ARIS MINING REPORTS Q3 2024 GOLD PRODUCTION, UPDATES SEGOVIA RESERVE AND RESOURCE ESTIMATES AND EXPANSION MILESTONES


VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – Aris Mining Company (Aris Mining or the Corporate) (TSX: ARIS) (NYSE-A: ARMN) broadcasts gold manufacturing result of 53,608 oz. (ounces) for Q3 2024, with 47,493 ounces from Segovia and six,115 ounces from the Marmato Higher Mine. This represents a 9% building up over overall gold manufacturing in Q2 2024.   Moreover, the Corporate has made vital advance on enlargement tasks at Segovia and has up to date mineral useful resource and mineral book estimates with an efficient generation of July 31, 2024.  On the Marmato Decrease Mine, development is advancing on time table and has crossed the 25% spend threshold.

Neil Woodyer, CEO of Aris Mining, commented “We are pleased to share the continued progress of our Segovia and Marmato expansion projects, which position Aris Mining to achieve an annual gold production rate of approximately 500,000 oz in the second half of 2026. The first phase of the Segovia Expansion, which includes an expanded receiving area for mill feed from our mining partners, has been successfully commissioned. Phase 2 of the Segovia Expansion is underway and is on track for completion in Q1 2025. Following completion and ramp-up, Segovia’s gold production is expected to exceed 300,000 oz per year. This growth is driven by a focused exploration strategy that has consistently increased gold resources and replaced gold reserves.  Additionally, construction of the Marmato Lower Mine remains on schedule, and we continue to advance the studies for the redesigned and smaller environmental footprint Soto Norte project for early 2025.”

Segovia – Growth updates

Segment 1 of the Segovia enlargement is entire with the newly expanded receiving section for our pledge mining companions (CMPs) totally commissioned and being passed over to operations.  The expanded receiving section complements mill feed capability and operational efficiencies. Segment 2, which comes to putting in a 2d ball mill within the former contractor receiving section, is underway and scheduled for crowning glory in Q1 2025. The fresh ball mill will building up throughput and permit finer grinding, procedure potency and gold manufacturing.

Gold manufacturing from Segovia in Q3 2024 totaled 47,493 ounces, reflecting a 9% building up over Q2 2024.  With the growth ramp-up in thoughts, Aris Mining is focused on gold manufacturing from Segovia of 185,000 to 195,000 ounces in 2024, 250,000 ounces in 2025 and over 300,000 ounces in 2026.

Segovia – Up to date Mineral Useful resource and Mineral Conserve Estimates

As introduced in our August 2024 exploration drilling effects information reduce1, Segovia’s exploration systems proceed in order high-grade intersections. Those effects are integrated in up to date estimates efficient July 31, 2024, to bring about expansion of the mineral sources and entire substitute of the mineral reserves (see Figures 1 and a couple of beneath).  Those fresh estimates develop at the sturdy expansion in 2023 and backup the continuing Segovia enlargement challenge. The 2025 drilling program is anticipated to concentrate on those newly recognized near-mine mineral sources, aiming to transform them into mineral reserves with low construction prices.

Marmato enlargement updates

The Marmato Decrease Mine enlargement is progressing on time table, with the website get admission to highway and portal face now entire and the contractor getting ready to start up paintings at the dual declines. Each the SAG and ball mill fabrication are progressing on time table for crowning glory sooner than the top of 2024. Annual gold manufacturing from the Marmato Higher and Decrease mines is anticipated to develop to a mean of 162,000 oz. over a 20-year mine pace as soon as the Decrease Mine is operational3.

As of September 30, 2024, the challenge reached the “25% spend” milestone required for the primary milestone fee below the valuable metals acquire guarantee with Wheaton Valuable Metals (WPMI). WPMI has been notified, and the US$40 million first milestone fee is anticipated to be gained sooner than the top of the pace, with alternative US$40 million and US$42 million bills on the 50% and 75% spend milestones, respectively.
