Landore Resources Limited

Updated Independent Mineral Resource Estimates for Deposits on the

 Junior Lake Property, Northwestern Ontario, Canada

and Lifting of Suspension in Trading on AIM

London, United Kingdom - 22 January 2026 - Landore Resources Limited (AIM: LND) ("Landore Resources" or the "Company"), announces the receipt of an updated independent mineral resource estimate ("MRE") for its flagship BAM Gold Project on its 100%-owned Junior Lake Property in Northwestern Ontario, Canada ("BAM" or the "Project"), following the initiation of a growth strategy in 2024 to advance and de-risk this project. In conjunction with the updated MRE for BAM, independent updates of the key financial inputs and mineral resource estimates for the group's B-47 Nickel-Copper-Cobalt-PGE Deposit ("B-47") and the VW Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Deposit ("VW"), located within 2 kilometres of BAM, were also undertaken.

The updated MREs were completed in accordance with the 2019 CIM Best Practice Guidelines and compiled by SLR Consulting (Canada) Limited ("SLR"), a leading global consultancy firm serving the mining sector with significant experience of developing and reviewing mineral resource estimates for similar gold projects in Ontario and throughout Canada. The BAM MRE update was initiated in part to address substantial economic changes driven by global sociopolitical events since the issuance of the previous BAM MRE (effective as of 31 January 2022) on 8 February 2022 (the "2022 MRE") and subsequent preliminary economic assessment ("PEA") findings released on 9 May 2022, both of which were undertaken by Cube Consulting Pty Limited ("Cube"). The previous B-47 and VW MREs (effective as of 1 December 2017) were undertaken by Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. ("RPA") (acquired by SLR in 2019) and announced by the Company on 5 February 2018. The revised financial inputs integrate the upside of a strong prevailing gold price as well as the realities of increased operating and processing costs in Canada and, more specifically, northwest Ontario. Updating these inputs is essential to delivering a more accurate asset valuation.

The updated MRE for the BAM deposit integrated the results from exploration and resource definition work performed subsequent to the 2022 MRE. These works included the Company's 2025 resource drilling programme comprising 14 HQ diameter drill holes for a total of 3,549 metres and the 2025 infill sampling of 779 metres of drill core (648 samples) within the BAM resource.

As a result of the publication of the updated MREs, trading in the Company's ordinary shares on AIM will be restored with effect from 7.30 a.m. today.

Commenting today on the MRE updates, Landore Resources' CEO Alexander Shaw, said:

"Since I joined Landore Resources as CEO some 19 months ago, our strategy has been laser focused on better understanding the economic potential of our Junior Lake Property and optimising the value of the group's asset portfolio. We implemented targeted exploration work including a soil sampling programme, structural analysis, drilling and selective infill sampling to better understand and improve the definition of the identified mineralisation in the West and East ore bodies of the core BAM deposit, and I pledged to develop a credible updated MRE to reflect this work.

"The updated MREs have been carried out by SLR, recognised as a global leader in its field, which has provided a more robust understanding of the various Junior Lake deposits and significantly increases our confidence in the ore bodies. Although the headline Indicated and Inferred inside optimised pit resource estimates for BAM have fallen from the equivalent 2022 estimates, it is clear that the Company's potential remains undiminished with the latest MRE findings serving to de-risk BAM and augment our understanding of this flagship deposit as it stands today. The updated MREs have also highlighted that, in a world currently desperate for critical minerals, there is associated value in the base and platinum group metal deposits at B4-7 and VW. 

"Of particular significance, in light of the highly professional and methodical approach taken by SLR, we now have a flagship deposit in BAM which is not only better understood but also highly comparable to other gold deposits discovered in Ontario over the past three decades. The Company has historically reported a headline MRE based on an unconstrained global block model (approximately 1.496Moz) whereas SLR's work has been focused on compiling a CIM compliant MRE within an optimised pit shell. With approximately 622,000 Indicated gold ounces and 34,000 Inferred gold ounces, respectively, within an optimised pit shell in one of the most mining friendly jurisdictions in the world, management strongly believe that we now have a solid platform from which to grow the Company aggressively in an increasingly robust gold price environment.

"Landore Resources has discovered a regional scale orogenic gold system and we believe that there is considerably more gold to be defined within our current mining licence area, not only along strike and down dip of the current resource at BAM, but also in adjacent licences we hold, including Lamaune, Toronto Lake and the Eastern Extension."

Updated Mineral Resource Estimates

BAM Gold Project

SLR's updated CIM-compliant BAM MRE within an optimised pit shell (effective as of 16 January 2026) at a 0.21 g/t gold cut-off grade and at a long-term gold price of US$3,000/oz is outlined in Table 1 below:

Table 1: BAM Gold Deposit Mineral Resource Statement, 16 January, 2026  

The current BAM MRE of 622,300 oz Au Indicated and 33,700 oz Au Inferred is approximately 20.7 per cent. and 53.2 per cent. lower than the 2022 inside-pit equivalent estimates (785,000 oz Au Indicated and 72,000 oz Au Inferred). There are several factors which have contributed to such reduced estimates, namely:

1) New drilling, where some holes confirmed the 2022 down-dip projection interpretations while others did not.

2) Edits to the 2022 wireframes included adjusting thicknesses locally, snapping some wireframes to mineralised intervals, adding some mineralised intervals, and reducing the down-dip projections to a maximum of 100 m. The edits to the wireframes resulted in a reduction of the total wireframe volume.

3) In-fill sampling of unsampled portions of selected drill holes where the 2022 wireframe interpretations envisioned the continuation of the mineralisation. A total of 648 additional samples covering 779m of core were collected from a total of 40 drill holes. Save for one drill hole, the grades of the in-fill samples mostly did not confirm the previous grade interpretation in the block model.

4) Change in the gold price assumption from US$1,800/oz to US$3,000/oz. Combined with slight modifications to the operating cost estimates and the reporting basis, this resulted in a reduction of the cut-off grade from 0.30 g/t Au in 2022 to approximately 0.21 g/t Au in 2026.

5) A change in the capping value to a global 15 g/t Au.

6) Changes to the parent block size from 5 m (Y) x 25 m (X) x 25 m (Z) in 2022 to 3 m (Y) x 10 m (X) x 5 m (Z), and changes to the sub-block size from 1.25 m (Y) x 6.25 m (X) x 6.25 m (Z) to 1.5 m (Y) x 5 m (X) x 2.5 m (Z) to better reflect the narrow widths of many portions of the wireframes.

7) Change in the number of samples allowed for estimation from a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 16 to a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 12 (composite lengths are nominally 1 m) to better reflect the smaller block sizes, narrower widths, and reduce grade smearing.

8) Reduction in the search ellipse ranges from 120 m for pass 1 and 360 m for pass 2 to 55 m for pass 1 and 150 m for pass 2. The revised distances are supported by good variogram model fits.

9) Changes to the estimated operating costs from US$16.57/tonne in 2022 (C$23.15/tonne) to C$31.30/tonne in 2026.

Changes to the 2026 block model are estimated to be responsible for approximately 10% to 15% of the difference when compared with the 2022 MRE. Changes to the metallurgical recovery and operating cost assumptions largely account for the remaining disparity between the 2026 and 2022 MREs. These changes diminish the impact of the current strong gold price.

The above estimate is in respect of in-situ material at a base case price for gold of US$3,000/oz with the sensitivity of the mineral resources to the gold price illustrated in Tables 2 and 3 below.

Table 3: BAM Gold Deposit Sensitivity to the Gold Price, Inferred Resources

* Mineral Resource pit shell, US$3,000/oz Au

The updated MRE for BAM was prepared using available drill hole and sampling information as of 12 November 2025. Explicit mineralisation wireframe models were created for a total of 24 mineralised domains using a threshold value of 0.25 g/t Au and a minimum width of approximately three metres, representing that mineralisation having potential for excavation using an open pit mining method. A capping value of 15 g/t Au was applied to those assay values contained within all the mineralised wireframe domains, and the samples within the mineralised wireframes were subsequently composited to a length of one metre using the best fit compositing function in the Surpac software package.

An upright, non-rotated sub-blocked block model was created using a parent cell size of 3 m (Y) x 10 m (X) x 5 m (Z) with one level of sub-blocking to sizes of 1.5 m (Y) x 5 m (X) x 2.5 m (Z). Gold grades were estimated into the block model using the Ordinary Kriging interpolation algorithm for each mineralised domain separately using the capped, composited assay values and two estimation passes. Mineralisation outlined with drill holes at a nominal spacing of approximately 50 m and receiving estimated grades from the first estimation pass was initially assigned to the Indicated Mineral Resource category. Mineralisation outlined using the second estimation pass was initially assigned to the Inferred Mineral Resource category. Clipping polygons were applied to modify the initial classification categories so as to achieve consistent classification volumes. Mineral Resources are reported using an open pit shell generated using the Deswik software package at a gold price of US$3,000/oz and a pit-discard cut-off grade of 0.21 g/t Au.

The pre-existing MREs for Landore Resources' B4-7 and VW deposits were also updated by SLR in accordance with the 2019 CIM Best Practice Guidelines and using updated metal prices. The updated MREs are presented in Tables 4 and 5 below.

Total Mineral Resources

When compared to the previous independent MRE for B4-7 commissioned from RPA with an effective date of 1 December 2017 (the "2017 MRE"), the current mineral resource estimate includes slightly higher tonnages in the Inferred category in the open pit due to the inclusion of material from the far west of the deposit. The total mineral resources in the Indicated category have also increased slightly from the 3,292kt reported in the 2017 MRE.

From its review and evaluation of the B4-7 deposit, SLR has identified upside potential, which could potentially be brought into the MRE once the deposit's mineralisation wireframes and block model have been updated to reflect certain increased NSR values.

The updated MRE for VW has increased significantly to approximately 3.6Mt in the Indicated category (versus approximately 1.1Mt in the 2017 MRE) and approximately 0.5Mt in the Inferred category (versus approximately 0.2Mt in the 2017 MRE).

SLR's NI 43-101 Technical Report on the BAM, B4-7, and VW deposits are expected to be received by the Company by early March 2026.

Next Steps / Outlook

The updated MREs provide a more robust, independently reviewed resource base for the Company and will assist management in assessing the overall scale and characteristics of the Junior Lake Property and developing a viable path forward. All strategic options to generate shareholder returns are being considered, including developing Junior Lake further through additional targeted exploration, identifying and securing potential partners and a partial or full exit from the asset. Landore Resources currently intends to continue exploration activities at Junior Lake focusing on additional infill sampling of the existing core and the development of new drill targets within key mineralised structures.

Management is also planning a large-scale soil and outcrop sampling programme to be carried out by an external contractor. These activities will serve to further build a solid foundation for advancing the Junior Lake deposits and enhance the property's attractiveness to potential buyers and joint venture/development partners. As a mid-tier gold asset in a highly attractive mining jurisdiction with a full mining licence in place, the asset is well positioned to be a strategic potential bolt on acquisition for neighbouring gold producers and developers.

The Company is also planning to conduct a comprehensive review of current operations at its wholly-owned subsidiary, Landore Resources Canada, Inc., including the current management team and board, and plan to implement potential changes over the coming months as appropriate.
