香港, 2025年8月27日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) – 当前语音 AI 技术正面对 "听懂话中字，难懂话外情" 的行业困局 - 传统语音数据只能覆盖语义识别，缺乏情绪维度的关键信息，导致人机互动始终停留在 "功能化" 层面。在此背景下，品创控股有限公司（8066.HK）正式宣布全面战略升级，旗下核心子公司 CyberMirage 重磅推出 "区块链游戏 + AI 数据采集" 一体化平台，更凭借行业首创的情绪语音数据庫，突破语音 AI 数据瓶颈，为技术迈向 "人性化互动" 升级提供核心支撑，标志着公司在数字经济与人工智能赛道的布局进入关键新阶段。会员资源突破：20万+高粘性用户为情绪语音数据库提供 "真实场景原料"语音 AI 的精准度与维度，完全依赖数据的 "真实性" 与 "丰富度"- 人工脚本模拟的语音数据，不仅难以捕捉自然情绪，更无法覆盖多元生活场景。CyberMirage 创新平台的核心优势，在于深度激活品创控股 20 万 + 高粘性会员这一核心资产：这些覆盖不同年龄、职业、地域的会员，在日常互动中已建立 信任基础，能够在平台场景中自然流露真实情绪。例如，会员在区块链游戏中完成高难度关卡时的兴奋欢呼、遇到挑战时的紧张沟通、与队友协作时的积极反应，均会被平台即时采集 - 这些包含 "情绪 + 语义" 的语音素材，正是传统数据采集模式难以获取的稀缺资源。同时，平台透过区块链技术实现数据全程可追溯、不可篡改，既保障用户私隐安全，更确保每一条情绪语音数据的真实性，为情绪语音数据库的构建奠定 "原料根基"。值得关注的是，这些会员此前已在集团电子商务业务中积累了高活跃度，其中逾 10 万会员可转化为语音素材贡献者。此次平台升级后，将进一步提升情绪语音数据的采集效率与覆盖维度，形成 "用户沉淀 - 数据积累 - 模型优化" 的良性循环。技术实力验证：语音 AI 项目盈利印证情绪数据 "转化能力"情绪语音数据库的价值落地，离不开专业技术团队的支持。CyberMirage 组建的语音 AI 技术团队，已具备从 "数据提取 - 特征标注 - 模型训练" 的全链条技术能力 - 今年上半年，团队借力集团优质客户资源，成功落地两项语音 AI 技术服务项目。一项AI语音技术大模型算法的国家发明专利正在申请中。不仅实现可观利润，更从实践层面验证了技术转化能力。更重要的是，团队透过项目合作积累了丰富的行业需求洞察：如客服领域需重点识别 "不满情绪" 以优化服务，智能家居需感知 "疲惫状态" 以调整互动模式 - 这些需求正是情绪语音数据库的核心应用场景，未来团队可快速将情绪数据融入现有技术方案，开发出更具竞争力的 "情绪 + 语义" 双维度 AI 产品。行业瓶颈突破：首创情绪语音数据库推动语音AI"从知意到共情"当前语音 AI 行业的核心瓶颈，在于 "情绪数据缺失" 导致的互动短板：传统语音数据只能让 AI "听懂用户说什么"，却无法"听懂用户心声"- 客服 AI 听不出用户的不满，智能家居感知不到主人的疲惫，人形机械人更难以实现 "有温度" 的陪伴。据行业调研显示，70% 的用户认为 "AI 无法理解情绪" 是人机互动的主要痛点，而目前市场上尚未有成熟的情绪语音数据解决方案。解决人机对话，并让机器懂得人的情绪和在对话中准确表达所需情绪，是人形机械人走进千家万户的充分必要条件。CyberMirage 的情绪语音数据库，正是针对这一空白的首创性突破：透过区块链游戏场景采集的语音素材，包含 "平常、兴奋、失落、紧张、愉悦" 等 12 种核心情绪维度，且每种情绪均配对真实场景语义（如游戏胜利时的 "太开心了，终于通关！"、任务失败后的 "唉，下次再努力吧"）。这些数据经技术团队标注后，可直接用于训练 "情绪 + 语义" 双维度语音识别 AI 模型，让 AI 首次具备 "感知情绪、回应情绪" 的能力。从应用价值来看，这一突破将彻底重塑语音 AI 的应用边界：在家庭场景中，配备该模型的人形机械人可通过主人语音情绪，自动调整陪伴模式 - 当识别到疲惫情绪时，主动播放舒缓音乐；在医疗领域，AI 可通过患者语音情绪变化，辅助医生判断心理状态；在教育领域，情绪 AI 能感知学生学习时的烦躁或专注，动态调整教学节奏。正如行业专家评价："品创控股的情绪语音数据库，让语音 AI 从‘工具’升级为‘伙伴’，为整个人机对话行业开启了人性化互动的新空间。"投资价值凸显：情绪数据壁垒构筑长期增长"护城河"从投资角度来看，品创控股的战略升级具备三大难以复制的核心优势，而情绪语音数据库正是贯穿其中的价值核心：其一，用户壁垒难以逾越。20 万 + 高粘性会员不仅为情绪数据提供稳定来源，更能通过圈层传播吸引更多优质用户 - 竞争对手若想复制这一资源，需至少 3-5 年的用户沉淀与信任积累，短期内难以实现；其二，技术转化能力已获验证。上半年两项语音 AI 项目的盈利，证明团队能将数据优势转化为商业价值，而情绪语音数据库的加入，将进一步提升产品溢价能力，预计后续定制化 AI 解决方案利润率可提升15-20%；其三，市场空间持续扩张。随着人形机械人、智能家居、心理健康等领域对情绪互动需求的增长，情绪语音数据的市场价值将逐年攀升，据估算，2027 年全球情绪 AI 市场规模将突破 500 亿美元，品创控股凭借先发优势，有望迅速抢占细分市场份额。值得关注的是，已有 3 家领先的 AI 应用企业就情绪语音数据库的合作与品创控股展开磋商，若合作落实，将进一步验证数据的商业价值，同时为公司带来稳定的数据流与收入流。未来，品创控股将持续深化 "区块链游戏 + AI 数据采集" 模式，推动情绪语音数据库渗透至更多行业，在实现自身增长的同时，引领语音 AI 行业从 "识别语音" 向 "理解人心" 跨越。 Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

Melbourne, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - August 26, 2025) - Copper-gold explorer and hybrid project generator Kincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) (Kincora or the Company) is pleased to provide an update on positive drilling results from ongoing exploration programs at two projects in the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt (NJNB). These projects are located in the undercover extension of the Macquarie Arc in NSW and being conducted under earn-in and joint venture agreements with AngloGold Ashanti Australia Limited (AngloGold Ashanti).HIGHLIGHTSA successful first drilling program at the Nyngan project has identified multiple Macquarie Arc composite volcano-intrusive complexes:Encouraging geology and anomalous assay results support porphyry copper and epithermal gold potential.Targets resulting from the 1Q'2025 ground gravity survey returned encouraging results, at particularly shallow depths, significantly expanding future search spaces.A continuation of further scout drilling and/or a Stage 2 step out phase is proposed.Drilling is ongoing at the highly prospective Nevertire South and Nevertire projects:The first drilling program at the Nevertire Magmatic Complex (NMC) since Kincora consolidated the tenement ownership supporting a >8km untested strike.Initial observations reaffirm Kincora's view that the NMC is the most advanced and geologically prospective porphyry project in the covered extensions of the Macquarie Arc.Initial seven-hole program ongoing and scheduled for ~2,150 metres.Planning has already commenced for follow up geophysical surveys given encouraging initial results and scale of the existing system ahead of potential follow up drilling.Kincora is managing the programs and receives a management fee based on 10% of expenditure.The Nyngan, Nevertire South and Nevertire projects are included in two earn-in and joint ventures with AngloGold Ashanti who has the right to spend up to A$100 million across a total of five projects covering a continuous strike greater than a 100kms within Kincora's NJNB portfolio.John Holliday, Technical Committee chair, and Peter Leaman, VP of Exploration, said:"While early days in our first drilling program at the Nevertire South project we are very excited by the large, multi-phase Macquarie Arc volcanic and intrusive complex we are intersecting - we are in what looks to be a very large, mineralised and very prospective system with the right geological signs. Large scale step-out drilling is ongoing and designed to discover or create a vectoring pattern to a targeted porphyry deposit. We have already seen enough to be planning near term geophysical programs to help guide and refine a high priority next phase of drilling.It is also worth noting that the conclusion of the first phase of scout drilling at the Nyngan project was particularly successful at testing new targets that emerged from the gravity survey only undertaken in the first quarter this year. Several new mineralised multi-phase volcano-intrusive complexes were intersected at shallow depths, significantly expanding the near-term search space, particularly across the wider Gerar target area. Follow up exploration is planned and will be refined upon receipt of all pending drilling results.Finally, it is also particularly pleasing to see Waratah Resource's new gold discovery at its Spur porphyry project and the significant interest this has attracted - congratulations to Peter Duerden and his team. It is a great reminder of the geological potential of the Macquarie Arc and the results that testing new geological concepts in new search spaces can yield."NEVERTIRE AND NEVERTIRE SOUTH PROJECTS Following the April 2025 amended and second earn-in agreement with AngloGold Ashanti 1, drilling plans were expanded for a first phase program at both the Nevertire and Nevertire South projects with unimpeded access across the consolidated ~8 x 12km Nevertire Magmatic Complex (NMC).The ongoing seven-hole program includes both large scale step out and scout targets designed to discover or create a vectoring pattern to a targeted porphyry deposit. This program seeks to effectively test part of a greater than 8km northern strike of the NMC, following up from prior favorable drill results of Newcrest Mining.Newcrest holes ACDNY005 and ACDNY006 were drilled ~2.7km apart and returned "lithologies, alteration and veining consistent with a setting similar to the Cadia-Ridgeway and Goonumbla porphyry Cu-Au deposits" 2. Hole ACDNY006 returned a "very encouraging intersection of anomalous copper mineralisation (from basement to end of hole), veining and magnetite alteration situated in a high volcanic-hosted level" 3 and hole ACDNY005 returned very favorable alteration, a Phase 4 Macquarie Arc age date and up to 0.53 g/t gold.Three of an initial seven planned holes have been completed by Kincora, with step-outs ranging from 600m to 1,200m away from prior Newcrest holes ACDNY005 and ACDNY006. Drilling commenced from the south within the confirmed Macquarie Arc domain and is progressing towards the north - see Figures 2 & 3. Initial observations from these holes reaffirm the Company's view that the central and northern portions of the NMC are the most geologically prospective porphyry project in the covered extensions of the Macquarie Arc.The step-out holes have intersected multiple porphyritic intrusive phases beneath a moderate thickness of post mineral cover. Lithologies intersected include monzonite, diorite, and crowded pyroxene-hornblende andesites. Favorable alteration is noted with intervals of strong chlorite ± magnetite ± epidote ± sericite ± hematite ± K-feldspar and disseminated and vein-hosted pyrite ± chalcopyrite is present in multiple zones ± localised bornite. Late-stage chalcedonic and tourmaline-bearing veins suggest potential for a telescoped hydrothermal overprint.The program uses cost-effective mud-rotary drilling through the relatively soft post mineral cover sequence followed by diamond core drilling (NQ3) of porphyry-prospective basement. This technique was successfully used in the first phase program at the Nyngan project.While assay and other sampling technique results are pending, planning has already commenced for follow up geophysical surveys given the encouraging initial observations. A follow up drill program will be assessed once all assay results are received.NYNGAN PROJECTInitial scout drilling activities at the Nyngan project commenced in calendar 4Q'2024 in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti under the May 2024 earn-in agreement 4. A total of nineteen wide-spaced scout holes for 7,345.4 metres were completed and confirmed multiple newly identified interpreted Macquarie Arc composite volcanic and intrusive complexes.All holes to date have provided samples of basement geology across separate magnetic complexes and key lithological domains hosted within two separate and previously untested Macquarie Arc magnetic complexes, the Ace of Spades and Gerar (formerly South-West) targets, which cover ~16 x 18km and ~7 x 17km, respectively - see Figures 2 & 4 below.Following encouraging results for the first six holes completed in 4Q'2024, the drilling program was expanded to provide greater coverage across the two wider target areas and a ground gravity survey was commissioned and completed in 1Q'2025 5. Most recent drilling across a wider search space and targets resulting from the gravity survey returned encouraging results, at particularly shallow depths, further significantly increasing the search space - see Figure 2 below.Shallower than anticipated cover, encouraging geology, alteration, anomalous copper and pathfinder minerals, and preserved structural blocks support porphyry and epithermal gold potential and provide vectors for follow up drilling at multiple targets - see Tables 1 & 2 below.A continuation of further scout drilling and/or a Stage 2 step out phase is proposed post receipt of full results and analysis with our partner AngloGold Ashanti. Several further potential scout holes have existing permits and land access offering walk up drill targets.Figure 1: Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti have partnered to explore a new district-scale undercover extension of the world-class Macquarie Arc via two earn-in and joint venture agreements and are currently aggressively drilling large greenfield targetsKincora is managing the earn-in programs with AngloGold Ashanti, receiving a 10% management fee of expenditures, covering a continuous 100km strike and 5 projectsTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/263878_figure1.jpg Figure 2: Drilling has transitioned from an initial 19-hole scout drilling program at the Nyngan project to a step out drilling program at the Nevertire South and Nevertire projectsFurther potential step out drilling and a Phase 2 step out program at Nyngan are proposedTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/263878_figure2.jpgFigure 3: A first phase drilling program under two separate earn-in and joint venture agreements with AngloGold Ashanti has commenced and will for the first time test the >8km northern strike of the Nevertire Magmatic Complex with unimpeded access for the first time from previous very favourable drilling results by Newcrest MiningThe ongoing program includes both large scale step out and scout targets designed to discover or create a vectoring pattern to a targeted porphyry deposit.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/263878_figure3.jpgFigure 4: 19 wide spaced scout holes have been completed in the first phase AngloGold Ashanti and Kincora program at the Nyngan projectThe scout holes to basement have taken samples of geology across separate magnetic complexes and key lithological domains hosted within two separate and previously untested Macquarie Arc volcano-intrusive complexes (the Ace of Spaces and the Gerar targets). A 1Q'2025 extensive ground gravity survey generated a number of new targets, four of which were drilled in 2Q'2025. Due to the very broad nature and extensive regional coverage of the current program Kincora has not provided sectional views of the current scout-drilling phase (as required under Clause 19 of the JORC Code). Such sections are anticipated upon commencement of a Phase 2 follow up step out phase of drilling.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/263878_figure4.jpg Table 1: Nyngan project: Summary of 2024-25 mud rotary-diamond tail drill holes (metres)HoleMud RotaryDiamond CoreEndof HoleInterpretedBasementBasementIntervalHighlightsNYDD002212.9240.7453.644013.6Confirmed Macquarie Arc age date.Rare chalcopyrite, bornite.NYDD003257.8168.6426.4257.8168.6Distal propylitic alteration & weak gold-copper anomaly.

The district has seen considerable exploration success, including two greater than 10Moz gold equivalent discoveries/resource expansions 7 and an emerging gold discovery by Waratah Resources at the Spur project 8.Despite regional magnetics effectively mapping the Macquarie Arc volcanic belts, due to the post mineral cover, there has been very limited prior drilling of the extensions of both the Junee-Narromine and Molong volcanic belts relative to the southern more outcropping sections which hosts a number of world-class deposits and mines (e.g. Cadia, Cowal and Northparkes).Kincora's portfolio and the wider NJNB offers new district-scale discovery potential with spatial and temporal settings, coupled with magnetics, gravity and new Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) surveys, supportive of large-scale targets analogous to porphyry deposits located in the southern section of the Arc.AngloGold Ashanti has secured Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreements with both Kincora and Inflection Resources (CSE: AUCU) ("Inflection", market capitalisation C$24.7 million) within the NJNB with over A$14 million investment to date 9. In 2Q'2025, AngloGold Ashanti moved to Phase II of its earn-in agreement with Inflection designating a total of four projects to continue earning into (including two projects adjacent to Kincora's Nyngan project) 10 and signed a major amendment with Kincora to include a second joint venture supporting a continuous strike greater than a 100kms and five projects.The most recent notable example of a new globally significant emerging porphyry district is the Vicuña district, which is also an extension of a renowned world-class porphyry belt. Vicuña is an extension of the central Andean belts in Argentina on the border of Chile and situated at over 4000m altitude.Within this district NGEx Resources Inc in 2009 held three early-stage exploration projects and at the time had a market capitalisation of approximately C$40 million 11. These same projects are all still at a pre-development phase but have yielded in four large-scale discoveries valued at over A$10 billion 12.Kincora was an early mover into the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt and has opportunistically pegged strategically important ground directly from the State resulting in a district scale portfolio of the interpreted most prospective and shallow to moderate covered part of the northwards extension of the Macquarie Arc under post mineral cover. This portfolio now covers a strike twice the length of the Vicuña district and is included in earn-in and agreements with AngloGold Ashanti.ABOUT KINCORA Kincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) is an emerging Australia-focused copper-gold explorer with a hybrid project generator strategy. The Company is now successfully proving up the prospectivity of its extensive project portfolio, which includes multiple district-scale landholdings and scalable drill ready targets. These assets are located in Australia's Macquarie Arc and Mongolia's Southern Gobi, two of the globe's leading porphyry belts, and the historical Condobolin mining field within the Cobar superbasin in NSW.Kincora is using an asset level partner model to develop and implement exploration strategies for its wholly-owned large-scale exploration stage porphyry projects. The Company has already unlocked over $110 million of potential partner funding for multiple earlier stage and/or non-core porphyry projects 13. These initial deals have supported over 13,500 metres of drilling and over A$6.5m of partner funded exploration since late 2024, with management fees and exploration ramping up 13.Partner discussions are ongoing for its remaining 100% owned flagship projects that are all situated within existing porphyry camps containing over 20-million-ounce gold equivalent resource inventory.Kincora's ambition is to be the operator for exploration budgets of over $10 million per annum for the porphyry portfolio providing sufficient project management fees for the Company to be self-funding (covering corporate costs and maintenance of remaining wholly owned projects) and have partnerships with a diversified portfolio of industry leading producers/explorers. This is in addition to the various other existing partnerships where Kincora is not the operator or receiving a management fee income stream.The Company has assembled an industry leading technical team who have made multiple world-class copper and gold discoveries, who have "skin in the game" equity ownership, and, backed by a consolidated and sophisticated shareholder register (insiders currently owning over 40% of the Company and represented on the Board).On July 7th, 2025, Kincora announced an oversubscribed C$4 million non-brokered private placement of units led by leading North American investors, including Rick Rule and Jeff Phillips, and their investor networks.The share units have a 12-month hold period and there is an accelerator on the warrants - both at the lead investors requests. This raising is concurrent with a corporate restructuring and share capital roll back.The roll back and placement terms provides Kincora the corporate structure to leverage the deals, partner funding and project results already in place and to unlock significant existing value. This is starting to be realized.The new capital provides the ability to accelerate more drilling, do more asset level deals, earn more management fees, and, ultimately, supporting the ambition of more (big) new discoveries. These multiple avenues all provide further material value catalysts for shareholders.Closing of the non-brokered private placement is anticipated shortly after the scheduled August 27th, Annual General and Special Shareholders meeting.The financing also supports Kincora pursuing a hybrid project generator model and undertaking drilling at our 100% owned Condobolin project. The Condobolin project hosts a historical mining field located within the Cobar superbasin and within trucking distance to an existing mill seeking third party ore. The Cobar superbasin has recently seen a number of significant new discoveries (eg Federation, Achilles, Mallee Bull, Southern Nights and Wagga Tank) and significant corporate activity (eg Harmony's A$1.6 billion offer for MAC, Kingston Resources recently receiving A$50 million cash for the first tranche of its divestment of its Misima project etc). The project and regional profiles' support the Condobolin project being an asset that a junior explorer such as Kincora can add significant value too.By having a significant portfolio of partner funded large porphyry projects, and a very focused program on a 100% owned project, the Company is seeking to position Kincora as a leading institutional grade explorer in the public Australian and Canadian markets, and the leading project generator on the ASX.To learn more, please visit: www.kincoracopper.com.References:1 Kincora press release Apr 14, 2025, "Second Major Earn-in Secured with AngloGold Ashanti."2 Open file annual report for former EL6337 by Newcrest Mining 2008.3 September 2024 report by John Holliday,"Review of Old Newcrest Holes ACDNYs 5, 6 and 7 Drilled into Kincora's ELs Nevertire South and Nevertire." 4 Kincora press release May 28, 2024, "AngloGold Ashanti to earn-in to the NJNB Project."5 Kincora press release Feb 13, 2025, "Encouraging results expands Kincora Copper and AngloGold Ashanti's First Drilling Program."6 Ocean Blue Equities Oct 8, 2024 initiation research report on Waratah Minerals with the addition of Newmont's earn-in and joint venture agreements with Koonenberry Gold (ASX: KNB) for the:(a) Junee porphyry project (A$23.9m of expenditure to date, ex the Jan 2025 drilling with Koonenberry Gold carried until commercial production); and,(b) Fairholme porphyry project (Koonenberry carried until A$15m of exploration expenditure, with A$1.14m spent to date, ex the Jan 2025 drilling program).7 Public data, including the resource growth at the Cowal project since Evolution Mining's acquisition driven by the Dalwhinnie underground discovery and the discovery/resource growth of the Boda and Kaiser deposits by Alkane Resources.8 Waratah Minerals' Aug 4, 2025 release "Multiple zones of high-grade gold mineralisation extend Spur Gold Corridor".9 Includes AngloGold Ashanti funded exploration with Kincora and Inflection as at Dec 31, 2024, including Phase 1 and Phase 2 expenditures with Inflection (refer to the Mar 3, 2025 "MD&A" for the quarter ended Dec 2024) and Inflection Resources (ticker "AUCU.CSE") as at COB August 22nd, 2025.10 Inflection Resources' Mar 25, 2025 release "AngloGold Ashanti Designates Four Inflection Resources Projects for Phase II of Exploration Earn-in Agreement".11 Refer to NGEx Mineral's presentation July 2024 for further details.12 ">A$10 billion market value": includes values for Filo Corp & Josemaria based on the Jul 29, 2024 transaction values from Lundin Mining & BHP (see public market releases, "Lundin Mining and BHP to Acquire Filo and Form a 50/50 Joint Venture to Progress the Filo del Sol and Josemaria Projects") and May 30th, 2025 market capitalisation of NGEx Minerals.13 Over $110 million of potential partner funding for eight earlier stage and/or non-core projects via 6 deals and four partners, with over 13,500 metres of drilling and over A$6.5m of partner funded exploration since late 2024 includes:(a) The original up to A$50m earn-in & JV agreement with AngloGold Ashanti for the Nyngan & Nevertire projects and the amended agreement to include the Nyngan South, Nevertire South and Mulla projects including another up to A$50m earn-in & JV: refer May 28, 2024 release "AngloGold Ashanti to earn-in to the NJNB Project" and Apr 14, 2025, "Second Major Earn-in Secured with AngloGold Ashanti" (estimated budget approximately $4m, incl. 8,467m drilling, Kincora currently the project manager receiving a 10% fee of expenditure).

These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report.In cases where 'industry standard' work has been done this would be relatively simple (e.g. 'reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay'). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed informationKincora Copper Limited ("Kincora") is the operator of the Nyngan Project (EL8929) and Nervertire South Project (EL9710) undertaking exploration in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti under an earn-in and joint venture agreement.Drill hole planning, targeting, sampling and budgeting is discussed and agreed at quarterly technical committee workshops between Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti.Current scout and step out drilling utilises mud-rotary to refusal followed by diamond coring methods by Ophir Drilling Pty Ltd (based in Orange) from which sub-samples of core are taken over 2 m intervals and pulverised to produce suitable aliquots for fire assay and ICP-MS.Diamond drilling was used to obtain core samples from the ground, which was then structurally, geotechnically and geologically logged.Some sample intervals spanning lithological contacts or changes in alteration and mineralization were less than 2m.Sampling was completed to industry standards with 1⁄4 core for PQ and HQ diameter diamond core and 1⁄2 core for NQ3 diameter diamond core sent to the lab for each sample interval.Samples were assayed via the following methods:- Gold: Au-Tl43 (Fire assay)- Multiple elements: ME-MS61 (4 acid digestion with ICP-MS analysis of 48 elements)- Assay results >10g/t gold and/or 1% copper are re-assayed- Hyperspectral: analysis of alteration minerals using Terraspec instrument and HYP-PKGAll of the diamond core from the 2024/25 drilling of nineteen holes from the Nyngan Project have been cut and submitted to Australian Laboratory Services Pty Ltd (ALS) in Orange, with assays returned for all holes. The initial holes from the Nevertire South are currently being logged and prepared for sampling and samples from one hole have been submitted to ALS for analysis.Multiple batches of core samples for petrological descriptions and confirmation of the lithologies, alteration assemblages, textures and paragenesis have being submitted where appropriate for drilling at Nyngan, such samples are proposed but pending for the ongoing drilling at Nevertire South (but noting certain such samples are available from prior explorer drilling at Nevertire South).Various quarter core samples have been submitted for U-Pb age dating of the zircon, titanite or apatite grains seeking to confirm Macquarie Arc date ranges for drilling at Nyngan, such samples are proposed but pending for the ongoing drilling at Nevertire South (but noting certain such samples are available from prior explorer drilling at Nevertire South).A suite of coherent (volcanic and intrusive) rocks have been chosen for lithogeochemistry with extensive fertility analysis undertaken, such samples are proposed but pending for the ongoing drilling at Nevertire South (but noting certain such samples are available from prior explorer drilling at Nevertire South).Select existing pulps maybe be re-run as Li borate fusion discs to obtain more accurate trace element concentrations.Historic sampling on other projects included soils, rock chips and drilling (aircore, reserve circulation and diamond core) with mutli-element assay results petrological, geochromology, fertility and amongst others depending on the returned geology and nature of exploration target.Drilling techniquesDrill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc.).Drilling by Kincora at Nyngan and Nevertire South has used cost effective mud-rotary in the cover sequence rocks and diamond core drilling in the basement rocks with NQ triple tube diameter diamond core tail. This technique is proving time and cost effective to gain initial samples of basement across separate magnetic complexes and key lithological domains.Historic drilling on other Kincora projects has used a variety of methods including aircore, reverse circulation and diamond core.Drill sample recoveryMethod of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed.Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples.Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.Drill core recovery was logged.Diamond drill core recoveries are contained in the body of the announcement - see Table 3.Core recoveries were recorded by measuring the total length of recovered core expressed as a proportion of the drilled run length.There is no relationship between core recoveries and grades.LoggingWhether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies.Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc.) photography.The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged.All holes are geologically logged for their entire length including lithology, alteration, mineralization (sulphides and oxides), veining and structure.Logging is mostly qualitative in nature, with some visual estimation of mineral proportions that is semi-quantitative. Measurements are taken on structures where core is orientated.All core is photographed wet and dryHistoric drilling was logged with logging mostly recorded on paper in reports lodged with the NSW State.Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparationIf core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken.If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc. and whether sampled wet or dry.For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples.Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling.Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled.Once all standardised processing of photography and geological information was extracted from the drill core, the sample intervals were cut with an automatic core saw, bagged and delivered to the laboratory.This is an appropriate sampling technique for this style of mineralization and is the industry standard for sampling of diamond drill core.PQ and HQ sub-samples are quarter cored and NQ half cored.Sample sizes are considered appropriate the nature of lithology and mineralization being sampled.No duplicate samples were taken.Quality of assay data and laboratory testsThe nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total.For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc.Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g. standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision have been established.Gold was determined by fire assay and a suite of other elements including Cu and Mo by 4-acid digest with ICP-MS finish at ALS laboratories in Orange.For all holes, every 20th sample was either a commercially supplied pulp standard or pulp blank Certified Reference Material. Results of the Certified Reference Materials provide confidence in the accuracy of the analyses returned from ALS.ALS provides its own quality controls including laboratory duplicates and blanks as part of its routine procedures and provides these results to Kincora.Historic assays on other projects were mostly gold by fire assay and other elements by ICPMS.Verification of sampling and assayingThe verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel.The use of twinned holes.Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols.Discuss any adjustment to assay data.Significant intercepts were calculated by Kincora's geological staff.No twinned holes have been completed.The intercepts have not been verified by independent personnel, other than during quarterly reviews by AngloGold Ashanti, and, specialist consultants on an ad hoc basis.Logging data is captured digitally on electronic logging tablets and sampling data is captured on paper logs and transcribed to an electronic format into a relational master online database maintained by Kincora. Transcribed data is verified by the logging geologist.Assay data is received from the laboratory in electronic format and uploaded to the master database. Digital copies of Certificates of Analysis are stored in the master online database.No adjustments to assay data have been made.Outstanding assays are outlined in the body of the announcement.Location of data pointsAccuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation.Specification of the grid system used.Quality and adequacy of topographic control.Collar positions are set up using a hand-held GPS to less than 5 m horizontal and vertical accuracy.Drillholes are surveyed downhole every 30 m using an electronic gyro instrument and when drillholes terminated a single shot is taken.For NYDD002 and NYDD003, a single shot gyro survey was taken every 12m while pulling out of the hole.Grid system used is the Map Grid of Australia Zone 55, GDA 94 datum.Topography in the area of Nyngan is near-flat and drill collar elevations provide adequate control.Data spacing and distributionData spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied.Whether sample compositing has been applied.Kincora scout drilling at then Nyngan and Nevertire projects are at an early stage, undertaking a wide spaced initial scout drilling programme seeking to determine depth to basement and provide maiden samples of basement geology across separate magnetic complexes and key lithological domains to provide wide spatial coverage within the Gerar (formerly South-West) and Ace of Spades targets.Data spacing at this stage is insufficient to establish the continuity required for sections or a Mineral Resource estimate.No sample compositing was applied to Kincora drilling.Kincora step out drilling at the Nevertire South project is currently very broad spaced - between 600m to 1200m.Historic drilling on Nyngan and other projects was completed at various drill hole spacings and no other projects have spacing sufficient to establish a mineral resource.Orientation of data in relation to geological structureWhether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type.If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and reported if material.The drill holes are either vertical for depth penetration or steeply angled toward geophysical targets.At this stage of drilling the orientation of any mineralized structures or mineralized intercepts has not yet been determined.Sample securityThe measures taken to ensure sample security.Kincora staff or their contractors oversaw all stages of drill core sampling. Bagged samples were placed inside polyweave sacks that were zip-tied, stored in a locked container and then transported to the laboratory by Kincora field personnel.Audits or reviewsThe results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data.Mining Associates has completed an review of sampling techniques and procedures undertaken by Kincora at the Trundle Project dated January 31st, 2021, as outlined in the Independent Technical Report included in the ASX listing prospectus, which is available at:https://www.kincoracopper.com/investors/asx-prospectusKincora has continued to follow similar sampling techniques, systems and controls.Regular site visits are undertaken by Kincora's asset level partner, AngloGold Ashanti, with quarterly technical committee workshops reviewing all aspects of the programme. Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)CriteriaJORC Code explanationCommentaryMineral tenement and land tenure statusType, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings.The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area.On May 28, 2024, Kincora announced a multi-phase Earn-In and Joint Venture Arrangement with a wholly owned subsidiary of AngloGold Ashanti Plc for the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt (NJNB) Project, including EL8929.EL8929 (the Nyngan Project) is wholly owned by Kincora.On March 18, 2024, a three-year extension was granted to Kincora for EL8929 until January 2027.The licence is in good standing and there are no known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate.22 Assessable Prospecting Operation (APO) approvals for drilling are in place, enabling 22 drill holes with 15 holes having already been completed (rehabilitation reports submitted for 14). Currently one further new APO is pending.Land access agreements are in place to execute the proposed ongoing scout drilling programme.On April 14, Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti signed a major amendment to the existing earn-in and joint venture agreement for a second joint venture in the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt including the Nyngan South (EL9708), Nevertire South (EL9710) and Mulla (EL9320) licenses.EL9710 (the Nevertire South Project) is wholly owned by Kincora.On October 23, 2024, Kincora was awarded Exploration License Application No 6780 and EL9710 was granted with a four-year term until October 2028.The licence is in good standing and there are no known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate.7 Assessable Prospecting Operation (APO) approvals for drilling are in place, enabling 7 drill holes.Land access agreements are in place to execute the proposed ongoing scout drilling programme.Exploration done by other partiesAcknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties.All Kincora projects have had previous exploration work undertaken, albeit relatively limited prior drilling at the Nyngan Project and Nevertire South Project.The review and verification process for the information disclosed herein and of other parties for the Nyngan Project and Nevertire South has included the receipt of all material exploration data, results and sampling procedures of previous operators and review of such information by Kincora's geological staff using standard verification procedures. Further details of exploration efforts and data of other parties are providing in the March 1st, 2021, Independent Technical Report included in the ASX listing prospectus, which is available at: https://www.kincoracopper.com/investors/asx-prospectusGeologyDeposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.The Nyngan Project and Nevertire South Project are interpreted to be located in the undercover northern extension of the Junee-Narromine Belt of the Macquarie Arc, part of the Lachlan Orogen.Targeted rocks comprise successions of volcano-sedimentary rocks of Ordovician age intruded by suites of subduction arc-related intermediate to felsic intrusions of late Ordovician to early Silurian age.Kincora is exploring for porphyry-style copper and gold mineralization, copper-gold skarn plus related high sulphidation and epithermal gold systems.Drill hole InformationA summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes:easting and northing of the drill hole collarelevation or RL (Reduced Level - elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collardip and azimuth of the holedown hole length and interception depthhole length.If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.Detailed information on Kincora's drilling at Nyngan and Nevertire South are given in the body and Tables of this report.Data aggregation methodsIn reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated.Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail.The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated.For Kincora drilling at Nyngan and Nevertire South have followed these methods:Porphyry gold-copper intercepts were aggregated using a cut-off grade of 200ppm copper.Internal dilution below cut off included was generally less than 25% of the total reported intersection length.Core loss was included as dilution at zero values.Average gold and copper grades calculated as averages weighted to sample lengths.Historic drilling results in other project areas are reported at different cut-off grades depending on the nature of mineralisation.Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengthsThese relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results.If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported.If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg 'down hole length, true width not known').Due to the uncertainty of mineralization orientation, the true width of mineralization is not known at Nyngan and Nevertire South.Intercepts from historic drilling reported at other projects are also of unknown true width.DiagramsAppropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views.Relevant diagrams and tables are included in the body of the report noting that the current phase of drilling at Nyngan includes scout holes to basement geology across separate magnetic complexes and key lithological domains hosted within two separate and previously untested Macquarie Arc volcano-intrusive complexes (the Ace of Spaces and Gerar (the latter formerly known as the South-West target)).Due to the very board nature and extensive regional coverage of the program the Company has not provide sectional views of the current scout-drilling phase (as required under Clause 19 of the JORC Code). Such sections are anticipated upon commencement of a Phase 2 follow up step out phase of drilling.Section views are anticipated upon completion of the current step-out phase of drilling at the Nevertire South Project.Balanced reportingWhere comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.Intercepts reported for Kincora's drilling at Nyngan are zones of higher grade within unmineralized or weakly anomalous material.No new assay results are yet available for drilling at Nevertire South.Other substantive exploration dataOther exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples - size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances.No other exploration data is considered material to the reporting of results at Nyngan and Nevertire South. Other data of interest to further exploration targeting is included in the body of the report.Historic exploration data coverage and results are included in the body of the report for Kincora's other projects.Further workThe nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.Areas within the Gerar and Ace of Spades targets at the Nyngan Project have been chosen for a continuation of the scout drilling during 2025, seeking to provide further wide special coverage of interpreted intrusive complexes. Existing and new APOs are in place for the current scout drilling phase - see Figures 2 & 3 above.Coupled with more detailed geoscientific studies, including petrology, lithogeochemistry and geochronology, the continuation of the scout drilling programme assist with specific vectoring and a proposed second phase follow-up diamond drilling programmes that are expected towards the end of 2025 after drilling at the Nevertire and Nevertire South projects.

Successful launch marks Focus Graphite's entry into real-world defense and aerospace applicationsOttawa, Ontario--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - August 26, 2025) - Focus Graphite Inc. (TSXV: FMS) (OTCQB: FCSMF) (FSE: FKC0) ("Focus" or the "Company"), a leading Canadian graphite developer advancing high-grade projects in Québec, is pleased to announce the successful launch of Pluto Aerospace's Dash 1 Flight 003 solid-fuel rocket, featuring nozzle components developed using graphite from Focus' Lac Knife project. The project was completed in collaboration with American Energy Technologies Company ("AETC"), Pluto Aerospace ("Pluto"), a Purdue Strategic Ventures portfolio company, with additional support from ACP Technologies ("ACP"). AETC utilized Lac Knife natural graphite and synthetic graphite to produce a near-net shape manufactured graphite nozzle, which was successfully integrated into the Dash 1 sounding hypersonic rocket.The launch took place on August 23, 2025, at 8:21 a.m. Pacific Time from the Mojave Desert test range, located between Edwards Air Force Base and NAWCWD China Lake in California. The rocket reached an altitude of more than 45,000 feet and achieved record-setting flight duration and range for Pluto Aerospace. The test program evaluated hypersonic performance and thermal resistivity, with nozzle temperatures exceeding 3,000°C. The rocket was built entirely with North American-sourced materials and components. Representatives from Pluto, AETC, Focus, ACP-T, and the United States government were in attendance for the launch. The launch marks the Company's first real-world, high-fidelity aerospace and defense application test and follows months of extensive process optimizations which led to this historic flight.Data collected from the launch will further validate the performance characteristics of Lac Knife graphite in high-temperature and high-stress hypersonic environments relevant to surface-to-air defense systems, and commercial rocketry alike. Focus anticipates continued participation in upcoming launches, including trials involving graphene-based coatings produced from Lac Knife graphite, designed for icephobic and radar-suppression applications on rocket fins. These developments are also transferable to unmanned air vehicle (UAV) drone technology, a growing area of interest for the Company."This is a landmark moment for Focus Graphite, and we are proud to see Lac Knife material play a role in such an important aerospace demonstration," said Jason Latkowcer, Vice President, Corporate Development. "We thank our partners at AETC and Pluto Aerospace for including us in this historic test. The results reaffirm that Lac Knife large and jumbo flake graphite possesses the qualities required for advanced, high-performance applications in defense and aerospace. With governments around the world increasing investments in national security - such as through NATO commitments and initiatives like the Golden Dome - Focus is positioning itself to play a critical role in supplying North American-sourced graphite for these strategic needs."This latest flight aligns with Pluto Aerospace's broader mission to make high-speed, hypersonic testing more accessible to small businesses and start-ups - a key advantage highlighted in recent coverage by the Purdue Research Foundation. The Dash platform provides rapid, cost-effective access to hypersonic test environments that typically require substantial budgets and lengthy pre-qualification timelines.As the demand for domestic manufacturing of advanced materials continues to grow, Focus Graphite remains committed to supporting onshoring initiatives and strengthening critical mineral supply chains essential to national security.Image 1: Pluto Aerospace's Dash 1 Flight 003 solid-fuel rocket featuring AETC's graphite nozzle manufactured with Lac Knife graphite.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1963/263912_85b592feb494f88b_001full.jpgImage 2: Launch of Pluto Aerospace's Dash 1 Flight 003 solid-fuel rocket on August 23, 2025.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1963/263912_85b592feb494f88b_002full.jpgAbout Pluto AerospacePluto is an Indiana based start-up building the fastest path from lab bench to hypersonic flight.

Gross profit increased by 6.2% from HK$637.5 million in 2024 to HK$677.0 million in 2025. Gross profit margin decreased 1.4 percentage points to 33.6% in 2025, which was mainly attributable to higher purchase costs.Profit attributable to owners of the Company was HK$157.0 million, representing a net profit margin of 7.8% for the period.

Revenue from Mainland China operations increased by 9.4% (in local currency: 10.8%) to HK$1,221.9 million (2024: HK$1,116.6 million), due to the Company’s efforts to expand sales in the inland areas and the continued upward momentum in Mainland China.In Hong Kong, the performance of instant noodle business improved.
