Kobo Resources Strengthens Gold Mineralisation at Kossou Intersecting 9.0 m at 3.60 g/t Au and 8.0 m at 2.54 g/t Au

None

Executive Summary

On November 20, 2025, Kobo Resources announced additional diamond drill results from its flagship Kossou Gold Project in Côte d'Ivoire. The results are from 12 holes totaling 2,755 metres at the Jagger and Road Cut Zones.

Key highlights from the release include: - Jagger Zone: - KDD0111: 9.0 metres (m) at 3.60 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) - KDD0113: 8.0 m at 2.54 g/t Au - KDD0110: 8.0 m at 2.82 g/t Au and two near-surface intercepts of 6.0 m at 1.81 g/t Au and 6.0 m at 1.77 g/t Au. - Road Cut Zone: - KDD0112: 5.0 m at 3.42 g/t Au - KDD0118: 4.0 m at 3.47 g/t Au

CEO Edward Gosselin stated that the results provide further confidence in the geological model and strengthen the resource potential the company is defining at the Jagger and Road Cut zones. He also noted that the company is evaluating new targets on the western part of the permit and at the newly discovered Kadie Zone artisanal workings, with less than 25% of the license having been systematically explored.

Material Impact

This news is a routine, positive update on the company's ongoing exploration program. The drill results are solid, demonstrating good grades over respectable widths, and they successfully expand the known mineralized areas.

  • Consistency: The results, such as 9.0 m at 3.60 g/t Au, are consistent with the series of positive results reported throughout 2025 (e.g., 10.0 m @ 2.50 g/t Au on Oct 30; 10.0m @ 3.20 g/t Au on Mar 3). While not as spectacular as the standout intercepts from October 8 (17.0 m @ 3.87 g/t Au) or January 13 (11.0 m @ 6.77 g/t Au), they are economically significant and contribute positively to the overall project.
  • Strategy Execution: The results align perfectly with the company's stated strategy of systematically drilling its key targets to build towards a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE). Each successful hole de-risks the project incrementally and adds potential ounces to the future resource. The company is doing exactly what it said it would do with the proceeds from its September 2025 financing.
  • Market Reaction: Given the stock's recent downtrend to a 52-week low, this positive but not game-changing news is unlikely to cause a major breakout. However, it should provide some fundamental support at these lower price levels and reassure investors that the exploration story remains intact.

The news confirms the geological thesis and adds value, but it is an incremental step, not a transformative one. It keeps the company on track without materially changing the timeline or the ultimate potential of the project based on a single announcement.

Its flagship asset is the 100%-owned Kossou Gold Project, which is strategically located adjacent to one of the region's largest operating gold mines. The company has been aggressively exploring Kossou, focusing on several key targets including the Jagger, Road Cut, and Kadie zones, along a 9-kilometre gold-in-soil anomaly. The current objective is to delineate a maiden mineral resource. Kobo also holds the earlier-stage Kotobi project and has several earn-in agreements to expand its regional footprint.
