Stellar Africagold Updates Ongoing Exploration and Drilling Activities at the Tichka Est Gold Project, Morocco

(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, BC TheNewswire - December 2, 2025 Stellar AfricaGold Inc. ("Stellar" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the exploration and drilling program at Tichka Est Gold Project in the High Atlas of Morocco.

1. Drilling Program Progress

Summary of drilling progress to date:

• 7 diamond drill holes completed, totaling 1,218 metres

• Average drilling rate of 11 meters per day

• Drill progress suffered minor adverse impacts caused by:

  • intermittent wet weather events impacting access roads and drill pad degradation requiring limited remediation,

  • cementing of fractured zones in certain drill holes, and

  • minor mechanical delays

Status of drill holes:

• 3 drill holes have been fully assayed, including TCK1 (See news release October 2, 2025 for details of TCK1 assay results), which intersected multiple gold-bearing intervals ( 13 meters of 6.12 g/t Au including 2 meters of 22.28 g/t Au , and 16 meters of 1.98 g/t Au including 1 meter of 11.55 g/t Au) and confirmed that mineralization continues more than 100 metres beyond the nearest high-grade trench

• 3 drill holes have been sampled and are currently at Afrilab, an ISO-certified laboratory in Marrakech, for analysis.

• 1 drill hole is pending transport from Tichka Est project site to Afrilab for analysis.

• 2 final drill holes remain and will complete the current 1,500 meters drill program.

All pending assays results will be released once they are received, validated, compiled, analysed and integrated into the geological working model.

Geological Context

The current drill campaign was designed to test several geological targets within Zone B, a structurally favorable domain situated at the intersection of two major regional fault systems:

• Tizgui Fault Zone (NE-striking) and

• Arg-Erdouz Fault Zone (ENE-striking).

According to the structural assessment completed by Dr. David Selley (August 2025), this intersection forms a transpressive domain characterized by enhanced brittle deformation, vertical/lateral escape structures, and pervasive hydrothermal fluid circulation . These conditions have localized gold-bearing quartz-carbonate–sulphide veins preferentially within fractured diorite sills hosted within carbonate strata. (See Figure 1 below).

On a regional scale Zone B represented a significant structural intersection, between the Tizgui and Arg-Erdouz faults which created a Y-shaped trap that focussed gold-bearing hydrothermal fluids. This setting, linked to deep structures around the Tichka granite, generated intense fracturing and the deposition of high-grade gold veins in favourable carbonate and diorite hosts. In essence, Structure B exhibited as an exceptional structural trap site for gold mineralisation.

Preliminary observations

Field observations and on-site core logging continue to validate the drill targeting model, with mineralization identified visually in:

• Diorite sill contacts,

• Shear structures along the Tizgui zone,

• The Arg-Erdouz structural trend, and

• Repeated diorite intrusions within the transpressive corridor.

These preliminary findings strengthen/reinforce the geological rationale for continued systematic drilling across Zone B.

2. Geological Interpretation and 3D Modelling.

The Company has initiated a major update of the geological and structural model to integrate new drilling information, rock mechanics observations, and historical datasets.

Structural Interpretation

The structural interpretation is ongoing as drilling is continuing. Preliminary integration suggests:

• Gold distribution is strongly structurally and rheologically controlled,

• The most favourable settings occur where brittle dioritic intrusions intersect ductile carbonate units,

• Multiple drill intercepts visually confirm quartz–ankerite–arsenopyrite vein arrays,

• Shear-zone intercepts visually display evidence of focused hydrothermal fluid circulation, consistent with the regional deformation architecture.

These elements will be refined within the updated Leapfrog 3D model.

Next Steps

Over the coming weeks, the Company will:

1. Integrate all drill assays and structural measurements,

2. Update lithological and alteration models, and

3. Prioritize targets for the next drill campaign.

CEO Commentary

"We are very pleased with the technical progress achieved thus far during this campaign. Early drilling results confirm the strength of the structural model and the potential to expand mineralized zones within and beyond the Zone B-structural corridor. Following the successful completion of our recent private placement, Stellar is well-positioned to accelerate both drilling and regional exploration. We look forward to delivering additional updates as assays and modelling work advance."

About the Tichka Est Gold Project

The Tichka Est Gold Project comprises seven permits covering an area of 82km 2 located in the High Altas region of Morocco approximately 90km south of Marrakech. Under an earn-in agreement with Morocco's National Office for Hydrocarbons and Mining (ONYHM) Stellar can earn an 85% interest after incurring exploration expenditures totaling US$2.39M (C$3.5M) over three years.

To date early-stage exploration (mapping, sampling, trenching and a small first pass RC drill program) has identified three gold-bearing zones: Zone A extending over 450 meters along strike, Zone B: extending over two kilometers along strike and Zone C extending over two kilometers along strike. Additionally, regional stream sediment sampling over a 12 km2 area surrounding the three known gold zones identified numerous other metal anomalous zones that warrant further mapping and sampling.  In total the following regions have been highlighted: 6 zones anomalous for gold, 5 zones anomalous for silver, 2 zones anomalous for copper and 3 zones anomalous for lead and zinc. Most areas of the seven permits have never received any modern exploration.
