The Company has transitioned to exploration drilling targeting the high-potential vein systems north of the main El

Tigre area. This priority zone aligns directly with the El Tigre North Mine Design outlined in Section 24 of the Company’s recently filed Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA dated January 22, 2026).
