Article content
QUEBEC CITY — Kobo Resources Inc. (' Kobo' or the ' Company ') (TSX.V: KRI) is pleased to announce the commencement of the Company's 2025 diamond drilling program at its 100%-owned Kossou Gold Project (' Kossou ') in Côte d'Ivoire. This marks the beginning of what could become Kobo's most extensive exploration program to date.

Edward Gosselin, CEO and Director of Kobo, commented: 'As we kick off our 2025 diamond drill campaign, we are focused on strategically advancing our high-priority gold targets at Kossou as we move toward our longer-term objective of defining a potential maiden resource. This phased approach allows us to build on the momentum of last year's discoveries, where previous drilling has yielded some of our most encouraging results to date, and refine our targeting through detailed structural interpretation. We are particularly excited to further test continuity and depth potential at both the Jagger and Road Cut Zones, while also advancing work at our Kotobi Permit. With other regional work ongoing and a growing footprint in Côte d'Ivoire, we are well-positioned for another active year of exploration at Kobo. '
Article content
The 2025 drill campaign will begin with a 5,000–6,000 m phase at the Jagger and Road Cut Zones, two of the most advanced gold targets at Kossou (see Figure 1). This initial phase is designed to establish the mineralisation model and to test depth of mineralisation, which is expected to inform subsequent phases of drilling. Pending results, the program is expected to expand into a broader campaign of up to 20,000–30,000 m, marking the Company's largest diamond drill program to date.
Article content
At the Jagger Zone, drilling will target the core of the mineralized corridor to test the mineralisation model and evaluate the potential for gold mineralization at depth, including step-outs in the 200+ m range. This work builds upon previously reported strong intercepts and the Company's growing understanding of the Jagger shear zone-hosted system. At the Road Cut Zone, drilling will focus on establishing the mineralisation model based on previous drilling and trenching, with a view to defining potential high-priority zones for future phases of exploration.
Article content
Several holes have been proposed to test the gap between the southern drilled extend of the Road Cut Zone and the northern drilled extent of the Jagger Zone, a gap of over 400 m that remains untested.
Article content
In addition, Kobo continues to advance exploration activities at its Kotobi Permit, located to the east of the Company's Kossou Gold Project in Côte d'Ivoire. Crews are currently completing infill soil geochemical sampling in areas with previously identified gold anomalies, as well as conducting new wide-spaced geochemical lines in previously unexplored zones. This work is being supported by geological mapping and rock sampling, designed to refine exploration targets for potential trenching or drilling in the future.

The Company is also pleased to share that Atrium Research, an independent Canadian equity research firm, has initiated coverage on Kobo Resources. The research report, which was commissioned by Kobo and is a paid issuer-sponsored report, highlights the Company's strong leadership and strategic partnership, proximity to infrastructure, and compelling position within one of West Africa's most prospective gold districts.

Kobo Resources is a growth-focused gold exploration company with a compelling new gold discovery in Côte d'Ivoire, one of West Africa's most prolific and developing gold districts, hosting several multi-million-ounce gold mines. The Company's 100%-owned Kossou Gold Project is located approximately 20 km northwest of the capital city of Yamoussoukro and is directly adjacent to one of the region's largest gold mines with established processing facilities.
Article content
With over 15,000 meters of diamond drilling, nearly 5,900 meters of reverse circulation (RC) drilling, and 5,900 meters of trenching completed since 2023, Kobo has made significant progress in defining the scale and prospectivity of its Kossou's Gold Project. Exploration has focused on multiple high-priority targets within a 9+ km strike length of highly prospective gold-in-soil geochemical anomalies, with drilling confirming extensive mineralization at the Jagger, Road Cut, and Kadie Zones. The latest phase of drilling has further refined structural controls on gold mineralization, setting the stage for the next phase of systematic exploration and resource development.
Article content
Beyond Kossou, the Company is advancing exploration at its Kotobi Permit and is actively expanding its land position in Côte d'Ivoire with prospective ground, aligning with its strategic vision for long-term growth in-country. Kobo remains committed to identifying and developing new opportunities to enhance its exploration portfolio within highly prospective gold regions of West Africa.
