About Prospectiva Resources Ltd.

Prospectiva Resources is a Brazil-focused copper and gold exploration company advancing a district-scale portfolio of 100%-owned projects across the highly prospective but underexplored Borborema Belt in north-east Brazil. The Company's land package comprises 35 mineral exploration licences covering approximately 335km² across the states of Pernambuco and Paraíba and is anchored by its flagship São Francisco Copper-Gold Project.

São Francisco is the Company's priority exploration asset, where historical drilling has defined a high-grade, copper-dominant mineralised system extending over approximately 2km of strike, with significant exploration upside along strike and at depth. Approximately 5,900 metres of historical diamond drilling has been completed, including intercepts of 7.50m at 6.41% Cu and 0.36g/t Au, and 7.53m at 3.83% Cu and 0.36g/t Au.

Prospectiva will be undertaking a 2,500m diamond drilling programme in 2026 designed to infill key zones of high-grade near-surface copper mineralisation and drill test key new conductive targets across the main 3km São Francisco Copper-Gold Project. The programme is designed to support the definition of an initial Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) in 2027.
