Stellar AfricaGold Inc Intersects Multiple Wide High-Grade Gold Zones including 13 meters of 6.12 g/t Au in First Drill Hole at Tichka Est; Drill Program Continues.

(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, BritishColumbia – TheNewswire - October 2,2025 - Stellar AfricaGold Inc. (TSX-V:SPX) ("Stellar" or the"Company") is pleased to report significant assay resultsfrom its first drill hole at the Tichka Est G old P roject, part of the ongoing 1,500-meters summer diamond drill program at theZone B gold discovery, an area of approximately one square kilometerwithin Stellar’s 82km 2 permit area in Morocco.

Highlights

• First Drill Hole TCK-001 intersected

  • 13 meters of 6.12 g/t Au including 2 meters of22.28 g/t Au , and

  • 16 meters of 1.98 g/t Au including 1 meter of 11.55 g/tAu

• Mineralisation is mainly hosted in sub-horizontal diorite sills ,confirming continuity of favorable lithology.

• A total of 492.8 meters ofdiamond core drilled to date across three holesin Zone B. One drill rig currently operating, with drilling progressaveraging approximately 10.5 meters of diamondcore per day.

(Composite interval s include 0.1g/t Au cut-off & maximum internal dilution of 3m.)

Detail of Results

Diamond drill hole TCK-001 was designed to test theinterpreted mineralized sub-horizontal diorite sills, which act asboth lithological and structural controls to goldmineralization.

Two well-defined mineralized zones wereintersected:

•        Within Diorite 1 between 83–99 meters: 16 m of 1.98 g/tAu , including 1 m of 11.55 g/t Au

• Within Diorite 2 between 125–138 meters: 13 m of 6.12 g/tAu , including 2 m of 22.28 g/t Au

• Within Diorite 3 the mineralization encountered in previoussurface trenching of the third diorite zone was not encountered indrill hole TCK-001 consistent with the absence of veining orfracturing in the core.

These intersections support the geological modeldeveloped for Tichka Est Zone B and provide strong encouragement forexpansion of the drilling program.

Operations Update

Diamond d rilling has now totaled 492.8 meters across threeholes , with core from holes TCK-002 and TCK-003 confirming the presence of the sulphide-bearingsub-horizontal dioritesills previously encountered in holeTCK-001.

Drilling is progressing at an average rate ofapproximately 10.5 meters per day. Recently progress was temporarilyhampered by fractured zones down hole requiring cementing to reducewater loss, on site water supply logistics, and weather-relatedimpacts requiring repairs to roads and drill platforms. Despite theseoperational challenges, drilling continues steadily, with excellent core recoveriesachieved.

Next Steps

• Continue drilling the planned1500-meters diamond drill program to testlateral continuity and down-dip extensions ofsulphide-bearing sub-horizontal diorite sills, and

• Update geological, structural, and alteration modelswith new data.

• Continue reconnaissance exploration throughout theTichka Est Gold Project 82 km permitsarea.

Management Commentary

“Drill hole TCK-001 at Tichka Est has confirmed thepresence of a very promising gold system,” said J. FrançoisLalonde, President and CEO of Stellar AfricaGold. “Withmineralization now confirmed at depth, we are becoming increasingconfident in the potential of the Tichka Est Gold Project and areexcited to expand both our current drilling program to test continuityof mineralization and additional new targets as we advance the Zone Bgold discovery. Additionally, our surface reconnaissance explorationof the numerous other areas of interest within the 82km 2 permit area ofTichka Est will continue.”

About the Tichka Est Zone B GoldDiscovery

The identified Zone B structures are within anapproximately 1 km2 area of the 82 km2 total area of the Tichka EstGold Project. To date, Stellar has built an 8.5-kilometer mountainaccess road and conducted extensive mapping, sampling and trenchingfocussing on the regions in and around Zone B. Thus far threesignificant zones of gold mineralization have been discovered withmuch of the overall Tichka Est project area still unexplored or onlysuperficially examined.

At the Zone B several programs of mechanical and handtrenches delivered a series of impressive assay results includingtrenches MT1 3.5 g/t gold over 155.7 meters 1 , MT2 1.52 g/tgold over 39.7 meters and 1.58 g/t Au over 8.6 meters 4 , MT3 1.27 g/tgold over 80 meters 4 , T7B 3.4 g/t gold over 20 meters 3 , T6B 3.4 g/tgold over 17 meters 3 , and T2B 4.56 g/t gold over 15meters 2 . Zone B is the primary exploration target for 2025 althoughStellar will continue reconnaissance exploration throughout the TichkaEst Gold Project permits area.

Technical Disclosure

The drilling campaign at Tichka Est is being conductedby two geologists from the African Bureau of Mining Consultants, underthe supervision of Mr. Yassine Belkabir.

Diamond drilling was conducted using HQ diameter core. Core runs were retrieved every 3.0 m orless, with recovery measured and recorded for each run. Averagerecovery in reported intervals exceeded 99%. Core was oriented with aReflex ACT III tool, photographed (wet and dry), and logged forlithology, alteration, mineralization, and structure.

Sampling intervals for assay were typically one metre in length, defined bygeological boundaries. Core was cut with a diamond saw, half-corearchived, and half-core submitted for analysis.

Sample preparation and assaying were performed by Afrilab inMarrakech , an ISO-certified laboratoryindependent of the Company. Samples were crushed to 70% passing 2 mm,split to 250 g, and pulverized to 85% passing 75 ?m. Gold assays wereperformed using 50 g fire assay with an atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish . Over-limit assays (>5 g/tAu) were re-assayed with gravimetric finish.

QA/QC program consisted of 8 reference materials(standards) and 8 blanks inserted by geologists at regular intervals.In addition, Laboratory QA/QC protocols included internal blanks,standards, and duplicates, with performance reported to theexploration team for independent review. No material QA/QC issues werenoted in the batches reported.
