CALGARY, ALBERTA, August 13, 2025 – TheNewswire - Kairos Gold Inc. (“Kairos Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the results of its Phase 2 drilling program at the Las Garillas project and announce an adjustment to the timeline for its planned public listing on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”).

 

Building on the strong results from the Phase 2 drilling at the Las Garillas project, located in central Chile, the Company has extended the TSX-V listing timeline to integrate these results into an updated NI 43-101 technical report. Management views this as a value-accretive step intended to enhance the Company’s market positioning at the time of listing.

 

Phase 2 Drilling Highlights:

The Phase 2 drilling program at Oro Brillante, a 100-hectare internal claim positioned within the southeastern corner of the Las Garillas claims, has significantly advanced the geological understanding of the gold-bearing zones and gold resource potential. Program highlights include:

• Completion of five diamond drill holes totaling 1,516.5 metres, successfully intersecting key mineralized zones and providing essential geological data to refine follow-up drilling. 

• Ongoing 3D geological modeling which has highlighted significant near-surface mineralized zones. 

• The majority of intercepts occur within 50-metres of surface, a favourable depth profile for potential open-pit extraction which can enhance project economics and support efficient development scenarios. 

Notable Phase 2 intercepts include:

• OB-01-25: 25.8 m @ 1.90 g/t Au, including 5.96 m @ 5.79 g/t Au and 1.96 m @ 8.35 g/t Au. 

• OB-02-25: 31.60 m @ 1.13 g/t Au, including 3.60 m @ 3.27 g/t Au. 

• OB-03-25: 21.40 m @ 3.16 g/t Au, including 4.00 m @ 8.91 g/t Au. 

 

Next Steps & Path to Listing:

The Company is finalizing an updated NI 43-101 technical report that will integrate the recently completed Phase 2 drill results and surface geochemical sampling data. This updated report will form a key component of the Company’s final submissions to the TSX Venture Exchange in connection with its listing application. Once complete, the full report will be available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+. Upon Exchange approval, Kairos Gold is poised to enter the public markets with an updated NI 43-101 technical report that reflects its exploration successes under the ticker symbol ‘KRS’ on the TSX-V Exchange.

 

“The Phase 2 drilling results clearly demonstrate the exciting potential at Las Garillas,” said Michelle DeCecco, CEO of Kairos Gold. “Notably, these results are from only a small portion of the Las Garillas claims, which is just one of five projects in our portfolio. Updating the technical report to be published before listing will provide investors with a clear, data-backed view of the project’s potential from the outset of being a publicly traded Company.”
