Block VIII Represented by Ministry of Mines and Energy at International Oil Conference in Malaysia

Angkor Resources Corp. (ANK) reported that the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME) presented Block VIII at the International Conference on Energy Security in Malaysia, highlighting the area as a key example of developing Cambodia's new oil and gas sector. The company has completed 350 line-kilometers of 2D seismic data and defined drill targets across four sub-basins: Bokor South, Bokor Central, Bokor North, and Kirirom.

The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has advanced through inter-ministerial review. Additionally, EnerCam is working with the MME on the drilling contractor tender, which requires Ministry approval before publication. The "4+1" drill program contemplates one exploration well in each of the four sub-basins, followed by a fifth well located on the results of wells under a Production Sharing Contract.

Angkor Resources Corp. (ANK) announced in September that its environmental impact assessment (EIA) submission, initially disclosed in May 2026, is progressing through an inter-ministerial review highlighted in July 2026. This latest update confirms the process is advancing toward the contractor tender phase, consistent with previous guidance.

The company disclosed no new financial terms, surprises, or changes to the drilling timeline. The market was already aware of the EIA status and tender preparation.

Angkor Resources Corp. (TSXV: ANK) is an exploration-stage company focused on oil, gas, copper, and gold projects in Cambodia. Its flagship asset is Block VIII, a 4,095 km² onshore oil and gas concession under a 30-year Production Sharing Contract with the Royal Government of Cambodia, which is positioned to host Cambodia's first privately financed onshore exploratory oil and gas wells. The company also holds mineral assets at the Andong Bor and Andong Meas copper-gold licenses, where diamond drilling and trenching programs are actively advancing.
