Gorge Project - 2026 Work Programme Progress

 Highlights

 ·      2026 work programme at the Gorge Project has commenced.

 ·      Airborne LiDAR and aerial photography survey completed ahead of
 schedule.

 ·      Airborne magnetic and radiometric survey has commenced.

 ·      Field reconnaissance underway to validate historical rock chip
 results, drill hole and workings locations in addition to completing an
 orientation soil geochemical survey.

 GEO Exploration Limited (AIM: GEO) is pleased to announce the commencement of
 the 2026 work programme for the Gorge Project in Western Australia, as part of
 its ongoing exploration activities.

 Planned airborne geophysical surveys include: magnetic, radiometric, LiDAR and
 aerial photography surveys. These datasets will support detailed mapping of
 historical workings and deriving a litho-structural interpretation to assist
 target generation.

 Acquisition of the high-resolution LIDAR and aerial photography survey was
 successfully completed by Aerometrex Ltd ahead of schedule.  LiDAR is a
 high-precision remote sensing method that uses laser pulses to generate
 high-resolution and detailed three-dimensional digital terrain model (DTM) of
 surface topography. This technique enables the identification of subtle
 topographical and geological features such as historical workings locations
 and are critical for exploration programme planning and analysis. The LIDAR
 data will be used to refine priority target areas and advance towards a maiden
 drilling campaign at Gorge Project.

 Acquisition of the fixed wing magnetic and radiometric survey has now
 commenced by MAGSPEC Airborne Surveys Pty Ltd. This data will facilitate a
 litho-structural geological interpretation of the project area and provide a
 valuable input in guiding drill targeting and proposed geochemical survey
 design.

 Field-based geological activities have commenced. The crew has established
 access and is currently camped at the project. Geological reconnaissance
 activities will include validation of historical geochemical results,
 confirmation of historic workings and drill locations, and detailed mapping to
 better understand controls on mineralisation.

 An orientation soil geochemical survey will be completed over known areas of
 surface gold mineralisation. This work is aimed at refining analytical methods
 and survey design for the proposed programme that will test the approximately
 5km strike of historical workings.

 The company looks forward to providing updates to the market as results flow
 from the work programmes at the Gorge Project.

 Callum Baxter, GEO's Technical Consultant, commented

 "I am excited to see the team on the ground as work programmes commence at the
 highly prospective Gorge Project. Given the historical results and extensive
 gold mineralisation observed on surface the project is considered a high
 priority."

 Tom Harris, GEO's Exploration Manager, commented

 "I am pleased with the progress the team is making at the Gorge Project. The
 collection of the airborne surveys in parallel with on ground geological
 activities are the first steps in a staged geoscience driven exploration
 programme designed to generate high priority drill targets. I wish to thank
 Callum Baxter for his continued oversight and assistance in the programme
 design and execution."

 Omar Ahmad, Chief Executive Officer of GEO Exploration Limited, commented

 "I am very pleased that the Gorge Project is progressing ahead of schedule.
 The historical data reviewed to date is genuinely encouraging, and we are now
 focused on further validating what we believe could represent a working
 mineralised system.

 Iwould like to thank Callum Baxter and Tom Harris for their continued focus
 and technical execution, which have been instrumental in driving the project
 forward, and we look forward to updating shareholders as further results are
 received."

 Gorge Project Overview

 The Gorge Project (Exploration Licence E08/3737), located approximately 110km
 west of Paraburdoo in Western Australia, covers an area of 81 square
 kilometres within the Proterozoic aged Capricorn Orogen. GEO recently acquired
 the licence, through its 100% owned subsidiary Gorge Gold Pty Ltd. The Gorge
 project is considered highly prospective for large scale gold systems of
 Orogenic-type or Carlin-type.

 Limited historical exploration at Gorge has identified widespread gold
 mineralisation across the licence area. Gold occurrences have been recorded
 over approximately 5km of strike, supported by drainage, soil and rock chip
 sampling, historic workings, and alluvial and eluvial gold mining.

 Historical results include:

 ·      Rock chip samples returning gold values up to 134g/t Au

 ·      Soil samples returning gold values up to 233g/t Au

 ·      Drainage sampling returning elevated gold values

 ·      Recovery of multiple gold nuggets from near surface, ranging from
 <2g to in excess of 100g

 These results along with the proximity of the nugget recoveries suggests the
 potential presence of a primary bedrock gold source within the licence area.
