Orosur Mining Inc Announces Infill Drilling Hits 104m @ 6.61g/t Au at Pepas
PEP047 - 104m @ 6.61g/t Au from surface
PEP048 - 32.3m @ 3.65g/t Au from surface

Soil sampling about to recommence at El Cedro
LONDON, UK / / August 5, 2025 / Orosur Mining Inc. ("Orosur" or the "Company") (TSXV:OMI)(AIM:OMI), is pleased to announce an update on the progress of exploration activities at the Company's flagship, 100% owned, Anzá Gold Project ("Project") in Colombia.
As announced on 14th July 2025, the Company has taken the formal decision to commence infill drilling at its Pepas gold prospect, with the target of moving Pepas to a NI43-101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) by the end of the year.
The first several holes of this program (announced 17th July 2025), vindicated this decision by returning exceptional widths and grades, especially hole PEP045 which returned 62.3m @ 12.76g/t Au.
A drill program has been designed in conjunction with external consultants to facilitate an MRE being calculated. This program has been designed with the multiple objectives of infilling previous drilling, expanding beyond current drilling to define the boundaries, and understanding the geological controls upon mineralisation and the variations in geology and grade across the deposit.
Holes will be drilled in an order that attempts to address these issues concurrently.
As a result of the shallow nature of mineralisation, holes are generally short, taking between three and four days to complete on average. When the Company reassumed control of the Project in December 2024, samples were shifted to a fire-assay laboratory facility in Medellin, that has consistently provided 3-4 days turnaround of assay results. The Company is thus currently averaging roughly one hole per week with only one rig - an exceptionally fast rate of progress by industry standards.
These three holes announced today are a continuation of this infill program and have all returned exceptional results (most especially PEP047), with thick sequences of high-grade gold mineralisation commencing from surface.

Table 1. Latest drill Intercepts, Pepas Prospect
Infill drilling is ongoing, but the recent holes are already beginning to provide greater understanding of the genesis of Pepas and, as importantly, grade distribution which will be vital for mine planning studies.
While drilling continues, in the near term, the Company will soon begin to undertake additional studies on such issues as metallurgy, mining planning and logistics, so that Pepas can be advanced as quickly as possible post its maiden MRE.

El Cedro
The El Cedro prospect is a large gold porphyry system, located toward the south of the Anzá project, on the same granted EL as the Pepas and APTA deposits.
As previously announced (28th May 2025), the Company had commenced a large soil sampling program at El Cedro, designed to expand upon previous work by Anglo American and the Company's previous JV partner. This sampling program was roughly 1/3 complete when it had to be suspended due to road damage sustained from an unusually wet season in the region. Rains have now abated, and this road damage has been repaired such that Company geological crews will be returning to El Cedro this week to recommence this program.
Orosur CEO Brad George commented:
"The latest results at Pepas continue to impress. While size remains to be defined, the picture of Pepas as a highly lucrative mining proposition is rapidly solidifying. We are increasingly confident that there is a commercially viable opportunity at Pepas and so we will very soon commence non-drill related studies to begin the process of advancing Pepas toward development."
Colombia - ANZÁ Project
The Anzá Project is now 100% owned by the Company following completion of a Share Purchase Agreement ("SPA"), announced 28th November 2024, whereby the Company purchased all of the shares of its previous JV partner; Minera Monte Aguila ("MMA").
The Project, which is located 50km west of Medellin, is easily accessible and boasts excellent infrastructure including water, power and communications as well as a large exploration camp.
From September 2018 to November 2024, the Anzá Project was under the control of its previous JV partner MMA, itself a 50/50 venture between the world's two largest gold miners, Agnico Eagle Mines and Newmont Mining.
Prospects
The Company is currently focussed on three prospects within the Anzá Project - Pepas, APTA and El Cedro. All three prospects are within the same granted exploration title that is broken into two, non-contiguous pieces (Figure 2).
Drilling is currently being undertaken at the Pepas prospect in the northern extent of the Anzá Project (pre-acquisition) over 10km north of the central base camp at APTA. In parallel, mapping and sampling is being undertaken over the El Cedro porphyry system in the south of the project area.

Orla Mining Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 11, 2025 /CNW/ - Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA) (NYSE: ORLA) ("Orla" or the "Company") today announces the results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. (All amounts expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated) Second Quarter 2025 Summary Record quarterly gold production of 77,811 ounces and total quarterly gold sold of 78,911 ounces (pre-released). Second quarter all-in sustaining cost1 ("AISC") was $1,421 per ounce of gold sold. Year to date AISC was $1,260 per ounce of gold sold. Net income for the second quarter was $48.2 million or $0.15 per share Adjusted earnings1 for the second quarter were $64.2 million or $0.20 per share. Cash flow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital during the second quarter was $102.7 million. Exploration and project expenditure1 was $32.3 million during the quarter, of which $22.9 million was capitalized and $9.4 million was expensed. The Company experienced a pit wall event at Camino Rojo on July 23rd. The mine has started the work on the action plan, including a 50–80 metre pushback of the north wall with a redesigned slope and continuous monitoring. As a result of the operational pause and mining resequencing at Camino Rojo, Orla updated annual consolidated guidance to 265,000 to 285,000 ounces of gold production and AISC of $1,350 to $1,550 per ounces of gold produced. The Company ended the period with $215.4 million in cash and $420.0 million in debt after paying $30.0 million towards its revolving credit facility during the quarter. "The second quarter marked another record production period for Orla, supported by strong contributions from Musselwhite. However, the pit wall event at Camino Rojo on July 23rd was an operational setback. Thanks to proactive geotechnical monitoring systems, no injuries occurred, and no equipment was damaged. While the temporary suspension of in-pit operations poses a short-term challenge for what has otherwise been a consistently strong-performing mine, the benefits of Orla's diversified production base are clear." - Jason Simpson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Orla _____________________________________ 1 Non-GAAP measure.

Refer to the "Non-GAAP Measures" section of this news release.3 Cash cost and AISC on a year-to-date basis for 2025 include the impact of the Musselwhite Mine as of April 1, 2025 onwards. Refer to "Non-GAAP Measures" for further discussion. Second Quarter 2025 Consolidated Summary Gold produced during the quarter totaled 77,811 ounces, with contributions from the Camino Rojo Oxide Mine and the Musselwhite Mine. This period represented the first full quarter of contribution from Musselwhite, resulting in a quarterly record for production for the Company. Gold sold during the quarter totalled 78,911 ounces, also a quarterly record. Consolidated cash costs and AISC totaled $1,065 and $1,421 per ounce of gold sold, respectively. Camino Rojo Operations Summary The Camino Rojo Oxide Gold Mine produced 25,145 ounces of gold in the second quarter of 2025, in-line with plan. During the quarter, Camino Rojo mined nearly 2.0 million tonnes of ore and 2.6 million tonnes of waste, for an implied strip ratio of 1.33. A total of 1.7 million tonnes of ore were stacked at an average grade of 0.71 g/t gold equating to an average daily stacking rate of approximately 18.5 thousand tonnes. In addition, 0.9 million tonnes of low-grade ore were rehandled and placed on the leach pad, at an average grade of 0.32 g/t gold. In total, 2.6 million tonnes of ore at an average grade of 0.57 g/t gold were placed on the heap leach pad during the quarter. Gold sold during the second quarter 2025 totaled 26,591 ounces and sustaining capital during the second quarter of 2025 totaled $0.5 million. On July 23rd, Camino Rojo experienced an uncontrolled material movement on the north wall, resulting in no injuries or equipment damage. Work has started on the action plan, including a 50–80 metre pushback of the north wall with a redesigned slope and continuous monitoring. Approximately 9.0 million tonnes of predominantly oxidized material (strip ratio 1:0.9, average grade 0.74 g/t Au) is planned to be removed and stacked on the heap leach. No material was lost or sterilized; the update to 2025 guidance reflects a deferral of production based on grade and recovery mix. See "2025 Guidance Update" below for details. Musselwhite During the quarter, Musselwhite mined 303,000 tonnes of ore and milled 295,000 tonnes at a mill head grade of 5.52 g/t gold. Gold recovery rates of 96.5% resulted in gold production of 52,666 ounces. Gold sold during the quarter was 52,318 ounces. Lateral development metres in the quarter totalled 2,746 metres. Lateral development is to access mining horizons for existing reserves and to provide additional drill platforms to support the underground exploration drill program to grow reserves, resources, and mineral inventories. Sustaining capex was $18.4 millions, mostly driven by underground development and PQ Deep Extension. Project and Exploration Summary The key project highlight of the quarter was the release of the initial underground Mineral Resource estimate at Camino Rojo on June 5, 2025. The Mineral Resource estimate will support future technical studies, engineering evaluations, and permitting preparations as the project advances. During the quarter, exploration focused on drilling activities at Camino Rojo in Mexico, the South Carlin Complex (including the South Railroad Project) in Nevada, and Musselwhite in Canada. For the second quarter, a total of 23,248 metres were drilled, with 7,575 metres in Mexico, 4,686 metres in Nevada and 10,987 metres at Musslewhite. Project development activities during the period focused on advancing permitting efforts for the South Railroad Project in Nevada and progressing the potential underground development at Camino Rojo. Camino Rojo, Mexico: During the quarter, the Company released an initial underground Mineral Resource estimate for the Camino Rojo deposit, incorporating mineralization hosted in the Camino Rojo Sulphides and extending into the underlying Zone 22. As a reminder Zone 22 represents the vertical and down plunge continuation of the Camino Rojo sulphide mineralization. A supporting technical report was released in July.

Zone 22 accounts for only 7% (0.29 Moz AuEq) of the current underground Indicated Mineral Resource and 19% (0.08 Moz AuEq) of the current underground Inferred Mineral Resource. Drilling is ongoing and 2025 results will inform future updates. Recovery model supported by ongoing metallurgical work and the mineral resource is divided into three spatially distinct zones, each with specific processing options for the Caracol-hosted mineralization: Heap leaching (3%), Flotation by cyanidation (CIL) (25%), Flotation followed by pressure oxidation ("POX") as a pre-treatment prior to cyanidation (CIL with POX) (72%). Initial metallurgical testing indicates that material from Zone 22 is amenable to both cyanide leaching and flotation. Development strategy focuses on advancing the underground resource through: Continued drilling Exploration drift design Flowsheet optimization Metallurgical and engineering studies Permitting activities The Company continued the infill drill campaign at Zone 22, the extension of the Camino Rojo Sulphides. The 15,000-metre drill program was completed in late July 2025. An additional 5,000 metres are planned in 2025 at Zone 22 for infill and expansion along the down-plunge. Results from these drill programs are expected to enhance the Zone 22 resource, which was included in the recently released Camino Rojo Mineral Resource update, as discussed above. A drill campaign to test regional targets started in mid-April, with 1,722 metres drilled in the second quarter. Please see Company's news release dated August 7, 2025, for additional information (Orla Mining Reports New Drill Results from Zone 22 at Camino Rojo, Mexico – High grade intersections outside current resource panels enhances potential). South Railroad Project & South Carlin Complex, Nevada: The South Railroad Project is currently advancing under the guidance of the US Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for permitting. Orla continues to engage with local, state and federal stakeholders to sustain momentum in the permitting process. The Notice of Intent (NOI) is expected to be published in the coming weeks (Q3) with the Company targeting a Record of Decision (final permitting decision) approximately 12 months thereafter. Following this approval, construction on the South Railroad Project would commence, with first gold production targeted for 2028. Orla's 2025 exploration program at the South Carlin Complex is focused on increasing resources at Dark Star, Pinion and satellite deposits, as well as discovering new zones of mineralization. Drilling activities resumed in May at the new Spike target – located south of Pod-Sweet Hollow, as well as at the North Bullion target area. In June, the Dark Star and Bowl drill programs were initiated. Exploration activities are expected to continue through the end of 2025. Musselwhite, Ontario: At Musselwhite, the exploration objective is to define a critical mass of additional reserves and resources to support expansion of the operation and significantly extend the mine life. In the second quarter, underground exploration drilling progressed with three rigs, completing 7,413 metres. The deep directional surface program aimed at confirming the down-plunge extension of the mine trend began in late May with one drill rig. By early June, three rigs were operational, collectively completing 2,757 metres of drilling in the second quarter. The deep directional target zones are expected to be reached in the third quarter. Additionally, the near-mine surface program focused on identifying shallow mineralization as potential open pit mill feed started in June, with 817 metres drilled in the quarter. All exploration drilling programs will continue through the year. 2025 Guidance Update Since the pit wall event on July 23, Camino Rojo has continued to crush and stack stockpiled material at a rate of approximately 20,000 tonnes per day (in addition to 20,000 tonnes per day being truck stacked), to mitigate the short-term impact on production. Based on the current action plan and Camino Rojo's updated pit sequencing, Orla's annual production, cash costs, and AISC guidance has been updated and is shown below.

NON-GAAP MEASURES We have included herein certain performance measures ("non-GAAP measures") which are not specified, defined, or determined under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP measures are common performance measures in the gold mining industry, but because they do not have any mandated standardized definitions, they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Accordingly, we use such measures to provide additional information, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In this section, all currency figures in tables are in thousands, except per-share and per-ounce amounts. AVERAGE REALIZED GOLD PRICE Average realized gold price per ounce sold is calculated by dividing gold sales proceeds received by the Company for the relevant period by the ounces of gold sold.

Our accounting policy is to expense these exploration costs. To assist readers in comparing against those companies which capitalize their exploration costs, we note that included within Orla's net income for each period are exploration costs which were expensed, as follows: Q2 2024 Q2 2024YTD Q2 2024 YTD Q2 2024 Exploration & evaluation expense $ 9,412 $ 6,649$ 18,291 $ 11,393 FREE CASH FLOW Free Cash Flow is calculated as the sum of cash flow from operating activities and cash flow from investing activities, excluding certain unusual transactions.

All-in Sustaining Cost is intended to reflect all the expenditures that are required to produce an ounce of gold from operations. While there is no standardized meaning of the measure across the industry, the Company's definition conforms to the all-in sustaining cost definition as set out by the World Gold Council in its guidance. The Musselwhite Mine was acquired on February 28, 2025, and accounting rules require metal inventory on hand at acquisition date (February 28, 2025) to be valued on the books at fair value rather than historical cost which is ordinarily the case. Accordingly, Orla management concluded it would not be meaningful to readers to present cash costs and AISC for Musselwhite Mine for the one-month period ended March 31, 2025. The tables below exclude the costs of, and gold sales of, Musselwhite Mine for the period March 1 to March 31, 2025.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Readers This news release has been prepared in accordance with Canadian standards for the reporting of mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates, which differ from the previous and current standards of the United States securities laws. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms "mineral reserve", "proven mineral reserve", "probable mineral reserve", "inferred mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources", "measured mineral resources" and "mineral resources" used or referenced in this news release are Canadian mineral disclosure terms as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the "CIM") – CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the "CIM Definition Standards"). For United States reporting purposes, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has adopted amendments to its disclosure rules (the "SEC Modernization Rules") to modernize the mining property disclosure requirements for issuers whose securities are registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The SEC Modernization Rules more closely align the SEC's disclosure requirements and policies for mining properties with current industry and global regulatory practices and standards, including NI 43-101, and replace the historical property disclosure requirements for mining registrants that were included in Industry Guide 7 under the U.S. Securities Act. As a foreign private issuer that is eligible to file reports with the SEC pursuant to the multijurisdictional disclosure system (MJDS), the Company is not required to provide disclosure on its mineral properties under the SEC Modernization Rules and provides disclosure under NI 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards. Accordingly, mineral reserve and mineral resource information contained in this news release may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by United States companies. As a result of the adoption of the SEC Modernization Rules, the SEC now recognizes estimates of "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources." In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of "proven mineral reserves" and "probable mineral reserves" to be "substantially similar" to the corresponding CIM Definition Standards that are required under NI 43-101. While the above terms are "substantially similar" to CIM Definition Standards, there are differences in the definitions under the SEC Modernization Rules and the CIM Definition Standards. There is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that the Company may report as "proven mineral reserves", "probable mineral reserves", "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources" under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the reserve or resource estimates under the standards adopted under the SEC Modernization Rules. Accordingly, information contained in this news release may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

The mineral resource estimate for Camino Rojo has an effective date of March 31, 2025. The Qualified Person responsible for the mineral resource estimate is Marie-Christine Gosselin, Senior Resource Geologist of SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd. Mineral resources are estimated using a long-term price of US$2,300 /oz gold, US$1.25 /lb zinc and US$29 /oz silver and the following smelter terms: for oxide 99.9% payable Au and 98% payable Ag, and for sulphide 95% payable Au, 90% payable Ag and 95% payable Zn. Offsite costs (refining, transport and insurance) of US$145 /wmt transportation and US$230 /dmt treatment; a 2.5% NSR royalty. Metallurgical recoveries vary according to geometallurgical domains from heap leach, CIL, and flotation CIL with POX and are either constant or formula based. Heap leach recoveries range from 40% to 70% for gold and from 11% to 34% for silver. For CIL and CIL with POX, gold and silver recoveries are calculated using grade dependent formulae. The underground CIL mean recovery is 92% for gold and 36% for silver. The underground CIL with POX mean recovery is 85% for gold and 41% for silver. Zinc recovery by flotation is 80%. Mineral Resources are estimated in underground resource panels using NSR cut-off grades of 59.02 US$/t for leach material, 68.73 US$/t for CIL material, and 76.23 US$/t for CIL w/POX material. Underground resource panels have a minimum width of 2m. The NSR for heap leach material is calculated with the following formula: NSR ($/t) = US$71.98 x Au recovery x Au grade + US$0.84 x Ag recovery x Ag grade (g/t). The NSR for CIL material is calculated with the following formula: NSR ($/t) = US$68.34 x Au recovery x Au grade (g/t) + US$0.73 x Ag recovery x Ag grade (g/t). The NSR for CIL w/POX material is calculated with the following formula: NSR ($/t) = US$68.34 x Au recovery x Au grade (g/t) + US$0.73 x Ag recovery x Ag grade (g/T) + US$0.00146 x Zn recovery x Zn grade (ppm). The gold equivalent (AuEq) for heap leach material is calculated with the following formula: Au grade (g/t) + (US$0.84 x Ag recovery x Ag grade (g/t)) /(US$71.98 x Au recovery). The AuEq for CIL material is calculated with the following formula: Au grade (g/t) + (US$0.73 x Ag recovery x Ag grade (g/t)) / (US$68.34 x Au recovery). The AuEq for CIL w/POX material is calculated with the following formula: Au grade (g/t) + (US$0.73 x Ag recovery x Ag grade (g/t)) / (US$68.34 x Au recovery) + (US$0.00146 x Zn recovery x Zn grade (ppm)) / (US$68.34 x Au recovery). Numbers may not add due to rounding. The Mineral Resource estimate includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The following factors, among others, could affect the mineral resource estimate: commodity price and exchange rate assumptions, pit slope angles, assumptions used in generating the resource pit shell and underground resource panels, including metal recoveries, and mining and process cost assumptions.

Mill recoveries of 95.6% and 81% for gold and silver, respectively. Heap leach recoveries of 73% and 25% for gold and silver, respectively. Pit slopes by area ranging from 42-47 degrees overall slope angle. 5% ore loss and 5% dilution factor applied to the 5 x 5 x 5m open pit resource block models. Mining costs of $2.00 per tonne of waste mined and $2.50 per tonne of ore mined. Milling costs of $16.81 per tonne processed. Heap Leach costs of $5.53 per tonne processed. G&A cost of $2.00 per tonne of material processed. 3% royalty costs and 1% selling costs were also applied. A 0.17 g/t gold only cutoff was applied to ex-pit processed material (which is above the heap-leaching NSR cutoff). Underground Resource estimates are based on economically constrained stopes generated using Datamine's Mineable Shape Optimizer (MSO) algorithm and the following optimization parameters (all dollar values are in US dollars): $1,950/ounce gold price and $25.24/ounce silver price. Mill recoveries of 95.6% and 81% for gold and silver, respectively. Mechanized cut and fill mining with a $60.00 per tonne cost. Diluted to a minimum 4m stope width with a 98% mining recovery. G&A cost of $4.00 per tonne of material processed. Milling costs of $16.81 per tonne processed. 3% royalty costs and 1% selling costs were also applied. Where mentioned, 'residual open pits' assumes that any underground stopes are backfilled with zero grade material at two-thirds of the original rock density. Economic-constrained open pits are then estimated with this mined-out, backfilled material in the open pit block selective mining unit ('SMU') model and assuming the resource parameters above. Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves (as that term is defined in the CIM Definition Standards) and do not have demonstrated economic viability. Refer to the Additional Notes section for further information. Drilling and geological interpretation suggests that the three known main deposit areas (Guadalupe, Central and Z-T) are larger than previously reported. Potential also exists for new discoveries where mineralized trends have been identified outside of the currently defined resource areas. Historic operating results indicate that an estimated 1 million ounces of gold and 60 million ounces of silver were recovered from five separate operations at Los Reyes between 1770 and 1990. Prior to Prime's acquisition, recent operators of Los Reyes had spent approximately US$20 million on exploration, engineering, and prefeasibility studies. QA/QC Protocols and Sampling Procedures Drill core at the Los Reyes project is drilled in predominantly HQ size (63.5 millimetres 'mm'), reducing to NQ (47.6 mm) when required. Drill core samples are generally 1.50 m long along the core axis with allowance for shorter or longer intervals if required to suit geological constraints. After logging intervals are identified to be sampled, the core is cut and one half is submitted for assay. Sample QA/QC measures include unmarked certified reference materials, blanks, and field duplicates as well as preparation duplicates are inserted into the sample sequence and make up approximately 8% of the samples submitted to the laboratory for each drill hole. Samples are picked up from the Project by the laboratory personnel and transported to their facilities in Durango or Hermosillo, Mexico, for sample preparation. Sample analysis is carried out by Bureau Veritas and ALS Labs, with fire assay, including over limits fire assay re-analysis, completed at their respective Hermosillo, Mexico laboratories and multi-element analysis completed in Vancouver, Canada. Drill core sample preparation includes fine crushing of the sample to at least 70% passing less than 2 mm, sample splitting using a riffle splitter, and pulverizing a 250 gram split to at least 85% passing 75 microns. Gold in diamond drill core is analyzed by fire assay and atomic absorption spectroscopy of a 30 g sample (code FA430 or Au-AA23). Multi-element chemistry is analyzed by 4-Acid digestion of a 0.25-gram sample split (code MA300 or ME-ICP61) with detection by an inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer for a full suite of elements. Gold assay techniques FA430 and Au-AA23 have an upper detection limit of 10 g/t. Any sample that produces an over-limit gold value via the initial assay technique is sent for gravimetric finish via method FA-530 or Au-GRA21. Silver analyses by MA300 and ME-ICP61 have an upper limit of 200 g/t and 100 g/t, respectively. Samples with over-limit silver values are re-analyzed by fire assay with gravimetric finish FA530 or Au-GRA21. Both Bureau Veritas and ALS Labs are ISO/IEC accredited assay laboratories. Additional Notes Prime's MRE as of October 15, 2024 is classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum ('CIM') 'CIM Definition Standards - For Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves' adopted by the CIM Council (as amended, the 'CIM Definition Standards') and in accordance with the requirements of NI 43-101. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. Metres is represented by 'm'; 'etw' is Estimated True Width and is based on drill hole geometry or comparisons with other on-section drill holes; 'Au' refers to gold, and 'Ag' refers to silver; 'g/t' is grams per metric tonne; some figures may not sum due to rounding; Composite assay grades presented in summary tables are calculated using a Au grade minimum average of 0.20 g/t or 1.0 g/t as indicated in 'Au Cut-off' column of Summary Tables. Maximum internal waste included in any reported composite interval is 3.00 m. The 1.00 g/t Au cut-off is used to define higher-grade 'cores' within the lower-grade halo. Additional details are available in the associated Technical Report with effective date of October 15, 2024, filed on November 27, 2024 with amended filing on June 27, 2025.

Mineros S.A. Acquires 80% of La Pepa from Pan American to Own 100%
$40 million for 80% of the La Pepa Project that Mineros does not already own Estimated Mineral Resources at the La Pepa Project, effective October 31, 2021: Measured Mineral Resources: 58,816 thousand tonnes (kt) averaging 0.61 g/t Au, containing 1,150 thousand ounces (koz) Au. Indicated Mineral Resources: 65,405 kt averaging 0.49 g/t, containing 1,039 koz Au. Inferred Mineral Resources: 25,024 kt averaging 0.46 g/t, containing 366 koz Au. All dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars. MEDELLIN, Colombia, August 12, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mineros S.A. (TSX:MSA, MINEROS:CB) ("Mineros" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it will acquire from Pan American Silver Corp. ("Pan American") an 80% interest in the La Pepa Project for $40 million (the "La Pepa Project Purchase"), bringing its interest in the La Pepa Project to 100%. The La Pepa Project Purchase is structured as a transaction between subsidiaries of Mineros and Pan American for the purchase and sale of all shares of Minera Cavancha SpA not currently owned by Mineros. Minera Cavancha SpA currently holds the La Pepa Project pursuant to a joint venture between Mineros and Pan American. In connection with the La Pepa Project Purchase, that joint venture will be terminated. The La Pepa Project Purchase is expected to close on or before September 30, 2025. "We are pleased to add the balance of the La Pepa Project not already owned by us to our portfolio of organic growth projects," stated David Londoño, President and CEO of Mineros. "While we remain focused on acquiring producing gold assets or late-stage development assets, we are expanding our strategy to include acquiring earlier-stage projects to enable Mineros to develop a pipeline of growth projects as we mature as a mid-tier gold producer. Additionally, the acquisition of La Pepa Project exposes us to Chile, an additional jurisdiction with a long and well-established mining history." La Pepa Project, Chile The La Pepa Project is an advanced gold exploration project located in the Maricunga Gold Belt of the Atacama Region, Chile, approximately 800 km north of Santiago and 110 km east of Copiapó, at 4,200 metres above sea level in the Andes Mountains. It is 100% owned by Minera Cavancha SpA, a joint venture entity that is owned 20% by Mineros and 80% by Pan American. The La Pepa Project represents a significant exploration-stage opportunity for Mineros in Chile, with promising mineralization and plans for further development. Key details about the project include: Exploration and Development: The project targets a porphyry-style gold system with two types of auriferous mineralization: gold disseminated in stockwork and high-sulphidation epithermal replacement veins. Envisioned as an open-pit mining and heap-leaching operation. Drilling and Results: A 6,342-metre drilling program (2019-2020) confirmed lateral continuity and potential expansion at depth. For further information, see Mineros' annual information form for the year ended December 31, 2021, dated March 31, 2022. Future Plans: Mineros plans to use the Mineral Resource estimate effective October 31, 2021 as the basis for a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) to evaluate feasibility as a heap-leaching operation.

(GeoEstima), inside an optimized pit envelope with cut-off grades of 0.20 g/t Au for oxides and 0.26 g/t Au for sulphides, which corresponds to the marginal cut-off grade, assuming a long-term gold price of $1,650 per ounce. All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate, and numbers may not add up due to rounding. The qualified person is not aware of any environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing, political, or other relevant factors that could materially affect the potential development of the Mineral Resources.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATES In accordance with applicable Canadian securities regulatory requirements, all Mineral Resource estimates disclosed in this news release have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and are classified in accordance with the 2014 CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (the "CIM Standards"). Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. Pursuant to the CIM Standards, Mineral Resources have a higher degree of uncertainty than Mineral Reserves as to their existence as well as their economic and legal feasibility. Inferred Mineral Resources, when compared with Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources, have the least certainty as to their existence, and it cannot be assumed that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will be upgraded to an Indicated or Measured Mineral Resource as a result of continued exploration. Pursuant to NI 43-101, Inferred Mineral Resources may not form the basis of any economic analysis, including any feasibility study. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of a Mineral Resource exists, will ever be converted into a Mineral Reserve, or is or will ever be economically or legally mineable or recovered.
