St. Augustine Gold and Copper Limited Announces Update on Financing Discussions
Manila, April 14, 2026 — St. Augustine Gold and Copper Limited (TSX:SAU) (“ St. Augustine ” or the
“Company”) is pleased to provide the following corporate update in connection with its ongoing evaluation of
development priorities and capital planning activities relating to the Kingking Copper-Gold Project (the
“Project”).
As part of the ordinary course of managing its business and assessing future development pathways, the
Company regularly reviews a range of technical, regulatory, operational and financial considerations relevant
to the Project. In this context, from time to time and in the course of evaluating strategic and development
alternatives, it has engaged in and continues to engage in discussions with a range of public and private
financial institutions, strategic counterparties and other potential sources of capital.
These discussions may, among other things, encompass high-level considerations relating to funding
approaches that are typically associated with large-scale mining projects, including work that could ultimately
support the preparation of a Definitive Feasibility Study (the “DFS”). While such discussions continue to be
undertaken, the Company emphasizes that it has not made any determination to pursue any specific
financing transaction or development pathway at this time and there is no assurance that any future
financing or development initiative will be pursued or completed.
