Initial Drill Holes Returned Zn, Ag and Au Over Wide Widths on Chibougamau Independent Claims Optioned to TomaGold

Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. (CBG-TSX-V in Canada, CLL1-Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin and Lang & Schwarz Stock Exchanges in Germany, CMAUF-OTC in the US), herein called Chibougamau, is pleased to inform shareholders that TomaGold Corporation (LOT-TSXV, TOGOF-OTCPK) have reported intersecting zinc, silver and gold mineralization in drill holes on the Berrigan claims located in the Chibougamau mining camp, under option from Chibougamau Independent Mines.

Intersections as reported by TomaGold on December 22, 2025, include:

Main High-Grade Intersections:

  • Hole TOM-25-009 (from 156.70 m): 6.68% ZnEq (1.57 g/t AuEq) over 48.05 metres, including 39.03% ZnEq (9.15 g/t AuEq) over 2.90 metres and 21.86% ZnEq (5.12 g/t AuEq) over 5.40 metres.
  • Hole TOM-25-009 (from 244.50 m): 5.44% ZnEq (1.27 g/t AuEq) over 15.20 metres, including 25.15% ZnEq (5.85 g/t AuEq) over 2.55 metres.
  • Hole TOM-25-010 (from 130.70 m): 2.67% ZnEq (0.62 g/t AuEq) over 48.30 metres, including 12.87% ZnEq (3.00 g/t AuEq) over 6.25 metres.

    Note: The reported widths from TomaGold represent core lengths. ZnEq and AuEq are calculated using the Company's standard parameters. True width is estimated to be approximately 80–85% of the core length, depending on the deviation angles.

Five additional holes targeting lateral and depth extensions of the mineralized envelope are out for assay and a Borehole EM Survey is currently underway to try to identify new targets in the area of the currently disclosed drill-hole assay results. See attached longitudinal section.
