Denarius Metals Corp. (Cboe CA: DMET) (OTCQX: DNRSF) announced today that it has completed an updated Mineral Resource estimate for its 100%-owned Zancudo Project in Colombia, prepared by Resource Development Associates Inc. in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining Metallurgy and Petroleum Definition Standards incorporated by reference in National Instrument 43-101, with an effective date of October 31, 2025.

Highlights of the Updated Mineral Resource Estimate

• The conversion of 979,000 tonnes to Indicated Resources grading 6.9 g/t gold and 84 g/t silver totaling 217,000 ounces of gold and 2.7 million ounces of silver, reflecting the positive impact of the 2024 in-fill drilling campaign, which was designed with tighter spacing at 50×50 m drill centers to de-risk the near-term underground production at the Zancudo Project.
• A 13% increase in tonnage resulted in total Inferred Resources of 4.6 million tonnes grading 5.6 g/t gold and 84 g/t silver totaling 832,000 ounces of gold and 12.5 million ounces of silver.
• Mineralization at the Zancudo Project occurs in stacked mantos and steeply dipping veins that have been exploited over a strike length of 2,500 m. The average vein width is 0.35 m with a maximum width of 3.0 m. The known vertical extent of mineralization is 400 m.
• The database for the updated MRE includes a total of 47,329 m of diamond drilling in 194 holes, including 7,225 m in 45 holes completed in the Company’s 2024 drilling campaign.
• The Zancudo deposit remains open for further expansion in all directions.

Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman of Denarius Metals, commented, “Following our successful in-fill drilling campaign at our Zancudo Project in 2024, and in light of the more robust metals price environment, we are currently in the process of preparing an updated preliminary economic assessment for our Zancudo Project. We are pleased to announce that, as part of the PEA process, we have completed a detailed review of the geological model for the Zancudo Project, incorporating the expected positive impact of our 2024 in-fill drilling campaign and updated metal prices. This has resulted in a significant increase in the tonnage in our updated MRE and has converted approximately 23% of the gold-equivalent resources from the Inferred to the Indicated category”.

The Zancudo Project is now fully permitted to begin producing concentrates next year and construction of our new 1,000 tonnes per day flotation processing plant is underway. The Zancudo deposit remains open along strike and at depth and we are committed to continuing our exploration program. Preparations are underway for our next drilling campaign comprising a total of 15,000 m of diamond drilling that will target high-grade structures, some of them currently in operation during our early production phase at Zancudo or planned to begin to be mined by mechanized mining in the coming months. This program will build on the successful results achieved in our 2024 in-fill drilling campaign to underscore the potential and prospectivity of delineating new zones and expanding existing ones near planned mining infrastructures. This comprehensive drill program is designed to deliver important data for further resource modelling, mine planning and optimization of production stope design to guide our mine development programs as we ramp up mining activities to feed our new 1,000 tpd processing plant. We look forward to providing further updates through the course of the drilling campaign.”

Mineral Resource Estimate Effective October 31, 2025

The following table summarizes the updated MRE for the Zancudo Project effective as at October 31, 2025 and the previous MRE effective as at October 24, 2023:

Notes:

1) Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. All figures have been rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimates. Gold and silver assays were capped where appropriate.

2) Scott Wilson, CPG, President of RDA is responsible for this mineral resource estimate and is an “independent Qualified Person” as such term is defined by NI 43-101.

3) Reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction were assessed by enclosing the mineralized material within a block model estimate. Mineralization is geologically constrained in 3D wireframe shapes that were constructed based upon geological interpretations as well as adherence to a minimum mining width appropriate for underground mining.

4) Commonly used grade estimations techniques of Inverse Distance Cubed and Ordinary Kriging were used on a vein by vein basis, based upon sample support and vein geometry.

5) The cutoff grade of 3.25 g/t AuEq in the current MRE considered the following factors:

1. Metal selling prices of gold at US$2,400/oz and silver at US$28/oz;
2. Recoveries of Au 85% and Ag 87%;
3. Royalties of 6.7%; and
4. Costs including mining US$105.00/t, processing US$42.00/t, general and administrative (G&A) and off-site realization (TCRC) US$21.00/t.

6) Gold Equivalent is calculated with the formula AuEq = (Au *Au Recovery (85%) * AuPrice + Ag *Ag Recovery (87%) * AgPrice)) / (Au Recovery (85%) *Au Price).

7) Refer to the NI 43-101 Technical Report dated December 14, 2023 with an effective date of October 24, 2023 filed on SEDAR+ and the Company’s website for additional information. The cutoff grade of 4.00 g/t AuEq reflected metal selling prices of gold at US$1,850/oz and silver at US$23/oz.

Next Steps – Highlights of 2026 Drilling Campaign

Denarius Metals also announced today that it is preparing to commence the next stage of its exploration program at Zancudo Project comprising a total of 15,000 m of diamond drilling. The drilling program is expected to commence by the end of the year and run through 2026. This next phase of drilling will focus on four primary objectives, as follows:

• Brisas target – 5,700 m of surface in-fill drilling designed to better delineate and extend the Santa Catalina ore shoot at the Brisas target. The Santa Catalina ore shoot extends from the Independencia Mine to the sector where one of the main stacked mantos, Manto Antiguo, merges into the Santa Catalina structure. The drilling program will be carried out from eight purpose-built surface drill platforms and comprises a total of 29 drill holes with drilling intercepts spaced at 50-meter centers to convert the current Inferred Resources to the Indicated category.
• El Castano target – 2,000 m of surface in-fill drilling designed to upgrade the Inferred Resources associated with the Manto Antiguo structure north and west of the El Castaño Mine to the Indicated category. The drilling program will be carried out from three purpose-built surface drill platforms and comprises a total of 12 drill holes with drilling intercepts spaced at 50-meter centers to convert the current Inferred Resources to the Indicated category.
• Independencia Mine – 4,200 m of underground step-out multi-target drilling designed to extend a set of narrow, sub-parallel, steeply dipping, high-grade gold veins up to 60 m below the current mining level.
• Brownfield drilling – 3,200 m of surface extension drilling aimed at extending the ore-shoot associated with the Manto Antiguo structure to the southwest at the Brisas target, and testing the Mani target, which is interpreted as an upthrown block of an unknown high-grade gold structure intersected in a past drilling campaign.
