AsiaBaseMetals Adopts Semi-Annual

Reporting

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 28, 2026) -

AsiaBaseMetals Inc. (TSXV: ABZ)

("AsiaBaseMetals" or the "Company") announces that it has elected to rely on the exemptions provided

in CSA Coordinated Blanket Order 51-933 - Exemption to Permit Semi-Annual Reporting for Certain

Venture Issuers.

Accordingly, the Company will no longer file interim financial reports and related management's

discussion and analysis ("MD&A") for the first and third quarter interim periods as required by National

Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations.

The Company is eligible for this voluntary exemption as a venture issuer listed on the TSX Venture

Exchange, having its head office in British Columbia, and having annual revenue of no more than $10

million in its most recently completed financial year.

The Company will not file an interim financial report and related MD&A for the third quarter ending June

30, 2026.

The Company will now focus on filing annual financial statements and semi-annual interim financial

reports (covering the six-month period) and related MD&A, which will provide more efficient, cost-

effective reporting while maintaining compliance with all continuous disclosure requirements.
