(NYSE: FSM | TSX: FVI) is pleased to report the latest batch of exploration drilling results from the Southern Arc deposit at its Diamba Sud Gold Project located in Senegal. A further 44 reverse circulation and diamond drill holes, totalling 7,518 meters, have been completed at Southern Arc since the previous exploration results update in December 2025 and were incorporated into the expanded Diamba Sud mineral resource (refer to Fortuna news release dated February 19, 2026, “Fortuna expands Indicated Mineral Resource by 73% to 1.25 million gold ounces, Diamba Sud Project, Senegal”). Paul Weedon, Senior Vice President of Exploration, commented “Infill and extension drilling at Southern Arc continues to strengthen the scale and confidence of the deposit, contributing to the updated and expanded updated Mineral Resource of 6 million tonnes averaging 1.9 g/t Au, containing 367,000 gold ounces, making it today the largest single mineral deposit at the growing Diamba Sud Project.” Mr. Weedon concluded, “Southern Arc remains open at depth and along strike to both the southwest and northeast, with drilling continuing. Importantly, most drilling across the total project area is considered relatively shallow at less than 200 meters depth, underscoring the potential for further resource growth at Diamba Sud.” Southern Arc Drilling highlights DSDD606: 8.4 g/t Au22.4 g/t Au over an estimated true width of 10.4 meters from 136 meters includingover an estimated true width of 1.6 meters from 145 meters DSDD608: 6.0 g/t Au20.0 g/t Au29.8 g/t Au13.9 g/t Au3.0 g/t Au18.6 g/t Au over an estimated true width of 24.1 meters from 80 meters, including over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 80 meters, and over an estimated true width of 2.4 meters from 84 meters, and over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 109 meters,over an estimated true width of 13.6 meters from 167 meters, includingover an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 176 meters DSDD612: 6.4 g/t Au12.6 g/t Au2.4 g/t Au10.7 g/t Au 10.3 g/t Au25.5 g/t Au19.0 g/t Au over an estimated true width of 4.6 meters from 102 meters, including over an estimated true width of 1.4 meters from 106 metersover an estimated true width of 6.2 meters from 115.3 meters, includingover an estimated true width o...
