Jagger Zone:

• KDD0129
  • 3.0 metres ( ‘ m’) at 3.32 g/t Au from 62 .0 m
  • 5.0 m at 1.34 g/t Au from 275.0 m
  • 8.0 m at 3.02 g/t Au from 285.0 m
  • 5.0 m at 1.10 g/t Au from 364.0m
• KDD0124
  • 2.0 m at 9.97 g/t Au from 297.0 m
• KDD0133
  • 2.0 m at 7.79 g/t Au from 314.0 m
• KDD0126
  • 15.0 m at 0.90 g/t Au from 189.0 m, incl. 10.0 m at 1.16 g/t Au
• KDD0134
  • 6.0 m at 1.09 g/t Au from 11.0 m, incl. 3.0 m at 1.91 g/t Au

Road Cut Zone :

• KDD0131
  • 6.0 m at 2.55 g/t Au from 165.0 m, incl. 2.0 m at 5.27 g/t Au
• KDD0135
  • 7.0 m at 1.11 g/t Au from 23.0 m
  • 12.0 m at 0.62 g/t Au from 36.0 m, incl. 6.0 m at 1.00 gt Au
  • 6.0 m at 2.59 g/t Au from 202.0 m

Edward Gosselin, CEO and Director of Kobo commented: ‘These results continue to confirm the strength and continuity of gold mineralisation within the established Jagger and Road Cut Zone structures, including meaningful intersections at depth and along the Contact Zone Fault. Importantly, this phase of drilling has also identified new gold-bearing structures both in the footwall of the main Jagger shear and along strike to the south, demonstrating that mineralisation at Kossou goes beyond previously defined zones. Total drilling reported to date at Kossou now exceeds 34,800 m across 192 drill holes, including diamond and RC drilling. Together, these results expand our target inventory and further support the scale and growth potential of the Kossou system as we continue advancing toward the resource definition stage.’

Jagger Zone: Continued Drilling Confirms Mineralisation at Depth and Along Strike

Drilling at the Jagger Zone continued with 11 additional holes completed across approximately 700 m of strike , testing continuity within the main Jagger structural corridor and mineralisation at depth.

Deeper drilling continues to confirm gold mineralisation well below previously tested levels. On section JZ650 , KDD0133 intersected 2.0 m at 7.79 g/t Au approximately 200 m below surface , while KDD0136 on Section JZ700 returned 6.0 m at 1.10 g/t Au at a depth of approximately 210 m , confirming continuity of mineralised structures at depth.

Along strike, KDD0129 on Section JZ550 returned multiple intersections, including 8.0 m at 3.02 g/t Au from 285.0 m , extending mineralisation within the core of the Jagger Shear Zone. Additional intersections, including 5.0 m at 1.10 g/t Au from 364.0 m , confirm that Structure 6 extends to depths exceeding 250 m below surface . Further confirmation of depth continuity was provided by KDD0126 on Section JZ500 , which intersected 15.0 m at 0.90 g/t Au from 189.0 m , including 10.0 m at 1.16 g/t Au . All mineralised zones remain open to depth within the Jagger Shear system.

Drill hole KDD0134 ( section JZ650) tested a gold in soil geochemical target on the east of the main drill area, footwall to the Jagger Shear structure and successfully intersected 6 .0 m at 1.09 g/t Au from 11.0 m, including 3.0 m at 1.91 g/t Au, tentatively named ‘Structure 7’ (see Figure 1). This suggests additional gold bearing shear zones are present towards the Contact Zone Fault (‘CZ Fault’). Based on successful drilling of this contact in the Road Cut Zone, this hole provides confirmation of gold mineralisation in a similar stratigraphic location and will require additional drilling to advance this concept.

Road Cut Zone: Drilling Confirms Depth Extension and Contact Zone Fault Mineralisation

Drilling at the Road Cut Zone focused on two priority targets: the main shear previously intersected on section RCZ700 and gold mineralisation associated with the Contact Zone Fault and adjacent shear structures on section RCZ300.

Two drill holes are reported from this phase. In the southern portion of the zone, KDD0131 (section RCZ650), intersected 6.0 m at 2.55 g/t Au from 165.0 m , extending mineralisation to depth.

Further north, KDD0135 ( section RCZ300 ) was drilled to test the northern extension of mineralisation along the Contact Zone Fault . In addition to near-surface intersections, the hole intersected 6.0 m at 2.59 g/t Au from 202.0 m , including 3.0 m at 4.48 g/t Au , confirming strong gold mineralisation associated with the fault. This intersection extends known mineralisation by approximately 150 m to the north and supports the Contact Zone Fault as a significant mineralised control at Road Cut , with additional drilling planned to define its extent (see Figures 4 and 5).

Jagger South Zone: Drilling Confirms Along-Strike Continuity of the Jagger Shear System

Two drill holes, KDD0127 and KDD0128 , were completed to test gold-in-soil anomalies and Trench KTR110 , located approximately 1 km south of the main Jagger Zone . Trench KTR110 previously returned 14.0 m at 0.75 g/t Au .

Drill hole KDD0127 intersected 5.0 m at 0.35 g/t Au from 25.0 m and 3.0 m at 2.25 g/t Au from 48.0 m . The mineralisation is associated with quartz feldspar porphyry intrusions , similar to those observed in the central Jagger Zone , indicating regional continuity to the Jagger Shear system in southern parts. Additional work is planned to further evaluate this target area.

Table 1: Summary of Significant Diamond Drill Hole Results

An accurate dip and strike and controls of mineralisation are unconfirmed and mineralised zones are reported as downhole lengths. Drill holes are planned to intersect mineralised zones perpendicular to interpreted targets. All intercepts reported are downhole distances, true widths are unknown.

Sampling, QA/QC, and Analytical Procedures

Drill core was logged and sampled by Kobo personnel at site. Drill cores were sawn in half, with one half remaining in the core box and the other half secured into new plastic sample bags with sample number tickets. Core samples are drilled using HQ core barrels to below the level of oxidation and then reduced to NQ core barrels for the remainder of the bore hole. Samples are transported to the SGS Côte d’Ivoire facility in Yamoussoukro by Kobo personnel where the entire sample was prepared for analysis (prep code PRP86/PRP94). Sample splits of 50 grams were then analysed for gold using 50g Fire Assay as per SGS Geochem Method FAA505. QA/QC procedures for the drill program include insertion of a certificated standards every 20 samples, a blank every 20 samples and a duplicate sample every 20 samples. All QAQC control samples returned values within acceptable limits.

(TheNewswire)

 

TORONTO, January 13, 2026 TheNewswire – Noble Mineral Exploration Inc. (‘Noble’ or the ‘Company’) (TSXV: NOB,OTC:NLPXF) (OTCQB: NLPXF) is pleased to provide the announcement by Canada Nickel that its Crawford Nickel Project has been name for Ontario’s One Project, One Process framework.

 

Noble CEO Vance White said ‘We congratulate Canada Nickel in their announcement today as to its Crawford Nickel Project being formally named for the Province of Ontario’s One Project, One Process. We believe this is a huge step forward in the potential development of the Crawford deposit.’

‘Crawford Nickel Project Named Under Ontario’s One Project, One Process Framework’

 

 TORONTO, January 13, 2026 – Canada Nickel Company Inc. (‘Canada Nickel’ or the ‘Company’) (TSX-V: CNC) (OTCQB: CNIKF) today announced the Province of Ontario has formally named the Crawford Nickel Project (‘Crawford’ or ‘the Project’) as the second project to be advanced under the Province’s new One Project, One Process (‘1P1P’) framework. The 1P1P framework is designed to better coordinate Ontario’s permitting and review processes for major mining developments by aligning timelines, responsibilities, and information sharing across provincial ministries. For Canada Nickel, this designation reflects the advanced state, scale, and strategic importance of the Crawford Nickel Project within Ontario’s Critical Minerals Strategy. ‘Ontario is moving at lightning speed to open this 100% Canadian owned mine to create 4,000 jobs for Canadian workers,’ said Stephen Lecce, Minister of Energy and Mines. ‘In 2026, our government is going full-tilt to unlock one of the world’s largest nickel deposits that will supercharge our economy and help end China’s critical mineral dominance. ‘Made-in -Canada’ from start to finish, as we build a domestic supply chain that includes the Western world’s largest nickel sulphide mine, a new nickel processing plant and downstream alloy production facility.’ ‘Today’s announcement underscores the strategic significance of the Crawford Nickel Project for Ontario and the province’s ambition to establish a world-leading, Made-in-Ontario critical minerals supply chain,’ said Mark Selby, CEO of Canada Nickel Company. ‘Crawford is purpose-built to anchor a new low-carbon mining and clean metals manufacturing corridor in Northeastern Ontario – driving long-term economic growth, creating high-quality jobs, and ensuring that value generation remains within the province. As the only mining project in Canada to secure this type of endorsement from both federal and provincial governments, today’s announcement strengthens our commitment to commencing construction by yearend. We look forward to working with the province through its newly announced Critical Minerals Processing Fund to help realize these ambitions.’ Importantly, Canada Nickel has engaged in comprehensive consultations with the Province of Ontario and re-affirmed that the 1P1P framework will complement – not replace our longstanding commitments to Indigenous Nations, environmental stewardship, or regulatory rigour. The framework is intended to enhance government coordination and efficiency, while maintaining the highest standards for project development and community engagement. Crawford is already advancing at the forefront of Canada’s modernized regulatory framework, having become the first mining project in the country to submit an Impact Statement under the amended Impact Assessment Act, 2019, in November 2024. Together with its designation under the 1P1P framework and its referral to the federal Major Projects Office in November 2025, these milestones establish a clear path to responsibly accelerate development. 2 Crawford is expected to be the largest nickel sulphide project in the western world and among the most economically significant mining developments in Canada. Independent analysis estimates the Project will generate more than $70 billion in GDP over its initial 40+ year mine life, including approximately $67 billion for Ontario alone, while supporting 1,000 direct and 3,000 indirect and induced jobs. Through its patented In-Process Tailings (IPT) Carbonation technology, Crawford is also expected to permanently store up to 1.5 million tonnes of CO₂ annually, positioning it to become one of Canada’s largest carbon storage facilities, and the world’s first net-zero carbon nickel mines. All technical information derived in this news release is from the Company’s Crawford Feasibility Study, published in November 2023.
