First Majestic Announces Second Gold-Silver Discovery Within a Year at Santa Elena and Expands High-Grade Mineralization at Navidad

Santo Niño: A New Gold-Silver Discovery Confirmed 900 Metres South of the Santa Elena Plant. Navidad: Drilling Expands the Mineral Deposit Footprint and Returns Higher-Grade Gold and Silver. Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 28, 2025) - First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE: AG) (TSX: AG) (FSE: FMV) (the 'Company' or 'First Majestic') is pleased to report a second significant discovery of vein-hosted gold and silver mineralization within a year at the Santa Elena property in Sonora, Mexico, and to share additional positive drilling results from the Navidad discovery. The near surface, newly identified Santo Niño vein, located approximately one kilometre south of the Santa Elena mine, marks a significant addition to the district. Resource addition and resource conversion drilling at the Navidad Discovery - completed after maiden Inferred Resource estimate declaration (see news release dated March 31, 2025 ) - substantially increased the size of the mineralized area and several holes returned higher than average grades for the deposit. With the additions of Navidad and Santo Niño, the Santa Elena property now hosts four significant gold-silver deposits: Santa Elena, Ermitaño, Navidad, and Santo Niño, underscoring the growing scale and potential of the district. 'The past twelve months of our exploration activities at Santa Elena have been outstanding,' stated Keith Neumeyer, President & CEO of First Majestic. 'The Santo Niño discovery marks yet another exciting milestone for the district, and the drilling shows the vein remains open for expansion in most directions. At the same time, step-out drilling at the Navidad Discovery continues to intercept exceptionally high-grade mineralization and expand the resource envelope. Together with the producing Santa Elena and Ermitaño mines, these new deposits confirm Santa Elena as a truly prolific district with tremendous untapped potential. We believe Santo Niño and Navidad will meaningfully extend the mine life and will unlock additional value to the portfolio.' EXPLORATION HIGHLIGHTS FOR SANTO NIÑO AND NAVIDAD Exploration drilling approximately 900 metres ('m') south of the Santa Elena processing plant has discovered the Santo Niño vein - a large, epithermal quartz-adularia vein hosting gold ('Au') and silver ('Ag') within a newly identified fault zone. Exploration drilling to date has traced the vein over one kilometre ('km') of strike and 400 m down-dip, with thirteen intercepts to date returning significant gold and silver grades. Confirmed mineralization spans more than 600 m along strike and approximately 200 m down dip, and the upside potential is open in multiple directions. Geological characteristics closely mirror those of the Ermitaño deposit, situated approximately 2.2 km to the east-southeast along strike, underscoring the district-scale potential at Santa Elena. Drilling of the Navidad/Winter vein system, following the maiden Inferred Mineral Resource estimate effective December 31, 2024, expanded the footprint of precious metal mineralization while returning gold and silver grades substantially higher than were reported in the maiden Resource estimate. Drillhole EWUG-25-050 targeted the Winter vein more than 100 m east of prior drilling and intersected some of the highest-grade mineralization ever encountered on the Santa Elena Property: 6.8 m grading 14.8 g/t Au and 642 g/t Ag for an AgEq grade of 1,898 g/t. This interval includes 1.2 m at 29.5 g/t Au and 919 g/t Ag for 3,427 g/t AgEq; and 2.5m at 21.2 g/t Au and 1,093 g/t Ag for 2,897 g/t AgEq. Five additional significant intersections were cut further downhole including that of the Navidad vein. Resource conversion drilling confirms the continuity of precious metal mineralization and, in general, returned significantly higher gold and silver grades than estimated from prior drilling.

Please visit the source.] District-Scale Exploration Strategy Building on the exploration model unveiled in February 2025, our exploration team delivered a second gold and silver discovery in less than 12 months - the Santo Niño vein. By drilling beneath the masking andesitic cover into the prospective rhyolite horizon, geologists intercepted the Santo Niño vein and delineated zones of high-grade mineralization. Large portions of the Santa Elena concession, where this rhyolite is concealed, have not yet been explored, underscoring the district's untapped potential. Figure 1 shows the locations of the two new discoveries within the broader Santa Elena property. [ This image cannot be displayed.

To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Santo Niño Target The Santo Niño discovery sits approximately 900 m south of the Santa Elena processing plant and 2.2 km west-northwest of the Ermitaño deposit. Twenty-three diamond drill core holes have been completed to date with thirteen returning significant vein-hosted gold and silver mineralization (Figures 2 and 3). Eleven of those intercepts define a continuous, higher-grade zone in the vein's western upper levels. Santo Niño is a low-sulphidation, epithermal quartz-adularia vein within the Santo Niño fault zone (Figure 4). Drilling shows the structure strikes north-northwest and dips moderately to the northeast. The vein has now been traced for more than 1 km along strike and 400 m down-dip. Within that envelope, a mineralized core measuring ~600 m along strike by ~220 m down-dip has been identified to date. The average thickness of the mineralized zone is ~4.5 m and ranges from 1 m to 12.3 m. The mineralized area outlined by drilling is located in the western portion of the drill pattern projecting towards surface and the westernmost drill holes have returned some of the highest gold and silver grades. Mineralization remains open to the west and up-dip, while step-out holes on the east side have also intersected additional significant Au-Ag values that are open both eastward and at depth. The full extent of the Santo Niño vein is yet to be defined, and substantial follow-up drilling is planned for 2025 to test its lateral and vertical potential. [ This image cannot be displayed.

Step-out and in-fill holes have now traced the combined structure for 1.3 km along strike and 450 m down-dip, confirming both the lateral continuity and the vertical reach of high-grade mineralization. The most significant growth has occurred on the eastern flank of the deposit. Since the resource cut-off date, drilling to the east has expanded the Winter vein by 175 m, and the Navidad vein by 325 m, with each step-out hole returning robust precious-metal values (Figure 5). Three holes highlight the potential for deposit grade increase, and core photos from these holes are shown in Figures 6 and 7: Structural interpretation indicates that the principal mineral shoots in both veins plunge gently - about 20° toward the east-northeast - and remain open up and down plunge (Figures 8 and 9). In combination with the emerging Santo Niño discovery, the Navidad/Winter results reinforce Santa Elena's status as a district-scale, multi-deposit system with significant upside. An aggressive drill program, with nine active rigs currently, is in progress for the remainder of 2025, drilling aims to test the full strike length and depth potential of the new discoveries and to explore for additional mineral deposits.

Orogen Royalties Announces the Expansion of the Navidad Gold-Silver Target at Ermitaño

VANCOUVER, BC / / February 5, 2025 / (TSXV:OGN)(OTCQX:OGNRF) Orogen Royalties Inc. ("Orogen" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the expansion of the Navidad gold-silver target ("Navidad"), located within the Ermitaño Mine concessions in Sonora, Mexico where the Company holds a cash-flowing 2% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty. Highlights During the second half of 2024, drilling by mine operator First Majestic Silver Corp. ("First Majestic"), has significantly expanded the zones of gold and silver mineralization at the Navidad and Winter veins ("Navidad")1 The Navidad and Winter veins are located 100 metres southwest and 350 metres below the Ermitaño Mine complex Gold and silver mineralization identified to date at Navidad extends over 1,000 metres along strike and 300 metres down dip, with a true thickness averaging between 2.8 metres and 4.4 metres Highlight drill holes for the second half of 2024 (reported as true-width intercepts) include1: EW-24-372-A grading 13.06 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold and 205 g/t silver over 3.24 metres (Navidad vein) EW-24-372-A grading 8.60 g/t gold and 77 g/t silver over 4.83 metres (Winter vein) EW-24-373 grading 5.64 g/t gold and 104 g/t silver over 6.06 metres (Winter vein) EW-24-377 grading 7.09 g/t gold Au and 125 g/t Ag over 3.30 metres (Winter vein) EW-24-379 grading 7.09 g/t gold and 38 g/t silver over 2.32 metres (Navidad vein) EW-24-382 grading 13.93 g/t gold and 99 g/t silver over 2.66 metres (Winter vein) First Majestic is planning to complete an initial inferred mineral resource estimate for Navidad in late March 2025 Metallurgical testing of mineralization from the Navidad and Winter veins, under current processing parameters at the Santa Elena processing and mill facilities, returned gold and silver recoveries exceeding 90% and 85%, respectively Five drill rigs are currently assigned to the Navidad vein system Paddy Nicol, Orogen's CEO, commented, "Since the discovery of Navidad in July 2024, multiple drill rigs have been busy exploring the vein system and it is exciting to see continued success. Not only did drilling in the second half of 2024 expand Navidad, the zone of high-grade gold and silver mineralisation is also substantially closer to the underground workings at the Ermitaño mine complex. Navidad's proximity to Ermitaño will allow for easier access for future exploration and for possible production. We look forward to First Majestic's initial inferred resource at Navidad in the next few months." About the Ermitaño and Navidad VeinsThe 167 square-kilometre Ermitaño mining concession, where Orogen holds a 2% NSR royalty, is located in Sonora, Mexico approximately 150 kilometres northeast of Hermosillo. Ermitaño is contiguous with the Santa Elena mining claims both owned and operated by First Majestic. (Figure 1). The Ermitaño vein was discovered in 2016 and developed into a producing underground mine at the end of 2021. Current reserves and resources are as follow: Ermitaño Reserves and Resources at Dec 31, 20232 Reserve Tonnage (k) Ag (g/t) Au (g/t) Ag Koz Au Koz Proven (UG- Erm) 590 78 3.87 1,473 73 Probable (UG-Erm) 2,086 65 2.87 4,367 193 Total Reserves 2,676 67.87 3.09 5,840 266 Resource (inclusive of reserve) Measured 612 81 4.38 1,600 86 Indicated 2,306 71 3.45 5,260 256 Total M&I 2,918 73.1 3.65 6,860 342 Total Inferred 2,049 65 2.34 4,280 154 Exploration drilling by First Majestic in 2021 identified the fault-offset Luna zone to the east of the Ermitaño mine which has been integrated into the 2023 Inferred resource. Luna remains open to the east3. The Navidad vein hosted gold-silver mineral system is a new discovery to the west of the Ermitaño mine announced in July 20244. The discovery is based on a refined understanding of regional stratigraphy and the key controls on Ermitaño style mineral deposits. The new discovery is entirely within Orogen's royalty AOI (Figure 1). The February 2025 update1 is based on 20,809 metres of new drilling in 17-holes at the Navidad target that has expanded the footprint of gold and silver mineralization and defined two epithermal quartz veins: the Navidad and Winter Veins. The Navidad system is now defined to 100 metres southwest and 350 metres below the Ermitaño underground mine levels (Figure 2), significantly closer than First Majestic had previously stated4. The Navidad and Winter veins consist of grey to pink banded quartz and surrounding stockworks containing visible silver sulphides and native gold. The Winter vein occurs approximately 180 metres structurally above and sub-parallel to the underlying Navidad vein. Mineralization intersected within the Winter vein currently extends 600 metres by 350 metres along strike and dip, and the mineralization ranges from 0.65 metres to 6.6 metres in thickness. Mineralization intersected to date within the Navidad vein extends 1,000 metres by 300 metres along strike and dip and the mineralisation ranges from 0.5 metres to 5.0 metres in thickness1. Mineralisation in both veins remains open in multiple directions with five drill rigs currently active at Navidad. An initial inferred mineral resource for the Navidad and Winter veins is anticipated to be released by First Majestic in late March 20251.
