Aurum Returns Excessive Grade Gold Intercepts at Tchaga, Napié Gold Undertaking, Côte d’Ivoire

Aurum Assets (ASX: AUE, “Aurum” or “the Firm”) is happy to announce encouraging, broad gold intercepts from its ongoing 30,000m drilling program on the 0.87Moz Napié Gold Undertaking¹ in Côte d’Ivoire. The drill program is designed to develop Mineral Assets at Napié and has efficiently confirmed a number of shallow, open-pitable gold intercepts from 18 holes drilled for five,479m on the Tchaga deposit (0.54Moz @ 1.16g/t Au).

Encouraging new drill intercepts from Napié’s Tchaga deposit embody²:

• Tchaga Deposit:
  • 5.00m @ 10.09 g/t Au from 209.00m inc. 1.00m @ 49.10 g/t Au (NADD062)
  • 50.00m @ 0.62 g/t Au from 363.00m inc. 1.00m @ 7.55 g/t Au (NADD062)
  • 10.80m @ 4.52 g/t Au from 73.00m inc. 1.90m @ 23.45 g/t Au (NADD060)
  • 36.70m @ 0.66 g/t Au from 93.30m inc. 4.70m @ 1.06 g/t Au (NADD076)
  • 6.00m @ 3.82 g/t Au from 226.00m inc. 1.00m @ 22.37 g/t Au (NADD064).

Exploration Development & Undertaking Improvement:

• Mineralisation stays open: Gold mineralisation confirmed over 2,300m and stays open alongside strike and at depth (examined to over 400m vertical), indicating important potential for useful resource progress.
• Drilling fleet expanded: Aurum has two drill rigs working at Napié and 12 drill rigs at Boundiali and is focusing on greater than 130,000m of drilling at Boundiali and Napié in CY2025.
• Main Useful resource updates pending: Two main MRE updates (Boundiali and Napié) are scheduled for Q1 CY2026, aimed toward rising the Firm’s present 3.28Moz useful resource base.
• Boundiali PFS underway: Boundiali Undertaking Pre-Feasibility Examine outcomes, due in Q1 CY2026.
• Properly-funded for progress: Aurum maintains a powerful stability sheet with ~$43M money³ to fund its exploration and improvement packages.

Aurum’s Managing Director Dr. Caigen Wang mentioned: “We’re hitting a number of broad shallow, open-pitable gold intercepts from this newest spherical of step-back diamond drilling at Napié’s Tchaga deposit. Most of those intercepts are outdoors of the present MRE and have been drilled on a 100m line spacing, and in locations all the way down to over 400m vertical depth, properly beneath the present MRE. Inside this we’re seeing a higher-grade core of round 400m strike, which incorporates our earlier outcome 17m @ 9.38 g/t gold⁴ from 236m. Drilling is ongoing and we’re awaiting assays which shall be used for the deliberate MRE replace in Q1 CY2026.

Our distinctive benefit is our owned and operated fleet of 12 diamond drill rigs, which permits us to aggressively and cost- successfully check these main gold programs, and we proceed to drill with two rigs at Napié in parallel with our aggressive program at Boundiali. We’ve got 12 diamond drill rigs lively at Boundiali on a number of deposits, as we give attention to delivering a rise in amount and confidence in our Mineral Assets.

As we shut out CY2025 now we have a powerful money stability of $43M, a transparent improvement pathway with the Boundiali PFS underway, and useful resource progress from main updates at each gold tasks pending. This locations Aurum in a wonderful place to proceed to ship substantial shareholder worth in 2026.”
