Highlights

• The table below summarises the most recent mineral resource estimate (dated 25 Marc h 2026, shaded green) and compares it to the prior published MRE (dated 01 September 2025, shaded blue) for the Haib Copper Project in southern Namibia.
• This updated MRE reflects (i) a significant increase in copper equivalent grade (CuEq%) mainly due to the inclusion of molybdenum (“Mo”) and gold (“Au”) by-products (ii) a significant increase in mineralised low-grade tonnage (iii) a significant increase in total contained Cu, Mo and Au and (iv) a significant reduction in stripping ratio.

•  Specifically: 18% and 23% CuEq% grade increase to 0.40% and 0.39% CuEq% in the high grade Indicated and hig h grade Inferred category, respectively (>0.25% Cu).
• 416% and 636% increase in total mineralised material in the low grade Indicated and Inferred category of 744Mt and 579Mt, respectively (>0.15% Cu).
• Stripping ratio reduced to 0.92x from 1.74x
• Total contained CuEq of 2,355kt in the Indicated category and 1,597kt in the Inferred category (744Mt @ 0.32% CuEq Indicated and 579Mt @ 0.28% Cu Inferred).
  • Total contained Cu of 2,090kt in the Indicated and 1,385kt in the Inferred category (744Mt @ 0.28% Cu Indicated and 579Mt @ 0.24% Cu Inferred).

  • Total contained Au of 488koz in the Indicated and 380koz in the Inferred category (744Mt @ 0.02g/t Indicated and 579Mt @ 0.02g/t Inferred)
• Ongoing drilling with 14 rigs to complete a 55,000m drill program by mid-2026.
• Excellent results from recently completed mineral sorting testwork (focusing on a combination of bulk ore and fine particle sorting) indicates potential for significant further grade uplift of processed mineralised material, thereby further enhancing the expected economics of the Haib project (improving both capital intensity and AISC).
• Preliminary Feasibility Study (“PFS”) planned to be published dur ing 4Q 2026.

Koryx Copper S.A. (TSX:KRY.V) (NSX:KYX) (OTCQB:KRYXF) is pleased to announce an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for its wholly-owned Haib Project, in southern Namibia. This Mineral Resource Statement represents an update to the previous statement that had an effective date of 01 September 2025 and was reported in an NI 43-101 Technical Report titled “Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Haib Copper Project, Namibia”.

Haib is a large-scale, advanced open-pit sulphide copper, molybdenum, and gold porphyry project with a small oxide cap. It has an envisaged average production rate 92,000tpa in clean concentrate over a 24-year mine life via a simple and low-risk open pit crushing/milling/f lotation process. The Company’s Preliminary Economic Assessment, dated September 2025, demonstrated the project to be technically and economically feasible with attractive economics and a simple, scalable, long-life and low-cost development strategy undergoing rapid advancement.

Heye Daun, Koryx Copper’s President and CEO commented: “We are very pleased with the large improvement and refinement of the Haib MRE, particularly the grade increase of the high grade portion to 0.40% CuEq (from 0.34% CuEq) coupled with the conversion of a large volume of material previously modelled as waste into lower grade mineralised material, thereby increasing the total copper inventory from 2.6Mt to 3.5Mt of contained copper whilst also reducing the expected stripping ratio from 1.74x to 0.92x.

The high-grade zone CuEq grade improvement was achieved primarily through the inclusion of by products (Mo and Au), and refined modelling of the high-grade portions of the mineral resource. That high-grade portion in the Indicated and Inferred category now represents over 15 years of life-of-mine, and with the addition of the substantially larger lower grade halo, the life-of-mine of the Haib project is expected to grow very significantly from its current 24 years to likely more than 35 years.

We will soon have 14 drill rigs on site aiming to complete 50,000m of additional infill and growth drilling before the middle of 2026. The results will be incorporated into another MRE update, which will serve as the basis for the PFS.

The combination of the (i) improved Cu grade in the high grade zones, (ii) establishment of Au and Mo indicated and inferred resources, (iii) reduced expected strip ratio, (iv) increased life-of-mine and (v) potential additional grade increase from mineral ore sorting, are expected to de liver a step-change improvement in overall project economics (both capital intensity and AISC) to be published as part of the 4Q 2026 PFS. The Haib deposit continues to grow, and demonstrate the scale and consistency required for a future large-scale copper producer.”

Haib Geology

Haib is Paleoproterozoic in age and is considered one of the oldest known porphyry copper deposits in the world. Disseminated copper mineralisation is contained within the porphyritic granodiorite, porphyritic andesite and associated breccias and is concentrated along a north-westerly structural trend that dips steeply to the southwest. Broad zones of copper mineralisation occur over a strike length of approximately 2 km that are commonly several hundreds of metres wide. Like many South American porphyries, Haib has a small oxide cap.

Mineralisation has been intersected by diamond drilling to a depth of 790 m below th e topographic surface. Copper mineralisation is predominantly chalcopyrite, however small amounts of supergene copper mineralisation in various mineralogical states occurs near surface to shallow depths (generally less than 10 m).

The MRE update has been produced by re-logging and refining of the geological interpretation and mineralisation controls, together with the new drilling results received since the previous model update of October 2024. This has resulted in an updated Mineral Resource Statement, with an effective date of 16 March 2026, based on an updated Mineral Resource model and a revised optimised pit shell.

Gold has been included in this update following metallurgical test-work allowing for assumed recovery to be applied. Additional Molybdenum assay results have also generated a better estimate for the by-product resource. Furthermore, using parameters aligned with the latest metallurgical results and assumptions, payabil ities and metal prices, a copper equivalent grade has been included in the Mineral Resource statement.

Haib Resource Modelling

A three-dimensional geological model of the copper mineralisation was constructed using all the drillhole sample data, creating multiple mineralised zones using a grade shell approach at various copper grade thresholds (>0.25%, 0.20-0.25%, 0.15-0.20%, 0.10-0.15% and <0.10%). This produced a nested grade shell model that accounts for all mineralisation currently defined in the resource area.

The model incorporated interpreted structural trends and geological domains that influence the mineralisation (Figure 1). The copper grade was estimated using the accepted historical and all Koryx data. Estimation of the grade of a three-dimensional block model was performed by ordinary kriging of five metre composite sample copper grades using Leapfrog Edge software. An average in-situ dry bu lk density value of 2.78 t/m³ was assigned to all blocks.

Haib Mineral Resource Statement

The Mineral Resource was estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Best Practice Guidelines and is reported in accordance with the 201 4 CIM Definition Standards, which have been incorporated by reference into National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

The Mineral Resource was reported from within an optimised pit shell. The project envisages an open-pit mining operation with flotation of sulphide mineralisation, and heap leach with solvent extraction, electrowinning (SX-EW) of oxide and transitional mineralisation.

The optimised pit shell was informed by mineralisation contained within the modelled 0.20% Cu grade shell. Blocks that occur within the pit-shell with estimated grade above 0.15% Cu satisfy marginal cut-off grade criteria and, together with the optimised pit shell, reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction (RPEEE) for the Mineral Resource has been demonstrated.

The assessment to satisfy the criteria of RPEEE is a high-level estimate and is not an attempt to estimate Mineral R eserves. A summary of the Mineral Resource estimate is presented in Table 1.

Notes:

1. All tabulated data have been rounded and as a result minor computational errors may occur.
2. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, have no demonstrated economic viability. There is no guarantee that that all or any part of the Mineral Resource will be converted into a Mineral Reserve. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by geology, environment, permitting, legal title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
3. Mt = Million tonnes, kt = thousand tonnes, Mlbs = Million pounds.
4. The Mineral Resource Statement for Haib as of 16 March 2026 is reported at a cut-off grade of 0.15% Cu within a conceptual pit shel l using the following assumed parameters:
   • Copper Price 9,300 USD/t. Molybdenum price 43,860 USD/t. Gold Price 2,800 USD/oz.
   • Royalty and Export Levy: 4%, Copper payability: 97.5%, Molybdenum payability 90.0%, Gold payability 95%.
   • Overall slope angle: 45° for Fresh, 42° for Oxide and Transitional.
   • Sulphide recovery flotation: 89% Cu, 55% Mo, 40% Au. Heap Leach recovery 85%.
   • Mining Cost at pit rim USD/tonne: 2.07 (additional 0.008 USD/tonne per metre depth from pit rim).
   • Processing Cost USD/tonne ore processed: 6.57 Flotation, 5.21 Heap Leach, solvent extraction and electro winning (SX-EW).
   • SG&A Overheads 0.47 USD/tonne ore processed.
5. The copper equivalent calculation uses the following formula for price contribution of each metal in one tonne relative to copper.
   (Cu grade * Cu Price * Cu Recovery * Cu payability + Au grade * Au Price * Au Recovery * Au payability + Mo grade * Mo Price * Mo Recovery * Mo payability) / (Cu grade * Cu Price * Cu Recovery * Cu payability) * Cu grade,
   Cu Price = USD 10,000/t, Mo Price + USD 50,000/t, Au Price = USD 4000/oz,
   Cu Recovery = 87.5% Mo Recovery = 55% Au Recovery = 50%,
   Cu Payability = 97.5%, Mo Payability = 90% Au Payability = 95%,
   Recoveries are assumed from preliminary metallurgical testwork for bulk concentrate production.

About Koryx Copper S.A.

Koryx Copper S.A. is a Luxembourg domiciled copper development Company focused on advancing its 100% owned Haib Copper Project in Namibia whilst also building a portfolio of co pper exploration licenses in Zambia. Haib is a large, advanced (PEA-stage) copper/molybdenum/gold porphyry deposit in southern Namibia with a long history of exploration and project development by multiple operators.

More than 120,000m of drilling has been conducted at Haib since the 1970’s with significant exploration programs led by companies including Falconbridge (1964), Rio Tinto (1975) and Teck (2014). Extensive metallurgical testing and various technical studies have also been completed at Haib to date. Additional studies are underway aiming to demonstrate Haib as a future long-life, low-cost, low-risk open pit, sulphide flotation copper project with the potential for additional copper production from heap leaching.

Mineralisation at Haib is typical of a porphyry copper deposit and is dominantly chalcopyrite with minor bornite and chalcocite present and only minor secondary copper minerals at surface due to the arid envir onment. Haib is one of only a few examples of a Paleoproterozoic porphyry copper deposit in the world and one of only two in southern Africa (both in Namibia). Due to its age, the deposit has been subjected to multiple metamorphic and deformation events but still retains many of the classic mineralisation and alteration features typical of these deposits. The mineralisation is dominantly chalcopyrite with minor bornite and chalcocite present and only minor secondary copper minerals at surface due to the arid environment.
