ON MEXICO ISSUES

No relevant news.

ON EXPLORATION

Colibri Resource Corporation retained CANMEX Perforaciones y Servicios SA de CV to conduct its next phase of drilling at the EP project in Sonora. The program will be focused on the undrilled San Perfecto and Banco de Oro target areas.
Kenadyr Metals Corp., provided an update on its Adelita copper-gold-silver project in Sonora. The company is preparing to commence Phase 1 exploration activities, including drilling and detailed geophysical surveys at the Cerro Grande skarn zone, following receipt of all necessary permits, including a 20-year mining license. The deal with Infinitum Copper (80%) and Minaurum Gold (20%) is basically done; just waiting on final TSXV approval, and financing is almost wrapped up with a last tranche expected soon. Overall, the project is positioned for active exploration with long-term development potential.
Advance Metals Limited confirmed high grade silver-gold in previously unsampled core at its Yoquivo project. More than 6,300m of unsampled core in the Pertenencia Zone has been identified, representing greater than 50% of the historic drilling completed. First batch of sample results comprising 222.7m of core across 11 holes in the southern portion of Pertenencia Zone has confirmed the untested potential, returning grades of up to 370g/t Ag & 6.2g/t Au. Sampling from holes drilled in 2022 include holes YQ-022-025 with 480 g/t AgEq over 2.05m, including 848 g/t AgEq over 1.1m, and hole YQ-022-002 with 115 g/t AgEq over 4.45m, including 249 g/t AgEq over 0.95m. Multiple additional batches of previously untested core are currently awaiting assay results.
Mithril Silver and Gold Limited provided exploration results and an update for multiple targets at its Copalquin project. Target 5 in the southwest area of Copalquin, which is still in the early stages of exploration but showing great promise that could significantly impact the district´s resource potential, returned impressive silver-gold drill intercepts, including a standout hit of 1,714 g/t AgEq over 1m. Drilling highlights include hole AP25-003 with 2.28 g/t Au and 500 g/t Ag (660 g/t AgEq) over 2.75m, including 5.8 g/t Au and 1,308 g/t Ag (1,714 g/t AgEq) over 1m; hole AP25-005 with 1.71 g/t Au and 246 g/t Ag (366 g/t AgEq) over 3.35m, including 5.35 g/t Au and 771 g/t Ag (1,146 g/t AgEq) over 1.05m; and hole AP25-006 with 4.55 g/t Au and 409 g/t Ag (728 g/t AgEq) over 1,25m, plus 2.41 g/t Au and 447 g/t Ag (616 g/t AgEq) over 0.90m, plus 1.51 g/t Au and 321 g/T AgEq) over 0.80m. To date, 13 drilled holes have been completed at Target 5 with assay results received for the first eight holes. On the other hand, channel sampling at Tasolera mine returned high grade results, including 2 g/t Au and 3,300 g/t Ag (3,440 g/t AgEq) over 1.4m. This target is

rapidly emerging as a major silver zone. Only around 5% of the related vein system has been tested so far, meaning there´s plenty more ground to cover. Ongoing exploration mapping and channel sampling is on progress to expand its footprint. At Target 3, preparations are underway for drilling, supported by ongoing mapping and sampling efforts. This target is a large, highly prospective gold-silver zone with multiple high-grade surface samples and extensive mapped veins. At Target 1 (El Refugio-La Soledad), which hosts the maiden JORC mineral resource estimate, an ongoing drilling program is underway aiming to expand this existing resources by testing its western extensions and deep zones. At Target 6, new targets, including old workings have been identified with some recent sampling and mapping, indicating potential for future exploration. In general, drilling keeps revealing solid gold-silver mineralization, and the company is moving fast with more holes planned in multiple areas of the district.

Heliostar Metals Ltd., and Torex Gold Resources Inc., reported the best drilling intercepts in Mexico on the second week of October, 2025. Details are shown in the table below:

ON EXPLORATION

Tocvan Ventures Corp., reported the early results from a drone magnetic survey at its Gran Pilar Gold-Silver project in Sonora, and announced the discovery of a new target with historic underground workings in the North Alteration Zone.. The survey uncovered a major structural complex in the South Block, spanning approximately 2 by 2.5km. This complex exhibits magnetic signatures suggestive of magmatic activity and correlates strongly with past sampling up to 21.2 g/t Au and over 2,000 g/t Ag. These findings highlight new and expanded exploration targets, especially near areas with historical placer mining, and support the potential for deeper mineralization. The survey results validate geological models and provide a clear pathway for upcoming drill programs to evaluate the project’s mineral resources further. Tocvan also reported that it uncovered a new mineralized zone with 80m exposed section of old underground workings within the North Alteration Zone, with waste piles of silicified vein breccia material, and intense phyllic and argillic alteration. This zone features historic underground workings and extensive alteration patterns of approximately 3.2km long, indicating significant mineralization potential. Initial sampling has returned promising high-grade results for gold and silver, and the company plans to conduct further trenching, detailed mapping, and drilling to explore this largely underexplored area.
Pacifica Silver Corp., identified new high-priority drill targets based on assay results from 325 surface rock chips samples collected at its Claudia project in Durango. These samples yielded results up to 23.6 g/t Au and 480 g/t Ag confirming that the high-grade Au-Ag mineralization at the property is more extensive than previously recognized and may extend further south for another 300m towards the Mina de Oro vein system. Rock chips sample highlights include 111.2 g/t Au and 17 g/t Ag; 7.15 g/t Au and 143 g/t Ag; 2.74 g/t Au and 404 g/t Ag; 3.33 g/t Au and 311 g/t Ag; 2.03 g/t Au and 312 g/t Ag; 0.39 g/t Au and 408 g/t Ag; 1.83 g/t Au and 230 g/t Ag; and 2.19 g/t Au and 190 g/t Ag. The areas around Veta Justina and Mina Vieja are now considered new high-priority targets for drilling. The company also commenced a Phase I drill program, which aims to delineate and expand known mineralization at the northern extension of the Aguilareña, Guadalupana, and Veta Central veins and to drill high-priority, previously undrilled targets at the Mark Twain, Veta West and Veta Justina areas. To date it has completed 647m of drilling across the first three holes. Pacifica Silver plans to apply for permits to drill new targets as part of the program.

ON RESOURCES AND DEVELOPMENT

Southern Silver Exploration Corp., initiated a drilling program at the Puro Corazon mine, which is adjacent to its 100% owned Cerro Las Minitas project in Durango, Mexico. Current development at the mine extends for approximately 200m laterally and to 250m below surface. The exploration program aims to integrate the nine-hectare Puro Corazon claim into the larger project and includes up to 12,000 meters of core drilling using three drill rigs. Drilling will test the further projections of the mined mineralization both laterally for an additional 200m and to depths of up to 450 metres below surface where the mineralization then transitions across the claim boundary and into the modelled Skarn Front deposit. Drilling will also target the projection of up to six hangingwall structures identified outboard of the main mineralized Skarn Front zone which was previously identified in both historic drilling within the Puro Corazon claim and in Southern Silver’s own drilling outside the claim boundary. The program will also compile existing geological data, conduct new sampling in historic underground workings, and perform a LiDAR survey to assess the extent of underground mining. Currently, the Puro Corazon mine is privately operated, producing approximately sixty tonnes of ore per day, generating silver-lead and zinc concentrates. The drilling will target lateral projections of mineralization and depths of up to 450 meters below the surface, focusing on six identified hangingwall structures.

ON MEXICO ISSUES

The full Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN) revoked an injunction granted to a private individual against the reforms to the Mining Law regarding mining and water concessions promoted by former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO). By seven votes in favor and two against, the justices denied the judicial protection requested by the individual because the new concession applications that were in process were dismissed without further proceedings after the reforms came into force in May 2023. During the debate, Hugo Aguilar, president of the SCJN, affirmed that the sovereignty of the State must prevail at all times and that under no circumstances does anyone who submits a mining concession application already have an acquired right, simply by submitting it. (Editor´s Note: The SCJN´s decision is a bad sign, not only for the mining industry but for the entire country, because no respect for the non-retroactivity of laws has been demonstrated, and that’s a basic principle for the Rule of Law).
GR Silver Mining Ltd., and Kingsmen Resources Inc., reported the best drilling intercepts in Mexico on the fourth week of September, 2025. Details are shown in the table below:

ON EXPLORATION

Riverside Resources Inc., and Questcorp Mining Inc., informed that are conducting a drilling program at the Union project in Sonora, targeting five mineral zones. Currently, three targets are actively being drilled, focusing on historic mining areas and new potential zones like Famosa, which shows signs of gold mineralization. The program is progressing on schedule and budget, with promising signs of gold-bearing mineralization, especially in areas with significant quartzite and structural features. The first hole was drilled southeast beneath historic workings, and two more holes were drilled at the El Cobre mine area and the North Union Mine area, perpendicular to stratigraphy and toward interpreted feeder zones along pre-mineral fault structures, primarily within the Clemente Formation. Core samples have been sent to the lab and assays are pending. Goal of this exploration campaign is to define mineralization controls, refine exploration models, conduct an additional induced polarization (IP) survey and evaluate sulfide zones, with ongoing geological interpretation and assay results guiding their next steps.
Colibri Resources Corporation reported that it has engaged TerraEye to advance and enhance exploration at the EP Gold Project in Sonora using a mix of multispectral satellite imagery, geospatial data, AI and data integration like magnetics, gravity, and geochemical database to uncover promising gold targets even hidden by dense vegetation. The goal is to produce a ranked list of exploration targets with detailed maps and reports to accelerate discovery, reduce exploration risks, and optimize field work and drilling efforts, with a planned program in 2025 to expand target identification beyond the initial three drill-tested zones.
Kingsmen Resources Inc., announced initial results from its Las Coloradas project in Chihuahua. Hole LC-25-010 intersected 1,028 g/t AgEq over 1.45m (455 g/t Ag approx), including 1,742g/t Ag over 0.7m (770 g/t Ag approx) and a broader zone of 138 g/t AgEq over 13.35m, confirming potential for high-grade, shallow mineralization near historic ASARCO mining areas. The mineralization includes massive sulfides with sphalerite, galena, arsenopyrite, and pyrrhotite, and shows strong pathfinder elements like antimony, bismuth, and indium, indicating a large, underexplored system. The project covers a historic district with multiple untested structures, and only a small part has been explored. Kingsmen plans to analyze additional drill holes and continues to assess the district’s extensive mineral potential. The company emphasizes the significance of these results in confirming the presence of high-grade silver mineralization and the potential for further discoveries in this prolific mining district.
Pinnacle Silver and Gold Corp., discovered a new vein called El Capulin at its Potrero project in Durango that along with the surface sampling conducted above the Pinos Cuates and Dos de Mayo mines reinforces the idea that a robust low-sulphidation epithermal vein system with significant gold-silver mineralization has been identified at the property. Surface sampling has extended the high-grade-gold and silver mineralization over a vertical distance of up to 80m above the Los Cuates and Dos de Mayo mines, with grades of up to 2,280 g/t Ag and 1,444 g/t Ag, suggesting vertical zonation with silver increasing upwards. Also, sampling on the newly discovered El Capulin vein, with a strike length of 375m, returned values up to 6.27 g/t Au and 99 g/t Ag. This vein lies parallel to Dos de Mayo, 200m away. In addition, mapping at the La Dura mine could extend the Dos de Mayo vein strike length to 500m, with the vein traced for 1,600m overall. All these results add a lot of potential to the El Potrero property.

ON MINING

Guanajuato Silver Company Ltd., made significant upgrades to its mining fleet at its El Cubo and Valenciana mines in Guanajuato, including the delivery of three new low-profile trucks, three scooptrams, and three ordered “Torino” haulage trucks to arrive later. These modern vehicles are designed for enhanced safety, stability, and efficiency underground, aiming to improve operational reliability, increase production, and optimize fleet utilization. The company emphasized that these investments are critical to supporting long-term growth and operational success.

ON FINANCING

Masivo Silver Corp., increased its previously announced non-brokered private placement due to strong investor demand from 16,666,667 to 33,333,334 units for gross proceeds from CAD $1M to CAD $2M. The offering will be priced at CAD $0.06 per unit (Cerro Colorado project, Sonora).
Silver Storm Mining Ltd., closed its previously announced bought deal private placement of 55,065,000 units at a price of CAD $0.25 for gross proceeds of CAD $13,766,250. The company plans to use the net proceeds to advance the restart of the La Parrilla mine in Durango, as well as for general corporate purposes and working capital.
Sandstorm Gold Royalties announced that proxy advisory firms recommended Sandstorm shareholders vote in favor of the proposed arrangement with Royal Gold Inc, scheduled for October 9, 2025. Under the deal, Sandstorm shareholders will receive 0.0625 shares of Royal Gold for each Sandstorm share. The Board of Directors of Sandstorm unanimously supports the vote for the arrangement resolution.
Aztec Minerals Corp., announced a bought deal private placement offering of 21,300,000 common shares of the company at a price of CAD $0.235 per offered share for gross proceeds of CAD $5M, but later on it announce an upsize of the bought deal to 37,020,000 common shares at a price of CAD $0.235 for gross proceeds of CAD $8,699,700. Part of the gross proceeds will be used to conduct exploration work at the Cervantes project in Sonora, as well as for general working capital purposes.
Zacatecas Silver Corp., closed the first tranche of its previously announced private placement for gross proceeds of CAD $2,306,960 by issuing a total of 38,449,335 units at a price of CAD $0.06 per unit. The company plans to use the net proceeds to fund a drilling campaign on its Zacatecas Silver project in Zacatecas.
Oroco Resource Corp., announced a non-brokered private placement of up to 18,000,000 units at a price of USD $0.20 for gross proceeds of up to USD $3.6M. Oroco will use the net proceeds for the advancement of its Santo Tomas project in Sinaloa, as well as for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Questcorp Mining Inc., informed that it will offer up to 17,500,000 units at a price of CAD $0.20 per unit in a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of up to CAD $3.5M. The company plans to use part of the gross proceeds for advancement of ongoing exploration and drill work at the La Union Gold and Silver Project in Sonora, and for general working capital purposes.
Kenadyr Metals Corp., closed the second tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement of 1,959,665 subscription receipts of Kenadyr at a price of CAD $0.37 per subscription receipt for gross proceeds of CAD $734,874.38. In addition to the first tranche closing proceeds of CAD $2,281,513.75, the Offering has raised CAD $3,800,000. The company will used the proceeds to fund payment obligations and exploration expenditures relating to the Adelita Project in Sonora, and for general working capital purposes.

ON RESOURCES AND DEVELOPMENT

Guanajuato Silver Company Ltd., made significant upgrades to its mining fleet at its El Cubo and Valenciana mines in Guanajuato, including the delivery of three new low-profile trucks, three scooptrams, and three ordered “Torino” haulage trucks to arrive later. These modern vehicles are designed for enhanced safety, stability, and efficiency underground, aiming to improve operational reliability, increase production, and optimize fleet utilization. The company emphasized that these investments are critical to supporting long-term growth and operational success.
GR Silver Mining Ltd., released drilling results from the San Marcial area at its Plomosas project in Sinaloa. Drill hole SMS25-10A intersected two distinct mineralized zones in the Parallel Breccia Target, including374 g/t Ag over 9m with high-grade intervals of 1,542 g/t Ag, 1.4% Cu, and 0.62% W over 1m, and 1.44 g/t Au over 33m, with a high-grade interval of 32.1 g/t Au over 1.2m. This drill hole is the farthest southeast drilled in the Parallel Breccia Target, confirming continuity of the mineralized structure over at least 500m from the Resource Area and supporting exploration models linking silver mineralization to a porphyry-style geological setting. The presence of high-grade Ag-Au zones, along with anomalous Cu and W grades, revealed intense high-temperature alteration minerals and epithermal-style quartz-calcite stockwork zones, suggesting proximity to a porphyry-related system and providing valuable vectoring tools for future exploration and strong potential for further resource expansion at San Marcial, particularly in the NE-SW structural trend.
