K92 Mining Announces Major Regional Exploration Update: Significant Expansion of Arakompa Deposit, Discovery of Porphyry-Style Mineralization from Arakompa Southernmost Step-Out, and Substantial 3.5 km by 3.5 km New Mineralized System Discovered at Wera

September 11, 2025

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- K92 Mining Inc . (“ K92 ” or the “ Company ”) (TSX : KNT; OTCQX : KNTNF) is pleased to announce its fifth set of drilling results consisting of 24 holes for total results of 67 holes released to date from its maiden surface diamond drill program at Arakompa, located approximately 4.5 km from the Kainantu Gold Mine Process Plant in Papua New Guinea. Additionally, K92 is pleased to report initial results from its maiden greenfields exploration program at the Wera prospect, outlining a large 3.5 km by 3.5 km mineralized system located approximately 10 km South-West of the Kora and Judd deposits.

• Drillhole KARDD0065, stepping out approximately 250 metres to the south from the latest results at Arakompa, has discovered significant porphyry-style mineralization recording 690.4 metres at 0.30% Copper Equivalent (“CuEq”) ^{( 2 )} (0.17 g/t Au, 0.17% Cu, 2 g/t Ag) starting at 297.0 metres, including 395.3 metres at 0.38% CuEq (0.24 g/t Au, 0.20% Cu, 2 g/t Ag) starting at 349.7 metres. The hole was designed with two objectives: (i) to test the strike extension at Arakompa; and (ii) to be the first hole drilled to test a 600 metre by 600 metre copper-in-soil anomaly. Intersected mineralization occurred as disseminated sulphides, with vein-hosted and vein-controlled sulphide mineralization present. The sulphide mineralization is dominantly chalcopyrite, with minor bornite and molybdenite also observed. Porphyry-style B, D, and M-type quartz sulphide veins are also present. The intersection is interpreted to be distal to a porphyry potassic core, bottomed in mineralization, and represents a very significant vector for follow-up drilling, which is underway.
• Significant extension of the Arakompa bulk tonnage zone strike extent to the north and the south, with the bulk zone now defined over approximately 1,100 metres and to a vertical depth of 800 metres, increasing 200 metres strike and 150 metres depth from the February 20, 2025 press release, respectively. Drill results to date have recorded an average true thickness of 39 metres, highlighting strong, near-surface bulk mining potential (see Figure 5 – Arakompa Bulk Interpretation Long Section) . The interpreted bulk zone consists of a thick, intensely altered mineralized halo surrounding the high-grade vein lodes and it remains open in multiple directions.

K92 schafft es leider nicht, über das ATH aus dem Juni diesen Jahres auszubrechen. Vorgestern sah es noch vielversprechend aus, gestern erneute Schwäche.

Kämmerer ,

K-92 ist wie viele andere Goldminen scheinbar in einer Welle "5"-Bewegung, die sie noch höher führen sollte, bevor der Blick wieder nach unten gerichtet werden sollte......:

wenn die angefangene Welle 5 länger als die hier auch sichtbare "3" werden sollte (wie so oft bei EM), dann kannst Du Dir ausmalen, wohin das führen sollte......, aber mind. die hier auch sichtbare "1" sollte es in der Ausdehnung schaffen/überbieten....vor der erwähnten nächsten Korrektur.

K92 Mining Announces Strong Q3 Production Results - 44,323 oz AuEq Produced Plus 4,893 oz AuEq in Commissioning Stockpile and Significant Stage 3 Expansion Progress Achieved

October 8, 2025

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- K92 Mining Inc . (“ K92 ” or the “ Company ”) (TSX : KNT; OTCQX : KNTNF) is pleased to announce production results for the third quarter (“ Q3 ”) of 2025 from its Kainantu Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea.

Q3 2025 Production Results

• Strong quarterly production of 44,323 ounces gold equivalent (“AuEq”) ⁽¹⁾ or 42,244 oz gold, 1,323,538 lbs copper and 34,831 oz silver (Figure 1). Quarterly sales of 45,006 oz gold, 1,480,151 lbs copper and 43,271 oz silver. With more than 80% of the lower end of annual guidance achieved in the first three quarters, plus ending Q3 with a 4,893 oz AuEq commissioning stockpile in line with the Stage 3 Expansion requirements (28,702 tonnes at 5.3 g/t AuEq or 5.0 g/t gold, 0.24% copper, and 11.9 g/t silver), the Company remains on track to meet its 2025 production guidance of 160,000–185,000 oz AuEq.
  
• Quarterly ore processed of 137,172 tonnes, a 31% increase from Q3 2024, with a head grade of 11.2 grams per tonne (“g/t”) AuEq, or 10.7 g/t gold, 0.47% copper and 10.3 g/t silver. Head grade during the quarter was above budget, benefitting from a positive gold grade reconciliation versus the latest independent mineral resource estimate (September 12, 2023 effective date for Kora and Judd).
  
• Strong metallurgical recoveries in Q3 of 95.0% for gold and 94.6% for copper (Figure 2). The process plant has now delivered six consecutive quarters exceeding the updated definitive feasibility study (“Updated DFS”) recovery parameters for both gold (92.6%) and copper (94.2%) (January 1, 2024 effective date).
  
• Record total material mined (ore plus waste) of 353,770 tonnes, with multiple tonnes to surface daily records (ore plus waste) in late-September, including 5,769 tonnes on September 27 and 6,404 tonnes on September 29, demonstrating the increased material movement benefits realized from the commissioning of the first material pass during the quarter combined with the commencement of surface trucks operating in the twin incline. Total mine development was 2,477 metres. The operation continues to balance lateral development priorities between the completion of key underground projects, including prioritizing low equivalent lateral advance jumbo activities such as the Puma Ventilation Drive and the underground pastefill chamber.
  
• Total ore mined of 152,485 tonnes, the second highest on record, with mining activity across 13 levels, including the 1090, 1110, 1225, 1325, 1345, and 1365 levels at Kora, and the 1010, 1030, 1050, 1170, 1185, 1325, 1345 and 1385 levels at Judd – long hole open stoping performed to design.
  

Stage 3 Expansion – Significant Progress Made. Construction of Stage 3 Plant Complete, Commissioning Well-Advanced, First Gold Pour and First Concentrate Production on Track for First Half of Q4 2025

• Construction of the new 1.2 million tonnes-per-annum Stage 3 Expansion Process Plant is complete and was delivered under the capital expenditure budget, marking a major milestone for the construction team. Crushing, grinding and flotation circuits are now being commissioned with ore, with first gold pour, first gold-copper-silver concentrate production and completion of plant commissioning on schedule for the first half of Q4 2025. As at September 30, 2025, 90% of Stage 3 Expansion growth capital has either been spent or committed and remains on budget.
  
• During Q3, the major construction contracts were awarded for the pastefill plant. The surface tailings filtration plant detailed engineering and design is complete, early earthworks are complete and civil works have commenced. The surface storage facility near the underground mine is rapidly advancing, with site clearing complete, early earthworks underway, and detailed engineering nearly complete. The underground pastefill plant bulk excavations made significant progress during the quarter, and detailed engineering and design is nearly complete. Long-lead items for the various paste infrastructure projects are now arriving on site. Commissioning remains on schedule to commence mid-Q1 2026, with practical completion of commissioning of the pastefill circuit remaining on schedule for mid-2026.
  
• During the quarter, several key Stage 3 Expansion underground construction and operational excellence projects were completed or are approaching completion, including:
  
  
  • Material Pass – Construction and commissioning completed in Q3, connecting the main mine via gravity to the highly productive twin incline haulage route. In late-Q3, multiple surface haulage daily records were delivered as noted above, driven by the commissioning of the material pass, combined with the commencement of surface haul trucks operating in the twin incline that transport material directly from underground to surface stockpiles, eliminating the need for rehandle. The next material pass is planned to commence development in Q4 and become operational in Q1 2026, enabling a dedicated pass for both ore and waste, respectively.
    
  • Phase 2 Ventilation Upgrade – Development of two raisebored ventilation raises was completed in Q3, with the full ventilation upgrade planned for the second half of October. This upgrade is expected to deliver a +30% increase in primary mine airflow (150 m ³ /s to 200 m ³ /s), enabling two major productivity improvements: i) reduced re-entry times after blasting, and; ii) reduced blast initiation time with the introduction of a centralized blasting system which enables remote initiation from surface – these two combined improvements will enable firing twice a day (currently once a day).
    
  • Phase 3 Ventilation Upgrade - Puma Ventilation Drive on schedule for Q4 completion and is now within 70m of surface breakthrough. Surface works are complete ahead of the breakthrough, and upon breakthrough, primary mine airflow is expected to increase to 250 m ³ /s, further reducing blast re-entry times and meeting the airflow requirements for the Stage 3 Expansion. Once complete, the vent circuit will be modified, so that the twin incline will operate under highly efficient one-way traffic flow that utilizes both inclines.
    
  • Stage 4 Expansion Ventilation Upgrade – Installation of two x 2 MW variable speed drive fans is currently underway and scheduled for completion in Q4. Electrification is planned to be opportunistically completed in H1 2026 as it is not required for the Stage 3 Expansion.
    
  • Decline-Incline Convergence Project connecting the Main Mine with the Twin Incline via internal ramp access – Significant progress was delivered in Q3 with 258 metres of advance achieved, leaving less than 370 metres of development required for completion. Upon completion scheduled for Q1 2026, this project is expected to deliver major operational efficiency improvements as the Main Mine will now also become accessible by the highly productive twin incline, and all mining fronts will be connected via an internal ramp, allowing for one-way traffic flow.
    
  • Surface Tele-Remote Loader System – Completed in Q3, leveraging the underground fiber optic backbone (Wi-Fi), to enable the operation of underground loaders from surface. This system maximizes the available operating time over a 24-hour period by enabling tele-remote loading operations during shift change and re-entry. In late-Q3, the underground fleet was also fully integrated with onboard Wi-Fi capability to enable real-time data-collection for short interval control planning, productivity monitoring, and fleet diagnostics to further drive operational improvements.
    
  • Primary Power Station – Phase 1, 8.8 MW of generation capacity was installed and commissioned in Q3. Phase 2 has significantly progressed with intended expansion to 15.2 MW. Long-lead orders have been placed and completion is planned for H1 2026. This will provide standby power during any unexpected outages from the local grid (hydroelectricity).
    
• Two new mining fronts have also been significantly developed, including five new sublevels in the Twin Incline mining front, and two new sublevels in the Lower Kora mining front, which will facilitate the ramp-up in long-hole stoping over the coming quarters for the Stage 3 Expansion.
