Kobo Resources Advances Kossou Toward Resource Definition While
Expanding Gold Mineralisation Beyond Known Structures
• Drilling confirms continued gold mineralisation within established Jagger and Road Cut
Zone structures, including at depth with intersections of 8.0 m at 3.02 g/t Au at the Jagger
Zone (KDD0129) and along the Contact Zone Fault with 6.0 m at 2.59 g/t Au at the Road Cut
Zone (KDD0135)
• New gold-bearing structures were identified both in the footwall of the main Jagger shear
toward the Contact Zone Fault (Structure 7, KDD0134) and along strike at Jagger South
(KDD0127), expanding mineralisation beyond previously defined zones
• Results continue to reinforce the scale of the Kossou’s gold targets as drilling advances
toward resource definition while generating additional high-priority targets
QUEBEC CITY, QC – Kobo Resources Inc. ("Kobo” or the "Company") (TSX.V: KRI) is pleased to report
results from 15 diamond drill holes completed as part of its ongoing drill program at the 100% -owned
Kossou Gold Project (“Kossou”) in Côte d’Ivoire. The latest results confirm continued gold mineralisation
within known structures at the Jagger and Road Cut Zones while also identifying new gold -bearing
structures that expand the mineralised footprint of the project.

Edward Gosselin, CEO and Director of Kobo commented: “These results continue to confirm the strength
and continuity of gold mineralisation within the established Jagger and Road Cut Zone structures,
including meaningful intersections at depth and along the Contact Zone Fault. Importantly, this phase of
drilling has also identified new gold-bearing structures both in the footwall of the main Jagger shear and
along strike to the south, demonstrating that mineralisation at Kossou goes beyond previously defined
zones. Total drilling reported to date at Kossou now exceeds 34,800 m across 192 drill holes, including
diamond and RC drilling. Together, these results expand our target inventory and further support the
scale and growth potential of the Kossou system as we continue advancing toward the resource definition
stage.”
Jagger Zone: Continued Drilling Confirms Mineralisation at Depth and Along Strike
Drilling at the Jagger Zone continued with 11 additional holes completed across approximately 700 m
of strike, testing continuity within the main Jagger structural corridor and mineralisation at depth.
Deeper drilling continues to confirm gold mineralisation well below previously tested levels. On section
JZ650, KDD0133 intersected 2.0 m at 7.79 g/t Au approximately 200 m below surface, while KDD0136
on Section JZ700 returned 6.0 m at 1.10 g/t Au at a depth of approximately 210 m, confirming continuity
of mineralised structures at depth.
Along strike, KDD0129 on Section JZ550 returned multiple intersections, including 8.0 m at 3.02 g/t Au
from 285.0 m, extending mineralisation within the core of the Jagger Shear Zone. Additional
intersections, including 5.0 m at 1.10 g/t Au from 364.0 m, confirm that Structure 6 extends to depths
exceeding 250 m below surface. Further confirmation of depth continuity was provided by KDD0126 on
Section JZ500, which intersected 15.0 m at 0.90 g/t Au from 189.0 m, including 10.0 m at 1.16 g/t Au.
All mineralised zones remain open to depth within the Jagger Shear system.
Drill hole KDD0134 (section JZ650) tested a gold in soil geochemical target on the east of the main drill
area, footwall to the Jagger Shear structure and successfully intersected 6.0 m at 1.09 g/t Au from 11.0
m, including 3.0 m at 1.91 g/t Au, tentatively named “Structure 7” (see Figure 1). This suggests
additional gold bearing shear zones are present towards the Contact Zone Fault (“CZ Fault”). Based on
successful drilling of this contact in the Road Cut Zone, this hole provides confirmation of gold
mineralisation in a similar stratigraphic location and will require additional drilling to advance this concept.

Road Cut Zone: Drilling Confirms Depth Extension and Contact Zone Fault Mineralisation

Drilling at the Road Cut Zone focused on two priority targets: the main shear previously intersected on
section RCZ700 and gold mineralisation associated with the Contact Zone Fault and adjacent shear
structures on section RCZ300.

Two drill holes are reported from this phase. In the southern portion of the zone, KDD0131 (section
RCZ650), intersected 6.0 m at 2.55 g/t Au from 165.0 m, extending mineralisation to depth.
Further north, KDD0135 (section RCZ300) was drilled to test the northern extension of mineralisation
along the Contact Zone Fault. In addition to near-surface intersections, the hole intersected 6.0 m at
2.59 g/t Au from 202.0 m, including 3.0 m at 4.48 g/t Au, confirming strong gold mineralisation
associated with the fault. This intersection extends known mineralisation by approximately 150 m to the
north and supports the Contact Zone Fault as a significant mineralised control at Road Cut, with
additional drilling planned to define its extent (see Figures 4 and 5).
