Highlights also include 40m at 3.0 g/t PGM+Au + 0.32% Ni, 52m at 2.1 g/t PGM+Au + 0.11% Ni, and 16m at 3.1 g/t PGM+Au + 0.23% Ni, including 5m at 7.5 g/t PGM+Au + 0.32% Ni

TORONTO, Sept. 14, 2026 /CNW/ -- Bravo Mining Corp. (TSXV: BRVO) (OTCQX: BRVMF), ("Bravo" or the "Company") is pleased to report assay results from seven infill and step-out drill holes in the Central Sector and one from the North Sector at its 100% owned Luanga palladium + platinum + rhodium + gold + nickel deposit ("Luanga deposit" or "Luanga PGM+Au+Ni deposit"), located in the Carajás Mineral Province, Pará State, Brazil.

"These results from infill and extensional drilling in the Central Sector continue to demonstrate potential to expand and upgrade Luanga's mineral resource. The results reported herein consistently show grades and/or thicknesses that, for the most part, are equal or better than those recorded in shallower drilling. The sections presented in this release illustrate the Central Sector's continuity and consistent thickness as we drill deeper," said Luis Azevedo, Chairman and CEO. "The results of the ongoing drill program will form part of an updated Mineral Resource Estimate targeted for Q1 2027 following the planned publication of the Luanga PFS in Q3 2026. Concurrently, our Copper-Gold Team continues the geophysical program and drill target selection work. The team is also evaluating a number of opportunities that have the potential to expand the company's copper-gold footprint in the Carajás".

Highlights Include:

• The 2026 infill and extensional drill program continues to progress well and on schedule, with results from the Central Sector targeting expansion of the mineralization at depth and increasing drill density with the objective of supporting an upgrade of the Inferred component of the existing Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") to the Indicated category.
• Results reported herein continue to demonstrate similar or better mineralized thicknesses and/or PGM+Au grades, commonly associated with increased Ni sulphide grades in the main sulphide zone ("MSZ").
• Sections 1 and 2 (Figures 1 and 2) are infill sections, where drilling aims to support the upgrading of shallow Inferred resources to the Indicated category. The Company believes results to date support the objective.
• Section 3 (Figure 3) shows that extensional drilling (i.e. Hole DDH26LU342) continues to demonstrate mineralization continuity at depths exceeding 300m below surface, highlighting the potential for additional Inferred mineral resources to be reflected in next MRE update, planned to Q1 2027.

Luanga Drilling Update

Results from eight diamond drill holes have been received; seven from the Central Sector and one from the North Sector of the Luanga PGM+Au+Ni deposit. All drill holes reported herein are angled holes (-60°, except for DDH26LU321 at -55°), towards an azimuth of 330° (except for DDH26LU336 which is angled towards 090°). Together, this set of drill holes comprises a total of 2,655 metres of diamond drilling.

Section 1 (Figure 1) in the Central Sector is an infill section, where drilling on this section aims to support upgrading deeper nferred mineral resources to the Indicated category. On this section the MSZ mineralization is defined to approximately 250m below surface, with DDH24LU322 placed to support upgrading of the Inferred mineral resources to this depth. Results continue to track the trend of deeper drilling encountering comparable mineralized grades. Mineralized thicknesses remain consistent across the section.

Section 2 (Figure 2) in the Central Sector is an infill section, where drilling on this section aims to support upgrading the deeper Inferred mineral resources to the Indicated category. On this section, the MSZ mineralization is defined to approximately 450m below surface, with DDH26LU321 placed to support upgrading of Inferred mineral resources to a depth of approximately 350m.

Results continue to track as expected, confirming the trend of deeper drilling encountering comparable or better PGM+Au grades, as shown from DDH23LU162 to DDH26LU321 and then to DDH23LU204 below that. Mineralized thicknesses remain consistent across the drill holes on the section.

Section 3 (Figure 3) in Central Sector shows an extensional drill section, where drill hole DDH26LU342 has been added, stepping back approximately 75m behind previously reported 2026 Bravo drill hole DDH26LU312. Drilling on this section aims to support the potential definition of new Inferred mineral resources at depths that are still relatively shallow. The MSZ mineralization continues at depth, with similar grades and mineralized thicknesses to those previously seen up dip.

In this section, new drilling in 2026 (DDH26LU312 and DDH26LU342) extends the MSZ definition from a previously shallow depth of less than 200m, to approximately 350m below surface. Further potential exists to extend mineralization at depth, where it remains open.

Drill Results Status Update

In total, 447 drill holes have been completed by Bravo to date, for 98,180 metres, including 8 metallurgical holes (not subject to routine assaying). Results have been reported for 404 Bravo drill holes to date. Assay results for 35 holes are currently outstanding (excluding the metallurgical holes), which mostly relate to exploration drilling outside the Luanga PGM+Au+Ni resource area. In total, 58 trenches have been completed to date (for 10,901 metres), with results from 6 trenches currently pending.

Schedule 1: Drill Hole Collar Details

Schedule 2: Assay Methodologies and QAQC

Samples follow a chain of custody between collection, processing, and delivery to the SGS Geosol laboratory in Parauapebas, state of Pará, Brazil. The drill core is delivered to the core shack at Bravo's Luanga site facilities and processed by geologists who insert certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates into the sampling sequence. Drill core is half cut and placed in secured polyurethane bags, then in security-sealed sacks before being delivered directly from the Luanga site facilities to the Parauapebas SGS Geosol laboratory by Bravo staff. Additional information about the methodology can be found on the SGS Geosol website (SGS) in their analytical guides. Information regarding preparation and analysis of historic drill core is also presented in the table below, where the information is known.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control ("QAQC") is maintained internally at the lab through rigorous use of internal certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates. An additional QAQC program is administered by Bravo using certified reference materials, duplicate samples and blank samples that are blindly inserted into the sample batch. If a QAQC sample returns an unacceptable value an investigation into the results is triggered and when deemed necessary, the samples that were tested in the batch with the failed QAQC sample are re-tested.
