Minera IRL Limited Completes Diamond Drill Program At the Corihuarmi Gold Mine and Begins A New Two-Phase Drilling Campaign Minera IRL Limited report assay results from the final drill holes completed as part of the Diamond Drill ("DDH") Program started in July 2022 at the Company's producing Corihuarmi Gold Mine ("Corihuarmi") located in central Peru. Highlights of the final diamond drill holes include: D22-17,7, 7.70 m of oxides from 35.80 m depth assaying 0.75 gramsu per tonne ("g/t Au"), and 1.1.30 m of oxides from 64.70 m depth assaying 0.37 g/t Au. DDH22-19, 2.65 m of oxides from 10.35 m depth assaying 0.30 g/t Au. DDH22-23, 1.55 m of oxides from 58.40 m depth assaying 0.34 g/t Au. Further to the DDH Program, the Company has recently launched a two-phase long-hole ("LH") drilling campaign targeting specific areas within the mining concessions that are reported to contain coarse gold mineralization with grades in the range of 0.13 g/t Au to 0.24 g/t Au. This LH drilling campaign has been primarily designed for: Genatining an additional database to supplement Reverse Circulation and DDH da as part of the current efforort to update the Mineral Resource Estimate. Optimizing the blending process by placing high grade fine material and low to medium grade coarse material at the leach pads in an effort to improve gold recoveries. Updating the mine plan and design aimed to increase gold production in 2023 and lower operational costs by maintaining low strip ratios and reducing haul distances to the leach pads. Pha I ofof the LH drilling campaign commenced during the last week of November 2022 and consists of1 drill holes,s, totaling over 1,680 metres. The Company anticipates that Phase II will begin halfway through February 2023 and will consist of 24 drill holes, totaling over 625 metres. The Company plans to release the results as the drilling campaign advances.

Minera IRL Announces Additional Gold Prospect at Corihuarmi Minera IRL Limited announced that ongoing geotechnical efforts have identified a new exploration target located within the concessions of the Company’s producing Corihuarmi Gold Mine (“Corihuarmi”). Corihuarmi started commercial production in 2008 based on an initial feasibility study completed in 2006. With an original estimated life span of only four years, Corihuarmi continues to generate significant revenue and cash flow, with production during 2021 of almost 25,000 ounces of gold from the project’s 9,830 hectares of mining concessions. Recently, the Company has focused its exploration efforts on a promising prospect area named Chantal (“Chantal”), located at the northwest limit of the current operating area at the mine. Chantal has been subject to preliminary mapping, sampling and analysis work, and has produced favorable initial results. This has triggered the Company’s decision to pursue additional exploratory activities in this area as part of its plan to further extend the estimated life of Corihuarmi. The Company expects to provide more details on these efforts as they progress. Reported Earnings • Aug 13

Minera IRL Limited Provides Additional Context for its Decision to Enter into, and to Extend its Memorandum of Understanding with Corporación Financiera de Desarrollo S.A Further to its press release of September 29, 2020, Minera IRL Limited provided additional context for its decision to enter into, and to extend, its Memorandum of Understanding (the "MOU") with Corporación Financiera de Desarrollo S.A., ("COFIDE") which has recently been extended until October 28, 2020. In November/December 2019, COFIDE, under new management, filed in Peruvian Courts a motion for the annulment of the arbitration award, a process that could take as long as forty-eight (48) months to resolve. Immediately thereafter, in an effort to resolve the matters that had not been resolved by the arbitration award, the parties entered into the MOU. The parties undertook to negotiate in good faith within a 90-day term their respective obligations under the Bridge Loan and the Award, to define the conditions of any remaining debt and agreed to a standstill on any additional legal action. The MOU also provided that, once the parties reached agreement, COFIDE would withdraw its filing for annulment of the Arbitration Award that is still pending before the Courts in Peru. The onset of Covid-19, the declaration of National Emergency by the Peruvian Government and the closing of all non-essential activities in Peru made it impossible to achieve the original deadline. In June 2020, the parties signed an extension to the MOU for ninety (90) additional days, ending September 28, and they achieved important progress, but given the continuing National Emergency and other circumstances of local political nature (not attributable to the Company), the MOU deadline has now been extended until October 28, 2020. The Company has sought a term of no less than two years for final maturity, with a sufficient grace period to be able to obtain third-party financing for the development and construction of the Ollachea Project. The possibility to pre-pay the remaining debt is a priority for both parties. However, desire for a two-year extension of the Bridge Loan is one of the primary reasons for the last extension of the MOU, as COFIDE desires to confirm that the Ollachea project is still financially sound given the passage of time and that there has been a request for extension of the Bridge Loan. The Company believes,
given considerably higher gold prices, that the financial viability of Ollachea has actually improved.
