Peruvian Metals Corp (TSX-V: PER) (OTC Pink: DUVNF) is pleased to provide a corporate update regarding 2026 production at the 80% owned Aguila Norte Processing Plant, new sample results from the tailings area and the reinstatement on the QTCQB trading platform in the United States. The Company is also pleased to announce the commencement of the civil works required for the expansion of the Plant located in Northern Peru.

During the month of October, the Plant processed a total of 3,142 metric tonnes (mt) and now achieved full production for 21 consecutive months. The Plant continues to be on track to achieve another year of full capacity production. Since 2017, the Plant has processed in excess of 227,000 tonnes. The Company is also pleased to note that a new platform is currently being constructed to host a second ball mill. Civil works for the new ball mill are ongoing and will be ready in the new year.

The Company is also pleased to announce tailings material from an area of approximately 1250 square metres ranging 1 to 2 metres in depth was extracted and placed near the flotation circuit for drying. Thirty-one samples were taken from this extracted material and returned an average of 2.17 grams gold/mt and 87 grams silver/mt. At the current Au and Ag prices of approximately $4000 US and $50 US per ounces respectively, this equates to 0.108 oz Au equivalent/mt. The gold results range from 1.50 to 3.00 grams Au/mt and silver ranges from 1.66 ounces Ag /mt to 4.49 ounces Ag/mt. These new results are from the same tailings area and are comparable to the results previously reported in the Company’s press release dated September 9, 2026. Metallurgical test work confirmed the high recoveries of gold and silver at 93% and 87% respectively.

The Company has started the process to re-instate its OTCQB listing in the United States. The trading platform is designed to provide another avenue for investors to trade Peruvian Metals shares and to provide an increasing awareness around our company for U.S. investors. The OTCQB is recognized by the Securities and Exchange Commission as an “established public market” for determining the public market price when registering securities for resale.

Jeffrey Reeder, Chief Executive Officer of Peruvian Metals, comments: “The company’s Aguila Norte processing facility has been operating successfully and continues to achieve positive operating cash flow. We also believe that the re-instatement of the Company for trading on the OTCQB will lead to overall enhanced liquidity and visibility in global capital markets developing and entrepreneurial-stage companies.”
