Metallurgical work begins. Kodiak Copper has commenced an additional metallurgical program at its 100%-owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern British Columbia. The new work builds on positive results reported earlier this year and is focused on flowsheet development and optimization. The program is intended to improve the technical foundation for future economic studies while MPD continues to advance through ongoing exploration and resource growth.

Project-wide testing. The program is broad in scope and will include representative material from all seven deposits included in MPD’s mineral resource estimate: 1) Gate, 2) Ketchan, 3) Man, 4) Dillard, 5) West, 6) Adit, and 7) South. Four composite samples representing the Southern Area, Northern Area, Ketchan, and Gate will undergo mineralogical, comminution, gravity, flotation, locked cycle, and concentrate quality testing. In our view, this should help determine whether a common processing flowsheet can be applied across multiple deposits, which could simplify future development and provide greater flexibility in mine planning and deposit sequencing.

Release – Kodiak Commences Additional Metallurgical Testing Focused on Flowsheet Development & Optimization

October 22, 2026 – Vancouver, British Columbia – Kodiak Copper Corp. (the “Company” or “Kodiak”) (TSX-V: KDK, OTCQX: KDKCF, Frankfurt: 5DD1) today reports that it has commenced an additional metallurgical testwork program, for its 100% owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern British Columbia.

The testwork program will focus on flowsheet development and optimization and build on the test results received earlier this year (see news release here). It will include samples from all seven deposits that comprise the Mineral Resource Estimate at MPD: Gate, Ketchan, Man, Dillard, West, Adit and South (see Figure 1). Sample selection was designed to be representative of the mineralization, grade, lithology, and spatial variability across each deposit. Four composite samples representing the Southern Area (South, West and Adit), Northern Area (Man and Dillard), Ketchan and Gate will be tested. Testing will include mineralogy, comminution, gravity testwork for gold, flotation rougher and cleaner optimization, locked cycle testing and concentrate quality assessment. The results from the program are expected in Q1 2027.

Claudia Tornquist, President and CEO of Kodiak said,

“As we continue to grow the mineral resource at MPD through exploration, we are also advancing our metallurgical testwork to further de-risk the project and strengthen the foundation for future economic studies. Our metallurgical results to date are very encouraging, and this next phase of work is designed to expand on those positive findings. The program will focus on optimizing metal recoveries, particularly for gold, and produce valuable information on rock properties and hardness. Together with our ongoing exploration program and planned resource update in early 2027, this work represents another important step in unlocking the value of MPD for our shareholders.”

Kodiak has engaged Fuse Advisors Inc., Part of SLR (“Fuse”) to design and manage this metallurgical testwork program, with technical guidance from Kodiak advisor Mike Westendorf. Fuse is a mining consultancy with extensive experience across a wide range of deposit types and metals, including many porphyry copper projects in British Columbia. The laboratory work will be conducted in Parksville at Blue Coast Research Ltd (“Blue Coast”) under the supervision of Fuse Metallurgist Renee Goold, P.Eng, an independent Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Blue Coast is a leading provider of metallurgical testing services for the global mining industry.

Ms Goold has reviewed this news release and approved the technical information pertaining to the metallurgical work. Dave Skelton, P.Geol, Vice President Exploration and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed, and approved the technical information contained in this release.

Kodiak Copper Corp. (KDKCF) – Kodiak Extends Ketchan Mineralization, Strengthening Resource Potential


Monday, October 19, 2026

Ketchan deposit expands significantly. Kodiak Copper recently reported encouraging results from seven drill holes totaling 1,583 meters at its 100%-owned MPD copper-gold project in British Columbia. Step-out drilling extended the known mineralized envelope at Ketchan by at least 450 meters southeast of its existing 1.4-kilometer resource footprint, increasing the known extent of the mineralized system and supporting potential resource growth.

Near-surface copper-gold mineralization. Hole AG-26-034 intersected 122.5 meters grading 0.41% copper equivalent (CuEq), beginning just 5.5 meters below the surface. Hole AG-26-021 returned 202.5 meters grading 0.20% CuEq, while infill hole AG-26-015 intersected 207.3 meters grading 0.31% CuEq. The results demonstrate mineralization both beyond and within the existing resource boundaries.

A large copper resource with room to grow. We have initiated coverage of Kodiak Copper Corp. with an Outperform rating and a price target of C$2.10, or approximately US$1.50 per share. Kodiak’s 100%-owned MPD Copper-Gold Project in southern British Columbia contains 439.2 million tonnes of Indicated and Inferred Resources across seven deposits, all open to expansion. Resource growth and improved project definition could support a higher valuation against a favorable long-term outlook for copper.

Ketchan drilling supports higher-grade potential. Hole AG-26-019 returned 283.5 meters at 0.70% copper equivalent (CuEq) from 37.5 meters downhole, including 108 meters at 1.02% CuEq. The result highlights shallow mineralization that could improve the grade and confidence of the existing resource.
