Trident Resources Initiates Exploration Program at Greywacke and Hailstone Properties in Saskatchewan

Vancouver, BC, Oct. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trident Resources Corp. (TSX-V: ROCK) (OTCQB: TRDTF) (“Trident” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it is launching a geological mapping and geochemical sampling program at its 100%-owned Greywacke and Hailstone properties in Saskatchewan. This program will focus on identifying and expanding known gold showings to support future drill targeting. Trident sees strong potential in the underexplored La Ronge Gold Belt, which hosts multiple gold deposits but has seen limited exploration in the past 50 years.

Fall 2025 Exploration Program:

The upcoming field program will focus on the Greywacke Property, which hosts the Greywacke Gold Deposit. This deposit contains a historical (2021) mineral resource estimate of:

•  101,000 oz. of gold @ 4.90 g/t (Indicated Mineral Resources)
• 54,000 oz. of gold @ 4.24 g/t (Inferred Mineral Resources)

Gold mineralization at Greywacke extends for several kilometers both northeast and southwest, including at known showings such as Lyons Zone, Hoover Lake, Wasp Lake, and Closure Lake. Trident will also begin initial work at the nearby Hailstone Property, for which Trident recently signed an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest.

Jonathan Wiesblatt, Chief Executive Officer of Trident, commented: “The La Ronge Gold Belt is underexplored and has the potential to host multiple multi-million-ounce gold deposits. Greywacke is particularly promising and could quickly grow in size with minimal drilling. That makes it one of the top priorities for the company moving forward. In parallel, Trident has expanded its initial drill program at the Contact Lake Gold Project from 5,000 meters to over 6,500 meters in 18–20 drill holes. This decision was based on promising early visuals of mineralization. The Company is fully funded, with over C$12.5 million in its treasury.

Further, we expect ample news flow in the coming months from this drill program, technical report updates related to the company’s ongoing Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) work, and continued consolidation of properties in this prolific gold district.”

Geological Discussion:

The Greywacke Lake Gold Project is located approximately 88 km northeast of La Ronge and 22 km northeast of the community of Missinipe. Road access to the 16,078-hectare (6 claims) project is available via an 11 km access trail that branches southeast from Highway 102. The main project area is comprised of three sub-parallel zones, North, Central and South that are part of the 7 km Wacke Mineralization Trend. The Greywacke North Gold Deposit is located in the North Zone and hosts a historical Mineral Resource Estimate (2021). Other mineralized targets along the Wacke trend include:
