Asset Portfolio Updates

Camino Rojo (2% NSR)

Orla Mining Ltd. declared commercial production at its Camino Rojo oxide mine effective April 1, 2022, after a successful commissioning period which included the ramp up of mining and processing to sustained throughput levels. All major construction activities have now been completed and Camino Rojo has demonstrated its ability to sustain ongoing production levels. Record monthly processing throughput was achieved at Camino Rojo in March 2022. The average daily stacking throughput for the month was 17,444 tonnes per day (“tpd”) or 97% of nameplate capacity of 18,000 tpd. Achieving nameplate capacity is expected during the second quarter of 2022. Orla will continue to seek opportunities to improve and optimize the throughput and availabilities to achieve and ultimately exceed design nameplate capacities.

Beta Hunt (4.75% Gold Royalty and 1.5% Nickel Royalty)

On April 7, 2022, Karora Resources Inc. announced an updated consolidated gold mineral resource highlighted by the maiden gold resource for the Larkin Zone at the Beta Hunt mine. Beta Hunt gold measured and indicated mineral resources increased by 7% to 1.12 million ounces and the gold inferred mineral resource increased by 46% to 786,000 ounces. Significant Beta Hunt additions include the maiden Larkin Zone mineral resource comprising gold measured and indicated resources of 1.44 million tonnes at 2.6 grams per tonne for 119,000 ounces and a gold inferred resource of 2.17 million tonnes at 2.3 g/t for 162,000 ounces. The Larkin Zone has been delineated to a strike length of over 1,000 metres and a depth of 150 metres and remains open along strike and at depth providing significant potential for further expansion as the drill program at Beta Hunt continues. Targeted drilling at Beta Hunt continues to grow the gold mineral resource inventory in support of Karora’s growth plan which is underpinned by an expansion to 2.0 million tonnes per annum production from Beta Hunt by 2024.

Mt Carlton (2.5% NSR)

On April 22, 2022, Navarre Minerals Limited announced high-grade gold, silver and copper drilling intercepts at its Mt Carlton United deposit part of the recently acquired Mt Carlton Operation (“Mt Carlton”). With drill intercepts of up to 22.9 g/t gold, 1,327 g/t silver and 4.2% copper, the results confirm the outstanding grade and continuity of the mineral inventory at MCU, approximately four kilometres southwest of the Mt Carlton processing facility. While drilling continues in 2022 as part of an ongoing exploration program, Navarre anticipates the drilling results released to date will be incorporated into an updated resource estimate for MCU which is expected to be published in September 2022, along with updated mineral resources for other Mt Carlton deposits such as V2, Telstra Hill and Crush Creek.

Omolon (2.5% GRR)

On April 25, 2022 Polymetal International plc announced it continues to operate safely and profitably and is fully focused on ensuring business continuity and long-term viability. Polymetal also reconfirmed its fiscal 2022 production guidance. Sanctions announced in the period between March 9, 2022 and April 25, 2022 did not have a material impact on the business of Polymetal and it complies rigorously with all relevant legislation and is implementing comprehensive measures to observe all applicable international sanctions. The scope and impact of any new potential sanctions (and any countersanctions) are yet unknown, however they might further affect key Russian financial institutions as well as mining companies, including Polymetal. Maverix understands that contingency planning has been initiated by Polymetal proactively to maintain business continuity in the event of adverse developments, but no assurances can be made in this regard. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine and any restrictive actions that have or may be taken in response thereto, such as sanctions, export and or currency controls, could have negative impacts on Polymetal’s ability to continue operation of the Omolon hub and Polymetal’s ability to make payments to the Company.

Karma (2% NSR)

On March 11, 2022, Endeavour Mining plc announced that it had closed the sale of its 90% interest in its Karma mine to Néré Mining. A key consideration of the sales process was the selection of a party that will maintain Endeavour’s trusted partnerships in Burkina Faso, by committing to operate the mine in the best interests of employees and stakeholders. Néré Mining is a Burkina Faso based consortium led by a board member of both Karma and a subsidiary of Endeavour that holds the mining license for the Endeavour Group’s Mana mine.

DeLamar (2.5% NSR)

On April 21, 2022, Integra Resources Corp. announced a simplified strategy to advance the heap leach stage of the project into permitting and development on a standalone basis. Permitting work at DeLamar has been initiated and baseline study work is well underway to support the submittal of a Plan of Operations in H1 2023. Advancing the DeLamar gold-silver project towards permitting and development of the heap leach stage as a standalone mining operation is a lower cost, lower risk option, creating strong economic returns and rapid payback. Non-oxide milling expansion will continue to be optimized through further study work and could be pursued under the right market conditions.

Silvertip (2.5% NSR)

On April 28, 2022, Coeur Mining, Inc. announced a new discovery at the Silvertip mine that indicates significant potential to grow the mineral resources of the mine immediately west of existing infrastructure. Surface and underground drilling led to the discovery of a new high-grade chimney west of the Camp Creek resource located at a shallower depth, called Camp Creek West. The first full drill holes into the zone returned the highest grade-thickness assays at Silvertip to date. For the remainder of 2022, Coeur expects to continue infill drilling in the Southern Silver and Central zones from underground. An additional surface core rig is expected to be added following the snow melt to perform expansion drilling at Camp Creek West.

McCoy-Cove (1.5% + 2.0% NSR)

On March 7, 2022, i-80 Gold Corp. announced that the underground, advanced-exploration, program at the McCoy-Cove project had commenced. Construction of the decline is now underway and the Phase 1 program will include construction of an initial level with multiple drill bays to provide access for upgrading resources. Approximately 40,000 metres of underground definition and expansion drilling is anticipated to commence in H2 2022 followed by a feasibility study anticipated to be completed in 2023. The Cove deposit represents one of North America’s highest grade gold deposits with grades in excess of 10 g/t gold. The deposit remains open for expansion down-dip.
