Angkor Resources Undertakes IP Survey Over Copper/Iron Skarn Adjacent to Canada Wall Copper Porphyry Target, Andong Meas License, Cambodia

15:00 Uhr  |  The Newswire
GRANDE PRAIRIE, March 31, 2026 - Angkor Resources Corp. (TSXV: ANK) ("ANGKOR" OR "THE COMPANY") announces the commencement of a 20 line-kilometre Induced Polarization ("IP") geophysical survey over the Gossan Hills target on its Andong Meas mineral exploration license in Ratanakiri Province, Cambodia. The survey is centered south of the Company's Canada Wall porphyry copper target and is designed to detect sulphide mineralization at depth - advancing one of Angkor's most compelling mineral targets toward a drill decision.

THE IP SURVEY

The survey employs a dipole-dipole IP configuration, a method that measures chargeability - the tendency of certain minerals to briefly store and release an electrical charge when stimulated. Sulphide minerals, the primary host of copper, zinc, and related metals, exhibit strong chargeability responses that are readily distinguishable from barren country rock. Along each of the eight survey lines, the data will be processed into 2-D cross-sectional images of the subsurface, giving the exploration team a picture of the distribution, depth, and geometry of any sulphide-bearing zones before a drill bit is turned. The total survey covers 20 line-kilometres with 2,500-metre lines.

Dennis Ouellette, VP Exploration, states: "The survey is centered over the Gossan Hills occurrence south of the Canada Wall porphyry copper target. I'm excited about the potential results."

The survey is expected to take approximately eight to ten days, weather permitting.

GOSSAN HILLS: TARGET GEOLOGY

The Gossan Hills consists of a northwest-trending sub-cropping of calcareous metasediments - carbonate-bearing rocks that have been metamorphosed and are known to be highly reactive to the mineralizing fluids associated with copper porphyry systems - forming a wide syncline (a downward-arching fold in the rock layers) into which the intrusive complex hosting the Canada Wall copper porphyry target has intruded.

The result is a skarn - a mineralized zone formed when hot, metal-bearing fluids from an intrusion react with surrounding carbonate rocks, precipitating ore minerals in the process. As Dennis Ouellette describes it: "The Gossan Hills skarn is several hundreds of metres long and geochemically graduates from iron oxide (goethite, limonite) at the southern, more distal end to massive magnetite, then zinc-lead, and finally more copper-rich at the northern, more proximal end." This systematic geochemical zonation - from distal iron oxides toward proximal copper - is a classic indicator of a well-developed, potentially economic skarn system.

The metasediments dip approximately 35 degrees eastward, toward a deep, strong magnetic anomaly outlined by the 2022 ground magnetic survey. This geometry - surface mineralization dipping toward a subsurface magnetic high - is consistent with a sulphide-rich body at depth and provides the primary rationale for the IP survey.

The geological interpretation of Gossan Hills has received independent scientific support. A recent paper by ITC researchers attending the Department of Earth Resources Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Kyushu University (Sokmeng Ni, Kimhouy Oy, et al.) concludes that the presence of minerals including andradite, actinolite, epidote, chlorite, magnetite, and various sulphides "suggests a potential association with skarn-type or sulfide-related mineralization" and that "Gossan Hills is a promising target for further exploration, particularly for porphyry-skarn-related or polymetallic sulfide (Cu-Fe-Zn) deposits."

ITC PARTNERSHIP AND LOCAL EMPLOYMENT

The IP survey crew is led by a team from the Institute of Technology of Cambodia ("ITC"), comprising one professor and three students from its geoscience program. A fourth ITC student will participate in the data interpretation phase, with the results forming the basis of a fifth-year thesis - contributing to the development of Cambodia's national capacity in applied geophysics. Angkor Gold employees are working alongside the ITC crew as surveyors and line cutters, and ten local community members have been engaged to assist with cable layout and receiver installation in the field.

The ITC collaboration on the Andong Meas mineral program runs parallel to a recently announced partnership between ITC and Angkor's energy subsidiary EnerCam, where students are receiving hands-on training in seismic interpretation tied directly to the Block VIII oil and gas exploration program. Together, these programs reflect the Company's commitment to building a skilled Cambodian technical workforce as an integral part of its exploration activities.

ABOUT ANGKOR RESOURCES CORPORATION:

ANGKOR Resources Corp. is a public company, listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange, and is a leading resource optimizer in Cambodia working towards mineral and energy solutions across Cambodia.

The company's mineral subsidiary, Angkor Gold Corp. in Cambodia holds two mineral exploration licenses in Cambodia with multiple prospects in copper and gold. Both licenses are in their first two-year renewal term.

Its Cambodian energy subsidiary, EnerCam Resources, was granted an onshore oil and gas license of 7300 square kilometres in the southwest quadrant of Cambodia called Block VIII. The company then removed all parks and protected areas and added 220 square kilometres, making the license area just over 4095 square kilometres. EnerCam is actively advancing oil and gas exploration activities onshore to meet its mission to prove Cambodia as an oil and gas producing Nation. Having completed seismic in 2025, the Company has identified multiple drill targets and advances an Environmental Impact Assessment and drilling plans to drill Cambodia's first onshore oil & gas exploratory wells.
