About this update from Galleon Gold Corp

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2026) - Galleon Gold Corp. (TSXV: GGO) (OTCQX: GGOXF) (FSE: 3H90) (the "Company" or "Galleon Gold") is pleased to announce the first set of drill results from the 2026 drill program at its 100% owned West Cache Gold Project (the "Project" or "West Cache") in Timmins, Ontario. The initial holes of the planned 18,000-meter drilling program were designed to test the down-dip extension of Zone #9 mineralization beneath the planned bulk sample stopes and investigate the geological controls on mineralization within the South Zone, which is directly to the south of Zone #9 and in close proximity to the planned bulk sample ramps. Five (5) holes with complete assay reporting are included in this press release, as well as partial results from two (2) holes. Zone #9 Highlights South Zone Highlights "We are very pleased with these initial drill results, which confirm grade continuity below our planned bulk sample stope areas, as well as within the upper portions of Zone #9 near surface. In addition, the footwall and hanging wall of Zone #9 are consistently returning broad intervals grading 1 to 3 g/t gold surrounding a higher-grade core. These mineralized envelopes become increasingly significant in the current gold market," said David Russell, CEO of Galleon Gold. "We are just starting to scratch the surface in understanding the South Zone but are pleased to see the numerous mineralized intervals are being encountered at the predicted depths." Overview of the Drill Holes Holes WC-26-234 and WC-26-235 were designed to test both Zone #9 and the South Zones. The Zone #9 targets were aimed at evaluating mineralization down dip from the four stopes that comprise the Company's 86,500-tonne bulk sample program. Results from these holes indicate continuity of mineralization in this area and suggest that additional development could yield results comparable to those anticipated from the bulk sample. These holes were extended beyond the Zone #9 footwall so that they intersected mineralization within the Upper South Zones. Assay results for the South Zone intercepts are currently pending. The Upper South Zones have shown continuity along strike and down-dip and are within 50-meters of the planned bulk sample ramps. The Company began the 2026 drilling program with the Sou...
