ONE BULLION ADVANCES MAITENGWE GOLD PROJECT TOWARD FIELD VERIFICATION AND PLANNED DRILL TESTING

One Bullion Ltd. has provided an exploration update on its wholly owned Maitengwe gold project in northeastern Botswana and outlined the next proposed phase of work, following receipt of the final data set from its 2026 high-resolution airborne geophysical survey. The company holds the project through its wholly owned Botswana subsidiary, Premier Gold Resources Pty. Ltd. Maitengwe comprises prospecting licences PL 012/2018 and PL 235/2016 and has an area of approximately 58,075 hectares (580.75 square kilometres).

"Maitengwe is now moving from a large, underexplored land position to a series of specific geological questions that we can test in the field," said Adam Berk, chief executive officer of One Bullion. "The geophysical program has given us a much clearer view of the concealed rock architecture beneath Kalahari cover. Our focus is on testing the structural positions that may matter for gold, such as contacts, bends and intersecting trends. We intend to verify the geology, establish where our sampling methods are effective, and advance only the most compelling targets to trenching and RC [reverse circulation] drilling. That staged approach is designed to deploy capital carefully while building a technically credible exploration pipeline at Maitengwe."

Highlights:

  • An 11,654 line-kilometre airborne magnetic-gradient and radiometric survey, flown at 50-metre line spacing in July, 2026, provides an enhanced framework for geological interpretation across the two-licence Maitengwe project.
  • The property lies within the Archean Francistown granite-greenstone complex on the southwestern margin of the Zimbabwe craton, an established regional setting for structurally controlled gold exploration.
  • Preliminary internal desktop screening has identified 32 geophysical reconnaissance work areas grouped into nine clusters, with eight areas prioritized for initial field assessment. These are interpretive work areas, not confirmed mineralized zones or approved drill targets.
  • The next proposed phase prioritizes confirmation of bedrock geology, cover conditions and geochemical sampling effectiveness, followed by selective trenching or shallow subsurface sampling and staged reverse circulation (RC) drilling where warranted.
  • Environmental impact statement approval for PL 012/2018 was granted in April, 2026, subject to its conditions. Approvals, land access and activity-specific requirements remain to be confirmed for each proposed field location.

Geological setting and exploration rationale

Maitengwe is located between Tutume and the Zimbabwe border in northeastern Botswana. Regional geological mapping places the Maitengwe greenstone belt within the Francistown granite-greenstone complex of the Archean Zimbabwe craton. The regional succession includes metamorphosed volcanic and sedimentary rocks, with local mafic-ultramafic assemblages and iron-rich units, intruded by Archean granitoids. In this type of setting, shear zones, lithological contacts, fold-related structures and quartz-carbonate vein systems may be prospective for gold. The local rock types, structures and mineralization styles at individual Maitengwe targets remain to be established by direct observation and sampling. For regional context, the company's Vumba project lies to the south-southeast of Maitengwe in northeastern Botswana, and both projects are situated close to the Botswana-Zimbabwe border.

Much of Maitengwe is obscured by transported Kalahari sands, which restrict conventional surface mapping and can reduce the effectiveness of near-surface geochemical methods. The principal exploration challenge is therefore to distinguish bedrock-related features from magnetic effects, primary intrusive contacts, regolith transport and possible processing artifacts before prioritizing expenditure on drilling.

Results of the 2026 airborne program

Xcalibur Smart Mapping acquired the high-resolution magnetic-gradient and radiometric survey from July 7 to July 30, 2026, using a fixed-wing platform. Campbell & Walker Geophysics provided postprocessing and preliminary interpretation. One Bullion announced receipt of the final processed data set on Oct. 14, 2026. The company is integrating the processed data with historical geophysical, geological, prospecting and geochemical information, subject to verification of original records and spatial control.

Initial interpretation highlights a northeast-trending lithomagnetic framework with several contrasting geophysical domains, including curved magnetic bands in the southwest, a central magnetic trend with compact sources, short lens-like features in the west-central area, an eastern zone of intersecting or discordant trends, and a separately expressed northern banded system. The company is assessing bends, contacts, terminations and junctions as possible sites for structural investigation. These features could reflect changes in host lithology, intrusions, deformation or a combination of factors; magnetics and radiometrics do not measure gold grade and do not establish the presence of mineralization.

Preliminary target areas for field verification

The company has identified 32 reconnaissance work areas in nine clusters. Eight areas have been provisionally placed in the first-pass field-assessment group. The prioritization is an internal screening exercise based on the existing geophysical products and geological hypotheses. Field confirmation and qualified person review are required before any area is described as drill ready.

Proposed staged exploration program

Stage 1 -- validate data and assess the ground

Reconcile airborne survey grids and quality control with historical data sets and current license boundaries; conduct focused geological and structural mapping where outcrop is accessible; determine Kalahari cover thickness and the presence of residual regolith; and complete orientation geochemical sampling using appropriate soil, saprolite or bedrock media. The objective is to confirm which geophysical features are geological, whether a sampling method is representative of underlying bedrock and which locations warrant more detailed work.

Stage 2 -- selective trenching and subsurface target definition

Where the cover profile, ground conditions and applicable approvals permit, excavate short, targeted trenches or test windows across verified contacts and structural positions. The purpose is to expose and log lithology, foliation, veining, alteration and possible sulphides and to obtain spatially controlled channel samples. Where transported cover makes surface trenching or soils ineffective, the company may instead use a suitable shallow subsurface technique to sample the weathered-bedrock interface. The company is not announcing a blanket trenching commitment; excavation lengths and locations will follow field results and site-specific approvals.

Stage 3 -- conditional RC drilling and follow-up

Advance targets to a staged first-pass RC program only after they demonstrate a defensible combination of geology, structure and appropriately verified geochemistry or where a tightly scoped geological scout test is justified. Initial holes are expected to focus on the shallow bedrock and interpreted structural geometry, with orientations and depths determined from field results rather than fixed from desktop maps. Follow-up RC and potentially oriented diamond drilling would be contingent on geological observations, assay results and the ability to test continuity. No definitive drill-hole count, metreage, mobilization date or exploration budget is being committed in this release.

Technical objectives and decision criteria

The proposed work is designed to: (i) identify the rock packages and structures associated with each geophysical feature; (ii) determine whether sampling beneath cover provides meaningful, repeatable gold and pathfinder results; (iii) test the orientation, width and continuity of any mineralized structures indicated by surface or shallow work; and (iv) rank, advance or discontinue targets using explicit technical criteria. Targets that resolve as barren intrusive bodies, transported geochemical responses or unsupported geophysical features will be downgraded rather than drilled solely to complete a planned metreage.

Sampling, quality assurance and environmental controls

Future field samples will be documented with suitable location, lithological and sampling information. The planned quality assurance/quality control program will include appropriate certified reference materials, blanks, duplicates and custody controls. Analysis will be by independent accredited laboratories using methods suited to the relevant sample media. Details of laboratory methods, sampling intervals, quality control performance and any material assay results will be disclosed once the work has been completed and reviewed.

Through Premier Gold Resources, the company received environmental impact statement approval for exploration on PL012/2018 from Botswana's Department of Environmental Protection. The approval is effective April 20, 2026, for two years, subject to applicable mitigation and monitoring requirements. That approval does not by itself authorize for all proposed activities across both Maitengwe licences. The company will confirm land access, environmental obligations, site-specific permits, and health and safety controls before disturbing ground.

Exploration-stage caution

No new Maitengwe gold assay results, mineral resource estimates or mineral reserve estimates are disclosed in this news release. Interpretations of geophysical structures, geological models and priority areas remain preliminary and subject to ground verification. The presence of a magnetic feature, lithological contact or historical selective sample is not evidence of an economically mineralized deposit. The proposed program is exploratory in nature, and there can be no assurance that further work will identify mineralization of economic significance.
