Wheaton Precious Metals Announces Passing of Former Director

 

Vancouver, British Columbia - Wheaton Precious Metals™ Corp. ("Wheaton" or
the "Company) regrets to announce that one of the Company's founding board
members, John Brough, passed away on May 17, 2023, due to a health-related
issue.

 

Spanning a career of over 40 years, Mr. Brough was active in both the real
estate and mining industries. Throughout Mr. Brough's tenure with Wheaton, he
played an integral role in the successful development and growth of the
Company as a dedicated member of the Board of Directors, having held the
positions of Chair of the Audit Committee and a member of the Governance and
Sustainability Committee.

 

"John's strategic foresight, guidance and support have been a core part of our
development and growth," said Randy Smallwood, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Wheaton. "Our success reflects John's firm commitment to building
Wheaton into one of the best precious metals streaming companies in the world.
I would like to express our sincere gratitude for his service. John will
always be a part of Wheaton. On behalf of the board of directors, management
and staff of Wheaton, our deepest sympathies are with John's family and
friends during this difficult time."

 

"John will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His contributions to Wheaton
and the business community as a whole will always be remembered and
appreciated," said George Brack, Chair of the Board of Directors of Wheaton.

 

In memory of Mr. Brough, Wheaton will make an increased contribution to
Wellspring Cancer Support, a non-profit organization that provides support and
programs at no charge to anyone with cancer. Mr. Brough was a strong advocate
for the organization and Wheaton is honoured to support this important cause.
