Sranan Gold Intersects 11.5 Metres Grading 3.64 Grams per Tonne Gold in Saprolite from Initial Drill Hole at Randy’s Pit at the Tapanahony Project in Suriname

Sranan Gold Corp. (CSE: SRAN) (FSE: P84) (Tradegate: P84) (‘Sranan’ or the ‘Company’) announces results from a saprolite interval of the initial drill hole, 25RADD-001, at the Randy’s Pit target located on a 4.5-kilometre mineralized trend at the Tapanahony Project in Suriname. The hole intersected 11.5 metres (m) of 3.64 grams per tonne (gt) gold* in weathered mineralized saprolite from a quartz and gossan (oxidizedsulfide relicts-rich) ore zone.

The hole is 300 m north of Randy’s Pit and 280 m north of the high-grade grab samples of up to 76.6 g/t gold reported in Sranan’s new release dated July 31, 2025, where shafts were being excavated. Hole AP12-14 drilled by Iamgold in 2012 is nearby and also reported similar high-grade gold values and similar thicknesses in the saprolite, including an intersection of 13.5 m of 4.17 g/t gold1.

*Above 0.3 g/t gold with max 3 m of internal dilution

Dr. Dennis LaPoint, EVP of Exploration and Corporate Development, commented: ‘These initial drill results are key for testing the gold potential of the Randy’s Pit target. The results in saprolite, where no prior mining has been conducted by small-scale miners, in addition to the trench results reported on September 9, 2025, define a gold-bearing corridor of 500 metres with gold present in the near-surface weathered rock. We expect continued drilling to define the grade, orientation and structural controls on the Randy’s trend in unweathered rock.

‘Trenching will be used to extend the Randy’s Pit trend further south and diamond core drilling will test beneath Randy’s Pit and the area to the north. Continued drilling will determine how the Randy’s Pit trend and Poeketi mines to the north are linked structurally.’

Samples were prepared and assayed by Filab in Paramaribo, Suriname. All samples >2 g/t were re-assayed with 50-gram re-assay and gravimetric assay. Standard QA/QC procedures were followed which showed a satisfactory level of reproducibility. Reject samples will be sent to an independent lab for confirmation of assay results following standard procedures. Channel sampling, trenching and drilling are used to determine average grade and thickness. The Company notes that the core sample intervals may not represent true thickness of mineralization.
