Paul Reynolds, Triumph Gold’s President and CEO, comments, “RVD18-19 contains a
truly exceptional intersection. Not only does it represent the longest and
highest grade intersection in the Blue Sky Porphyry to date, but it is one of
the highest grade intersections ever made in a porphyry system in the Yukon. At
565.6 gram metres**** gold equivalent*, it is likely to be one of the best
intersections made on a gold exploration property this year. I congratulate our
technical team for their perseverance and success in testing previously untested
ground surrounding the Revenue and Nucleus deposits.”
Blue Sky Porphyry
Since 2016 Triumph Gold’s exploration on the Freegold Mountain Property has been
focused on the six-kilometre-long, multi-element soil and geophysical anomaly
that encompasses the Revenue and Nucleus areas. Within the anomaly, the Blue Sky
Zone covers a broad area extending 2.3 kilometres east of the Revenue diatreme
(Figure 1) to the eastern margin of the anomaly. It was drill tested in 2017
with significant intersections made in RVD17-13 (57.00 metres of 1.08 g/t Au,
6.6 g/t Ag, 0.285% Cu and 0.02% Mo from 112.00m; Table 1) and RVD17-01 (Table
1). Three previously released 2018 drill holes (see NR18-08 dated Aug. 23; Table
1) successfully targeted the Blue Sky Porphyry and demonstrated both high-grade
and contiguous mineralization over up to 202.10 metres (RVD18-17, which included
125.13 metres of 1.24 g/t Au, 7.0 g/t Ag, 0.31% Cu, and 0.01% Mo; Table 1). With
RVD18-19, RVD18-20 and RVD18-21, described in this news release, the size and
grade of the Blue Sky Porphyry continues to grow. RVD18-19 contains the
longest*** intersection (316.00m of
1.09% CuEq*; Table 1), the highest grade composite (79.75m of 2.48 g/t Au, 0.38%
Cu, 6.9 g/t Ag and 0.02% Mo; Table 1), and the highest grade gold in a single
assay (39.4 g/t Au from 376.60 – 377.60m) to date.

High-grade, gold-rich mineralization in the Blue Sky Porphyry is demonstrated
over 180 meters in a NE-SW direction and occupies the north-eastern extent of a
500 metre long corridor of well mineralized rock that includes the newly defined
WAu breccia (e.g. 76.34 metres of 1.40 g/t Au, 9.2 g/t Ag, 0.21% Cu and 0.032%
Mo in RVD11-19; see PR#18-07, dated July 21, 2018), and porphyry related
stockwork style mineralization (e.g. 238.10 metres of 0.31 g/t gold and 0.13%
copper in RVD11-22). The high-grade zone is modeled as an irregular shaped body
with a south or south-east dipping upper surface that is open along strike to
the northeast, west, and downdip to the south and southeast. The 500 metre-long
corridor is contained within a 3.6 kilometre zone of porphyry mineralization
that extends from the Happy Creek showing (269.00 metres of 0.29 g/t AuEq* in
RVD17-09, see PR#17-13, dated Nov. 2, 2017) to the Keirsten Zone (100 metres of
0.32 g/t AuEq* in KZ18-01, see PR#18-07, dated July 21, 2018). The broader zone
of porphyry mineralization is flanked to the west by the Nucleus epithermal gold
deposit, and cross-cut by a locally well mineralized diatreme (the Revenue
Diatreme).
Mineralization associated with the Blue Sky Porphyry is hosted in the
Mid-Cretaceous Revenue granite and in late-syn-mineral quartz-feldspar-porphyry
dykes. It consists of chalcopyrite and molybdenite in quartz veins, hydrothermal
breccia matrix, and disseminated in hydrothermally altered granite and
quartz-feldspar porphyry dykes. The most intense mineralization is associated
with strong potassic (K-feldspar grading outwards into biotite) alteration. A
set of late quartz-carbonate veins are concentrated within the main mineralized
zone and contain variable amounts of chalcopyrite, molybdenite, galena,
sphalerite, bismuthinite, and visible gold. The porphyry is gold-rich
throughout, but the late quartz-carbonate veins represent an important second
stage of gold enrichment.
Ongoing Exploration of the Blue Sky Porphyry
The high-grade mineralization identified in the Blue Sky Zone continues to be a
focus of exploration activity:
1. Deep penetrating induced polarization and infill magnetic geophysical surveys
are currently being organized.
2. Crews are completing an infill soil survey over Revenue East and the Blue Sky
Zone.
3. Roadbuilding and trenching have exposed new outcrops in the Blue Sky Zone,
which are being mapped and prospected.
4. Expert porphyry and structural geology consultants have been brought to the
Freegold Mountain Property to conduct reviews of the Blue Sky Porphyry (John
Bradford, M.Sc., P.Geo., Triumph Gold technical advisor and Cam Bartch M.Sc.,
P.Geo., Terrane Geoscience).
Exploration Update
Triumph Gold’s 2018 Freegold Mountain Property drill campaign, which began in
late March, is now complete. Geophysics, trenching and soil sampling programs
are expected to continue until early October. Triumph Gold has released the
results from 9,672 metres of diamond drilling in the Keirsten Zone, Revenue
East, and the Blue Sky Zone. Drill results from these zones have been released
in their entirety. Future news releases will focus on grassroots exploration
drilling in the Guder (1,352 metres) and Granger (1,014 metres) zones,
exploration and resource drilling at Nucleus (4,159 metres), and the inaugural
drilling of the Irene epithermal vein (1,369 metres).

Notes:
* Gold equivalent [AuEq], and copper equivalent [CuEq] are
used for illustrative purposes, to express the combined value of gold, silver,
molybdenum and copper as a percentage of gold or copper. No allowances have been
made for recovery losses that would occur in a mining scenario. AuEq and CuEq
are calculated on the basis of US$3.00 per pound of copper, US$16.00 per pound
of molybdenum, US$1,250 per troy ounce of gold and US$16.00 per troy ounce of
silver.
** Coordinates are given in North American Datum 83 (NAD83), Zone 8.
*** Length/interval refer to drill hole intercept. True widths have not been
determined.
**** Gram metres are a metric used to compare the relative quality of drill
intersections that vary in grade and length. In this press release gram-metres
are calculated using the following equation (AqEq*[g/t] x Intersection Length***
[metres]).
Methods and Qualified Person
Drill core samples ranged between 1 and 2 metres length and were cut at
Triumph’s core logging facility on the Freegold Mountain Property. The samples
were analyzed by SGS Canada of Vancouver, British Columbia. They were prepared
for analysis according to SGS method PRP89: each sample was crushed to 75%
passing 2mm and a 250g split was pulverized to better than 85% passing 75 micron
mesh. Gold was tested by fire assay with atomic absorption finish on a 30g
nominal sample (method GE FAA313), and samples that tested over 10 g/t Au were
retested using 50g screened metallics (GO FAS50M), which uses a combination of
AAS, ICP-AES and gravimetric finishes to determine gold contained in both a fine
and coarse fraction after being sieved through 106 mesh. An additional 35
elements were tested by ICP-AES using a four-acid digestion (method GE ICP40B),
over limit samples for copper were retested using the same technique but with
assay grade four acid digestion and a higher range of detection (method GA
AAS42S). Quality assurance and control (QAQC) is maintained at the lab through
rigorous use of internal standards, blanks and duplicates. An additional QAQC
program was administered by Triumph Gold: at minimum three quality control
samples, consisting of blanks, certified reference standards and duplicates,
were blindly inserted into each 75 sample batch. QAQC samples that return
unacceptable values trigger investigations into the results and reanalyses of
the samples that were tested in the batch with the failed QAQC sample.

Since 2016, Triumph Gold’s exploration has been focused on the six-kilometre-long
intense multi-element soil and geophysical anomaly that encompasses the Revenue
and Nucleus deposit areas. Within the anomaly, the Blue Sky Zone covers a broad
area extending 2.3 kilometres east of Revenue to the eastern margin of the
anomaly. It was drill tested in 2017 with significant intersections made in
RVD17-13 (57 metres of 1.08 g/t gold, 6.6 g/t silver, 0.285% copper and 0.01%
molybdenum from 121.00m) and RVD17-01 (94.38 metres of 0.34 g/t gold, 3.9 g/t
silver, 0.17% Cu and 0.02% molybdenum from 369.62m) (see PR17-13, Nov. 2, 2017).
The 2018 drill holes were designed as follow-up to the successful exploration
conducted in 2017. RVD18-05, RVD18-16, and RVD18-17 were drilled roughly
perpendicular to RVD17-01 and RVD17-13 and together they delineate high-grade,
gold-rich mineralization over a 180 metre area that is open in all directions
and to depth. It is contained within an at least 3.6 kilometre long zone of
porphyry mineralization that extends from the Happy Creek showing (290 metres of
0.29 g/t AuEq in RVD17-09, see PR#17-13, dated Nov. 2, 2017) to the Keirsten
Zone (100 metres of 0.31 g/t AuEq in KZ18-01, see PR#18-07, dated July 21, 2018)
(Figure 1 – inset), and includes RVD11-22 located 250 metres to the SW of the
high grade intersections in the Blue Sky Zone (238.10 metres of 0.31 g/t gold
and 0.13% copper).
Geology of the Blue Sky Porphyry Mineralization associated with the Blue Sky Porphyry is hosted in the
Mid-Cretaceous Revenue granite and in late-syn-mineral quartz-feldspar-porphyry
dykes. It consists of chalcopyrite and molybdenite in quartz veins, hydrothermal
breccia matrix, and disseminated in hydrothermally altered granite and
quartz-feldspar porphyry dykes. The most intense mineralization is associated
with strong potassic (K-feldspar grading outwards into biotite) alteration. A
set of late quartz-carbonate veins are concentrated within the main mineralized
zone and contain variable amounts of chalcopyrite, molybdenite, galena,
sphalerite, bismuthinite, and visible gold. The porphyry is gold-rich
throughout, but the late quartz-carbonate veins represent an important second
stage of gold enrichment.
Ongoing Exploration of the Blue Sky Zone Triumph Gold has allocated significant resources to the Blue Sky Zone to
continue exploration of the gold-rich porphyry system.
1. An additional seven drill holes have been completed to test the extent and
geometry of the Blue Sky Porphyry. The results will be reported separately once
they have been received and checked for quality. 2. Crews are currently upgrading the soil grid and conducting trenching within
the Blue Sky Zone. 3. A deep penetrating induced polarization (IP) and infill ground magnetic
surveys are being planned for the fall. The compiled results from 2018 drilling, new soil grid, trenching and geophysics
will allow Triumph Gold’s technical team to plan a robust follow-up program of
exploration to define a resource on the Blue Sky Zone in 2019.
Presidents Comment
Paul Reynolds, Triumph Gold’s President and CEO comments, “Triumph's
exploration team continues to have incredible success drilling the Blue Sky
Porphyry, which was discovered last season. With these new intersections we
have begun to delineate a high grade gold-rich core to the system, which is
open in all directions and to depth. We will focus on extending the
mineralized envelope and defining a resource. We are also applying the same
exploration strategies that led to discovery of the Blue Sky Porphyry across
the 200 square kilometre area of the Freegold Mountain Property. This is a
truly exciting period for the company.”

Methods and Qualified Person
Drill core samples ranged between 1 and 2 metres length and were cut at
Triumph’s core logging facility on the Freegold Mountain Property. The samples
were analyzed by SGS Canada of Vancouver, British Columbia. They were prepared
for analysis according to SGS method PRP89: each sample was crushed to 75%
passing 2mm and a 250g split was pulverized to better than 85% passing 75 micron
mesh. Gold was tested by fire assay with atomic absorption finish on a 30g
nominal sample (method GE FAA313), and samples that tested over 10 g/t Au were
retested using 50g screened metallics (GO FAS50M), which uses a combination of
AAS, ICP-AES and gravimetric finishes to determine gold contained in both a fine
and coarse fraction after being sieved through 106 mesh. An additional 35
elements were tested by ICP-AES using a four-acid digestion (method GE ICP40B),
over limit samples for copper were retested using the same technique but with
assay grade four acid digestion and a higher range of detection (method GA
AAS42S). Quality assurance and control (QAQC) is maintained at the lab through
rigorous use of internal standards, blanks and duplicates. An additional QAQC
program was administered by Triumph Gold: at minimum three quality control
samples, consisting of blanks, certified reference standards and duplicates, are
blindly inserted into each 75 sample batch. QAQC samples that return
unacceptable values trigger investigations into the results and reanalyses of
the samples that were tested in the batch with the failed QAQC sample.

Triumph Gold Defines Gold-Rich Breccia Zone at Revenue East
Vancouver, British Columbia --July 31, 2018 -- Triumph Gold Corp.
(TSX-V:TIG)
(OTCQB:TIGCF)
(“Triumph Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the results of spring
and early-summer drilling on the Company’s 100% owned, road accessible, Freegold
Mountain Property in the Yukon Territory. Exploration was focused within a 6 km
soil and geophysical anomaly that surrounds the Revenue and Nucleus resource
areas. Highlights of results available to date include:
Expansion and definition of the Au-Ag-Cu-Mo-rich breccia body (WAu Breccia)
first reported in 2017 (PR#17-12, October 19, 2017). The breccia was intersected
by five additional drill holes including 72.00 metres of 1.33 g/t AuEq* (from
60.00m in RVD18-03), 128.00 metres of 1.27 g/t AuEq* (from 105.00m in RVD18-08),
and 43.02 metres of 1.50 g/t AuEq* (from 62.52m in RVD18-11). Individual sample
intervals have gold concentrations up to 27.2 g/t (Table 1)
Multiple drill intersections of mineralization within the Revenue diatreme (main
breccia body), including 44.00 metres of 1.08 g/t AuEq* (from 198.00m in
RVD18-02), 19.81m of 1.24 g/t AuEq* (from 91.44m in RVD18-10), and 11.00 metres
of 2.04 g/t AuEq* (from 146m in RVD18-10) (Table 2).
WAu Breccia Target
The WAu Au-Ag-Cu-Mo breccia, located near the southeast corner of the Revenue
diatreme, was first intersected by two drill holes in 2011:
RVD11-19 - 1.40 g/t Au, 9.2 g/t Ag, 0.21% Cu and 0.032% Mo over 76.34m
(176.75-253.09m) and
RVD11-28 - 0.86 g/t Au, 10.3 g/t Ag, 0.36% Cu and 0.120% Mo over 41.95m
(208.30-250.25m)
Relogging of core in 2016 identified the high-grade breccia zone as a discrete
body, which was then targeted and intersected in 2017 by a stepout 41 metres
west of RVD11-19:
RVD17-12 - 1.18 g/t Au, 8.3 g/t Ag, 0.24% Cu and 0.013% Mo over 40.0m
(247.50-287.50m)
Modelling of the breccia as an east-west striking, south dipping body helped
successfully target five additional drill holes in 2018 to test the breccia east
of, and both up and down dip from, the original RVD11-19 drill intersection.
These drill holes confirmed the continuity and grade of the breccia over a 130
metre strike length, and to a depth of at least 200 metres (Table 1). The
breccia is open to depth and to the west beneath the Revenue diatreme. Drill
hole locations are shown on Figure 1, and details of location and orientation
are in Table 3.

drilling program.
All securities issued in connection with this financing will be subject to a
statutory four month hold period expiring on November 12, 2018, in accordance
with applicable Canadian securities laws. Upon completion of the private
placement, the Company will have 78,442,638 common shares issued and
outstanding. The Company has agreed to pay cash finder's fees in the aggregate
amount of $31,300 to certain finders in connection with the private placement.
Goldcorp and Palisade Global Investments Ltd., each subscribed for 2,719,674
units and 2,900,000 units, respectively, under the offering. The participation
of each of these insiders is considered to be a “related party transaction” as
defined under TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101
Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”).
The Company determined that an exemption from the formal valuation requirement
of MI 61-101 was available for each related party transaction pursuant to
Section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101. The Company also relied on Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI
61-101 for an exemption from the minority shareholder approval requirement.
The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days in advance
of the closing of the offering, which the Company deems reasonable and necessary
in the circumstances as the closing date of the private placement had not been
established at that time.
