Trigon Reports 8m of 6.56% Copper Extending Open Pit Mineralization, Namibia

TORONTO, November 11, 2021 - Trigon Metals Inc. (TSXV:TM) ("Trigon" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that recent drilling has unexpectedly intercepted high-grade mineralization that has the potential to increase both the resource tonnes and deposit grade.

Geotechnical drill testing of the rock conditions around the planned open pits was completed to confirm rock stability for mine design purposes. Core from these holes, outside of the currently designed pit shells, the core in the holes showed visible mineralization and were sent to be assayed.

Four of the geotechnical holes contained significant amounts of copper, representing the potential for an increase of tonnage, of grade and of the life of the open mine.

Highlights of the drill results are as follows:

• Hole (GTBH010): 8m intersection of 6.56% Cu which includes 5m of 9.15% Cu @ (66-74m).
• Hole (GTBH010): 3m intersection of 1.36% Cu @(89-92m).
• Hole (GTBH004): 2m intersections of 1.2% Cu @(57-59m) and 1.4 % Cu @(75-77m).
• Hole (GTBH013): 4m intersection of 1.72% Cu which includes 2m of 3.3% Cu @(57-61m).
• Hole (BH21-09): 2m intersection of 1.27% Cu @(52-54m).

The holes were completed in September and confirmed the ground stability conditions, this data has been used in the design of our planned open pits. Assays for the holes with visible mineralization have just been received.

Commenting, Jed Richardson, President and CEO of Trigon, said, "These results illustrate the additional potential of the Kombat Mine and represent only a fraction of the 30 kilometres of strike length within the Company's property.

About Kombat Mine

The Kombat Copper Project is the flagship project of Trigon Metals Inc., with the Company's mining and prospecting licence areas covering an area of more than 7,500 ha in the Otavi Mountainlands in Namibia. The Kombat Project is comprised of three mining licences, which produced approximately 12.46 million tonnes of Copper between 1962 and 2008, at a grade of 2.62%. The other two mining licences are within close proximity to Kombat at Gross Otavi and Harasib, which are believed to be highly prospective for Lead and Zinc. In addition, the Company also holds an interest in two exclusive prospecting licences, which represent a potential strike extension of Kombat.
