GRANDE PRAIRIE, ALBERTA (June 4,2026) – TheNewswire- ANGKOR RESOURCES CORP.(TSXV: ANK) (“ANGKOR” OR“THE COMPANY”) announces that diamonddrilling has commenced on the Andong Meas (“ADM”) mineralexploration license in Ratanakiri Province, Cambodia. The program willtest the Gossan Hills copper drill targets defined by the Company’srecently completed Induced Polarization (“IP”) survey (seeANGKOR RESOURCES IDENTIFIES COPPER DRILL TARGETS ADJACENT TO CANADAWALL COPPER PORPHYRY PROJECT, CAMBODIA, May 7, 2026), and will be followed by a short program offollow-up holes at the Wild Boar gold prospect on the samelicense.

 

The Andong Meas license hosts multiple advanced targetsalong the same mineralized trend, including the Canada Wall porphyrycopper target, the Gossan Hills copper-iron skarn, the CZ Goldprospect, and the Wild Boar gold prospect. The current drill campaignis designed to advance two of these targets in a single mobilization,taking advantage of the dry-season window.

 

DRILL PROGRAM AT A GLANCE

  • Total program: a minimum of 1,100 metres of diamonddrilling at Gossan Hills/Canada Wall, with additional follow-up metresplanned at Wild Boar.  

  • Holes planned: 3 holes at Gossan Hills/Canada Wall andapproximately two holes at Wild Boar.  

  • Hole depths: approximately 200 to 500 metres per hole,with final depths to be confirmed in the field based on geology andrecovery.  

  • Operating schedule: 24 hours per day, with the programadvancing quickly.  

  • Targets: copper at Gossan Hills (testing IPchargeability anomalies along the Canada Wall trend) and gold at WildBoar (testing the northwest-trending quartz vein system). 

 

GOSSAN HILLS — COPPER FOLLOW-UPFROM THE IP SURVEY

The Gossan Hills holes are the direct follow-up to the20 line-kilometre IP survey completed in May 2026. That surveyreturned several chargeability anomalies that line up with theCompany’s 2022 ground magnetic features and with copper-in-soilgeochemistry. Two priority areas defined by the IP work will be testedfirst:

  • Northern target— where the underground electrical signature crosses intothe southern edge of the Canada Wall copper target, potentiallyimaging the direct connection between the copper-rich end of theGossan Hills zone and the Canada Wall porphyry system.  

  • Line 6 target — where the underground electrical signature, surfacemagnetite, and zinc-lead in soils all line up, defining a separatezinc-lead target on the same mineralized trend. 

Drill collar locations and hole angles have beenfinalized based on the size, depth, and shape of the undergroundtargets imaged by the IP survey.

 

Dennis Ouellette, VP Exploration,comments: “These are the holes we have beenworking toward for several years on this license. The IP signature,the magnetics, and the soil geochemistry all point to the same trend,and the Gossan Hills skarn sits right where the model would predictrelative to the Canada Wall porphyry. We are looking for copper gradeand continuity at depth.”

WILD BOAR — GOLD FOLLOW-UPHOLES

As part of the same mobilization, the Company plans todrill approximately two follow-up holes at the Wild Boar goldprospect, located approximately 3 kilometres east of the CZ Goldprospect on the same ADM license. Wild Boar was the subject of aninitial drill program in 2025 and is defined by a 1.5 by 1.2 kilometregold-in-soil and quartz-float anomaly with narrow northwest-trending,southwest-dipping quartz veins. Float and surface samples from theanomaly have previously returned values up to 25.6 grams per tonnegold (see ASSAYRETURNS 25.6 GPT GOLD IN WILD BOAR VEINS, previously reported).

 

The follow-up holes are intended to test the strengthand orientation of the gold-bearing structures at depth.

 

OPERATIONS

Drilling is being conducted around the clock on a24-hour rotation. Early mobilization progressed efficiently and theprogram is advancing quickly. Core will betransported to the Company’s Banlung facility to be logged,photographed, and sampled with selected intervals dispatched to ALSfor assay as the program progresses.
