Budgeted Work Program of the Metalurgista Project⁽¹⁾

As outlined in the Corporation’s news release dated March 4, 2025, CDPR has initiated the two-phase work program on the El Metalurgista concession recommended in the technical report titled “National Instrument 43-101 El Metalurgista Concession – Pasco, Peru”, prepared for the Corporation by CSA Global and dated March 15, 2021, with an effective date of August 31, 2020 (the “2021 Technical Report”). The 2021 Technical Report is accessible on the Corporation’s issuer profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

The 2021 Technical Report recommendations comprised two phases, Phase 1 $508,500 and Phase 2 $516,000, for a total of $1,024,500 which covered the data verification program for the Excelsior Stockpile and Quiulacocha Tailings drilling and metallurgical test programs.

As a result of the addition of the geophysical program and environmental program along with work toward the items associated with an NI 43-101 technical report, as well as the increase of costs due to inflationary pressures since 2021, the Phase 1 budget was updated to $1,607,359, with $620,000 of the revised budget yet to be expended.

Phase 2 metallurgical testwork will depend on the outcomes of work completed in Phase 1, especially the geometallurgical study and the metallurgical testwork. At this stage, a work program has only been planned to support the evaluation of potential re-processing of the historical Quiulacocha tailings and the budget for Phase 2 remains the same. Testwork will focus on reproducing Phase 1 results with Phase 2 drill samples and confirming process design.
