Executive Summary

  • Banyan Gold reports multiple high‑grade gold intercepts from its 2025 exploration program on the AurMac Project, including several >10 g/t Au intervals and a standout 26.35 g/t Au over 0.5 m in the Aurex Hill zone.
  • The results support the company’s view that the Airstrip and Aurex Hill areas are suitable for starter pits and may enable expansion of existing resource models.
  • Core from the drill program will be displayed at the AMEBC Roundup (Jan 28‑29, 2026), providing investors an opportunity to inspect the high‑grade material firsthand.
