Board of Directors Approves Construction Decision

Cabral Gold Inc. (TSX-V: CBR) (OTCQB: CBGZF) is pleased to announce that the Company has executed a gold loan agreement with Precious Metals Yield Fund, (with a principal amount of US$45,000,000 and a term ending 39 months from the first drawdown date with the full amount to be repaid no later than December 31, 2028. The Company expects to use the proceeds of the Gold Loan to fully fund the capex for the Cuiú Cuiú Heap Leach gold starter project, which is estimated at US$37.7 million in the Company’s Pre-feasibility study released on July 29, 2025. Drawdown of the Gold Loan is expected within weeks and is subject to the registration of security interests in favor of the Lender in accordance with the binding Gold Loan agreement.

With the Project now fully funded through this commitment, the Company is also pleased to announce that its Board of Directors have approved a “decision to construct” for the Project. With approximately C$70 million in the treasury on drawdown of the Gold Loan, the Company will accelerate its early works program into full construction mode in support of the first gold pour by the end of 2026. Additionally, the financial flexibility provided by this Gold Loan and the recent equity raise of C$14.9 million (see press release dated May 6, 2025) will allow the Company to continue to execute its regional exploration drilling program at Cuiú Cuiú during the construction of the Project.

Alan Carter, Cabral’s President and CEO commented, “This Gold Loan agreement is a monumental step forward for our Company and provides a complete funding solution for the construction of our heap leach starter project, without any significant further dilution to our capital structure. The financial metrics included within the recent PFS study make for a compelling opportunity, with a capex cost of US$37.7M, a post tax IRR of 78%, an NPV₅ of US$74M and a payback of just 10 months, at a base case gold price of US$2500 / oz.

The Gold Loan agreement also allows us to continue our program of exploration drilling during the construction period and beyond. This program is aimed at expanding the much larger underlying hard rock resource base at Cuiú Cuiú. Following the commencement of commercial production in Q4, 2026, this exploration drill program will expand to test the more than 50 targets so far identified across the Cuiú Cuiú district, and is expected to be self-funding.

Cabral’s board of directors has formally approved commencement of construction of the gold-in-oxide starter project, which is expected to take 12 months to complete.”

Project Financing and Initial Capital

The US$45 million in proceeds from the Gold Loan financing fully funds the initial capital costs to develop the Project based on the Updated Pre-Feasibility Study prepared by Ausenco earlier this year and released on July 29, 2025 (the “Updated PFS”). The results of this study indicated that an attractive opportunity exists to monetize the gold in surface oxide blankets at Cuiú Cuiú. With a 1 Mtpa capacity Heap Leach plant, the Project has a 6.2-year mine life, producing gold at an all-in-sustaining operating cost of US$1,210 per ounce. The investment is modest, with capital costs estimated at US$37.7 million, of which approximately US$3 million has been invested to date in early works activities. Commissioning of the Project is planned for Q3 2026, with production scheduled for Q4 2026.

The Project returns an IRR of 78% and an NPV₅ of US$74 million, with a project payback period of 10 months at the base case gold price of US$2,500 per ounce (see press release dated July 29, 2025). The financial appeal of the Project has greatly increased since the release of the Updated PFS, following the recent substantial rise in gold prices.

The Gold Loan provides capital at a very attractive cost of capital, especially in relation to the forecast returns of the Project. It also provides Cabral with the security of locking in the current gold price for all debt service obligations and allows the Company to continue its exploration drilling program during the Gold Loan period.

Construction Decision

The Board of Directors of the Company has approved a “decision to construct” for the Project. From 1^st November, the Project is expected to transition from the early works phase to the formal construction program. As part of the early works activities, detailed engineering and procurement are well underway, as is the hiring of the Project implementation team under Luiz Celaro, Cabral’s Construction Manager. The construction schedule includes a key milestone of completing earthworks and civil works on the production plateau by the end of 2025.

Plant commissioning is scheduled for Q3, 2026, with production scheduled to follow in Q4 2026.
