Interim Results

Talon Resources plc (AIM: TAR), the North American gold exploration company, is pleased to announce its Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2026.

OVERVIEW

• Completed the acquisition of a 90% interest in the Eagle Lake gold project in Ontario, Canada (“Eagle Lake” or the “Project”) and commenced trading on AIM as Talon Resources plc on 23 June 2026 (“Admission”) following the cancellation of the Company’s Main Market listing.
• Commenced Phase 1 exploration at Eagle Lake immediately following Admission, confirming gold mineralisation across several targets and identifying a new prospect.
• Brought forward and expanded the maiden drilling programme with results expected to inform the next phase of exploration at Eagle Lake.
• Continued partnership with MINML to support exploration targeting using its PRISM machine-learning platform.
• Assessing opportunities to expand Talon’s presence in the Wabigoon Subprovince and across North America.

CHAIR’S STATEMENT

The six months to 30 June 2026 was a period of significant activity for the Company, culminating in the cancellation of our Main Market listing and Admission on 23 June 2026, alongside the acquisition of a 90% interest in Eagle Lake.

Much of the period was therefore focused on completing these transactions, which marked a change in strategy for the Company and a new focus on gold exploration in North America. Eagle Lake, in Ontario’s Wabigoon Subprovince, is our first project and provides the foundation from which we intend to build a broader exploration business.

Eagle Lake

Although Admission came only a week before the period end, work at Eagle Lake began almost immediately, with our Phase 1 exploration programme commencing on 29 June 2026. This included detailed channel sampling of mineralised outcrops, trenches and bedrock exposures, alongside systematic prospecting across eight target areas.

Results from this programme after the period end provided an encouraging start. Gold mineralisation was confirmed across several known targets, and a new prospect was identified at Moss Knoll. At East Fornieri Bay, channel sampling returned 1.85m at 7.17 g/t Au, including 0.50m at 24.40 g/t Au, and 4.80m at 4.47 g/t Au, including 1.00m at 19.10 g/t Au. At Cedar Trench, sampling returned 5.70m at 1.26 g/t Au, including 1.70m at 3.15 g/t Au, with visible coarse free gold also identified, while Moss Knoll returned 8.00m at 0.67 g/t Au, including 3.20m at 1.10 g/t Au.

The results gave us the confidence to bring forward our maiden drilling programme and increase its scope beyond the initial 1,000 metres. The expanded 1,375 metre diamond drilling programme commenced at East Fornieri Bay in early September 2026, where five holes were completed targeting the vein array identified during Phase 1 channel sampling.

Drilling has since been completed at Cedar Trench, with a further four holes drilled, and the rig has now moved to West Fornieri Bay. Two holes are planned here to test the area of historic drilling, including the twinning of historic drill hole R-85-12, before the rig progresses to Moss Knoll, a new target identified during Phase 1 exploration and interpreted to lie on the mineralised trend between Fornieri Bay and Parker Shear.

Core is being processed and submitted for assay as drilling progresses through ActLabs' certified facility in Dryden, approximately 25 kilometres from Eagle Lake. The results will be integrated with our geological data and MINML's analysis to further refine targeting at Eagle Lake ahead of the planned Phase 2 drilling programme.

MINML Partnership and Wider Strategy

Alongside the work on the ground, our partnership with MINML is an important part of our approach to exploration. Its PRISM machine-learning platform can analyse large volumes of geological data and has been applied to both our Phase 1 results and historical data from Eagle Lake, helping our geological team refine targets and drill-hole positioning.

The relationship also extends beyond Eagle Lake; we see further opportunity in the Wabigoon Subprovince and are actively assessing other projects in the region alongside MINML. Notably, this area is attracting increasing exploration activity, with Dryden Gold, supported by established producers including Alamos Gold and Centerra Gold, advancing a district-scale land position.

However, our ambitions are not limited to Ontario, and we are also assessing opportunities elsewhere in North America that could complement Eagle Lake and support the development of a broader exploration business.

Financial Review

In connection with Admission, the Company raised approximately £2.0 million before expenses through a placing and subscription of 160,000,000 new ordinary shares at 1.25 pence per share. The proceeds are being used to support exploration at Eagle Lake and provide general working capital.

The acquisition of a 90% interest in Wedgetail Mining Corp, which owns 100% of the Eagle Lake Project, was completed for aggregate consideration of £4.18 million, comprising 320,000,000 new ordinary shares and £170,000 in cash. The remaining 10% of Wedgetail is held by AIM-quoted Gunsynd plc.

The convertible loan notes issued prior to Admission were converted into 59,957,575 new ordinary shares on completion of the transaction.

The Group incurred administrative expenses of £686,408 during the period, compared with £92,427 in the corresponding period of 2025, and reported a loss before tax of £729,808. At 30 June 2026, the Group held cash and cash equivalents of £280,620, with a further £1.495 million of share subscriptions receivable at the period end subsequently received in full.

Outlook

Looking ahead, and with the outlook for gold expected to remain supportive, we expect a busy remainder of the year as the maiden drilling programme progresses and assay results are incorporated into our geological model and planning for the next phase of exploration at Eagle Lake. In parallel, we will continue to assess opportunities in the Wabigoon Subprovince alongside MINML, while evaluating opportunities elsewhere in North America that fit our wider strategy.

I would like to thank our shareholders for their support through the transaction and since admission to AIM, as well as our teams, partners and advisers in the UK and Canada for their work over the past few months. We have covered a considerable amount of ground since June and look forward to updating shareholders on our progress.
