Collective Mining Drills 442.35 Metres at 2.16 g/t Gold Equivalent Commencing from Surface at Apollo
High-grade gold, copper, silver and tungsten assay results have been received for a further five holes from its ongoing drilling program designed to outline and expand the near surface zone of mineralization at the Apollo system with highlighted results as follows: 442.35 metres @ 2.16 g/t gold equivalent (1.18 g/t gold, 43 g/t silver, 0.21% copper and 0.05% WO 3) from surface (APC-125) including 68.05 metres @ 4.55 g/t gold equivalent. The hole bottomed while still in strong mineralization. 325.10 metres @ 2.03 g/t gold equivalent (0.98 g/t gold, 27 g/t silver, 0.47% copper, and 0.03% WO 3) from 8 metres below surface (APC-126) TORONTO, July 21, 2025 /CNW/ - Collective Mining Ltd. (NYSE: CNL) (TSX: CNL) ("Collective" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results for five diamond drill holes designed to better outline and expand the shallow portion of gold-silver-copper-tungsten mineralization at the Apollo system ("Apollo"). Apollo, which begins at surface, is strongly mineralized over 1,200 vertical metres, is open at depth and is the most advanced discovery made to date within the Company's multi-target, Guayabales Project in Caldas, Colombia. The Company currently has ten drill rigs operating as part of its fully funded 70,000 metre drill program for 2025 with eight rigs operating at the Guayabales Project and two rigs turning at the San Antonio Project. Drilling at the Guayabales Project is focused on multiple objectives which include defining the shallow mineralization, expanding and identifying new high-grade sub-zones, expanding the high-grade Ramp Zone at depth and testing a series of Apollo look-alike gravity targets which were recently announced (see press release dated June 30, 2025). The first of two deep capacity drill rigs is now operating at site and is extending a previous step-out hole which failed to reach its intended depth when targeting the Ramp Zone. Once completed, this rig will begin drilling a new mother hole for a planned series of directional intercepts into the Ramp Zone. A second deep capacity rig, also designed to expand upon the high-grade Ramp Zone discovery, is expected to arrive at site in Q3, 2025. Approximately 131,500 metres of diamond drilling has been completed to date at the Guayabales Project, including 92,000 metres at Apollo. There are currently thirty-one drill holes in the lab with assay results for most of these holes expected in the near term. Ari Sussman, Executive Chairman commented: "Shallow drilling at Apollo continues to exceed expectations as we are expanding the near surface envelope of mineralization and improving upon both the grade and confidence in the model." "Deep drilling that is targeting the Ramp Zone is now underway with the arrival of our first large capacity rig to site. The deep capacity rig is almost finished extending a previous drilled hole which did not reach its intended depth due to the original rigs capacity. Visual inspection of this hole indicates that Ramp Zone style mineralization is being encountered and if assay results are favorable, the hole would extend the Ramp Zone by approximately 250 meters to the east of all prior drilling. Additionally, we are currently drill testing the ME, Knife and X gravity targets and soon plan to begin drilling at the Apollo South gravity target in hopes of making another major discovery before the end of 2025." Details (see Table 1 and Figures 1-3) Five drill holes drilled from Pad 22, Pad 23 and Pad 25 intersected high-grade gold, silver, copper and tungsten mineralization from at or near surface with results as follows: 442.35 metres @ 2.16 g/t gold equivalent from surface (APC-125) and bottoming in high-grade mineralization including: 68.05 metres @ 4.55 g/t gold equivalent from 3.10 metres 61.40 metres @ 3.46 g/t gold equivalent from 279.30 metres The intercept in hole APC-125 extended the mineralization to surface and improved the grade in this location within the Company's internal block model. 325.10 metres @ 2.03 g/t gold equivalent from 8.0 metres downhole (APC-126) including: 40.55 metres @ 3.21 g/t gold equivalent from 15.50 metres 72.15 metres @ 3.15 g/t gold equivalent from 99.65 metres 99.75 metres @ 2.09 g/t gold equivalent from 20.95 metres downhole including 22.45 metres @ 5.17 g/t gold equivalent (APC-124 drilled to the north from Pad 23). 95.85 metres @ 2.66 g/t gold equivalent from 30.80 metres downhole including 29.15 metres @ 3.99 g/t gold equivalent (APC-129 drilled to the northeast from Pad 25). 221.10 metres @ 1.33 g/t gold equivalent from 7.55 metres downhole including 20.25 metres @ 2.95 g/t gold equivalent from 31.90 metres downhole (APC-131 drilled to the north from Pad 25). Seventy percent of the drill program targeting the shallowest portion of Apollo has now been completed, with assays still pending for five holes and additional holes being drilled. To date, drill intercepts from the shallow program have expanded the volume of the shallow mineralized area by approximately 5 percent. Once the shallow drilling program has been completed, the average drill hole spacing will be 35 metres from surface to a vertical depth of 150 metres. Table 1: Assays Results for Drill Holes APC-124, APC-125, APC-126, APC-129 and APC-131 AuEq (g/t) is calculated as follows: (Au (g/t) x 0.97) + (Ag (g/t) x 0.015 x 0.85) + (Cu (%) x 1.44 x 0.95) + (WO 3 (%) x 4.84 x 0.72) utilizing metal prices of Au – US$2,200/oz, Ag – US$33/oz, Cu – US$4.62/lb and WO 3 – US$15.51/lb and recovery rates of 97% for Au, 85% for Ag, 95% for Cu and 72% for WO 3. Recovery rate assumptions for metals are based on metallurgical results announced on October 17, 2023, April 11, 2024, and October 3, 2024.

The original high-grade gold-rich sub-zone ("HZ1") first announced by the Company on December 16, 2024, has been extended 50 metres to the west by hole APC107-D2, which cut: 67.50 metres @ 5.38 g/t AuEq within 377.85 metres @ 2.13 g/t gold equivalent. HZ1 now has dimensions of 230 metres of strike, 70 metres in thickness and over 180 metres vertical and includes previously announced intercepts of 150.55 metres @ 6.16 g/t AuEq (APC104-D1) and 106.35 metres @ 9.05 g/t AuEq (APC104-D5) (see press releases dated December 16, 2024, and February 24, 2025). HZ1 remains open in most directions. A potential third high-grade sub-zone, which requires follow-up confirmation drilling, has been intersected northwest of HZ2 in drill hole APC107-D3 as follows: 123.75 metres @ 3.03 g/t AuEq (1.24 g/t Au, 91 g/t Ag and 0.43% Cu). The Company continues to target up to 11 potential high-grade sub-zones throughout the top 1,000 metres of the Apollo system with a goal of further improving the overall grade (and total mineral inventory). TORONTO, June 24, 2025 /CNW/ - Collective Mining Ltd. (NYSE: CNL) (TSX: CNL) ("Collective" or the "Company") is pleased to announce further assay results for five directional diamond drill holes from its ongoing drilling program designed to discover and outline high-grade sub-zones within the bulk tonnage Au-Ag-Cu-W Apollo system ("Apollo"). Apollo is the most advanced discovery made to date within the Company's multi-target, Guayabales Project in Caldas, Colombia. The Company currently has nine drill rigs operating as part of its fully funded 70,000 metre drill program for 2025 with seven rigs operating at the Guayabales Project and two rigs turning at the San Antonio Project. Two additional deep capacity rigs are being mobilized to the Guayabales Project to resume testing the high-grade Ramp Zone located at the bottom of the Apollo system in Q3, 2025. The 2025 objectives for the portion of the drilling program targeting the Apollo system are: Drill test newly modeled high-grade sub-zone targets scattered throughout the top 1,000 vertical metres from surface to improve the grade profile (and size) of the system. Grow the overall dimensions of the system by expanding vertically and laterally the recently discovered high-grade Ramp Zone and northern extension. Expand and define the area of outcropping/shallow mineralization and test many drilling gaps within the internal block model from surface to a depth of 150 metres. Approximately 125,500 metres of diamond drilling has been completed to date at the Guayabales Project, including 87,000 metres at Apollo. There are currently twenty-five drill holes in the lab with assay results for most of these holes expected in the near term. Ari Sussman, Executive Chairman commented: "Apollo continues to deliver in terms of size and grade. The discovery of HZ2 is pleasing as this zone is surprisingly rich in copper and silver over bulk tonnage drilled widths. If we continue to discovery new sub-zones of higher-grade mineralization within Apollo, the overall grade of the system will increase and will give us excellent mining flexibility to incorporate into future mine scenarios. The next few months are going to be exciting as we are on the cusp of accelerating our largest greenfield drilling program in the Company's history at the Guayabales and San Antonio projects. Up to four rigs will be drilling grassroot targets at Guayabales hunting for another Apollo system and up to an additional three rigs will be turning at San Antonio in search of a large bulk tonnage porphyry system. We believe there is another major discovery to be made between the two projects and our team is ready to deliver on this challenge."

Details (see Table 1 and Figures 1-4) A series of five directional drill holes, from new mother hole APC-107D (Pad17), continue to discover and outline high-grade sub-zones at shallow elevations in Apollo. New High-Grade Sub-Zone Discovery 2 ("HZ2") Holes APC107-D4 and APC107-D5 were drilled at the southern margin of the Apollo system and discovered a new high-grade sub-zone rich in copper and silver ("HZ2"). The following intercepts are highlighted for new high-grade sub-zone HZ2: APC107-D4 intercepted 159.05 metres @ 3.01 g/t gold equivalent (1.19 g/t gold, 98 g/t silver and 0.43% copper) from 48.50 metres including: 59.25 metres @ 5.01 g/t gold equivalent (1.63 g/t gold, 196 g/t silver and 0.68% copper) from 91.85 metres APC107-D5 intersected 114.40 metres @ 4.14 g/t gold equivalent (1.06 g/t gold, 150 g/t silver and 0.64% copper) from 172.95 metres including: 57.25 metres @ 5.64 g/t gold equivalent (1.22 g/t gold, 221 g/t silver and 0.89% copper) from 210.10 metres HZ2 is open to the northeast and vertically with further follow up drilling planned. High-Grade Sub-Zone 1 ("HZ1") Drill hole APC107-D2 has also extended the first discovered and primarily gold rich, high-grade sub-zone HZ1 by 50 metres to the west by intercepting: 67.50 metres @ 5.38 g/t gold equivalent within 377.85 metres @ 2.13 g/t gold equivalent (1.40 g/t gold, 37 g/t silver and 0.21% copper) HZ1 now has dimensions of 230 metres of strike, 70 metres in thickness and over 180 metres vertical and includes previously announced intercepts of 150.55 metres @ 6.16 g/t AuEq in APC104-D1 and 106.35 metres @ 9.05 g/t AuEq in APC104-D5 (press releases dated December 16, 2024, and February 24, 2025) Drillhole APC107-D3 was drilled westward and intersected a potential third, high-grade sub-zone, to the west of HZ2 by intercepting: 123.75 metres @ 3.03 g/t gold equivalent from 156.45 metres including: 20.20 metres @ 5.15 g/t gold equivalent from 181.00 metres and 18.55 metres @ 3.87 g/t gold equivalent from 236.50 metres 49.30 metres @ 2.23 g/t gold equivalent from 336.65 metres Follow up drilling is required to see if this potential new high-grade subzone extends to the north and vertically where it is open for expansion. Hole APC107-D1 was an infill hole into a gap in the block model and successfully intersected mineralization at a similar grade profile to the internal block model as follows: 353.50 metres @ 1.94 g/t gold equivalent from 61.60 metres including: 27.60 metres @ 3.01 g/t gold equivalent from 61.60 metres and 30.05 metres @ 2.98 g/t gold equivalent from 217.95 metres and 32.75 metres @ 2.20 g/t gold equivalent from 361.45 metres A significant backlog of drill holes are in the lab with results expected to be released consistently for the remainder of the year. Table 1: Assays Results for Drill Holes APC107-D1, APC107-D2, APC107-D3, APC107-D4 and APC107-D5 *AuEq (g/t) is calculated as follows: (Au (g/t) x 0.97) + (Ag (g/t) x 0.015 x 0.85) + (Cu (%) x 1.44 x 0.95) + (WO 3 (%) x 4.84 x 0.72) utilizing metal prices of Au – US$2,200/oz, Ag – US$33/oz, Cu – US$4.62/lb and WO 3 – US$15.51/lb and recovery rates of 97% for Au, 85% for Ag, 95% for Cu and 72% for WO 3. Recovery rate assumptions for metals are based on metallurgical results announced on October 17, 2023, April 11, 2024, and October 3, 2024. True widths are unknown, and grades are uncut.

Collective Mining Earns 100% in the Guayabales Mining License by Accelerating the Terms of the Agreement
TORONTO, June 23, 2025 /CNW/ - Collective Mining Ltd. (NYSE: CNL) (TSX: CNL) ("Collective" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has accelerated its agreement with the vendor of the Guayabales mining license and as a result will affect the transfer of 100% of the mining license into its name. The Guayabales license, which host the Company's flagship Apollo system, is one of three major contiguous licenses that make up the Company's Guayabales Project, located in Caldas, Colombia. The original agreement for the Guayabales mining license was signed between the Company and the vendor in June 2020 and entitled the Company to earn a 100% ownership in the exploitation phase mining license in 2032 by making a series of scheduled payments and committing to certain exploration expenditures. Under the amendment, the total financial consideration owed to the vendor remains the same as the original agreement, however, the payment schedule has been accelerated as follows: $2 million payable immediately. An additional $2 million is payable within one month provided the title transfer request to the Colombian National Mining Agency ("ANM") has been filed. An additional $2.3 million is payable within two months following the submission of the title transfer request. The remaining $3.5 million will be payable in six equal installments over the following three years from the date of the execution of the amendment to the agreement. The title transfer approval is expected within 60 days following the request being made to the ANM. Ari Sussman, Chairman of the Board commented: "Accelerating the agreement and earning 100% of the mining title today made a lot of sense for the Company given our strong treasury of approximately $78 million at the end of Q1, 2025, and our confidence that Apollo will evolve into a future mine. Given the fact that this mining license is in its exploitation phase, the Company intends to leverage the license to its advantage in its future permitting efforts. We would like to thank the vendor for their support in this matter, and we look forward to our continued collaboration as we advance the project." About Collective Mining Ltd.
