Stellar Africagold Updates ON Tichka EST GOLD Project, Morocco and Zuénoula GOLD Project, Côte D’Ivoire

Corporate Updates

STELLAR AFRICAGOLD UPDATES ON TICHKA EST GOLD PROJECT, MOROCCO AND

ZUÉNOULA GOLD PROJECT, CÔTE D’IVOIRE

Vancouver, British Columbia – May 5, 2025 – Stellar AfricaGold Inc. (TSX-V: SPX) ("Stellar" or the

"Company") is pleased to provide updates on its Tichka Est Gold Project in Morocco and its Zuénoula

Gold Project in Côte d’Ivoire.

Tichka Est Gold Project – Morocco

All exploration activities at the Tichka Est Gold Project are proceeding as planned. All activities are on

schedule and on budget.

Stellar has an ongoing mapping, prospecting and sampling program focussed initially at the region of

the Zone B gold discovery and thereafter expanding to the other regions of the Tichka Ext permits

group.

Infrastructure improvements are ahead of schedule. Rehabilitation of the Company’s 8.5-kilometer

access road from the 2,000-meter starting point to the 2,500-meter level of Structure B is complete.

Additional new road works to other areas of interest across the permit area has commenced.

Once access road construction is substantially advanced the heavy equipment on site will be

redirected to additional mechanical trenching across known and projected areas of mineralization.

Stellar is particularly pleased to welcome to the team consulting structural geologist David Selley of

Base Instinct Geological Consultants who commenced on-site work at Tichka Ext May 4, 2025. Dr.

Selly is conducting an in-depth structural assessment of Tichka Est’s known mineralized zones

particularly focusing on Structure B zone. His conclusions will assist in refining the Tichka Est

geological model.

All of these current exploration activities, the trenching, mapping, sampling and structural assessment,

are essential preparatory steps which are leading up to the major exploration focus of the 2025

exploration program being the summer drilling campaign to be coupled with a high-resolution

topographic survey to assist accurate drill collar planning and program execution.

Zuénoula Project – Côte d’Ivoire

Stellar AfricaGold is pleased to report that its management team recently completed a successful site

visit to the 396 km² Zuenoula gold permit in central Côte d’Ivoire. Benefiting from favorable dry-season

conditions, site geologists finalized sample collection for the stream sediment sampling campaign,

designed to evaluate gold anomalies and identify new targets within the permit area.

The collected samples have been dispatched to the laboratory, with analytical results expected in late

May 2025. Based on the results, the additional exploration programs will focus on detailed geological

mapping and structural interpretation upstream of the identified anomalies areas of interest in this

underexplored permit area.

About the Tichka Est Zone B Gold Discovery

The identified Zone B structures are within an approximately 1 km2 area of the 82 km2 total area of the

Tichka Est Gold Project. To date, Stellar has built an 8.5-kilometer mountain access road and conducted

extensive mapping, sampling and trenching focussing on the regions in and around Zone B. Thus far

three significant zones of gold mineralization have been discovered with much of the overall Tichka Est

project area still unexplored or only superficially examined.

At the Zone B several programs of mechanical and hand trenches delivered a series of impressive assay

results including trenches MT1 3.5 g/t gold over 155.7 meters1, MT2 1.52 g/t gold over 39.7 meters

and 1.58 g/t Au over 8.6 meters 4, MT3 1.27 g/t gold over 80 meters 4, T7B 3.4 g/t gold over 20

meters3, T6B 3.4 g/t gold over 17 meters 3, and T2B 4.56 g/t gold over 15 meters2. Zone B is the

primary exploration target for 2025 although Stellar will continue reconnaissance exploration throughout

the Tichka Est Gold Project permits area.

About the Zuénoula Gold Project

The 395.8 square kilometers Zuénoula gold exploration permit is located in central Côte d’Ivoire in the

margin between granitoids and the Birimian greenstone belt along a regional NE–SW trending shear

zone. The Zuénoula Gold Project Exploration activities will target a 22 km long E-NE trending shear

zone interpreted by historic air magnetic data

The Zuénoula Gold permit is well-located geologically within the centre of recent major gold

discoveries in Côte d’Ivoire, including:

- 100 kilometers to the South-East the Yaouré Gold Mine operated by Perseus Mining Ltd. (TSX:

PRU) commenced production in 2021.

- 150 kilometers to the North-East the Lafigué Gold Mine is under construction by Endeavour

Mining Corporation (TSX: EDV) with production scheduled for Q3 2024 2024.

- 120 kilometers to South-West the Abujar Gold Mine operated by Tietto Minerals Limited (ASX:

TIE) commenced production in 2023.

- 100 kilometers to the North-West the Séguéla Gold Mine operated by Fortuna Silver Mines Inc.

(TSX: FVI) commenced production in May 2023.
