PRESS RELEASE OCTOBER 8, 2025
Kobo Resources Intersects 17.0 m at 3.87 g/t Au, Further Defining
High-Grade Gold Mineralisation at its Kossou Gold Project
• High-grade gold intercepts confirm strong continuity at the Road Cut Zone with multiple
parallel shears traced along the Contact Zone Fault
• Drilling continues to expand mineralisation at the Jagger Zone, confirming gold-bearing
shears to depths exceeding 240 m and reinforcing the strength of Kobo’s structural model
• Ongoing 12,000–15,000 m program advancing toward Kobo’s maiden Mineral Resource
Estimate, with two rigs active and geological modelling underway across priority targets
QUEBEC CITY, QC – Kobo Resources Inc. ("Kobo” or the "Company") (TSX.V: KRI) is pleased to report
additional diamond drill results from the Jagger and Road Cut Zones at its 100% -owned Kossou Gold
Project (“Kossou”) in Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa. The new results continue to confirm strong continuity of
high-grade gold mineralisation at Kossou and enhance the Company’s confidence in the emerging scale
and potential of its highly prospective target areas.
Diamond Drill Results – Highlights:
Road Cut Zone:
• KDD0095
o 17.0 metres (“m”) at 3.87 g/t Au from 22.0, including 9.0 m at 6.84 g/t Au, from 23.0
m
• KDD0098
o 6.0 m at 1.48 g/t Au from 157.0 m
• KDD0099
o 5.0 m at 2.82 g/t Au from 170.0 m (Contact Zone Target)
Jagger Zone
• KDD0096
o 4.0 m at 1.48 g/t Au from 21.0 m
o 3.0 m at 2.34 g/t Au from 31.0 m
o 5.0 m at 1.41 g/t Au from 106.0 m
• KDD0097
o 4.0 m at 2.30 g/t Au from 240.0 m
o 6.0 m at 1.52 g/t Au from 350.0 m
These results represent the first six holes from Kobo’s ongoing 12,000–15,000 m diamond drilling program
launched on September 4, 2025. The current campaign is focused on systematically expanding known
mineralized zones at the Jagger and Road Cut Zones while testing the interpreted structural corridor that
links them. Drilling is also continuing to evaluate the Contact Zone Fault “(CZ Fault”), an important regional
structure believed to provide deep fluid pathways for gold mineralisation at Kossou.

Edward Gosselin, CEO and Director of Kobo commented: “The latest intersections continue to demonstrate
the strength of gold mineralisation within the Road Cut and Jagger structural zones. These results are
confirming the continuity of gold-bearing shears and the importance of the Contact Zone Fault as a potential
regional control on mineralisation. Particularly, the consistency of gold mineralisation at the Jagger Zone,
from surface to greater than 180 m depth, highlights the continuity and strength of the system .” He
continued: “Ongoing drilling will allow us to further test these controls, define extensions along strike and
at depth, and continue building a comprehensive geological model for Kossou as we progress toward a
maiden Resource Estimate on the project.”
Road Cut Zone Highlights
KDD0095, KDD0098, and KDD0099 were drilled along a 150-metre strike length on Sections RCZ500,
RCZ600, and RCZ650 (see Figure 1 for drill-hole locations). Full assay results are presented in Table 1.
The most significant intersection was returned from KDD0095 on Section RCZ500, averaging 17.0 m at
3.87 g/t Au from 22.0 m, including 9.0 m at 6.84 g/t Au from 23.0 m (see Figure 2 and Figure 3). This
intercept occurs approximately 20 m beneath artisanal workings and is hosted within a shear zone
previously intersected in KDD0012 (11.0 m at 1.71 g/t Au) and KDD0091 (15.55 m at 2.30 g/t Au). The
shear zone parallels the main CZ Fault and lies roughly 60 m west of this structure, suggesting a close
spatial and structural relationship.

KDD0098, drilled on Section RCZ600, intersected 6.0 m at 1.48 g/t Au from 157.0 m within a shear
zone exhibiting typical alteration and quartz veining approximately 12.0 m from the CZ Fault. The
mineralisation occurs about 120.0 m below surface. Several additional lower-grade intervals were also
intersected within 50.0 m of the CZ Fault in sheared basalt (see Figure 4).

KDD0099, located approximately 50 m south of KDD0098 on Section RCZ650, intersected 5.0 m at 2.82
g/t Au from 170.0 m directly on the CZ Fault, confirming the presence of gold mineralisation along
this important regional structure (see Figure 5).

The intensity of shearing, alteration and quartz veining in the three drill holes in the vicinity of the artisanal
mine and CZ Fault is very encouraging for further gold mineralisation and will be further tested with
additional diamond drilling.
Jagger Zone Highlights
KDD0094, KDD0096, and KDD0097 were drilled on Section JZ600 to evaluate the core mineralisation
previously identified and to test the continuity of Structure JZ6 near surface and at depth (see Figures 6
and 7).
KDD0096 intersected 5.0 m at 1.41 g/t Au associated with Structure JZ6, approximately 65 m below
surface. KDD0097, which targeted the 8.0 m at 3.72 g/t Au intersection in KDD0028 at depth, returned 2.0

m at 0.58 g/t Au. Drilling confirms that well-defined shears extend to at least 240 m below surface, with
gold grades corresponding to the density of quartz veining within these structures.
Additional intersections of 4.0 m at 2.30 g/t Au and 6.0 m at 1.52 g/t Au in KDD0097, associated with
Structures JZ1 and JZ4 respectively, demonstrate good continuity between 150 m and 180 m depth along
the shear zones. These results further validate the Company’s structural model, indicating that gold
mineralisation is hosted within a series of steep, westerly dipping shears closely associated with quartz-
feldspar porphyry and diorite intrusives within the basaltic volcanic sequence.
