Boron One Holdings Inc. - Jarandol Basin Exploration Program Update
Boron One starts a new field program at Jarandol Basin to test boron targets near its Piskanja project and historic Pobrdje mine.
Rhea-AI Summary
Boron One Holdings (ERVFF) has begun this season’s field exploration program on its 21 km² Jarandol Basin license in southern Serbia. The work, executed by wholly owned subsidiary Balkan Gold, includes geological mapping at 1:2,500 scale, 75 soil samples, 3 trenches with 33 trench samples, 4 drill holes totaling about 1,400 m, 120 core samples and 65 petrographic samples.
The program aims to test high‑value drill targets for boron identified in earlier work and to evaluate potential extensions of the company’s Piskanja boron deposit and/or the nearby Pobrdje boron mine, as well as other possible boron deposits. Earlier drilling in the basin returned borate intervals up to 1.88 m grading 41.33% B₂O₃, 1.3 m at 41.88% B₂O₃ and 1.75 m at 39.71% B₂O₃.

VICTORIA, BC / ACCESS Newswire / September 8, 2026 / Boron One Holdings Inc. ("Boron One" or the "Company") [TSXV:BONE], a company dedicated to the decarbonization of our planet through the responsible utilization of its boron assets, reports that its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Balkan Gold d.o.o., has commenced the implementation of this season's field exploration works on its Jarandol Basin license area in Serbia. The Jarandol Basin License, a 21 km2 area, is directly adjacent to the Company's Piskanja borate deposit.
This season's exploration at Jarandol is planned to include:
Geological mapping at a scale of 1:2,500
75 soil samples
3 trenches, with 33 trench samples
4 drill holes (totaling approx. 1,400 m)
120 core samples
65 petro samples
The purpose of this season's field work is to test high value drill targets within the basin for potential boron content, which were identified as a result of previous field works. Previous exploration by Balkan Gold has shown that the Jarandol Basin has the potential to host extensions to the Company's Piskanja boron deposit and/or to the Pobrdje boron mine (located 2.5 km away on the other extremity of the basin), as both of these deposits remain unbounded towards the center of the Basin. In addition, the Basin holds the potential to host additional, unrelated boron deposits.
About the Jarandol Basin Project
The Jarandol Exploration License (received in April of 2024 and valid for 3 years) covers 21.03 km2, and is extendable up to a total of 8 years, subject to Serbian mining regulations. The Jarandol Basin License contains all the land within the basin which is prospective for boron, including the territory directly adjacent to, and in between, the Company's
The Jarandol Basin is a well-known, historical mining district in southern Serbia which hosts two known boron deposits, and an operating coal mine. The Basin contains excellent infrastructure for mining (having hosted mining operations continuously for more than 100 years) including paved roads, rail, power, experienced miners, and sufficient support industries, located 250 km south of Belgrade by all season, paved roads.
In a previous drill program conducted by Balkan Gold, at a location in the Basin approximately midway between the Piskanja and Pobrdje deposits, 6 exploratory drill holes returned occurrences of borates. Three of the six drill holes intersected occurrences of borates that exceed the Company's economic criteria for grade and thickness. Two of the six drill holes intersected one boron layer of potential economic grade and thickness, while a third drill hole intersected two distinct prospective boron layers. Mineralized intervals included one intersection of 1.88 meters averaging
