Kalo Gold Updates Structural and Geological Model at Vatu Aurum Project, Fiji

Kalo Gold updated its structural and geological model for the 100%-owned Vatu Aurum Project (Vanua Levu, Fiji), reframing the area as a single multi-phase, structurally reactivated volcanic complex and refining exploration targeting. The company identifies a West‑East Transfer Zone (WETZ), a segmented Nubu Graben, and a dominant NW‑SE oblique fault network as key controls on gold mineralization, and highlights the Qiriyaga vent field and caldera-related features as potential magmatic fluid sources. A completed 6,212 line‑kilometre high‑resolution airborne magnetic survey (100 m spacing, 50 m infill) will be integrated with LiDAR, lineation, mapping, and geochemical data to sharpen drill targeting. Management granted 7.5M DSUs (vesting May 26, 2027) and 7.5M stock options at C$0.185 (vesting 50%/12m, 50%/24m). Market impact: the update improves technical confidence and targeting precision for future exploration but does not constitute a resource; implications are positive for Kalo’s prospectivity while having limited immediate impact on the broader gold price (XAUUSD).
