Geological Mapping, Ground Magnetics and Rock Sampling supports the extension of the “Ariana Corridor”, an emerging new polymetallic trend in central Peru, traversing the Cerro Huancash Project

Rock Sampling conducted by RGX reported high grade Zn, Pb, Cu, Ag, + Au from old workings hosted by discontinuous skarn outcrops over +1.2 x 0.4 km area:

  • Zn assays up to 19.0%, Pb up to 17.75%, Cu up to 0.89%, with 17 (41%) of the samples reporting >1% of Zn or Pb (or both)

• Ag assays up to 2,460 g/t, with 12 (29%) of samples reporting >100 g/t Ag and 5 reporting >500 g/t Ag

  • Au assays up to 0.74 g/t, with 15 (37%) reporting >0.1 g/t Au

- La Negra Maiden Mineralisation Discovery

  • Polymetallic (Zn, Pb, Ag + Au) mineralisation confirmed by 12 holes (totalling 2,520m) of current year drilling along 400 m segment of breccia unit

  • Significant Upside - with total outcropping mineralised breccia strike length exceeding 1300 m (well beyond stage 1 footprint)

  • Mineralised breccia conforms to anomalous surface geochemistry halos and chargeability anomaly mapped in 3D induced polarisation survey

  • Relatively thin oxidised zone overlying sulphide resource target

  • Independent preliminary metallurgical testing by Promet 101 confirms La Negra sulphide ores appear highly amendable to separation through conventional sulphide flotation circuits

STRATEGY

  • Team is expert in this Cu-Au mineralisation style Targeting kilometric zones of old copper-gold workings Rich copper oxides mined to 10-15 metres depth

  • Copper sulphides (bornite-chalcopyrite) discovered below

  • Potential for moderate-large sized sulphide resources

  • Potential for entry at relatively low cost

  • Initial Project enhancement through field geology & geophysics (modest investment)

  • Seek strategic parties to fund future deeper drill exploration (larger investment)

  • Identified potential commercial, polymetallic mineralisation at the previously undrilled La Negra site

  • Substantially upgraded the prospectivity of the Cerro Huancash Project in Peru, demonstrating continuation of the Ariana polymetallic mineralisation zone currently being developed in adjacent tenement

  • 100% ownership of projects provides future funding optionality

  • Advancing Joint Venture Discussions on its 100% owned projects

  • Significant upside in New Copper-Gold Project Opportunities

  • Clear strategy to advance New Copper-Gold Projects

  • Extremely competitively priced relative to junior explorer peers
