Melbourne, Australia–( ACN Newswire – October 14, 2025) – Gold-copper explorer and hybrid task generator Kincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) (Kincora or the Companyis pleased to reveal that an air-borne electro-magnetic (AEMgeophysical study covering around 155km2 has actually been set in motion at the Condobolin task, situated in the southern end of the Cobar Basin. Ahead of this study, Kincora has actually pegged the surrounding open ground to broaden the overall job size by 90km2
The AEM study is anticipated to produce brand-new near surface area targets and fine-tune existing mineralized systems situated under shallow post mineral cover, along with improve prospective much deeper source feeder zones. These consist of the Meritilga target where preparations have actually started for a high effect drilling program to evaluate the down dip and on strike extensions of the existing system which hosts broad near surface area gold-silver-base metal mineralisation with ore grade periods (consisting of 4m @ 20g/t gold and 30.2 g/t silver from 75m 1.
Because of near record Australian gold and silver costs, Kincora has actually begun an evaluation of previous motivating drilling results within a paleochannel at the Meritilga target, which has consisting of as much as 28.4 g/t gold in gravels (from 4m) and 3.99 g/t gold in basement (from 28m) 2
John Holliday, Technical Committee chair, and Peter Leaman, VP of Exploration, commented,
We are delighted to begin expedition at our entirely owned Condobolin task at a time of substantial expedition, advancement and business success in the southern and lower checked out area of the Cobar Basin.
Kincora has a well-planned method to check out the extensions of the Condobolin Mineral Field, which has a significant mining history for high grade gold, silver and base metals.
The task is well situated to existing facilities, is simple to check out and has really minimal reliable expedition listed below the shallow weathering profile. The level of historic mining, and geochemical and geophysical abnormalities, show exceptional capacity for several brand-new discoveries. We are seeking to methodically utilize expedition methods that have actually currently yielded the Meritilga discovery and numerous brand-new current discoveries in the north of the district at comparable and earlier phase profile tasks.
The developed multi-phase project is a capital effective worth include techniqueat a job that has the prospective to thrill in the existing extremely strong rare-earth elements environment.”

COBAR DISTRICT
The Cobar Basin has a 150-year history of state-of-the-art, long-life mining and is an essential provider of vital and rare-earth elements. The area gain from developed facilities and beneficial ESG factors to consider with substantial scope for processing and mining effectiveness, supporting possible debt consolidation.
The district has actually just recently seen a number of considerable brand-new discoveries using modern-day expedition strategies in lower checked out areas (eg Federation, Achilles, Mallee Bull, Southern Nights and Wagga Tank) and emerging business activity (eg Harmony’s A$ 1.6 billion takeover for MAC Copper (MAC.ASX) and Kingston Resources (KSN.ASX) just recently getting A$ 50 million money for the very first tranche of its divestment of its PNG Misima job).
CONDOBOLIN PROJECT
The job and local profiles’ assistance the Condobolin task being a possession that a junior explorer such as Kincora can include substantial worth to. A multi-phase expedition project of local scale expedition and target particular drilling has actually started and is totally moneyed following the Company’s July 2025 non-brokered personal positioning (C$ 4m raising with a 12-month hold duration).
The Condobolin job was traditionally the focus of as much as 25 casual open pit operations (peak late 1800’s- early 1900’s), with mining affected by the water level and expedition by the weathering profile. The mineral field has actually not been successfully checked out listed below the weathered zone (~ 30m).
Extremely minimal modern-day expedition has actually taken with preliminary activities by Clancy Exploration (Clancynow RareX Limited) yielding motivating outcomes at all 5 potential customers drilled (2011-13), consisting of a virgin top-quality gold discovery at the Meritilga Prospect.
More just recently within the instant district, Kingston Resources (ASX: KSN) has actually considerably broadened the resources and rebooted acid rock mining at the Mineral Hill mine, Talisman Mining (ASX: TLM) has current brand-new success at its Rip N Tear and Durnings targets (to both the instant north and south of Mineral Hill), while Australian Gold and Copper (ASX: AGC) has actually delighted the marketplace with its brand-new possible district scale discovery at its Achilles target situated within the south western extension of the Cobar Basin.
The Condobolin task lies roughly 40km south from the mill at Mineral Hill and north of the Condobolin town (which is the main source of workers to Mineral Hill operation who drive through the Condobolin task to work) – see Figure 2.
Kincora has actually combined a 100% job ownership and continued to broaden our grip throughout the near surface area capacity of the historic Condobolin Mineral Field. The overall job size is 297km2 throughout 2 nearby licenses with a brand-new license application (latter 90km2– see Figure 3.
To advance the capacity of the larger task and historic mining field, Kincora has actually mobilised an AEM study covering over 800 line-kilometres making use of Expert Geophysics Pty Ltd’s (Specialist GeophysicsTargetEM26 system. Roughly 20% of the larger task is out-sub cropping with the typical depth of cover in non-outcropping locations less than 5 metres supporting really simple expedition with surface area geology and tasting being a reliable, fast and inexpensive approaches – see Figures 3 & & 4.
AEM studies have actually shown to be an extremely efficient discovery method in this area considerably contribution in a number of current discoveries in the Cobar Basin. The study is a fast low effect approach to supply subsurface structure throughout the complete historical Condobolin Mineral Field with an infill study throughout numerous targets, consisting of Meritilga, much of which have considerable base metal and gold-silver abnormalities – see Figures 3 & & 4 overlaying lead anomalism from soil tasting.

The Meritilga target was a brand-new discovery made by Clancy in 2012 following up a coincident 2km x 2km arsenic-lead-zinc (+ gold) geochemical abnormality and K-channel radiometric abnormality over ridges east of the historical mines at Mascotte and west of Potters. The abnormalities accompanied crucial NE-striking structures determined in in-depth 3D caused polarization (IP) studies 1
The gold, silver and base metals system is located within a lode with high grade lens (ore grade, eg 4m @ 20g/t gold, 30.2 g/t silver from 75m, consisting of 1m @ 62g/t gold, 60g/t silver in hole CORC029) and a lower grade halo. The lode is a constant body, open and down dip 1, 3
Land gain access to contracts remain in location and the allowing procedure started for an as much as 15 diamond drill hole program for 4100 metres checking down dip (as much as 350m depth) and strike extensions and the capacity for repeat high grade lens and/or a stacked series of lenses.
This setting is supported by the last stage of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling by Clancy, the one diamond hole drilled by Kincora in 2023, paired with a beneficial structural setting where the primary Meritilga Fault has actually been cross-cut by N-S trending faults 4
The present working geological design, underpinned by pathfinder zonation and coincident geophysical abnormalities, supports the capacity for a bigger mineralised invasive source at depth – see Figure 6. The AEM study is anticipated to likewise much better advance and improve these principles.
Provided moving in product rates, Kincora has actually started an evaluation of previous motivating extremely shallow gold drilling outcomes of Clancy. In 2011, twenty Air-Core (AIR CONDITIONER) holes checked the Tilga paleochannel with a number of substantial hits returned. The very best obstruct was 1m @ 28.4 g/t Au (from 4m, hole COAC012 in the gravels) and 3.99 g/t Au (from 28m, hole COAC005 in basement) 2
The typical depth of the paleochannel gravels was 7.9 m with a prospective target location of 2km by 0.5 km – see Figure 4. The last evaluation of the alluvial gold capacity was carried out by Clancy when the Australian gold cost was around A$ 1500/ounce (versus existing area of nearly A$ 6000/oz). The evaluation by Kincora will check out the possible options, budget plans and partnering chances readily available to advance the alluvial (placer) gold capacity either concurrent with the broader Condobolin task or as a standalone job.
