Cosigo Resources Announces Acquisition of Conglomerate Layer Bulk Sample for Gravity Concentration Tests and Private Placement
(via TheNewswire)
VICTORIA, CANADA – December 31, 2025 – TheNewswire - Cosigo Resources Ltd. (“Cosigo” or the “Company”) (TSXV: CSG).
Conglomerate Bulk Samples
Cosigo’s field team in recent weeks acquired a 120 kilo bulk sample from outcroppings of “Chicken Coop” conglomerate material for prospecting analysis. The source area is located south of Cosigo’s field camp within the Taraira title. Samples were hand chipped by Company employees supervised by geological consultants and management, packaged securely, and are being forwarded to analytical facilities in Vancouver, Canada.
Cosigo’s geological team, as reported in News Release dated 10 August 2023, located by reconnaissance prospecting outcroppings of conglomerate stratum type material apparently distinct from similar material that had been mined by artisanal miners elsewhere in the area. The News Release included analytical results for 14 channel samples from the 1019 metre strike length of outcroppings. It was announced at that time that further testing of this layer was planned and analyses would be released when available. The samples were subsequently tested by the non-destructive Chrysos assay system by MSA Lab, an accredited laboratory located in BC, Canada.
Analyses for the channel samples are reproduced here for reference purposes:

The Company has not satisfactorily identified the conglomerate as “Chicken Coop” and further work is required. Similar outcroppings have been found along as much as 27 kms of the host ridge and further prospecting and mapping may lead to identification of related quartzite layers that are highly prospective. These may not be Chicken Coop rocks but alternatively may be a wholly different horizon that had not been recognized previously.
The 120 kg sample of apparent “Chicken Coop” conglomerate will be treated by gravity concentration methods: the exact method will be selected in consultation with the lab’s personnel. Separately, a 4 or 5 drill hole campaign to obtain strata samples will be directed to the Taraira Ridge using the Company’s portable drill. Samples will allow better identification, characterization and analysis and remove uncertainties. Further drilling may follow.
Private Placement
The Private Placement of up to CAD$1,000,000, previously announced and initiated on December 10, 2025, comprises Units priced at CAD$0.08 with a full warrant priced at CAD$0.15. Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase an additional common share at a price of CAD$0.15 for a period of 60 months from the date of closing of the Private Placement.
The Private Placement is being offered on a non-brokered basis and all Securities, pursuant to Securities laws in Canada and where applicable, the TSX Venture Exchange Hold Period, will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and a day from the closing date of the Offering. The Company may pay a finder’s fee on a portion of the gross proceeds of the Private Placement that is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to conduct the next level of prospecting, mapping and sampling on the Company’s Taraira property, the Willow Creek, Nevada, property and for general working capital.
Erik Ostensoe, P.Geo., a geological consultant to the Company and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approves the scientific and technical disclosure in this news release.
