Toogood Gold Reports 76.89 g/t Gold and Defines 8.5 Km High-Grade Gold Trend at the Toogood Gold Project, Newfoundland

Vancouver, March 25, 2026 - Toogood Gold Corp. (TSXV: TGC) (OTCQB: TGGCF) (FSE: D3P) ("Toogood" or the "Company") reports final results from its Phase 2 surface exploration program at the Company's 100%-owned Toogood Gold Project (the "Project"), located on New World Island, Newfoundland.

Highlights:

• High-grade gold up to 76.89 g/t confirmed, with additional results of 4.88 g/t and 4.49 g/t Au confirmed along the 8.5 km Shoreline gold trend (Figure 2), demonstrating district-scale potential;

• Additional high-grade mineralization confirmed at key target areas:

  • 34.50 g/t, 3.09 g/t and 2.93 g/t Au from quartz veins at Chimo, Vic, and Hank targets;

• Multiple new kilometre-scale gold corridors outlined in the NE Block (Figures 3 and 4):

  • 4 km Burnt Arm Trend, 2 km Western Trend and 1 km Eastern Trend;

• Strong alignment between gold mineralization and major structural controls supports a scalable, structurally controlled gold system;

• Over 650 rock and soil samples collected, significantly advancing geological understanding and target definition;

• Multiple high-priority drill targets defined, with work advancing toward initial drill testing.

Management Commentary

"Phase 2 results continue to demonstrate the scale and prospectivity of the Toogood Gold Project, with high-grade gold confirmed along an 8.5-kilometre-long trend and multiple kilometre-scale soil anomalies defined from regional sampling," stated Colin Smith, CEO of Toogood Gold Corp. "The strong alignment between surface mineralization, coherent geochemical signatures, and well-defined structural controls, including key lithological contacts and district-scale faults, provides a robust targeting framework to define and advance a growing pipeline of high-quality drill target corridors."

Geological Advancement and Targeting

Phase 2 exploration at the Toogood Gold Project (Q4, 2025) integrated detailed structural mapping, prospecting, and soil sampling, significantly advancing the geological model. A total of 340 rock and 315 soil samples were collected, identifying new high-grade gold occurrences and multiple kilometre-scale gold-in-soil anomalies (Figure 1).

Phase 2 mapping has materially improved the Company's understanding of structural controls on gold mineralization. Work on the Project has identified at least two semi-continuous mineralized zones developed along the sheared northern margin of the regionally extensive Mélange Complex.

Mineralization is characterized by stockwork quartz-carbonate veining within altered and brecciated volcaniclastic rocks, commonly associated with sulphidic black shales. Key controls on mineralization include:

• Structural convergence zones where multiple foliations, shears, and faults intersect, resulting in thickened and higher-grade mineralized zones;

• Reactive lithological contacts, particularly between mafic-intermediate volcaniclastic rocks and black shales; and

• Local enhancement of mineralization where intermediate porphyry dikes and sills intersect these favourable horizons.

These observations support a structurally controlled gold mineralizing system at both regional and local scales, underscoring the potential for significant gold mineralization across the Project.

Next Steps

Results from Phase 2 have defined multiple high-priority, structurally coherent target corridors in the NE Block, with strong spatial coincidence between gold-in-soil anomalies and interpreted structural controls.

The Company intends to advance these corridors toward drill testing, with current work focused on refining and prioritizing high-confidence targets along the Burnt Arm Fault corridor and parallel structures.

Planned 2026 work will include:

• Infill and regional soil sampling to better delineate anomalies and expand coverage into unsampled areas;

• Structural mapping and prospecting along auriferous corridors; and

• Drill target generation and ranking.

This integrated approach is designed to efficiently convert surface anomalies into high-confidence, scalable drill targets and support systematic evaluation of the Project's emerging gold corridors.

Analytical Procedure

All 2025 samples referenced in this release were prepared and analyzed by Eastern Analytical Limited (ISO/IEC 17025 accredited) in Springdale, Newfoundland. Gold analysis was completed by fire assay with an atomic absorption (AA) finish, and multi-element analysis was conducted using a 34-element ICP package.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control ("QA/QC")

The Company implemented standard industry QA/QC procedures for the 2025 program, including the insertion of certified reference materials and blank samples into the sample stream to monitor analytical accuracy and precision.
