TORONTO, August 19, 2025 – Trigon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: TM, OTCPK: PNTZF) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the successful completion of a drone-based aeromagnetic survey over a key area of its Kalahari Copper Project. The Company has also finalized the data processing and 3D inversion, enabling interpretation and the definition of highly prospective exploration targets which will be the focus of upcoming exploration campaigns.

The survey area was selected for its favourable stratigraphy and structure, as well as its proximity to known mineralization at the Fiesta-Fortuna Prospect (Noronex Limited), located 4 km to the east (Fig. 1). Thick Kalahari sand cover (>40 m) necessitated the use of detailed airborne geophysical surveys to identify prospective targets. Structurally, the area is dominated by two regional-scale, doubly plunging anticlines. Ellipsoidal magnetic lows are interpreted to represent tight Ngwako Pan cored anticlines, flanked by magnetically positive anomalies associated with the D’Kar Formation.

The Heimat Fold Closure lies within the same domal structure as the Fiesta-Fortuna Prospect (Noronex Ltd) but is interpreted to occur higher in the stratigraphy, within the D’Kar Formation and away from the traditionally targeted contact with the lower Ngwako Pan Formation (Fig. 2). This target is based on Trigon’s understanding of the Kalahari Copper Belt (KCB) mineralization as likely having both diagenetic and epigenetic origins. Most KCB deposits are semi-stratiform and located near the Ngwako Pan/D’Kar contact. While minor mineralization is often found along this contact, major deposits also tend to be spatially linked to regional anticlines or domes, and in some cases to second-order faulting. The exploration focus is therefore on domal features with either an exposed Ngwako Pan/D’Kar contact or with its D’Kar “roof” still intact. The Heimat Fold Closure represents one such target, with known mineralization immediately to the east (along strike). Similarly, the Bushman Dome target area, covers a large Ngwako Pan Fm cored dome immediately to the south of the Heimat Dome.

3D inversion of the magnetic data has enabled Trigon to identify the relative depth of the prospective Ngwako Pan/D’Kar contact along the hinge zone of the Heimat Dome (Fig. 3). Trigon plans to use this knowledge to guide its maiden drilling program at the Kalahari Project. Additional magnetic targets identified within this prospective zone, include cigar shaped magnetic highs, likely representing 2^nd order, parasitic folding and linear structures attributed to late Damaran age faulting and thrusting. Further interrogation of the data is underway in order to identify specific drill targets.

Jed Richardson, CEO and Executive Chairman of Trigon, commented, “Our work at the Kalahari Copper Project has now moved beyond early-stage reconnaissance to a targeted strategy based on detailed geophysics. The survey results have given us a clear picture of where the most prospective structures lie, and we’re now positioned to advance towards drilling with a high degree of confidence. This is an exciting step forward as we unlock value from a district that continues to demonstrate world-class potential.”

Dr. Andreas Rompel, VP Exploration, adds, “The geological data strongly indicate folding along an axis trending WSW. In addition, a clear contact between two significant lithologies has been identified, which delineates a compelling drill target. We are excited to advance the next phases of exploration on what we believe is a highly prospective and prolific project.”

TORONTO, July 31, 2025 – Trigon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: TM; OTCPK: PNZTF; FRA:TZU2) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has received the initial portion (US$1M) of the US$2M advance from Horizon Corporation Ltd. (“Horizon”) ahead of August 4 ^th deadline and has notified the Company of its intention to advance the balance on or before August 4, 2025.

The accelerated payment follows the successful Trigon shareholder vote on July 4, 2025, and demonstrates Horizon’s commitment to closing the transaction in a timely manner. Please see Trigon’s press release dated May 29, 2025 for further details regarding the sale of Trigon’s interest in the Kombat Mine to Horizon.

Strategic Shift to Exploration – Addana Drill Program Planned

With the Company’s transition away from production at the Kombat Mine, Trigon is sharpening its focus on its exploration assets, particularly in Morocco. A drill program is planned at the Addana Project, located in the established mining region of Morocco. The program will target high-priority mineralized zones beneath existing underground workings and is designed to confirm and expand on known copper mineralization.

Initial drilling is budgeted at approximately US$350,000, and preparations are underway to mobilize field crews in the coming weeks. This marks the first phase of an exploration-driven strategy aimed at unlocking value from the Company’s high-potential copper and silver assets.

Jed Richardson, CEO and Executive Chairman of Trigon Metals, commented, “ We are pleased to see Horizon moving proactively to advance the first payment ahead of schedule. This show of confidence in the transaction provides us with the immediate financial flexibility to begin work at Addana. As we shift our focus toward exploration, we’re excited about the prospects in Morocco and look forward to delivering results that support long-term value creation for our shareholders. ”

(TSX-V: TM, OTCPK: PNTZF, FRA: TZU2) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) announces it has filed its financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 and details below the operational results for the quarter ending March 31, 2025. All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated.

Highlights

• Copper Production of 310,190 pounds and silver production of 6,878 ounces in Q4 at the Kombat Mine, following operational suspension in January 2025.
• Net Income: $18.1 million for the quarter, or ($0.38) per share, largely due to reversal of impairments and stream restructuring gains.
• Adjusted EBITDA ⁽¹⁾ was ($906,952), reflecting reduced output and continued care and maintenance of the Kombat Mine.
• Following the pause of mining operations announced on January 16, 2025, the Company has withdrawn all production, capex and exploration guidance. The Trigon management team is focused on completing the sale of its interests in the Kombat mine to Horizon, as set out below. Mining operations were suspended, with the majority of the onsite employees retrenched.

Summary of the Events of Financial Q4

During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, Trigon produced 310,190 pounds of copper and 6,878 ounces of silver prior to halting operations at the Kombat mine due to flooding in January 2025. C1 cash cost was $7.50 per pound. The high cash cost per pound metric was due to the low copper production combined with low copper plant recovery. Revenue totaled $1.92 million, while adjusted EBITDA ⁽¹⁾ was ($906,952). Net income was $18.1 million due to the reversal of prior impairments.

Jed Richardson, CEO and Executive Chairman of Trigon, commented, “ This quarter was shaped by both significant operational challenges and transformative corporate developments.

It strengthens our financial position and allows us to focus our energy and capital on high-potential exploration projects in Morocco and Namibia. We thank our team for navigating this period with resilience and remain optimistic about Trigon’s next chapter.”

Sale of Trigon’s Interest in the Kombat Mine

On May 27, 2025, the Company signed a definitive agreement to sell its interest in the Kombat Mine to Kamino Mineral Ltd., an affiliate of Horizon Corporation (the “Transaction”). The $24 million sale, payable over eight quarterly instalments, includes additional contingent payments tied to copper prices and mill expansion milestones. The Transaction is expected to provide Trigon with near-term liquidity and exposure to future upside at Kombat while redirecting strategic focus to its exploration assets.

Private Placement

In Q4, Trigon completed a non-brokered private placement in two tranches, raising gross proceeds of $2.53 million. Proceeds were used to fund corporate expenses and maintain the Kombat site during care and maintenance.

Strategic Shift to Focus on Exploration

Trigon is progressing its exploration campaigns at the Silver Hill and Addana projects in Morocco. The Company’s technical team continues to evaluate extensive polymetallic vein systems with potential for near-surface, high-grade mineralization.

Work continues at the Kalahari Copperbelt Project in Namibia, where Trigon holds an option to earn up to 70% of a highly prospective land package along strike from producing deposits. A total of $303,742 has been spent toward a $1 million exploration commitment.
