Company remains debt free; having repaid $5.3 million to Banco Santander in Brazil during Q1-2026.Installation of the 4th ball mill at Palito Complex progressing on time and budget, expected to be operational by Q4-2026 and will increase annual processing throughput to 330ktpa in 2027.The full transition from selective open stoping to mechanised sublevel stoping at Coringa remains on track for Q4-2026.Coringa Mine currently operates under a 3-year GUIA licence which expires on January 29, 2027. Discussions are ongoing with the Agência Nacional de Mineração (“ANM”), regarding the possible extension of the current GUIA.For the full mining licence (“LI”) at Coringa, the Company requires a change of land use approval from the Instituto Nacional de Colonização e Reforma Agrária (“INCRA”) as well as the approval of the Estudo de Componente Indígena (“ECI”) from FUNAI, which are both progressing well. Successful site visit by the local Indigenous communities to Coringa occurred on July 17, 2026.Change of land use is in the final stage, requiring approvals by INCRA at the state and federal levels.Based on the assumption that the LI will be awarded by Q4-2026, the Company remains on track to deliver FY2026 consolidated production in excess of a record 53,000 ounces gold.Mike Hodgson, CEO of Serabi, commented:Get the latest headlines, breaking news and columns.By signing up you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.A welcome email is on its way.

This performance was broadly in line with budget with quarterly production expected to increase in the second half of the year. Despite lower realised gold prices in Q2, development of the Galena and Serra South zone at Coringa and approximately $4 million of one-time G&A and tax charges, Serabi ended the quarter with an increased cash balance of $66 million following record cash generation in Q1 while maintaining a debt-free balance sheet. Operationally, Coringa continued to perform strongly, with milled grades of 7.41g/t gold. The move to mechanized sublevel open stoping method has continued, which the Company anticipates will be complete by year end bringing benefits to cost, output and safety. Development of the third zone at Coringa, Galena, is advancing well. A fourth zone at Coringa, Serra South, which was a significant discovery from the 2025 brownfield exploration programme, had development initiated during the quarter. At Palito Complex, production was impacted by milled grades averaging 5.26 g/t Au YTD, compared to over 6 g/t Au in FY2025. Activity continued across several established zones, with development focused on G3. Stoping is expected to recommence at G3 in the second half, which should support improved grades and production.We continue to make steady progress on the LI at Coringa. The LI is issued by SEMAS, the state environmental agency, who in turn are awaiting two approvals; the ‘change of land use’ from the land registry body, INCRA which has been technically approved at both state and federal levels and now awaits final legal sign off. The second approval required by SEMAS is from FUNAI, the Indigenous government agency, who need to protocol the approval of the Estudo de Componente Indígena (ECI or Indigenous Impact Study). Since the ECI was physically presented and positively received by the Indigenous communities in March 2026, numerous consultations have taken place including a successful second site visit by the local Indigenous communities to Coringa Mine on 17 July 2026.During the quarter the Company released updated reserve estimates and resource estimates for the Palito Complex and Coringa Mine, based on the approximately 38,000 metres drilled in 2025. In only our first year of Phase 2, our consolidated M&I resource increased to 731koz Au and our consolidated inferred resource to 653koz Au, which is more than half-way towards our growth target.This advertisement has not loaded yet.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.Looking ahead, Serabi remains in a strong cash position with zero debt and multiple organic growth catalysts expected later this year. This includes the Palito Complex plant expansion which remains on track and on budget for completion by Q4-2026 and the transition to mechanized sublevel open stoping method at Coringa targeted for year end. We expect our production profile will increase sequentially through the remainder of the year and anticipate another record year of production in 2026, with production guidance in excess of 53,000 ounces.” SUMMARY PRODUCTION STATISTICS FOR 2026 AND 2025 Qtr. 1Qtr. 2YTDQtr. 1Qtr. 2Qtr. 3Qtr. 4Fiscal 20262026202620252025202520252025 Group Gold production (1)(2) Ounces12,04211,00723,04910,01310,53212,09011,53444,169 Mined oreTonnes54,96559,094114,05844,92452,03251,62555,899204,480 Gold grade (g/t)7.066.196.617.096.727.246.656.91 Milled oreTonnes54,58757,122111,70948,15551,24653,99155,607208,899 Gold grade (g/t)7.056.216.626.706.677.186.636.80 Horizontal devel.Metres4,1553,9038,0573,5053,8503,7064,53515,596 Palito Complex Gold production (1)(2)Ounces4,5923,4698,0614,6665,6075,2464,63820,158 Mined oreTonnes25,20125,84551,04525,26729,29426,35227,129108,042 Gold grade (g/t)5.884.555.216.156.226.295.486.04 Milled oreTonnes24,97724,54749,52324,32829,88527,08127,226108,521 Gold grade (g/t)5.904.625.266.256.156.255.476.03 Horizontal devel.Metres1,8821,9633,8451,9792,0042,1252,1618,269 Coringa Gold production (1)(2)Ounces7,4507,53814,9885,3474,9256,8436,89524,010 Mined oreTonnes29,76433,25063,01319,65722,73825,27328,77096,438 Gold grade (g/t)8.067.467.748.317.358.237.747.04 Milled oreTonnes29,61032,57562,18523,82721,36126,90928,381100,479 Gold grade (g/t)8.017.417.707.177.398.137.757.64 Horizontal devel.Metres2,2731,9404,2131,5261,8461,5812,3747,327 (1) The table may not sum due to rounding.

The balance was the ramp, crosscuts and stope preparation development.The Coringa Mine continues to perform well. On the Serra zone, production was focused on the levels of 260m, 190m, 158m, 143m, 125m, and 106m, with development on levels 170m, 158m, 126m, 104m and 88m. On the Meio zone, development is focused on level 271m and stoping ongoing on levels 336m and 286m.The new Galena zone is in development with the main ramp currently at the 249m level and sill drive development on levels 285m and 269m.Coringa Mine operates under the terms of the 3-year GUIA licence which permits the transportation of 100,000 tonnes of ore per year as previously reported.Palito Complex production and development is varied, with production from the Barrichello, G3, and Piquet zones. Development is ongoing on the Senna and G3 veins, ranging from levels -15m down to -210m level on G3. Cash balance at the end of June 2026 was $65.7 million. During Q1-2026, the Company fully repaid its $5.3 million unsecured loan arrangement with Banco Santander and is now debt free.FY2026 PRODUCTION GUIDANCEThe Company has made assumptions that the LI will be awarded by Q4-2026, and on that basis maintains FY2026 consolidated production in excess of 53,000 ounces gold.About Serabi Gold plcSerabi Gold plc is a gold exploration, development and production company focused on the prolific Tapajós region in Para State, northern Brazil. The Company has consistently produced 30,000 to 40,000 ounces per year with the Palito Complex and is planning to double production in the coming years with the ramp up of the Coringa Mine. Serabi Gold plc recently made a copper-gold porphyry discovery on its extensive exploration licence. The Company is headquartered in the United Kingdom with a secondary office in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.The information contained within this announcement is deemed by the Company to constitute inside information as stipulated under the Market Abuse Regulations (EU) No. 596/2014 as it forms part of UK Domestic Law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.The person who arranged for the release of this announcement on behalf of the Company was Andrew Khov, Vice President, Head of Investor Relations & Business Development.SERABI GOLD plcMichael Hodgson t +44 (0)20 7246 6830Chief Executive m +44 (0)7799 473621Colm Howlin Chief Financial Officer m +353 89 6078171Andrew Khov m +1 647 885 4874Vice President, Head of Investor Relations & Business Development e contact@serabigold.comBEAUMONT CORNISH LimitedNominated Adviser & Financial AdviserRoland Cornish / Michael Cornish t +44 (0)20 7628 3396PEEL HUNT LLPJoint UK BrokerRoss Allister / Georgia Langoulant t +44 (0)20 7418 9000TAMESIS PARTNERS LLPJoint UK BrokerCharlie Bendon / Richard Greenfield t +44 (0)20 3882 2868CAMARCOFinancial PR – EuropeGeorgia Edmonds / Fergus Young t +44 (0)20 3757 4980Assay ResultsAssay results reported within this release include those provided by the Company’s own on-site laboratory facilities at Palito and have not yet been independently verified. Serabi closely monitors the performance of its own facility against results from independent laboratory analysis for quality control purpose. As a matter of normal practice, the Company sends duplicate samples derived from a variety of the Company’s activities to accredited laboratory facilities for independent verification. Since mid-2019, over 10,000 exploration drill core samples have been assayed at both the Palito laboratory and certified external laboratory, in most cases the ALS laboratory in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. When comparing significant assays with grades exceeding 1 g/t gold, comparison between Palito versus external results record an average over-estimation by the Palito laboratory of 6.7% over this period. Based on the results of this work, the Company’s management are satisfied that the Company’s own facility shows sufficiently good correlation with independent laboratory facilities for exploration drill samples. The Company would expect that in the preparation of any future independent Reserve/Resource statement undertaken in compliance with a recognized standard, the independent authors of such a statement would not use Palito assay results without sufficient duplicates from an appropriately certificated laboratory.Forward-looking statementsCertain statements in this announcement are, or may be deemed to be, forward looking statements.
