Pelangio Exploration Extends High-Grade Gold Shoot 150-meters North at Manfo, Ghana: 26-meters of 2.99 g/t Au Including 6-meters of 11.74 g/t Au

Pelangio’s Manfo Extension drill results highlight high-grade gold intersections, though the company faces liquidity pressures as cash burn exceeds capital raises.

Executive Summary
  • The most recent release (June 15, 2026) reports drill hole SPDD26-008 at the 100%-owned Manfo Project's Pokukrom East deposit, extending the high-grade gold shoot 150 meters north.
  • The intercept returned 26 meters of 2.99 g/t Au (un-cut), including 6 meters of 11.74 g/t Au and 2 meters of 27.95 g/t Au.
  • Management states the mineralization remains open and could significantly expand the existing resource, with true thickness estimated at 83% of core length.
  • The Manfo resource extensional drilling program is 77% complete, with completion expected in July.
  • Future plans include step-out and infill drilling to quantify northern, southern, and down-dip extensions, followed by a transition to the Dankran property.
Material Impact
  • The results are a positive confirmation of the resource growth narrative established in the September 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE), which reported 441,000 oz Indicated and 396,000 oz Inferred.
  • Extending the high-grade shoot 150 meters north is geologically meaningful and supports the company's staged $7.6M exploration program.
  • However, the news is incremental and expected as part of the ongoing 2,900m diamond drilling campaign. It does not represent a sudden, unexpected market-moving event, but rather validates the geological model and confirms down-plunge continuity.
  • The intercept sits above the bottom of a conceptual pit optimized at a $2,600/oz gold price, reinforcing near-term mining potential.
  • The news aligns with management's guidance to transition drilling to Dankran after Manfo completion, followed by CSEM surveys.
