Graphano Energy (TSXV:GEL, OTC:GELEF) received two exploration permits from Québec's Ministère des Ressources naturelles et des Forêts for its Black Jack graphite discovery, about one kilometre northwest of Black Pearl. Permit ATI-862 covers 1.1 hectares for mechanical rock stripping from September 15, 2026, to October 31, 2027, while ATI-863 covers 2.15 hectares for diamond drilling from October 15, 2026, to November 30, 2027.
The permits enable stripping, detailed mapping and systematic channel sampling as the next exploration phase, followed by drilling under ATI-863. Earlier 2026 work returned 28 grab samples grading 12.0%–26.5% Cg, averaging 19.8% Cg, over an exposed graphite horizon about 100 metres by up to 15 metres, along conductive anomalies with an interpreted strike exceeding 1.1 kilometres. Graphano also reported that its proposed APIC metal additive manufacturing transaction with 3D Genesis Technologies remains under TSX Venture Exchange review, with a definitive agreement under negotiation and closing still subject to Exchange acceptance and customary conditions.
Graphano Energy (TSXV: GEL, FSE: 97G0; OTC: GELEF) announced the TSX Venture Exchange approval is pending for the appointment of Andrew Gainsbury as Chief Financial Officer and Director, effective July 27, 2026. Gainsbury has served as interim CFO since March 1, 2026 and previously as Controller, bringing over 16 years of financial management and consulting experience in Canada and Brazil.
The company also reported the passing of Director and former CFO James (Jay) Richardson, acknowledging his contributions since 2020. In addition, Graphano provided an update on its proposed earn-in transaction with 3D Genesis Technologies regarding the APIC metal additive manufacturing technology, which remains under TSX Venture Exchange review and subject to acceptance and customary closing conditions.
Graphano Energy (OTC:GELEF) signed a binding MOU with 3D Genesis to fund and earn up to a 39% stake in a JV commercializing the APIC graphite-enabled metal additive manufacturing technology.
Graphano may invest up to $800,000 and issue 2,000,000 shares in four milestone-based stages, with rights of first refusal and optional fixed-rate development funding.
Graphano Energy (OTCQB:GELEF) reported high-grade graphitic carbon grab sample results from the new Black Jack graphite showing in Quebec, about 1 km northwest of Black Pearl.
All 28 grab samples assayed 12.0–26.5% Cg with an average of 19.8% Cg. Twenty-five samples exceeded 15.0% Cg and 15 samples were 20.0% Cg or higher. Samples came from a visually continuous graphite-bearing horizon about 100 metres long and up to 15 metres wide, situated along airborne conductive anomalies with an indicated strike length over 1.1 kilometres. Graphano plans mapping, stripping and systematic channel sampling to assess continuity, width and scale.
Graphano Energy (OTCQB: GELEF) completed its spring prospecting program northwest of the Black Pearl graphite showing in Québec and identified a new graphite discovery named Black Jack.
Initial work exposed a graphite-bearing horizon about 110 m long and up to 15 m wide, with 19 grab samples collected. Further mapping, mechanical stripping, permitting and channel sampling are planned to define grade, thickness and continuity within the broader Black Pearl graphite trend.
Graphano Energy (TSXV: GELEF) announced its Spring 2026 exploration program at the 100% owned Black Pearl graphite project in Québec, focusing on AI-assisted targeting, channel sampling and Max-Min EM surveys to refine conductive zones and prioritize drilling. The company also filed ATI applications for expanded access and granted 665,000 stock options at $0.15.
Graphano (OTC: GELEF, TSXV: GEL) reported progress at its Black Pearl graphite project in Québec, identifying multiple conductive trends over a strike length exceeding 6 kilometres. Airborne magnetic and TDEM surveys delineated discrete conductive zones interpreted as high-priority graphite targets.
The company engaged AI Resource Exploration to integrate geophysical, geological, and historical datasets to refine targets. Ground work—prospecting, stripping, trenching, sampling, and ground geophysics—will begin in the coming weeks as snow melt permits, to validate conductors ahead of planned drilling.
Graphano (OTC Pink: GELEF) intends to amend the exercise price of 12,334,240 warrants from $0.52 to $0.33 per share, subject to TSX Venture Exchange acceptance. All other warrant terms, including the August 27, 2026 expiry, remain unchanged.
The company says the amendment is intended to reflect current market conditions and that exercised warrants would provide additional working capital. Directors and officers hold ~2.27% of the affected warrants.
The company also named Andrew Gainsbury as interim CFO after James Richardson stepped away for medical reasons.
Graphano Energy (OTC: GELEF) received the final helicopter-borne MAG and TDEM report for the Black Pearl property on February 26, 2026. The interpretation defines an approximately 6.5-kilometre conductive trend with five priority conductive target areas for follow-up.
Previously reported near-surface drill intercepts include 11.33% Cg over 8.61 m and other multi-meter graphite zones; the company plans mapping, sampling and prospecting to refine targets toward geophysics or drill testing.
Graphano Energy (OTC: GELEF) completed a 473-kilometre airborne geophysics survey over the Black Pearl property in Québec on January 16, 2026. Preliminary interpretation confirms a dominant TDEM conductor extending ~1.2 kilometres and identifies numerous new priority conductive targets that expand the target footprint. The release references prior late-2025 drill intercepts including 11.33% Cg over 8.61 m, 4.81% Cg over 12.25 m, and 7.37% Cg over 4.70 m. Technical interpretation and EM target ranking are underway, and a comprehensive geophysical report is expected in approximately five weeks to guide follow-up exploration and drilling planning.
