FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
26 March 2026
Amigo Resources PLC
("Amigo" or the "Company")
Proposed Joint Development Agreement - Tanzanian Gold Projects
Amigo Resources PLC (LSE: AMGO) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned
subsidiary incorporated in the UAE, Azima Holdings Limited ("Azima"), is
moving forward with the operational development of the Negero-Kilimamzinga and
Mazoka gold projects ("Project") in the Tanga Region of Tanzania.
The Project will be executed through Kabete Minerals Company Limited
("Kabete"), a company incorporated under the laws of Tanzania, which is 51%
owned by Azima.
To support this transition into active development, Azima has established an
exclusive framework through a Joint Development Agreement ("Agreement") with
its technical collaborator, AK Corporation - FZCO ("Technical Partner") for
the development, exploration and commercial exploitation of the Project.
The Technical Partner is an integrated enabler of the development process,
providing the specialised operational execution required to transition the
Project into a commercial-scale producer. The Technical Partner will lead
operational execution, including licence and regulatory management, geological
oversight, plant design and construction, site management, HSE compliance, and
monthly technical reporting.
Azima will provide a minimum of USD1.2 million in operational funding to the
Project over the next 12 months.
The Project comprises multiple prospecting licences covering a confirmed land
area of around 159.11 km², with additional contiguous licences forming a
district-scale exploration package within the Kilindi-Handeni Goldfields.
There is some artisanal mining ongoing in parts of the Project area.
· In line with our usual processes, the exploration programme included
the following components:
· High-resolution airborne magnetics and radiometrics surveys,
conducted to map subsurface features and identify potential mineralisation
zones;
· Ground geophysical surveys, including induced polarisation and
resistivity, carried out in selected areas to further delineate targets of
interest;
· Regional and detailed soil geochemistry sampling, provided insights
into the distribution of gold and associated elements across the Project area;
· Reverse Circulation drilling, implemented to test subsurface
anomalies and evaluate mineralised zones;
· Diamond drilling, conducted to obtain core samples for detailed
geological and structural analysis; and
· Geological mapping and trenching, performed to enhance understanding
of surface geology and assist in target generation.
The drilling campaign at the Project has been comprehensive, with a total of
167 drill holes completed across the project area with a total depth of over
21km.
Commenting on the Agreement, Craig Ransley, Executive Chair of Amigo Resources
PLC, said: "Azima's commencement of development at Kabete marks a significant
step forward in the Group's strategy to develop high-potential gold assets in
Tanzania. By partnering with an experienced technical operator, we are
positioning Kabete for efficient execution and value creation. Pilot-scale
production is currently underway, with approximately 5 kg of gold production
expected in April 2026."
