AKORA Resources Limited (ASX: AKO , AKORA or the Company ) is pleased to report its activities during the September 2021 quarter.

AKORA Managing Director Paul Bibby commented, Excellent progress has been made across several fronts as we advance the major drilling campaign at Bekisopa which continues to deliver impressive iron intercepts that will enable AKORA to realise its maiden JORC resource by the end of the year.

Operating activities

Community interaction

The Company executed a water drilling agreement with ONG St Gabriel Madagascar, a notfor-profit organisation affiliated with the Catholic Church to establishment a permanent source of potable water and distribution system with our primary community stakeholders.

St Gabriel will drill a water bore, to an estimated depth of 80 metres, and construct a 12-metrehigh water tower with capacity to provide storage capacity of 10,000 litres for the Commune of Tanamarina. St Gabriel will also install solar panels, to charge the large batteries, so water can be pumped to five locations around the Commune including the first Aid Hospital and Gendamarie.

The Company has also been supplying the Commune with materials for the Commune school and general medical supplies for the first aid clinic operated by the Commune.

Health, safety and environment

Drilling activities and various support activities continued to operate to the highest standards set by the Company for health, safety and environment. No reportable lost time incident or environmental incident was recorded during the quarter.

The Company requests that consultants and contractors before travelling to the project area have a negative COVID-19 test result. Since the commencement of exploration and specifically drilling in 2020 and in 2021, the Company has recorded only one LTI.

Ministry of Mines & Strategic Resources visits Bekisopa exploration site

In mid-September AKORA welcomed the representatives of the Ministry of Mines and Resources Strategy (MMRS) to the Tanamarina commune and the Bekisopa exploration site. The Madame Director for the Fianarantsoa District, and four of her colleagues, had a very informative and successful visit. According to the Director “we are satisfied with the Company’s answers and have enjoyed our visit and stay at the Bekisopa camp. Our report to superiors will state the Company is serious about its project and a reliable Company, especially their social contribution to Tanamarina water programme.”

Tenement fees

The 2021 annual tenement administration fees ( frais d’administration annuel ) totalling some A$94,000 were paid this quarter to the Bureau de Cadastre Minier du Madagascar maintaining our fees as up to date . Malagasy administrative law provides that where a private party has complied with its obligations in good faith and the State (BCMM and Ministere du Miner) has not completed their administrative responsibilities, the private party may rely on its existing rights and there is an assumption that these will continue to subsist.

2021 Bekisopa Drilling Campaign

The 2021 Bekisopa drilling campaign for ~4,500 metres continued safely during the September quarter and very successfully with weathered massive iron mineralisation intercepts from surface plus deeper un-weathered iron mineralisation confirming depth potential. These very encouraging iron mineralisation intercepts have been observed along 5kms of the 6km strike. The first month’s drilling completed on 13 July 2021, with 10 holes for 660m (see ASX Announcement 20 July 2021). The second month’s drilling completed on 9 August 2021, with 13 holes for 734m (see ASX Announcement 17 August 2021). The third month’s drilling for 827.3m was completed on 16 September 2021 with the first deep drill hole BEKD43 which finished in mineralisation at 185m down hole (see ASX Announcements 14 September and 26 September 2021). 2,840 metres of diamond drilling was completed by the end of September.

Over the Quarter 29 drill holes were completed, the first series defining the eastern edge of the magnetic anomaly along the strike and then the deep drill holes adding width and confirming depth to the iron mineralisation. All drill holes completed on the main tenement 10430 either intercepted what appears to be high-grade, weathered, massive mineralisation in the near surface intercepts and extensive lengths of massive and coarse disseminated mineralisation at depth. The mineralisation appears from the on-site logging and magnetic susceptibility readings to contain high iron contents.

The first deep drill hole, BEKD43, shows a 134.5m intercept (not true width) that finished at 185.4m down hole, showing the depth extent of the iron mineralisation at Bekisopa (see ASX Announcement 26 September 2021). Importantly, this has suggested that the recently identified south-western area, drill holes BEKD 28 to BEKD36, may be continuous with the main southern area, significantly increasing tonnage potential in the south of the project area. The confirmed iron mineralisation width across this section is some 650 metres. BEKD45, 150m south, and BEKD46, 150m north, of drill hole BEKD43 show similar extensive iron mineralisation intercepts of 80m and 130m respectively.

Page 5 of 16

This extensive intercept, and expanding Southern drill grid, adds encouragement to defining a substantial initial mineral resource estimate at Bekisopa.

During September and October, drilling and geology QA / QC continued in the south then moved to the northern area. The drilling campaign moved onto a 24-hour roster with two drilling crews at Bekisopa since mid-September with the arrival of the larger drill rig to complete 20 deeper 150m to 250m holes and ensuring completion of the drilling in late October.

Assaying has commenced at ALS Perth on the first 18 drill holes and we expect reporting on these assay results in the coming week. The drilling and assay results will be continually reported on over the coming months leading up to reporting of the maiden Bekisopa JORC compliant resource by the end of the year assuming the drilling equipment, sample preparation, international logistics and resource estimation continues to plan.

Bekisopa Crushing Trials

Crushing trials on 2020 drill cores taken from AKORA’s flagship Bekisopa Iron Ore Project showed excellent iron ore product grades of 62% at a 3mm crush size and 64% at a 2mm crush size from massive and coarse disseminated iron mineralisation types. As expected, the iron grade increases proportionally with finer crush sizes while the silica, alumina, phosphorus and sulphur levels decrease substantially.

Analysis of the product grades achieved from all processing trials (including those reported on 13 April 2021, 27 April 2021 and 25 June 2021) showed the iron mineralisation along the Bekisopa strike length is able to deliver high grade iron products, equal and better than the Benchmark 62%Fe products. The excellent product grades observed from along the strike where the 2021 drill grids were planned, ranged from 60.7 to 68.3%Fe, averaging 65.2%Fe, with weathered mineralisation upgrading to a very high grade 66.9% iron fines.

Bekisopa process trial, BEKMETF04, showed that weathered massive iron mineralisation readily upgraded to a 66.9%Fe fines product at a 2mm crush size.

Page 6 of 16

Previous processing trials at 2mm and wLIMS delivered very clean fines products at excellent iron grades and low impurity contents. The series of process trials at crush sizes from 3mm down to 0.25mm has achieved a benchmark product grade of 62% iron at 3mm after wLIMS with markedly improved iron grades and lower impurity contents at finer crushing sizes.

These trials confirm that a 2mm crush delivers quality high-grade iron ore fines products, therefore, we have decided for the JORC resource estimation to conduct product trials on drill core samples from the 2021 drilling campaign at 2mm and wLIMS. This series of crushing trials confirm the favorable upgrading characteristics of the iron mineralisation at Bekisopa in achieving high-grade clean iron ore fines products.

Corporate activities

Corporate advisory role

The Company retained Vert Capital Pty Ltd (Vert) to act as Investment Broker and Corporate Advisor. Vert will assist the Company to secure new investors through marketing the Company and its exploration success to Australian and overseas investors as well as assist with other corporate advisory matters.

Should Vert be issued these shares, it has also agreed to place them into voluntary escrow for a period of 12 months from the date of their issue.
