One Bullion Completes Second Hole of 2026 Drilling Program at Vumba Gold Project

One Bullion Ltd (OBULF)

VUDD018 Completed as an Oblique Structural Test at Central–Makoba; Preliminary Logging Identifies Repeated Silica–Carbonate Alteration, Quartz–Carbonate Veining and Sulfides VUDD019 Underway as the Company Advances Approximately 3,000-Meter 2026 Program Toronto, Ontario – October 1, 2026 – One Bullion Ltd. (“One Bullion” or the “Company”) (TSXV: OBUL), a gold exploration company holding complete ownership of three highly prospective exploration projects in Botswana, today announced the completion of diamond drill hole VUDD018 at its wholly owned Vumba Gold Project in northeastern Botswana. VUDD018 marks the completion of the second hole of the Company’s approximately 3,000-meter 2026 diamond drilling program, with drilling now underway on the third hole, VUDD019. VUDD018 targeted the same Central–Makoba structure (VGT-01) as VUDD017, but was drilled as an oblique- angled hole, to cross the structure from a different direction. The goal was to test structural splays and intersections, vein stacking and possible controls on shoot geometry, while providing a second oriented-core view of the same system to build into the three-dimensional model. Highlights VUDD018 has been completed as the second hole of the 2026 program. The hole was designed as a 350- meter HQ drill hole, as an oblique structural test from 535,894 mE / 7,712,640 mN using 330° true / −60° planning geometry. Total depth of the hole was 350.85m. These observations are preliminary visual descriptions and do not establish gold grade, mineralized widths or economic significance. Preliminary lithological logging completed to date records an amphibolite-dominated sequence that is variably schistose, foliated and banded, with local carbonaceous, quartz-rich and garnetiferous intervals. Oxidized near-surface amphibolite passes into fresh rock at approximately 9.7 meters downhole. Alteration logging completed to date records repeated intervals of silicification and carbonate alteration, locally with chlorite, across multiple intervals. Sulfide logging identified arsenopyrite with lesser pyrite in disseminated, banded and vein- or veinlet occurrences. Quartz and quartz–carbonate veining is common in the logged portion of the hole, including irregular and folded vein sets and local brecciation. The drill has been moved to VUDD019 and has commenced testing a deeper northern portion of Central–Makoba on the property. Drillhole was oriented at 267° true north and −69° dip, with a planned total depth of 425 meters. This hole is designed to test whether the deeper hydrothermal and structural corridor observed in VUDD017 continues northward and at depth. “VUDD018 was deliberately drilled across the Target (VGT-01) from a different angle than VUDD017, and the preliminary logging is giving us an important second structural view of the system,” said Adam Berk, Chief Executive Officer of One Bullion. “With VUDD019 now underway as a deeper northern test, we are integrating the alteration, quartz–carbonate veining and sulfide styles observed in VUDD018 into our three-dimensional model, and laboratory assays remain essential to determining whether these visual hydrothermal features carry meaningful gold.” No assay results for VUDD018 are available. The geological descriptions in this release are based on visual core logging and do not establish gold grade, mineralized widths, or economic mineralization. Logged interval lengths are downhole lengths and true widths are unknown. VUDD018 — Central–Makoba Oblique Structural Hole VUDD018 was designed to complement VUDD017 by crossing the Central–Makoba structural package obliquely. Logging is still underway, and the observations below therefore summarize the current state of the geological record rather than the final full-hole log. About One Bullion One Bullion Ltd. (TSXV: OBUL) is a Toronto-based gold exploration company focused on advancing high-quality gold assets in Botswana, one of Africa’s most stable and mining-friendly jurisdictions.
