KORE ANNOUNCES REINSTATEMENT OF TRADING AND
CORPORATE UPDATES
Vancouver, BC – September 24 , 2025 – KORE Mining Ltd. (TSXV: KORE) (“ KORE” or the
“Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its reinstatement to trading on the TSX Venture Exchange
(the “Exchange”), and corporate updates.
Reinstatement to Trading on the Exchange
KORE announces that, following the successful resolution of the Failure-to-File Cease Trade Order issued
by the British Columbia Commission (the "BCSC") on July 18, 2025, and revoked by the BCSC on August
5, 2025, the Exchange has accepted the Company’s application for reinstatement to trading. The Company’s
common shares (the “Common Shares”) are expected to be reinstated to trading on the TSXV under the
current ticker symbol of KORE in the coming days, subject to final confirmation of the Exchange.
Working capital deficiency
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficiency, as detailed in the condensed interim
consolidated financial statement for six months ended June 30, 2025 available to review at
www.sedarplus.ca. Following the reinstatement, the Company intends to complete a non-brokered private
placement of Common Shares to improve its financial position and address the deficiency.
Notwithstanding that this item has previously been disclosed in financial statements of the Company , the
Exchange has requested that the Company provide these disclosures in connection with KORE’s
reinstatement review process with the Exchange, all in accordance with TSXV policies.
Loan Agreement
KORE discloses that on August 23, 2023, it entered into a loan agreement with Karus Gold Corp. (the
“Karus”), a related party at the time due to a common director, James Hynes. The Loan Agreement, which
was subject to the Exchange’s acceptance and disclosed in KORE’s interim and annual filings, provided
KORE with loans totaling US$225,000 (the “Principal Amount”), non-interest-bearing until the maturity
date of October 12, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”). As the Principal Amount was not repaid by the Maturity
Date, the Company issued a promissory note to Karus on August 23, 2023. Under the promissory note, the
Principal Amount bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum until fully repaid. During the year ended
December 31, 2024, Karus demanded repayment. The Company is in the process of negotiating a settlement
with Karus. As at June 30, 2025, the outstanding loan balance , including accrued interest, was
CAD$359,699. At the time of the Loan Agreement, James Hynes served as a director of both the Company
and Karus, rendering the transaction a related party transaction under applicable securities laws. Mr. Hynes
resigned from all positions with Karus on March 13, 2024.
This disclosure is being reiterated as part of KORE’s reinstatement review process with the Exchange, in
accordance with TSXV policies, to ensure full compliance and transparency with shareholders regarding
previously reported financial obligations.

TSXV - KORE
The Company also announces that further to its news release dated August 9, 2025 , it has received the
Exchange approval to consolidate all of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares on the
basis of one (1) new Common Share for every five (5) outstanding Common Shares (the “Consolidation”).
The effective date of the Common Shares on a post-Consolidation basis on the Exchange is expected to be
on or about September 29, 2025 (the “ Record Date ”). The new ISIN/CUSIP number assigned to the
Common Shares following the Consolidation will be CA50067K3082/ 50067K308, respectively. The
Company does not intend to change its current name of “Kore Mining Ltd.” or its current trading symbol
of “KORE” in connection with the proposed Consolidation.
The Consolidation is expected to result in the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares being
reduced from 202,426,357 outstanding Common Shares to approximately 40,485,271 new Common Shares
(subject to any differences due to rounding). No fractional Common Shares will be issued as a result of the
Consolidation. Any fractional share less than one -half of a Common Share will be cancelled, and any
fractional share equal to or greater than one -half will be rounded up to the nearest whole sha re. In
calculating such fractional interests, all Common Shares held by a beneficial holder shall be aggregated.
No cash consideration will be paid in respect of fractional shares. The exercise or conversion price and the
number of Common Shares issuable under any of the Company’s outstanding convertible securities will be
proportionately adjusted upon the Consolidation.
Shareholders of the Company as at the Record Date will receive a letter of transmittal providing instructions
for the exchange of existing share certificate(s) evidencing pre -Consolidation Common Shares for new
share certificate(s) representing the number of post -Consolidation Common Shares to which they are
entitled, as soon as practicable following Record Date.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and the Articles of the
Company, the Consolidation was approved by way of resolutions passed by the board of directors of the
Company.
