Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 8, 2025) - Transatlantic Mining Corp. (TSXV: TCO) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the company has received its permit from the United States Forrest Service for new drilling and dewatering at its Golden Jubilee project, located in Granite County, Montana. The permit is approved to December 1, 2025.
Previous drilling by Transatlantic at the Golden Jubilee Mine announced on April 13, 2023, consisted of 10 reverse circulation holes for a total of 2,000 metres (m). The results from this drilling program confirmed that the mineralized structure continues down dip and along strike from mineralization which has either been mined previously or delineated by earlier drilling.
The 2025 follow-up program will further test the down dip extension and plunge of the main zone of mineralization.
It will also test a geophysical offset target that has not been drilled before. Additionally the permit allows for Transatlantic to dewater the mine and survey it for further exploration potential. The current plan envisages for Transatlantic to drill up to 1,000 metres in 2 to 4 holes to moderately shallow depths of 300 metres.
"After the last successful program in 2023, we're excited to test further of the down dip and plunge of this main zone of high-grade gold mineralization with the potential to add ounces of gold to our envisioned deposit model," said Bernie Sostak, CEO of Transatlantic. "There is also the potential to test the geophysical offset as a discovery and additional parallel mineralized zones at Golden Jubilee. This could have significant impact on the overall gold-bearing potential and future gold endowment."

Transatlantic CEO Bernie Sostak will host an interactive webinar discussing the company's exploration programs and future plans on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, at 9:00 am PT. Register in advance for this meeting via the following link:

About Golden Jubilee
The 22 Golden Jubilee claims are situated in Granite County, Montana USA and have had a number of previous owners. There has been only limited exploration and mining on the regional Red Lion (vein) Line trend, which is known to continue over a regional strike of 7 km in length. The Golden Jubilee Mine is located in mountainous country at an elevation of approximately 2,350 m.
Historical Production
Although some mining occurred prior to the year 2000, there are limited production records in existence.

Aslam Awan PhD MAusIMM (CP Geo) is the Qualified Person pursuant to National Instrument 43-101 for having reviewed, only the technical information and approved as such contained in this news release. Mr. Awan is the Principal for AAA GeoConsultants :
(*)The reverse circulation drill samples were crushed in whole to plus 70 % passing 2 mm and then split and pulverised with analysis for gold and silver at the Christofferson Laboratory, Smelterville, Idaho USA. The Laboratory is an independent assay and umpire laboratory that follows industry techniques with blanks and standards inserted on batches of 25. The samples being pulverised and analysed with a 15 to 30 gram fire assay charge and a gravimetric finish. True widths were estimated based on the dip cross section width of the mineralisation at 1.0 g/t Au cutoff ( Table 1). Additional historical holes drilled and assayed are also on Figure 1. The Company also adds a standard to determine any assay bias.
