Kodiak Increases Drill Program to 16,500 Metres and Adds Second Drill RigJune 29, 2026 6:09 AM
NewsfileVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 29, 2026) - Kodiak Copper Corp. (TSXV: KDK) (OTCQX: KDKCF) (FSE: 5DD1) (the "Company" or "Kodiak") today provides an update on its fully funded 2026 exploration program at its 100%-owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern British Columbia. Work is progressing well and the drill program has been increased from 6,500 metres to 16,500 metres with the addition of a second drill rig. HighlightsThe program upsize accelerates work to grow the initial Mineral Resource estimate ("MRE"). All seven deposits in the MRE are open to expansion, most in multiple directions, and drilling is being considered for all of the deposits in 2026.Kodiak's 2026 exploration program commenced at the beginning of May and is expected to continue through late autumn.Drilling was initiated on the Ketchan deposit where 2,546 metres in 14 holes have been drilled to date. Ketchan is currently defined over approximately 1.4 kilometres and has significant expansion potential. The associated soil anomaly extends to over two kilometres and multiple mineralized historic drill holes beyond the deposit are not included in the MRE due to insufficient drill hole density (see news release April 9, 2026). Figure 1 & 2A second drill rig has been mobilized to the southern part of the property where a 3D Induced Polarization/Audio- Magnetotelluric survey on the West, Adit and South deposits has just been completed in anticipation of drilling. Figure 1.In addition to resource expansion drilling, it is anticipated that several of the 36 prospective exploration targets identified to date will be advanced and drill tested this year. Samples are in the laboratory and first drill results are expected by August, with further results throughout the remainder of the year. The results will be incorporated into an updated MRE which is planned for Q1 2027. Claudia Tornquist, President and CEO of Kodiak said, "The 2026 exploration program at MPD is progressing very well, and the addition of a second drill will fast-track our progress as we advance resource growth opportunities across the project and test priority targets. We continue to see considerable scope to expand our maiden resource and are excited by the prospect of new discoveries across our portfolio of targets. With the first assay results expected soon, our shareholders can look forward to strong news flow and many exploration results throughout the remainder of the year, leading to an updated resource estimate in 2027 that will reflect the results of the expanded drilling program."Figure 1: 2026 Target Location Map - MPD Project, Southern BC To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:

ncurry @shadowwAbout Kodiak CopperKodiak is focused on advancing its 100%-owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in the prolific Quesnel Terrane in south-central British Columbia, Canada, an established mining region with producing mines and existing infrastructure. MPD exhibits all the hallmarks of a large, multi-centered porphyry district with the potential for future economic development. The initial Mineral Resource Estimate, published in 2025, outlines seven substantial deposits and underscores the scale and potential of the project.

Kodiak Closes Upsized and Oversubscribed C$15 Million Private Placement, Including Exercise of Agents' OptionJune 25, 2026 9:14 AM
NewsfileVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 25, 2026) - Kodiak Copper Corp. (TSXV: KDK) (OTCQX: KDKCF) (FSE: 5DD1) (the "Company" or "Kodiak") reports that it has closed its upsized and oversubscribed private placement offering pursuant to the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption (as defined herein), previously announced on June 2nd, 2026, with Paradigm Capital Inc. as lead agent and sole bookrunner, on behalf of a syndicate of agents including ATB Capital Markets Corp., Haywood Securities Inc. and Integrity Capital Group Inc. (the "Agents"), for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately C$15 million, which includes the exercise in full of the Agents' option (the "Offering").Pursuant to the Offering, a total of:(i) 9,885,900 charity flow-through common shares of the Company (the "Charity FT Shares") were issued which will qualify as "flow-through shares" (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "ITA")), at a price of C$1.271 per Charity FT Share for gross proceeds of approximately C$12.5 million; and(ii) 3,048,900 common shares of the Company (the "HD Shares", and together with the Charity FT Shares, the "Offered Securities") were issued at a price of C$0.82 per HD Share for gross proceeds of approximately C$2.5 million.Kodiak’s largest shareholder Konwave AG, a prominent European resource fund, participated in the financing, maintaining its proportionate equity ownership in the Company.Claudia Tornquist, President and CEO of Kodiak said, "We are very pleased to have completed this oversubscribed financing and thank both new and existing shareholders for their strong support. With C$15 million in new capital, Kodiak is well funded to advance an exciting 2026 program at MPD, focused on growing and enhancing our maiden resource while also drilling several high-priority exploration targets that have the potential to yield new discoveries. We believe MPD remains significantly underexplored and offers substantial opportunities for continued growth, and we look forward to delivering on the project's potential for our shareholders."In consideration for their services, the Company paid to the Agents a cash fee equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering (reduced to 3% for certain orders on a "President's List"). The Company also issued to the Agents non-transferable common share purchase warrants (the "Compensation Warrants") equal to 6.0% of the number of Offered Securities sold in the Offering (reduced to 3% for certain orders on the President's List). Each Compensation Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one non-flow-through Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.82 for a period of 24 months following the closing date. Subject to compliance with applicable regulatory requirements and in accordance with National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions ("NI 45-106"), the Offered Securities issued pursuant to the Offering were offered for sale to purchasers resident in each of the provinces of Canada, except Québec, and certain other qualifying jurisdictions, which may include subsequent purchasers, pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of NI 45-106, as amended by Coordinated Blanket Order 45-935 - Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption (the "Listed Issuer Financing Exemption"). Because the Offering was completed pursuant to the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption, the Offered Securities issued in the Offering are not subject to a hold period pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws. The Compensation Warrants (and any Common Shares issued upon the exercise thereof) are subject to a hold period ending on October 26, 2026 pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws. The Offering remains subject to final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.Certain insiders of the Company subscribed for a total of 81,000 HD Shares for aggregate gross proceeds of C$66,420. The participation of insiders in the Offering constitutes a "related party transaction", within the meaning of TSX-V Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company has relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, in respect of the related party participation in the Offering, as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involved the interested party, exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101). The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering as the details of the Offering and the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.The net proceeds from the issue of the HD Shares will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company will use an amount equal to the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Charity FT Shares to incur eligible "Canadian exploration expenses" (as defined in the ITA) that qualify as "flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures" (as defined in the ITA) and as "BC flow-through mining expenditures" as ?defined in the Income Tax Act (British Columbia) (the "Qualifying Expenditures") related to the Company's projects in British Columbia, on or before December 31, 2027, and to renounce all the Qualifying Expenditures in favour of the initial subscribers of the Charity FT Shares effective December 31, 2026. In the event that the Company does not renounce on or prior to December 31, 2026 Qualifying Expenditures in an amount equal to the issue price of the Charity FT Shares for each Charity FT Share purchased and/or if the amount of the Qualifying Expenditures are reduced by the Canada Revenue Agency, the Company will indemnify each Charity FT Share subscriber for any additional taxes payable by such subscriber as a result of the Company's failure to renounce the Qualifying Expenditures or as a result of the reduction as agreed.This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the United States. The securities described herein have not been and will not be registered under the United States ?Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or ?sold in the United States absent registration or available exemptions from such registration ?requirements.

Posted on behalf of Kodiak Copper Corp. - Today, Kodiak Copper Corp. (KDK.v KDKCF) commenced its fully funded 2026 exploration program at its 100% owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern British Columbia, targeting expansion of the recently completed initial MRE and advancing new discovery opportunities. The program includes approximately 6,500m of core drilling, 3D-IP and AMT geophysics, mapping and prospecting, beginning at the Ketchan deposit, which will be drilled for the first time by Kodiak. There is expansion potential across all seven MRE deposits, including Ketchan, Adit and Dillard, where step-outs, under-drilled gaps, and supporting geochemical and geophysical anomalies highlight growth opportunities. In addition, 16 new targets identified through regional exploration and VRIFY AI-assisted targeting increase the total pipeline to 36 prospective targets across the district-scale project.

Kodiak Commences 2026 Exploration Program at the MPD Copper-Gold Porphyry ProjectApril 28, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfileVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 28, 2026) - Kodiak Copper Corp. (TSXV: KDK) (OTCQX: KDKCF) (FSE: 5DD1) (the "Company" or "Kodiak") today reports that the Company has commenced its fully-funded 2026 exploration program at its 100% owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern British Columbia. The program will include drilling aimed at expanding the recently completed initial Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"), and field investigations to advance multiple exploration targets with the potential for new discoveries.The 2026 field program will involve core drilling, 3D induced polarization (IP) and audio- magnetotelluric (AMT) geophysical surveying, geological mapping and prospecting. Core drilling will commence at the Ketchan deposit, which has not previously been drilled by Kodiak. The 2026 drill program is anticipated to total 6,500 metres, with scope for expansion as the program progresses. Further exploration activities will focus on target evaluation and prioritisation in support of drill planning, on both the known deposits and prospective exploration targets of interest. Examples of priority areas, based on the current data available, are included below.2026 Exploration Program Highlights (see news release April 9, 2026)Kodiak has identified opportunities to expand all seven deposits in the MRE, including potential extensions beyond the current mineralized zones and gaps within the MRE models.It is expected that most of the seven deposits will be drilled in 2026, with drill metre allocation guided and refined based on ongoing results. The growth potential of the Ketchan (Figures 1, 2 & 3), Adit (Figures 1 & 4) and Dillard (Figures 1 & 5) deposits is provided below.Kodiak has also identified 16 new exploration targets at MPD, including historical showings on recently acquired claims, prospects from 2025 regional exploration program and Areas of Interest generated by VRIFY Artificial Intelligence (AI) assisted targeting.To date, the total number of prospective targets identified for follow-up is now 36, highlighting the continued exploration upside and discovery potential on the MPD Project.Kodiak plans to advance or drill several of these compelling targets in 2026, including the Dillard East, Star and Tau targets presented in this news release (Figures 1, 6 & 7).Claudia Tornquist, President and CEO of Kodiak, said, "We are pleased to commence our 2026 exploration program at MPD, building on the success of last year's maiden resource. Our focus is to expand known deposits and advance a strong pipeline of high-quality targets that offer meaningful discovery potential. With a clear path to resource growth and new discoveries, we believe this program will be a key driver in unlocking further value at MPD."Figure 1: 2026 Target Location Map - MPD Project, Southern BC To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:
https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/3803/294508_400cde9264abda4a_002full.jpgKetchan Deposit - Expansion PotentialThe Ketchan deposit consists of two lobes that are defined over a total length of approximately 1.4 kilometres. The deposit was developed entirely using historic drilling by previous operators and will be drilled for the first time by Kodiak in 2026. Mineralization was noted in holes well beyond the extent of the MRE, however not all holes could be included due to insufficient drill hole density.In addition, Kodiak's 2025 regional exploration confirmed a well-defined copper-in-soil anomaly along more than two kilometres of strike length, significantly beyond the current limits of the MRE (see news release February 24, 2026).A priority area for potential expansion is to the southeast of the MRE where historic drilling at surface intersected substantial mineralization approximately 400 metres from the current deposit (Figure 2 & 3). The gap between the north and south lobes also has limited drilling and is highlighted by anomalous rock and copper-in-soil results.Data from numerous rock samples, soil samples, 3D - Induced Polarization surveys, geology and drilling suggest the deposit can also be expanded in multiple other areas.Figure 2: Ketchan Deposit Long-SectionTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:

https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/3803/294508_400cde9264abda4a_004full.jpgAdit Deposit - Expansion PotentialMultiple data sets (drilling, soil, geophysics) suggest there is potential to extend the Adit deposit to the north and west.200 metres north of the MRE, two holes drilled by Kodiak intersected mineralization in an area with very limited drill testing (see news release November 19, 2024).One of the Kodiak holes was drilled towards a VRIFY AI Area of Interest (AOI) to the west of the Adit deposit. The AOI is also associated with a moderate copper-in-soil anomaly. The drill hole intersected four metres of 0.64% Cu and 0.14g/t Au at the end of the hole before the hole was lost. A coincident copper-in-soil anomaly and 3D - Induced Polarization chargeability anomaly located to the northeast of the Adit deposit is also a priority area for follow-up. The anomaly extends 400 metres to the north of the deposit, and results from a 2024 drill hole confirm mineralization is present in the area.Figure 4: Adit Deposit Target Areas for Resource ExpansionTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:
https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/3803/294508_400cde9264abda4a_005full.jpgDillard Deposit - Expansion PotentialThe Dillard area is associated with a large mineralization envelope that has been drilled over an area of 1 km2, extending well beyond the currently defined deposit (Figure 4).Drill hole density is low and there are numerous areas where soil, rock and geophysical data suggest the deposit could be extended.Areas to the west and east of Dillard are the most prospective, however gaps internal to the deposit also have potential. Of particular interest is the west side of the deposit where rock samples have returned assay values ranging from 0.4% Cu to 0.8% Cu. These samples are also associated with copper-in-soil and chargeability anomalies, both of which are located well outside the current edge of the deposit.Figure 5: Dillard Deposit Target Areas for Resource ExpansionTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:

Kodiak Announces 2026 Exploration Plans and Drill Targets for the MPD Copper-Gold ProjectApril 9, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfileVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 9, 2026) - Kodiak Copper Corp. (TSXV: KDK) (OTCQX: KDKCF) (FSE: 5DD1) (the "Company" or "Kodiak") today provides guidance on the 2026 exploration program at its 100% owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern British Columbia.HighlightsKodiak's 2026 exploration program is planned to commence in April and will include a substantial drill program complemented by geophysical surveys, soil sampling, prospecting and mapping. Drilling will focus on growing the recent Initial Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and will also test several prospective exploration targets with the potential for new discoveries.Kodiak has identified opportunities to expand all seven deposits in the MRE, including potential extensions beyond the current mineralized zones and gaps within the MRE models.Drilling will start at the Ketchan deposit and we expect that most of the seven deposits will be drilled in 2026, with drill metre allocation guided and refined based on ongoing results. The growth potential of the Ketchan (Figures 1, 2 & 3), Adit (Figures 1 & 4) and Dillard (Figures 1 & 5) deposits is provided below.The drill program is anticipated to total 6,500 metres, with scope for expansion as the program progresses. Kodiak has also identified 16 new exploration targets at MPD, including historical showings on recently acquired claims, prospects from 2025 regional exploration program and Areas of Interest generated by VRIFY Artificial Intelligence (AI) assisted targeting.To date, the total number of prospective targets identified for follow-up is now 36, highlighting the continued exploration upside and discovery potential on the MPD Project.Kodiak plans to advance or drill several of these compelling targets in 2026, including the Dillard East, Star and Tau targets presented in this news release (Figures 1, 6 & 7).Claudia Tornquist, President and CEO of Kodiak said, "We are looking forward to the start of our 2026 exploration program at MPD. Building on the success of previous campaigns, we see substantial upside across several of our deposits and the opportunity to meaningfully expand our maiden Resource. At the same time, we are excited about the numerous high-quality targets across the project that remain untested and offer compelling discovery potential. With a clear path to both resource growth and new discoveries, we are well positioned to unlock significant value as we execute on this highly impactful exploration program with the aim to meaningfully grow the scale of the project."Figure 1: 2026 Target Location Map - MPD Project, Southern BC To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:
https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/3803/291706_bdee0d1f44c7d9ff_002full.jpgKetchan Deposit - Expansion PotentialThe Ketchan deposit consists of two lobes that are defined over a total length of approximately 1.4 kilometres. The deposit was developed entirely using historic drilling by previous operators and will be drilled for the first time by Kodiak in 2026. Mineralization was noted in holes well beyond the extent of the MRE, however not all holes could be included due to insufficient drill hole density.In addition, Kodiak's 2025 regional exploration confirmed a well-defined copper-in-soil anomaly along more than two kilometres of strike length, significantly beyond the current limits of the MRE (see news release February 24, 2026).A priority area for potential expansion is to the southeast of the MRE where historic drilling at surface intersected substantial mineralization approximately 400 metres from the current deposit (Figure 2 & 3). The gap between the north and south lobes also has limited drilling and is highlighted by anomalous rock and copper-in-soil results.Data from numerous rock samples, soil samples, 3D - Induced Polarization surveys, geology and drilling suggest the deposit can also be expanded in multiple other areas.

https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/3803/291706_bdee0d1f44c7d9ff_004full.jpgAdit Deposit - Expansion PotentialMultiple data sets (drilling, soil, geophysics) suggest there is potential to extend the Adit deposit to the north and west.200 metres north of the MRE, two holes drilled by Kodiak intersected mineralization in an area with very limited drill testing (see news release November 19, 2024).One of the Kodiak holes was drilled towards a VRIFY AI Area of Interest (AOI) to the west of the Adit deposit. The AOI is also associated with a moderate copper-in-soil anomaly. The drill hole intersected four metres of 0.64% Cu and 0.14g/t Au at the end of the hole before the hole was lost. A coincident copper-in-soil anomaly and 3D - Induced Polarization chargeability anomaly located to the northeast of the Adit deposit is also a priority area for follow-up. The anomaly extends 400 metres to the north of the deposit, and results from a 2024 drill hole confirm mineralization is present in the area.

https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/3803/291706_bdee0d1f44c7d9ff_005full.jpgDillard Deposit - Expansion PotentialThe Dillard area is associated with a large mineralization envelope that has been drilled over an area of 1 km2, extending well beyond the currently defined deposit (Figure 4).Drill hole density is low and there are numerous areas where soil, rock and geophysical data suggest the deposit could be extended.Areas to the west and east of Dillard are the most prospective, however gaps internal to the deposit also have potential. Of particular interest is the west side of the deposit where rock samples have returned assay values ranging from 0.4% Cu to 0.8% Cu. These samples are also associated with copper-in-soil and chargeability anomalies, both of which are located well outside the current edge of the deposit.

Posted on behalf of Kodiak Copper Corp – With clear pathways to both resource expansion and new discoveries, Kodiak Copper's (KDK.v KDKCF) 2025 regional exploration program at the 100%-owned MPD copper-gold project has reinforced the asset as a multi-target, district-scale porphyry system:

The latest soil geochemistry and prospecting results validate historical high-grade showings while demonstrating strong potential to grow the recently defined Ketchan resource and advance a pipeline of untested targets ahead of the 2026 campaign.

Posted on behalf of Kodiak Copper Corp. - In a recent interview with former Dragons’ Den star Michael Wekerle, Kodiak Copper Corp. (KDK.v KDKCF) President and CEO Claudia Tornquist emphasized the company’s growth potential relative to more advanced copper peers as exploration progresses:

“There's still a lot of catching up to do for Kodiak… just by continuing to derisk the project, we will get into those higher market cap ranges; I'm very confident.”

KDK is advancing its 100%-owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern BC following a maiden resource estimate that outlined seven deposits containing 82.9Mt indicated at 0.39% CuEq and 356.3Mt inferred at 0.32% CuEq (see KDK's December 9, 2025 news release).

Tornquist highlighted MPD’s location in an established mining district between two major copper mines as a key advantage for future development. She also pointed to continued upside, with all deposits remaining open and more than 20 additional exploration targets across the broader land package, alongside a strategy focused on expanding known mineralized zones, testing new targets, maintaining capital discipline, and systematically derisking the project.

ncurry @shadowwAbout Kodiak Copper Corp.Kodiak is focused on advancing its copper porphyry projects in Canada and the USA, which host known mineral discoveries with the potential to hold large-scale deposits. Kodiak Copper's most advanced asset is the 100% owned MPD copper-gold porphyry project in the prolific Quesnel Terrane in south-central British Columbia, Canada, an established mining region with producing mines and excellent infrastructure. MPD exhibits all the hallmarks of a large, multi-centered porphyry district with the potential for future economic development. The initial Mineral Resource Estimate published in 2025 outlines seven substantial deposits and underscores the scale and potential of the project. All known deposits remain open to expansion, and numerous targets across the property have yet to be tested. Kodiak continues to systematically explore MPD's district-scale potential with the goal of delivering new discoveries and building further critical mass toward being the region's next mine. Kodiak's founder and Chairman is Chris Taylor who is well-known for his gold discovery success with Great Bear Resources. Kodiak is also part of Discovery Group led by John Robins, one of the most successful mining entrepreneurs in Canada.Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.Forward-Looking Statement (Safe Harbor Statement): This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws.
