Graphano Energy Ltd. Completes Airborne Geophysical Survey at Black Pearl

Graphano Energy Ltd. (TSXV: GEL,OTC:GELEF) (FSE: 97G0) (OTC Pink: GELEF) ("Graphano" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the successful completion of its airborne geophysics program totaling 473 kilometres over the Black Pearl property in Québec.

Preliminary interpretation confirms a dominant TDEM conductor extending over 1.2 kilometres, consistent with conductive trends previously outlined by ground geophysical surveys in the Black Pearl discovery area. Initial exploration drilling by Graphano in late 2025 within this area identified multiple near surface graphite zones which returned significant assays results (core widths) including 11.33% graphitic carbon (Cg) over 8.61 metres, 4.81% Cg over 12.25 metres, and 7.37% Cg over 4.70 metres (Graphano news release dated October 14, 2025). In addition, the airborne survey has identified numerous new priority conductive targets, expanding the overall target footprint on the property.

"The confirmation of a continuous 1.2-kilometre conductive trend, together with the identification of new conductors, significantly strengthens the exploration case at Black Pearl," said Luisa Moreno, CEO of Graphano. "These results provide important technical validation of earlier groundwork and materially enhance our ability to prioritize targets as we advance the project toward the next phase of exploration."

A technical interpretation of the conductors location is currently underway, which will allow more detailed geological interpretation and EM targets ranking. A comprehensive geophysical report is expected to be finalized and delivered within approximately five weeks.

The airborne geophysics program represents a critical step in refining the geological and structural understanding of the Black Pearl property and will directly support the planning of follow-up exploration activities, including additional groundwork and drilling programs.

About Graphano Energy

Graphano Energy Ltd. is an exploration and development company focused on evaluating, acquiring, and developing energy metals resources from exploration to production.

Graphite is one of the most in-demand technology minerals that is required for a green and sustainable world. The Company's Lac Aux Bouleaux property, situated adjacent to Canada's only producing graphite mine, in Québec, Canada, has historically been an active area for natural graphite. With the demand for graphite growing in some of the most prominent and cutting-edge industries, such as lithium batteries in electric cars and other energy storage technologies, the Company is developing its project to meet the demands of the future.
