Fortuna intersects 6.0 g/t gold over 24.1 meters at Southern Arc, Diamba Sud Project, Senegal
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fortuna Mining Corp. (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."

| DSDD612: | 6.4 g/t Au 12.6 g/t Au 2.4 g/t Au 10.7 g/t Au 10.3 g/t Au 25.5 g/t Au 19.0 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 meters over an estimated true width of 6.2 meters from 115.3 meters, including over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 118 meters over an estimated true width of 7.2 meters from 135.45 meters, including over an estimated true width of 1.2 meters from 135.45 meters, and over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 139 meters |
| DSDD614: | 10.1 g/t Au 13.7 g/t Au 16.5 g/t Au | over an estimated true width of 12.1 meters from 141.75 meters, including over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 146 meters, and over an estimated true width of 4.0 meters from 148 meters |
| DSDD642: | 2.3 g/t Au 10.9 g/t Au 11.5 g/t Au | over an estimated true width of 36 meters from 229 meters, including over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 246 meters, and over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 248 meters |
| DSR1039: | 5.2 g/t Au 43.8 g/t Au 12.4 g/t Au 36.1 g/t Au | over an estimated true width of 24 meters from 90 meters, including over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 95 meters, and over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 100 meters, and over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 112 meters |
At Southern Arc, key objectives include continuing step-out drilling to test strike and depth extensions along strike to the southwest, northeast, and south, where mineralization remains open (see Figures 2 and 3). For example, drill hole DSDD606 (Figure 2) returned 8.4 g/t gold over an estimated true width of 10.4 meters from 136 meters and downhole, and a further 2.6 g/t gold over an estimated true width of 10.6 meters from 181 meters, highlighting the open nature of the system. Additional step-out drilling to test depth and strike projections is planned for the second quarter of 2026 along with re-entry and deepening of historic hole DSR936, which previously terminated short of the mineralized zone.
Mineralization at Southern Arc occurs as variable fine stockwork vein arrays and diffuse pyrite-silica flooding, with a strong spatial association to hydrothermal breccias and carbonate units (Figures 2 and 3). The system commonly exhibits extensive hematite alteration, consistent with mineralization observed at other prospects at Diamba Sud.
Drilling is continuing with 5 drill rigs across the project site testing multiple targets.

| DSR1022: | 2.2 g/t Au 15.7 g/t Au | over an estimated true width of 19.2 meters from 35 meters, including over an estimated true width of 0.8 meters from 57 meters |
A further 46 reverse circulation and diamond core drill holes, totalling 4,471 meters, have been completed at Moungoundi since the previous exploration update and have been incorporated into the recently updated Diamba Sud Mineral Resource estimate. The program was designed to upgrade resource confidence through infill drilling while also expanding the mineralized footprint through step-out drilling. Mineralization remains open at depth and along strike, and additional drilling is planned to test for potential extensions and possible structural links to the adjacent Western Splay deposit.
Mineralization at Moungoundi occurs within intercalated hydrothermal breccias, carbonate metasedimentary units, and granitic to dioritic intrusive rocks. Mineralization is typically associated with vein arrays preferentially hosted within hydrothermal breccias.

An additional 17 infill drill holes, totaling 1,773 meters, were completed at Area D, Kassasoko, and Karakara (Figure 1). The program was designed to enhance resource confidence by targeting areas previously classified as Inferred Mineral Resources within the recently released updated Diamba Sud Mineral Resource.
Refer to Appendix 1 for full details of the drill holes and assay results for this drill program.
Quality Assurance & Quality Control (QA - QC)
All drilling data completed by the Company utilized the following procedures and methodologies. All drilling was carried out under the supervision of the Company's personnel.
All reverse circulation (RC) drilling used a 5.25-inch face sampling pneumatic hammer with samples collected into 60-liter plastic bags. Samples were kept dry by maintaining enough air pressure to exclude groundwater inflow. If water ingress exceeded the air pressure, RC drilling was stopped, and drilling converted to diamond core tails. Once collected, RC samples were riffle split through a three-tier splitter to yield a 12.5 percent representative sample for submission to the analytical laboratory. The residual 87.5 percent samples were stored at the drill site until assay results were received and validated. Coarse reject samples for all mineralized samples corresponding to significant intervals are retained and stored on-site at the Company-controlled core yard.
All diamond drilling (DD) drill holes started with HQ sized diameter, before reducing to NQ diameter diamond drill bits on intersecting fresh rock. The core was logged, marked up for sampling using standard lengths of one meter or to a geological boundary. Samples were then cut into equal halves using a diamond saw. One half of the core was left in the original core box and stored in a secure location at the Company core yard at the project site. The other half was sampled, catalogued, and placed into sealed bags and securely stored at the site until shipment.
All RC and DD samples were transported by Company vehicle or commercial courier to ALS Global's preparation laboratories in Kedougou, Senegal with prepared sample pulps then transported via commercial courier to ALS Global's analytical facility in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Routine gold analysis using a 50-gram charge and fire assay with an atomic absorption finish was completed for all samples. Samples returning assays >10 ppm Au were reanalyzed using a 50-gram charge and fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Quality control procedures included the systematic insertion of blanks, duplicates and sample standards into the sample stream. In addition, the ALS Global laboratory inserted its own quality control samples.
