Alta Copper Corp. Receives Drill Permit Application from Ministry of Energy and Mines of Peru Alta Copper Corp. announced that its Declaracion de Impacto Ambiental drill permit application has been approved by the Ministry of Energy and Mines of Peru ("MINEM") while also receiving Certificates of Non-Existence of Archaeological Remains on Surface ("CIRAS") from the Ministry of Culture of Peru. The Company submitted its DIA to MINEM in December 2023 which included advanced Environmental and Social Impact Assessment studies ("ESIA"). As previously reported the DIA process included a successful community participation workshop held in late October 2023 during which the Executive Management of Energy and Mines for the Regional Government of Lambayeque explained the scope of the environmental studies and the DIA application to the community of Canaris. The DIA determines the environmental viability to drill 42,400 meters to be completed in phases of 10,000 meters which is targeted to commence prior to second quarter-2025. As required pursuant to the National Environmental Impact Assessment System Law approved by Law Ndeg 27446, its regulation and the Environmental Protection Regulations for Mining Exploration Activities approved by Supreme Decree Ndeg 042-2017-EM, Alta Copper was required to file an ESIA and obtain an Environmental Management Instrument. The Environmental Management Instrument to conduct mining exploration activities was required in view of the advanced stage of development of the Canariaco project. In anticipation of the Company's drilling program Alta Copper completed a new geological model for the Canariaco Norte deposit in 2024 while identifying significant mineralization potential and numerous high priority drill targets which will provide the foundation for future drilling programs. The DIA will allow for up to 42,400 metres of drilling to be completed in phases of10,000 meters. The proposed drill holes have been targeted to cross and fill in the recently identified zones of high-grade copper mineralization extending to depth in Canariaco Norte which are not included in the current mineral resource estimate due to drill spacing between the holes and limitations of drill data at depth. The remaining drill platforms will be used to drill the Canariaco Sur and Quebrada Verde porphyries, targeting extensions of known mineralization laterally and at depth and near surface geochemical anomalies and mineralization exposed in creek beds. Geological Modelling completed in 2024 included the re-interpretation of district-scale and project-specific geology including statistical analyses on alteration effects to various lithologies. The 2024 geological modelling identified several high-grade copper zones with previously untested potential depth extensions. These zones as well as internal zones, where infill drilling could expand some high-grade zones, will be drill tested with the goal of further enhancing the current substantial mineral resource already defined at Canariaco. The 2024 geological model for alteration and lithologies relies on detailed logging of 85,000 metres drilled between 2004 and 2013, largely in Canariaco Norte. Information which was captured in historic logs has been recently reviewed. Multi-element geochemical data available for most of the holes was used to establish lithological and alteration zonation modelling. The data collected has not previously been incorporated into a formal three-dimensional geological model. It is expected that future drilling of defined high priority targets is expected to improve project economics recently reported in the Company's Preliminary Economic Assessment completed in May 2024. Further drilling and resource expansions will be considered as the project continues along the development and permitting path. A review of deeper zones of the Norte deposit recently identified that 32 of 47 drill holes drilled to 400 metres or more bottomed in mineralization. DDH 07-135 bottomed in 0.55% Cu (over last 10 metres) at 721 metres. Aankondiging • Sep 17

Alta Copper Corp. Provides an Update on Significant Developments and Progress to Date on Several Fronts At Its 100% Owned Cañariaco Advanced Staged Copper Project Alta Copper Corp. provided an update on significant developments and progress to date on several fronts at its 100% owned Canariaco advanced staged copper project. Whittle Consulting Pty Ltd. ("Whittle") and Ausenco Engineering Canada Inc. ("Ausenco") and AGP Mining Consultants Inc. were engaged in 2023 for purposes of advancing project optimization which involves a rigorous analytical and computational process using Whittle's Strategic Mine Planning software and Integrated Strategic Planning concepts. To date, hundreds of iterations of pit shells have been conducted to establish the most advantageous mine plan. In addition, statistical studies that identified several compelling alteration effects on the deposit, were incorporated into 3D Geological Modelling and have been linked to zones with higher copper grades all of which will be incorporated in Optimized PEA. Based on what are considered very positive developments with 3D Geological Modelling, more fully described below, positive metallurgical testwork on Cañariaco Sur and Whittle optimization, the Company is now targeting to publish the optimized 2024 PEA on or before May 15, 2024. The Optimized PEA has benefited from previously conducted engineering studies over many years, especially 2010 through 2014 and 2021 to 2022, which will prove to show many aspects developed beyond a typical PEA level. A new geological model for the Project has been completed with the re-interpretation of district-scale and project-specific geology including statistical analyses on alteration effects to various lithologies. This new geological model, has identified significant mineralization potential and numerous high priority drill targets which will provide the foundation for the planned staged 10,000 to 20,000 metre drilling program targeted to commence by Q4-2024. The 2024 geological modelling has identified several high-grade copper zones with previously untested potential depth extensions. These zones as well as internal zones, where infill drilling could expand some high-grade zones, will be drill tested with the goal of further enhancing the current substantial mineral resource already defined at Cañariaco. The 2024 geological model for alteration and lithologies relies on detailed logging of 85,000 metres drilled between 2006 and 2013, largely in Cañariaco Norte. Information which was captured in historic logs has been recently reviewed. Multi-element geochemical data available for most of the holes was used to establish lithological and alteration zonation modelling. The data collected has not previously been incorporated into a formal three-dimensional geological model. Interpretation of geology was hand drawn on cross sections, where appropriate, and together with the other technical datasets, was integrated into Leapfrog software to generate the new three-dimensional model. Current geological model and observations from historical drilling will provide the framework for upcoming diamond drilling program. In addition, a generative study is underway to provide a portfolio of targets for future testing, in a district that remains underexplored. Aankondiging • Apr 13

Within the ultimate pit, at the $6.52/t NSR cut-off the classification breakdown of the mill feed material is 54% Measured Mineral Resources, 38% Indicated Mineral Resources and 8% Inferred Mineral Resources. The 2022 PEA is preliminary in nature. It includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves and there is no certainty that the 2022 PEA will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. An Inferred Mineral Resource estimate was also recently completed for a portion of Cañariaco Sur which contains 2.2 Blb Cu, 1.2 Moz Au and 15 Moz Ag (NR 144), however the 2022 PEA mine plan only includes resources from Cañariaco Norte. The current scope of development incorporates open pit mining, crushing, semi-autogenous grinding (“SAG”), and flotation followed by a waste management facility using co-mingling (mixed together) and co-placement (not mixed together) deposition strategies for filtered tailings and waste rock. The initial production rate is expected to be 40,000 tpd with an expansion to 80,000 tpd in year 7 of operation. The LOM waste to mineralized material stripping ratio is very low at 0.66:1, with the majority of waste coming out by year 10. Incorporation of the filtered tailings technology is favoured for new mining projects as it eliminates the need for wet slurry tailings deposition along with being considered best practice for environmental compliance and social acceptance. The 2022 PEA mine plan calls for a mine life of 28 years, however additional mineral resources exist below the current pit outline which may offer potential to extend the mine life. Importantly, updated geometallurgical modelling of Cañariaco Norte has provided a more detailed understanding of the deposit and mineralization and enabled development of a mine plan that could produce a marketable copper concentrate with no requirement for treatment to reduce arsenic.

Candente Copper Corp. Announces Updated PEA Planned for Cañariaco Norte Copper Project Peru Candente Copper Corp. announced that based on the results of the Internal Desk Top Study by Ausenco Engineering Inc., proposals are being requested from two international engineering firms to conduct an updated Preliminary
Economic Assessment Study to evaluate the most attractive potential development strategy for the Cañariaco Norte Project. Considerations for the PEA are various initial concentrator throughputs including 40,000; 50,000; and 60,000 tonnes per day followed by a staged expansion of production rate. Geometallurgical modelling of the deposit and updated smelting costs have indicated that the Outotec Roaster proposed during previous studies will not be required, and therefore it will not be contemplated in the PEA. Tailings storage methodologies which could improve ESG practices will also be assessed in more detail as part of the PEA. Executive Departure • May 22

Candente Copper Corp. Provides Update on Desk Top Studies on Cañariaco Norte Higher Grade Project Candente Copper Corp. announced that it has engaged Ausenco Engineering Canada Inc. ("Ausenco") to conduct Desk Top Studies to identify and define a smaller, higher grade, start up option for Cañariaco with a smaller initial capital expenditure ("CapEx") and accelerated payback period. This study is expected to take 4 to 6 weeks to complete. Assuming favourable results from the Desk Top Studies the Company would look to move into a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") on the Revised Project Concept which would be expected to take approximately 4 months to complete. The Company is fully funded for both levels of studies. Ausenco is globally recognised for providing consulting, project delivery, and asset operations services to the international mining sector including high performance copper processing and infrastructure projects. Ausenco has a 30-year track record in delivering
specialized end-to-end solutions which are proven to lower capital and operating costs, reduce construction time and improve plant efficiencies. Ausenco's project experience ranges from small conceptual studies for new developments through to the construction of large scale minerals processing facilities. In Peru, Ausenco's experience includes providing Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management services to design, construct, and commission the 25 million tonnes per year concentrator and associated infrastructure for the Constancia Copper Molybdenum Project owned by Hudbay. Furthermore, Ausenco is currently in the final stages of providing Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management services to design, construct, and commission two processing facilities that will process 6 million tonnes per year of copper sulfide ore and 12 million tonnes per year of oxide ore via solvent extraction and oxide leaching facility (along with associated infrastructure) for the Mina Justa project owned by Marcobre S.A.C. (controlled by Minsur S.A.). Aankondiging • Feb 23
Candente Copper Corp. Announces Corporate Update and Engineering Study Proposals Under Evaluation Candente Copper Corp. announced that it has received and is reviewing proposals from two internationally acclaimed engineering firms for engineering studies to identify and define various value add options for the development of the Cañariaco Project. The first goal of the engineering study is to define/identify a smaller, higher grade, start up option for Cañariaco with a smaller initial capital expenditure (“CapEx”) and accelerated payback period. This is expected to be able to be permitted and financed to production more quickly than the larger option. The intention would be that once the development capital is paid back, the smaller operation could then be expanded to fully recognize the value of the large copper-gold resource that exists at Cañariaco. The second goal is to explore other potential options with a mind to establish both cost efficiencies and environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) friendly development options. Current industry wide ESG initiatives and responsible investing is driving innovation in environmentally friendly, sustainable development and finance products. This innovation has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic and increased urgency around the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, resulting in many new development options to consider now.

Candente Copper Corp. Signs Assignment Agreement with Forte Copper on Don Gregorio Copper-Gold Project, Peru Candente Copper Corp. announced that the company has entered into an Assignment Agreement with Forte Copper Corp. on the Don Gregorio copper-gold porphyry project. The recently signed Assignment Agreement allows Forte Copper to move ahead with applications for drilling permits. Under the Assignment and Option Agreements Forte Copper has the right to earn a 60% interest in the Don Gregorio property by completing the following terms: Making payments of $500,000 to Candente; and Drilling 10,000 metres within three years of receiving drilling permits of which 5,000 metres must be drilled within two years; Forte Copper may pay $100/metre cash in lieu of metres not drilled. The Assignment Agreement is for 5 years such that if the 10,000 metres have not been drilled (including cash paid in lieu), then the property must be returned to Candente Copper Corp. To date, the company has received payments totalling: $100,000 and reimbursements for fees for annual mineral rights totalling $41,540. Candente Copper acquired the Don Gregorio from the Peruvian government in a competitive auction in 2008. Don Gregorio covers a mineralized (copper-gold) porphyry system, that occurs within the same geological trend as Yanacocha, Cerro Corona and Cañariaco. Don Gregorio (previously referred to as La Huaca) was discovered by Ingemmet (Peruvian government geological survey) in 1974 during a regional exploration program. In 1977, 8 holes were drilled to a maximum of 107 metres ("m") and intersected o.22 to o.56% Cu over 15m to 100m, averaging 50m and bottoming in mineralization. These holes were not analysed for gold. In 1992, a Newmont Buenaventura Joint Venture (“JV”) discovered a gold ("Au") zone in surface samples covering 200m by 700m coincident with copper ("Cu") previously delineated in a north-northwesterly trending zone. In 1995, the Newmont-Buenaventura JV drilled 4 holes in 800m. These 4 holes were also mineralized to final depths. The 12 holes totalling 1,642m drilled to date indicate copper and gold mineralization occurs over a minimum of 400m vertically from 2,600 to 2,200 metres in elevation. Mineral intercepts in the historic drilling include 153.3m of 0.394 percent (“%") Cu & 0.18 grams per tonne (“g/t ") Au. Surface samples collected to date include assays of: 20m of 1.23% Cu and 0.26 g/t Au; 9m at 1.13% Cu and 0.90 g/t Au; 3m at 1.36% Cu and 0.84 g/t Au.
