  • Drilling at the northern end of the Road Cut Zone continues to extend the Main Road Cut Shear, with mineralisation remaining open to the north and at depth
  • KDD0179 returned multiple high-grade intervals, including 5.0 m at 4.55 g/t Au, 6.0 m at 2.30 g/t Au and a separate 1.0 m interval at 68.60 g/t Au
  • More than 51,295 m of drilling completed at Kossou as the two-drill program continues to advance resource definition and exploration toward an inaugural MRE expected in Q4 2026

QUEBEC CITY, Sept. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kobo Resources Inc. (“Kobo” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: KRI) (FWB: Q1Z) is pleased to report diamond drill results from seven (7) additional holes completed at its 100%-owned Kossou Gold Project (“Kossou”) in Côte d’Ivoire. Six holes completed at the northern end of the Road Cut Zone returned multiple zones of gold mineralisation within and adjacent to the Main Road Cut Shear, extending the mineralised system to the north and at depth where it remains open.

Edward Gosselin, CEO and Director of Kobo, commented: “One of our primary objectives at Kossou is to continue testing the boundaries of the mineralised systems we have identified at the project, and the northern end of the Road Cut Zone is giving us good reason to keep drilling. KDD0179 returned multiple strong gold intervals within and adjacent to the Main Road Cut Shear, while results from KDD0175 and KDD0177 provide further evidence that mineralisation continues across this northern portion of the system.”

He continued: “What is particularly encouraging is what these holes are telling us about where the Road Cut Zone can continue to grow. We are seeing strong gold mineralisation at the northern extent of our current drilling, with the Main Road Cut Shear remaining open to the north and at depth. That gives our exploration team a clear path for follow-up drilling as we work to better define the scale and continuity of this important part of the Kossou Gold Project.”

Northern Road Cut Zone Drilling Extends Main Shear Mineralisation at Depth

Article content

Diamond drill holes KDD0173 to KDD0177 and KDD0179 were completed across approximately 200 m of strike between sections RCZ050 and RCZ250 (Figure 1). The holes were designed primarily to test the Main Road Cut Shear and mineralisation associated with the Contact Zone Fault. All significant assay results are reported in Table 1.

Drill hole KDD0179, completed on section RCZ050 (Figure 2), successfully intersected gold mineralisation approximately 150 m vertically below surface. The hole returned two significant intervals interpreted to be associated with the Main Road Cut Shear: 5.0 m at 4.55 g/t Au from 214.0 m, including 1.0 m at 17.60 g/t Au, and 6.0 m at 2.30 g/t Au from 223.0 m. These results extend mineralisation below KDD0065, which returned 7.0 m at 1.43 g/t Au and 4.0 m at 0.53 g/t Au, as previously reported on March 3, 2025. Mineralisation remains open to the north and at depth.
