Tiger Gold Commences Trading in the U.S. on the OTCQB
VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 5, 2026 /CNW/ - Tiger Gold Corp. (TSXV: TIGR) (FRA: D15) (OTCQB: TGRGF) ("Tiger" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its common shares began trading today on the OTCQB Venture Market ("OTCQB") under the symbol TGRGF.
The OTCQB is one of the world's largest and most liquid trading markets, providing access to a wide base of investors across the U.S. The listing marks an important step in expanding Tiger Gold's visibility and strengthening its presence in the U.S. market.
"Listing on the OTCQB represents the achievement of another milestone for Tiger Gold as we expand our U.S. market presence," said Robert Vallis, CEO of Tiger Gold. "We are committed to broadening our shareholder base and believe this is an important next step."
Tiger's Phase 1 drill program at the Quinchía Gold Project commenced in November 2025 and there are now three diamond drill rigs now turning across the project, including two rigs at Tesorito and one rig at Dos Quebradas. Tiger's initial 10,000-metre Phase 1 program includes 6,000 metres at Tesorito designed to improve confidence in the Mineral Resource and to test margins and depth extensions to expand known mineralization. The balance of the Phase 1 program is intended to test additional high-priority targets at Quinchía, as shown in Figure 1.
As shown in Figure 2, the Quinchía Gold Project is located approximately 20 kilometres south of Aris Mining's (TSX:ARIS) Marmato Gold Mine and Collective Mining's (TSX:CNL, NYSE:CNL) Guayabales and San Antonio projects in what is emerging as one of South America's most active districts for gold exploration and development. The Quinchía Gold Project benefits from access and proximity to established infrastructure, including road and rail, as well as clean, lower-cost, renewable hydroelectric grid power.
Quinchía sits in an increasingly proven gold district, and the Company believes the broader system remains under-explored beyond the current resource areas. Over the balance of 2026, drilling and fieldwork will focus on expanding the footprint and prioritising the next set of drill-ready targets.
Mineral Resource and PEA
Quinchía Gold Project PEA
A technical report titled Quinchía Gold Project NI 43-101 Technical Report & Preliminary Economic Assessment, Department of Risaralda, Colombia (effective September 18, 2025) was completed by Ausenco Engineering, Moose Mountain Technical Services, and Aurum Consulting and filed on SEDAR+ on December 10, 2025. The technical report also supports the disclosure of Mineral Resources.
The PEA base case evaluated the Quinchía Gold Project's Miraflores and Tesorito deposits at a US$2,650/oz gold price and US$29.51/oz silver price using a discounted cash flow analysis at a 5% discount rate and, based upon the assumptions set out in the technical report, resulted in a post-tax net present value ("NPV") (5%) of US$534 million, an internal rate of return ("IRR") of 21.3% and a payback period of 3.83 years. Over the 10.2-year mine life, the PEA reported average annual payable production of 138 koz of gold and 104 koz of silver (141 koz gold equivalent), with cash costs of US$1,199/oz Au and all-in sustaining costs of US$1,340/oz Au. The PEA also outlined an upside case at US$3,700/oz Au that yielded a post-tax NPV (5%) of US$1.188 billion and an IRR of 36.5%.
The PEA is, by definition, preliminary in nature and includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA results will be realized. The results of the economic analyses represent forward-looking information and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those presented.
The technical report includes Mineral Resource estimates for the Miraflores and Tesorito deposits with an effective date of July 31, 2025. The Mineral Resources were estimated using CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (2014) ("CIM Standards") and in accordance with CIM Mineral Resources and Mineral Resources Best Practice Guidelines (2019). Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
Miraflores Gold Deposit (effective July 31, 2025)
At a cut-off grade of 1.37 g/t gold equivalent ("AuEq"):
- Measured: 2.8 Mt at 2.75 g/t Au for 0.24 Moz Au, and 2.37 g/t Ag for 0.21 Moz Ag
- Indicated: 3.3 Mt at 2.52 g/t Au for 0.27 Moz Au, and 2.20 g/t Ag for 0.23 Moz Ag
- Measured + Indicated: 6.1 Mt at 2.62 g/t Au for 0.51 Moz Au, and 2.28 g/t Ag for 0.44 Moz Ag
- Inferred: 0.08 Mt at 2.81 g/t Au for 0.01 Moz Au, and 2.54 g/t Ag for 0.01 Moz Ag
Tesorito Gold Deposit (effective July 31, 2025)
At an open-pit cut-off grade of 0.20 g/t Au:
- Inferred: 104 Mt at 0.47 g/t Au for 1.57 Moz Au, and 0.58 g/t Ag for 1.96 Moz Ag
Dos Quebradas Deposit - Historical Estimate
The most recent historical Mineral Resource estimate for the Dos Quebradas deposit was prepared by Resource Development Associates Inc. with an effective date of February 25, 2020, and reported by Los Cerros Limited in accordance with the JORC Code (2012). At a 0.5 g/t Au cut-off grade, the historical estimate was reported as:
- Historical Inferred Mineral Resource: 20.2 Mt at 0.71 g/t Au (459,000 oz Au)
The historical Dos Quebradas estimate was based upon 19 diamond drillholes (8,824 m) drilled on 25 m section spacing, defining mineralisation over a ~400 m by 300 m area from surface to approximately 550 m depth. Mineralisation is hosted within diorite porphyry and intrusive breccias.
The Company cautions that the Dos Quebradas estimate is considered historical in nature and that a qualified person, as defined by NI 43-101, has not done sufficient work to classify this estimate as a current Mineral Resource. Consequently, Tiger is not treating this historical estimate as a current Mineral Resource and they should not be relied upon. Recommended work programs include assaying of historical core to confirm grades, database validation and verification to ensure data integrity, and updated geological modelling to align with current CIM Standards. Tiger considers Dos Quebradas an exploration prospect within the Quinchía Gold Project, with potential requiring further drilling and evaluation.

These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Tiger's views as of any date subsequent to the date of this news release. Although Tiger has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
The factors identified above are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect Tiger. Additional factors are noted under "Risk Factors" in Tiger's public disclosure record, including in the filing statement and other documents available under Tiger's profile on SEDAR+. The forward-looking statements contained in this news release are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. The forward-looking statements included in this news release are made as of the date of this news release and Tiger undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect new information, subsequent events, or otherwise unless required by applicable securities legislation.
Cautionary Note on Non-IFRS Measures
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The Company believes that investors use certain non-IFRS as indicators to assess mining companies and projects. They are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.
"Total cash costs per ounce" and "all-in sustaining costs per ounce", as used in this release, are non-IFRS measures commonly reported by gold mining companies to assess operating performance on a unit of production basis and the ability of a company to generate cash flow from operations. These measures do not have standardized meanings under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. In this context, "total cash costs" consist of operating cash costs plus royalties and offsite charges (refining and transportation). "All-in sustaining costs" consists of total cash costs plus sustaining capital but excludes corporate and administrative costs and share-based compensation.
