London, August 26(th), 2025. Orosur Mining Inc. ("Orosur" or the "Company")
(TSXV/AIM:OMI), is pleased to announce an update on the progress of
exploration activities at the Company's flagship, 100% owned, Anzá Gold
Project ("Project") in Colombia, and its El Pantano Gold/Silver Project ("El
Pantano") in Argentina.

 

Anzá - Colombia

As announced on 14(th) July 2025, the Company took the formal decision to
commence infill drilling at its Pepas gold prospect at Anzá with the
objective of moving Pepas to a NI43-101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate
("MRE") by the end of the year.

 

The first several holes of this program (announced 17(th) July 2025),
vindicated this decision by returning exceptional widths and grades,
especially hole PEP045 which returned 62.3m @ 12.76g/t Au.

 

The drill program has been designed in conjunction with external consultants
to facilitate a MRE being calculated, with the multiple objectives of
infilling previous drilling, expanding beyond current drilling to define the
boundaries, and understanding the geological controls upon mineralisation and
the variations in geology and grade across the deposit.

 

Holes will be drilled in an order that attempts to address these issues
concurrently.

 

These four holes announced today are a continuation of this program and
designed largely to infill to the required spacing to allow a MRE to be
calculated to a high level of confidence. Drilling continues to return thick
sequences of high-grade gold mineralisation, starting from surface or near
surface.

 

Importantly, drilling is also providing guidance as to grade and mineralogical
variation across the ore body that will allow our teams to define various
metallurgical domains that will in turn form the basis of more advanced
metallurgical studies that are planned to commence soon.

El Cedro - Anzá, Colombia

The El Cedro prospect is a large gold porphyry system, located toward the
south of the Anzá project, on the same granted exploration licence as the
Pepas and APTA deposits.

 

The Company has recommenced a large ridge and spur soil sampling program that
had been previously suspended due to seasonal rain and access issues.  This
program is now roughly 45% complete, and it is expected that the remainder of
the program should be completed by mid-October 2025.

 

The first batch of 40 samples from the restarted program have been submitted
for assay this week, with results expected soon.

 

 

El Pantano - Argentina

The El Pantano Project is an early-stage gold/silver exploration project in
Santa Cruz province, southern Argentina.

 

The Project comprises approximately 550km2 of contiguous licences in the
prolific Deseado Massif region, roughly 45km from Anglo Gold's Cerro
Vanguardia mining camp.

 

The El Pantano Project is subject to an Exploration & Joint Venture ("JV")
agreement ("Agreement") with private Argentinean company DESEADO DORADO S.A.S
and its shareholders ("Deseado"), the details of which were announced on
February 15(th) 2022. The Company has earned a 51% interest in the El Pantano
Project and must spend an additional US$2m in the two years from Feb 14(th),
2025, in order to earn 100% ownership.

 

The Company has been carrying out regional exploration at El Pantano for
several years, including geological mapping, geochemical sampling, ground
magnetics and induced polarisation geophysical surveys. These work programs
have provided evidence suggestive of major rift-related low sulphidation
epithermal system, of the type that has led to the development of major gold
and silver deposits in the region.

 

Drill permits for El Pantano were obtained late in 2024, and the Company is
now finalising drill contracts with a view to commencing drilling in
mid-October 2025, the first drill program that has ever been undertaken
anywhere on the property.

 

Between 10 and 14 diamond holes are planned for a total of approximately
3000m, targeting geological structures and geochemical/geophysical anomalies
identified from previous work. Additional details will be provided once more
precise timing is finalised.

 

The area is very remote and largely unpopulated and thus substantial effort
has been required to plan and develop the necessary camp and access
infrastructure for a drilling program of this size.

 

The Deseado Massif is a major gold producing area in Argentina and thus some
necessary downstream infrastructure exists in the region. In particular, an
international laboratory company has a fire assay facility in the regional
town of Perito Moreno and thus a short assay turnaround time (for gold and
silver) is anticipated.

 

 

Orosur CEO Brad George commented:

"Pepas remains on track and the high bar set by the early holes continues to
be cleared on a regular basis. In the meantime, we are excited to be getting
close to opening a second drilling front on our El Pantano project in
Argentina. Early stage, but this is elephant country, and we like what we have
seen thus far".

 

 

Colombia - ANZÁ Project ("Project")

The Anzá Project is now 100% owned by the Company following completion of a
Share Purchase Agreement ("SPA"), announced 28(th) November 2024, whereby the
Company purchased all of the shares of its previous JV partner; Minera Monte
Aguila ("MMA").

 

The Project, which is located 50km west of Medellin, is easily accessible and
boasts excellent infrastructure including water, power and communications as
well as a large exploration camp.

 

From September 2018 to November 2024, the Anzá Project was under the control
of its previous JV partner MMA, itself a 50/50 venture between the world's two
largest gold miners, Agnico Eagle Mines and Newmont Mining.

 

Prospects

The Company is currently focussed on three prospects within the Anzá Project
- Pepas, APTA and El Cedro. All three prospects are within the same granted
exploration title that is broken into two, non-contiguous pieces (Figure 2).

 

Drilling is currently being undertaken at the Pepas prospect in the northern
extent of the Anzá Project (pre-acquisition) over 10km north of the central
base camp at APTA. In parallel, mapping and sampling is being undertaken over
the El Cedro porphyry system in the south of the project area.

Qualified Persons Statement

The information in this news release was compiled, reviewed, verified and
approved by Mr. Brad George, BSc Hons (Geology and Geophysics), MBA, Member of
the Australian Institute of Geoscientists (MAIG), CEO of Orosur Mining Inc.
and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.

 

Orosur Mining Inc. staff follow standard operating and quality assurance
procedures to ensure that sampling techniques and sample results meet
international reporting standards.

 

Drill core is split in half over widths that vary between 0.3m and 2m,
depending upon the geological domain. One half is kept on site in the Minera
Anzá core storage facility, with the other sent for assay.

 

Industry standard QAQC protocols are put in place with approximately 10% of
total submitted samples being blanks, repeats or Certified Reference Materials
(CRMs).

 

Samples for holes PEP-001 to PEP-011 were sent to the Medellin preparation
facility of ALS Colombia Ltd, and then to the ISO 9001 certified ALS Chemex
laboratory in Lima, Peru.

 

Samples from PEP-012 onwards are sent to Medellin laboratory of Actlabs for
preparation and assay.

 

30 gram nominal weight samples are then subject to fire assay and AAS analysis
for gold with gravimetric re-finish for overlimit assays of >5 g/t.
ICP-MS Ultra-Trace level multi-element four-acid digest analyses may also
undertaken for such elements as silver, copper, lead and zinc, etc.

 

Gold intersections are reported using a lower cut-off of 0.3g/t Au over 3m.

 

Intersections are quoted as downhole thicknesses.  True thicknesses are
unknown.
