Exploration and Drilling Services (Pty) Ltd.
Toronto, Ontario – July 15, 2026 – One Bullion Ltd. (“One Bullion” or the “Company”) (TSXV:
OBUL), a gold exploration company holding complete ownership of three highly prospective
exploration projects in Botswana, today announced an exploration update highlighting progress
across its Botswana gold exploration portfolio.
The Company has achieved several key milestones, including the completion of geophysical
surveying at Vumba, continued advancement of exploration at Maitengwe, and the full funding of
its inaugural drill campaign, which is scheduled to commence August 2026.
“The completion of geophysics at Vumba, strong progress at Maitengwe, and the execution of our
drilling contract mark key milestones as we transition from target generation into drilling,” said
Adam Berk, Chief Executive Officer of One Bullion. “Our technical team is integrating the newly
acquired geophysical data with several years of exploration results to refine and prioritize the
highest-quality drill targets. With funding secured and drilling scheduled to begin in August 2026,
we are excited to commence this important phase and test the exploration potential of our
Botswana portfolio.”
Highlights
• Completed the high-resolution geophysical survey at the Vumba Gold Project, an
important milestone in advancing one of Botswana’s underexplored greenstone belts
• Geophysical survey at the Maitengwe Gold Project approximately 40% complete and
progressing as planned
• Executed a diamond drilling contract with Mindea Exploration and Drilling Services (Pty)
Ltd. for the initial phase of drilling in Botswana, with mobilization expected by August 2026
• Maiden program of approximately 3,000 meters of HQ diamond drilling scheduled to
commence in August 2026
• Entire ~3,000-meter drill program fully funded
• Newly acquired geophysical data being integrated with the Company’s extensive historical
geological, geochemical and structural datasets to refine and prioritize drill targets
Geophysical Surveys at Vumba and Maitengwe
The Company has successfully completed its high- resolution geophysical survey at the Vumba
Gold Project, marking an important milestone in advancing one of Botswana’s underexplored
greenstone belts. Geophysical surveys of this nature help to map stratigraphy and structures ,
delineating potential mineralized targets that are either not evident at surface, or where surface
expression is too obscured by cover to identify trends. This enables more accurate drill targeting
and improving the probability of exploration success.
At the Maitengwe Gold Project, geophysical surveying is progressing well, with approximately
40% of the program now completed. Data acquisition continues as planned, and the Company
expects the survey to provide valuable information to refine and prioritize drill targets across the
project.
As geophysical data is received, One Bullion’s technical team , including interpretation and
insights from Campbell & Walker Geophysics, has begun processing and interpret ing the
magnetic data for integration into the Company’s extensive historical geological datasets. This
work is expected to further enhance target definition ahead of future drilling campaigns across
both project areas.
Maiden Drill Program
In preparation for drilling, the Company has executed a drilling contract with Mindea Exploration
and Drilling Services (Pty) Ltd. to conduct the initial phase of diamond drilling in Botswana. Under
the agreement, mobilization is expected to begin by August 2026, with drilling commencing shortly
thereafter.
The inaugural program will consist of approximately 3,000 meters of HQ diamond drilling,
scheduled to commence in August 2026. HQ-diameter core has been selected to maximize core
recovery, geological logging quality and structural interpretation, providing the technical team with
high-quality samples for geological, geotechnical and future metallurgical evaluation.
Importantly, the entire 3,000 meter drill program is fully funded, allowing the Company to execute
the campaign without requiring additional financing.
Next Steps
The Company’s exploration strategy continues to focus on systematically advancing its highly
prospective land package through modern exploration techniques, disciplined target generation
and phased drilling programs designed to maximize discovery potential.
Further updates will be provided as the company’s exploration program advances.
