New results and con9nued drill program to advance Target 01 toward a maiden NI 43-101 mineral
resource es9mate
Toronto, Ontario – September 2, 2026 – Kuya Silver Corpora/on (CSE: KUYA) (OTCQB: KUYAF) (FSE: 6MR1)
(the “Company” or “Kuya Silver”) is pleased to report new diamond drill assay results from Targets 01, 02
and 03 at the Umm-Hadid Project in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with the principal results and ongoing
resource-defini/on work focused on Target 01. The Umm Hadid project is owned by Silver Mining LLC, a
joint venture between Sumou Holding and Kuya Silver . The results reported in this release are new and
were not included in the Company’s December 22, 2025 news release, and include results from the la\er
part of the 2025 program which were received in 2026, as well as new drilling results completed this year.
The Target 01 new results form part of the ongoing 10,000-metre drill program. The program is designed
to define the con/nuity, geometry and grade distribu/on of the silver -gold vein system and support
delivery of a maiden mineral resource es/mate and accompanying Na/onal Instrument 43-101 technical
report. APEX Geoscience Ltd. (“APEX”) has been appointed to complete the mineral resource es/mate and
NI 43-101 technical report and is currently providing drilling op/miza/on advice as results are received
and interpreted.
Drill Highlights:
• Hole 26-UH-004: 26.10 m grading 77.8 g/t silver and 0.14 g/t gold from 64.45 to 90.55 m, including
0.30 m grading 3,779 g/t silver and 6.35 g/t gold; and a separate 2.10 m grading 178.5 g/t silver
and 0.51 g/t gold from 152.75 to 154.85 m.
• Hole 26-UH-006: 9.17 m grading 137.1 g/t silver and 0.13 g/t gold from 71.00 to 80.17 m, including
1.20 m grading 959.8 g/t silver and 0.54 g/t gold, which includes 0.30 m grading 3,656 g/t silver
and 1.99 g/t gold.
• Hole 26-UH-002: 12.05 m grading 151.5 g/t silver and 0.26 g/t gold from 70.00 to 82.05 m,
including 1.39 m grading 576.0 g/t silver and 0.31 g/t gold, and 0.31 m grading 2,960 g/t silver and
8.23 g/t gold.
• Hole 26-UH-009: 2.23 m grading 421.9 g/t silver and 0.95 g/t gold from 36.94 to 39.17 m, including
1.35 m grading 695.8 g/t silver and 1.35 g/t gold, which includes 0.32 m grading 2,635 g/t silver
and 4.09 g/t gold.
• Hole 25-UH-037: 4.00 m grading 112.9 g/t silver and 1.44 g/t gold from 33.00 to 37.00 m, including
3.00 m grading 134.4 g/t silver and 1.92 g/t gold.

Summary of Drilling Results
A total of 59 diamond drill holes represen/ng approximately 11,373.5 meters has been drilled up to date.
This total comprises 5,135.62 meters in 29 holes previously reported in December 2025 and 6,237.88
meters in 30 addi/onal holes from 25-UH-030 through 26-UH-016A whose new assay results are reported
here. The current 10,000-metre Target 01 program remains ongoing; consequently, these results represent
an interim dataset and addi/onal drilling and assays are pending.
The current resource-defini/on work is focused on Target 01. Target 01 covers an approximately 4.5 km by
2.5 km area containing mul/ple northwest-trending veins and faults with subordinate northeast-trending
splays hosted predominantly by granodiorite. Drilling is being progressively refined using geological,
structural and assay informa/on, with APEX providing independent resource-focused drilling op/miza/on
advice.
The mineralized intervals reported herein occur at depths ranging from approximately 16 to 131 meters
below surface, with an average depth of approximately 58 meters.
Osbaldo Zamora, Kuya Silver’s Vice President of Explora/on, commented: “These new results confirm that
Target 01 hosts mul/ple high-grade silver-gold structures and demonstrate that higher grades occur across
several drill sec/ons rather than in a single isolated intercept. The ongoing program is now focused on
establishing con/nuity and collec/ng the geological and structural informa/on required for resource
modelling. With APEX already engaged and ac/vely advising on drill op/miza/on, we are aligning each
new hole with the objec/ve of delivering a robust maiden NI 43-101 mineral resource es/mate as the next
step in this promising silver-gold discovery.”

Update To Previously Reported Results
Updated overlimit assays strengthen previously reported results from the December 2025 program. At
Target 03, hole 25-UH-029 returned 2.00 m grading 624.0 g/t silver and 0.85 g/t gold from 27.00 to 29.00
m. At Target 02, the previously reported high-grade intercept in hole 25-UH-018 occurs within a broader
12.00 m interval grading 100.7 g/t silver and 0.51 g/t gold from 85.00 to 97.00 m. These are restated
results and are not included in the table of new results above.

Target 01 Resource-Defini5on Strategy
The 2026 10,000-metre program is focused primarily on Target 01 and is intended to:
• Test strike and dip con/nuity of the principal silver-gold structures;
• Provide sufficient geological, structural, density and assay informa/on to support three -
dimensional wireframing and resource es/ma/on;
• Iden/fy and close material drilling gaps while avoiding unnecessary duplica/on;
• Improve confidence in the distribu/on of higher-grade shoots; and
• Provide the technical basis for a maiden mineral resource es/mate and NI 43-101 technical report
APEX has been appointed as the independent technical consultant for the mineral resource es/mate and
NI 43-101 technical report. APEX is presently reviewing results and interpreta/ons and providing advice to
op/mize the remaining drill program for resource-es/ma/on objec/ves.
Subsequent drilling will remain focused on Target 01 un/l the drilling required for the maiden resource
es/mate is completed. Following comple/on of the Target 01 resource-es/ma/on program, the Company
intends to return to Targets 02 and 03 for follow-up drilling and further evalua/on of the mineralized
structures iden/fied to date.
Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC)
Drill core (HQ) samples were collected under the supervision of an experienced Silver Mining geologists
and transported safely to a core logging facility for detailed logging and sampling. Samples were prepared
using half core and securely shipped to Bureau Veritas Laboratories in Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
for sample prepara/on, and analysis.
All samples were analyzed using four-acid diges/on ICP-ES (code MA300) with Fire Assay and Gravimetric
Finish (cores FA 430 and FA530, respec/vely) and standard industry procedures.
As part of the Company’s QA/QC protocols, a robust quality control program was implemented, which
includes the inser/on of cer/fied reference materials (standards), blank samples, and duplicate samples
at regular intervals (approximately every 10 samples) throughout the sample stream. All QA/QC control
samples returned results within acceptable limits, ensuring the reliability of the assay data.
