tartan Mine and source ore from multiple areas along the contiguous Tartan Shear Zone, reducing the capital needed on a per ounce basis once a decision has been made to restart production; and
ability to access Tartan West mineralization in the future from current and planned Tartan Mine underground infrastructure.

Impact Silver Intersects 18.03% ZnEq over 2.60m Including 23.70% ZnEq over 0.73m at the Plomosas Mine
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 29, 2025) - IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSXV: IPT) (OTCQB: ISVLF) (FSE: IKL) ("IMPACT" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results from its initial underground drill program in the Santo Domingo Zone at its Plomosas zinc (lead-silver) Mine in northern Mexico. SANTO DOMINGO ZONE DRILLING First IMPACT drill intersections from the Santo Domingo Zone of the Plomosas Mine are as follows: TABLE 1: SANTO DOMINGO ZONE DRILL RESULTS Hole No. From (metres) To (metres) Interval (metres) Estimated True Width (metres) Zinc (%) Lead (%) Silver (g/t) ZnEq* (%) UGSD-2501 59.50 63.00 3.50 3.32 6.35 1.56 8.06 7.64 Including 61.50 63.00 1.50 1.42 12.50 2.56 14.80 14.66 UGSD-2502 70.41 82.50 12.09 10.68 4.13 2.32 10.02 5.97 Including 71.91 76.50 4.59 4.06 8.37 3.59 16.36 11.25 Including 71.91 72.53 0.62 0.55 23.30 15.00 54.10 34.78 Including 74.45 75.00 0.55 0.49 15.40 7.45 29.10 21.19 UGSD-2504 47.06 48.18 1.12 0.89 9.03 21.20 30.10 23.56 UGSD-2505 74.40 77.82 3.42 2.60 11.08 9.24 30.00 18.03 Including 76.86 77.82 0.96 0.73 12.50 15.55 37.00 23.70 *Zinc Equivalent (ZnEq) is calculated using recent metal prices of US$1.21/lb Zn, US$0.88/lb Pb and US$38.07/oz Ag, and metal recoveries of 88.9% Zn, 77.3% Pb, and 71.3% Ag based on recent Plomosas production mill recoveries. Metal equivalence values allow for easier comparison of mineral zones with multiple metals reporting. True width estimates are interpreted from current geological models. These Santo Domingo drill holes are located north of IMPACT's active mine workings in the Plomosas Mine (see Figures 2&3). All these Santo Domingo drill intersections lie outside the JORC mineral resource blocks published by the previous operator (see IMPACT news release dated April 3, 2023 for details). Santo Domingo Zone mineralization remains open for exploration and drilling is continuing. CEO STATEMENT President and CEO Frederick Davidson commented, "Finding high-grade mineralization on this extension of the Santo Domingo Zone beyond the mine workings, adds yet more upside to the Plomosas Mine. Before this drilling, this area had not figured into our mining plans but with the zone located close to our active mine workings at Plomosas, it represents another area where we can quickly add high-grade production. Drilling is continuing with the aim to define additional resources on multiple zones at Plomosas." PLOMOSAS MINE GEOLOGY AND MINERALIZATION The Plomosas mine, a historic high-grade zinc producer in northern Mexico (Figure 1), was acquired in 2023 by the Company. Recent drill programs have been undertaken on extensions of active mine areas in the Tres Amigos area and nearby in the Juarez and Santo Domingo areas, where drilling continues (see Figure 2). Mineralization at the Plomosas mine occurs as zinc-rich Carbonate Replacement zones in three bedrock units - the Mina Vieja marble (Tres Amigos Zone), the Juarez limestone (Juarez Zone) and in carbonate layers within the Cuesta Shale (Santo Domingo Zone) - where structural ground preparation along these units accommodated concentrations of zinc, lead, and silver (see Figure 3). ABOUT IMPACT SILVER IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSXV: IPT) is a successful producer-explorer with two mining projects in Mexico. Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver-Gold District: IMPACT owns 100% of the 211 km2 Zacualpan project in central Mexico where four producing underground silver mines and one open pit mine feed the central 500 tpd Guadalupe processing plant. To the south, the Capire Project includes a 200 tpd processing pilot plant adjacent to an open pit silver mine with an NI 43-101 inferred mineral resource of over 4.5 million oz silver, 48 million lbs zinc and 21 million lbs lead (see IMPACT news release dated January 18, 2016, for details and QP statement). Company engineers are reviewing Capire for a potential restart of operations to leverage improving commodity prices. Over the past 18 years, IMPACT has developed multiple exploration zones into commercial production and has produced over 13 million ounces of silver, generating revenue of more than $284 million, with no long-term debt. Plomosas Zinc-Lead-Silver District: Plomosas is a high-grade zinc producer in northern Mexico with exceptional exploration upside potential. In late 2023, the Company restarted mining operations and is ramping up production toward design capacity levels. Exploration potential at Plomosas is exceptional along the 6 km-long structure. This is in addition to other exploration targets on the 3,019-hectare property including untested copper-gold targets with indications of high-grade material at surface. Regionally, Plomosas lies in the same belt as some of the largest carbonate replacement deposits in the world. Quality Control/Quality Assurance Drill core was NTW size (5.71 cm diameter). Half core samples were collected with a rock saw and tagged for identification. All samples were securely stored at the Plomosas Mine until shipment. A total of 5% certified assay standards and 5% blanks were inserted into every sample shipment as a quality control measure. All samples were shipped to the ALS preparation laboratory in Chihuahua, Mexico, where they were fine crushed (70% passing a 2 mm screen), pulverized (85% passing a 75 micron screen) and pulp split separated for assay. These pulps were shipped to the ALS laboratory in North Vancouver, Canada, where a 10 gram split was aqua regia digested and then analyzed for 36 elements including zinc, lead and silver by ICP-AES spectrometry (ALS code ME-ICP41). Assays for base metals >1% used an overlimit ICP-AES method (ALS code OG46). ALS is an independent, international ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory.

Surge Copper Announces Closing of $5.9 Million Private Placement and Provides Update on Concurrent Strategic Investment
Vancouver, British Columbia, July 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Not for distribution to U.S. newswire services or dissemination in the United States Surge Copper Corp. (TSXV: SURG ) (OTCQB: SRGXF ) (Frankfurt: G6D2 ) ('Surge' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the 'Offering'), consisting of a total of 19,218,893 common shares (the 'Common Shares') at a price of $0.175 per Common Share and 9,433,963 charity flow-through common shares (the 'CFT Shares') at a price of $0.265 per CFT Share, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5.9 million. The Offering was completed pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions, as amended by Coordinated Blanket Order 45-935 - Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemptions. The Common Shares and CFT Shares issued under the Offering were issued to purchasers resident in Canada (other than the province of Québec) and in other qualifying jurisdictions outside of Canada on a private placement basis pursuant to relevant prospectus or registration exemptions in accordance with applicable laws, and such Common Shares and CFT Shares are not subject to a hold period in Canada in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. The gross proceeds from the CFT Shares issued under the Offering will be used prior to December 31, 2026 for exploration expenditures that will qualify as 'Canadian exploration expenses' and 'flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures' within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (collectively, the 'Qualifying Expenditures'). The Company will renounce all Qualifying Expenditures in favour of the purchasers of the CFT Shares, effective December 31, 2025. The net proceeds from the Common Shares issued under the Offering will be used to fund engineering, environmental, and early-stage permitting activities at the Company's Berg Project, as well as for general working capital purposes. These efforts are intended to support the anticipated completion of a Preliminary Feasibility Study ('PFS') and advancement into the Environmental Assessment ('EA') process. In connection with the Offering, the Company paid cash finder's fees totaling approximately $62,295 to EDE Asset Management Inc., Haywood Securities Inc., Canaccord Genuity Corp., Ventum Financial Corp., and Research Capital Corporation. Insiders of the Company subscribed for a total of 285,714 Common Shares under the Offering. The participation of insiders in the Offering constitutes a 'related party transaction', within the meaning of TSX-V Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ('MI 61-101'). The Company has relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of the related party participation in the Offering as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the Offering, insofar as it involved the interested parties, exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101). The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before the closing of the Offering because insider participation had not been confirmed until shortly prior to closing of the Offering, and the shorter period was necessary in order to permit the Company to close the Offering in a timeframe consistent with usual market practice for transactions of this nature. Concurrent Strategic Investment Update As disclosed in the Company's July 9, 2025 news release, Surge is also undertaking a concurrent private placement of Common Shares (the 'Concurrent Private Placement') to a significant strategic investor who currently holds participation rights and has indicated an intention to increase their ownership to up to 19.9% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares. The Concurrent Private Placement is expected to raise up to $4.5 million and close in approximately four weeks, subject to customary conditions, including TSX Venture Exchange acceptance and foreign regulatory approvals. Common Shares issued under the Concurrent Private Placement will be subject to a statutory four-month plus one day hold period. Securities Law Notice This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of any securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful including any of the securities in the United States of America. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the '1933 Act') or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) unless registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from such registration requirements is available.
