TRIDENT RESOURCES CORP. ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC REBRAND AND ENGAGES INDEPENDENT TRADING GROUP AS MARKET MAKER

Trident Resources Corp. has rebranded to a name that reflects the transformational three-way transaction consolidating Rockridge and MAS Gold's high-grade gold and copper assets in Saskatchewan with Eros's strong balance sheet, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the company.

This strategic rebrand underscores Trident's focus on gold and copper markets through a portfolio of highly prospective assets with historical mining, historical resources and significant exploration upside on a regional scale. The new company will focus on the Contact Lake and Greywacke gold projects, located in the La Ronge gold belt, as well as the Knife Lake copper project, also located in Saskatchewan, Canada. The company's newly redesigned website is now live, featuring updated investor materials that reflect Trident's expanded focus on its portfolio of advanced-stage exploration assets host to gold and copper resources.

Jon Wiesblatt, chief executive officer of Trident, commented: "Trident Resources now boasts historical, high-grade gold and copper resources in a relatively underexplored greenstone belt in Canada. The opportunity to build a new, emerging gold and copper company is excellent given the current historical mineral global resources of over one million ounces gold and over 200 million pounds copper. Furthermore, there is the potential to unlock additional value through exploration in a new major mining camp, which is very exciting for the company and its shareholders. Trident has consolidated ownership in three notable gold and copper projects, has assembled a very capable geological and management team, and is supported by a strong balance sheet to generate significant value for its shareholders going forward."
