Jody Kuzenko, President & CEO of Torex, stated:
"We continue to enhance and extend our long-term production profile through a systematic approach to exploration and resource drilling which has, once again, added new reserves and reinforced the underlying, long-term, resource potential of Morelos. Drilling at ELG Underground has added close to two years to the reserve life of the deposit while the resumption of drilling at Media Luna mid-year offset most of the depletion resulting from the better than expected mine ramp up. At Media Luna West, an inaugural Inferred Resource of 506 thousand ounces gold equivalent ("koz AuEq") was delineated with an average grade of 5.11 grams per tonne ("gpt") AuEq.
"Mineral reserves for Morelos increased 4% prior to depletion (5% decrease net of depletion), with gains from drilling success at ELG Underground and Media Luna partially offsetting depletion and the reductions in reserves associated with updates to the geological model at Media Luna North. The acquisition of Los Reyes added 2,047 koz AuEq of Indicated Resources and 765 koz AuEq of Inferred Resources to the Company's overall resource inventory. With the intent of utilizing a consistent approach to resource modelling across our expanded asset base, we have aligned the application of the "RPEEE" guideline (reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction) at Morelos with how it has been applied at Los Reyes.
"With record investment in exploration and resource drilling of $77 million in 2026, Torex is well-positioned to build off the drilling success of the last few years as we focus on enhancing and extending the production profile at our flagship Morelos Complex, advancing and de-risking Los Reyes, and surfacing value across our early-stage exploration properties."
AuEq mineral reserves and mineral resources take into account respective metal prices and metallurgical recoveries for gold ("Au"), silver ("Ag"), and copper ("Cu") by deposit within each of the underlying properties. Unless otherwise specified, AuEq formulas for mineral reserves and mineral resources can be found in Tables 7 and 8 of this release.
Metal prices used to estimate mineral reserves and mineral resources for Morelos have increased modestly relative to the metal price assumptions previously assumed ($1,650/oz Au versus $1,500/oz Au for reserves and $1,800/oz Au versus $1,650/oz Au for resources). Mineral resources for Los Reyes are unchanged and in line with the estimate (effective date of October 15, 2024) previously reported by Prime Mining Corp., including metal prices of $1,950/oz Au and $25.24/oz Ag.
Detailed breakdowns of mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates can be found in Tables 7 and 8 of this press release. The detailed breakdowns include tonnes, grade, and contained metal estimates by metal, as well as notes accompanying the applicable mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates.
MORELOS
Total Proven and Probable Reserves for Morelos are estimated at 4,839 koz AuEq at an average grade of 3.80 gpt, representing a 5% decrease relative to year-end 2024 reserves of 5,096 koz AuEq at 3.92 gpt. Prior to ore processed, Proven and Probable Reserves increased 207 koz AuEq (+4%), primarily due to ongoing reserve growth at ELG Underground and delineation of new reserves at Media Luna with the commencement of infill drilling towards the middle of the year following completion of the Media Luna Project.

Offsetting the reserves gains were refinements to the Media Luna North geological model (carried out in conjunction with the internal feasibility study) which has led to improved confidence in the underlying model, greater certainty regarding the location of non-mineralized dikes, and revised stope shapes. The resulting impact was an 8% decline in AuEq contained reserves and a 10% increase in reserve tonnes at Media Luna North.

Total Inferred Resources are estimated at 2,906 koz AuEq at an average grade of 4.10 gpt, representing a 30% increase relative to the 2,243 koz AuEq at 4.22 gpt at year-end 2024. The increase in Inferred Resources reflects drilling success at Media Luna North and ELG Underground as well as an inaugural Inferred Resource at Media Luna West of 506 koz AuEq at a grade of 5.11 gpt.
In addition to the impact of drilling, depletion, and model updates on mineral resource estimates for Morelos, the Company made adjustments within the application of RPEEE in estimating resources. The application of RPEEE at Morelos now aligns with how RPEEE is applied at Los Reyes.
Mineral resource estimates prepared for open pit and underground mining methods are constrained for purposes of RPEEE within potentially mineable shapes. Open pit mining methods are constrained using optimized surfaces based on operational information above a cut-off grade and underground mining methods are reported within a potentially mineable shape above a cut-off grade. In cases where potentially mineable volumes contain material with grades below the stated cut-off grade, this material has also been included in the mineral resource estimate. This 'must take' material added tonnes and lowered resource grades versus previous resource estimates for Morelos. The application of RPEEE is aligned with CIM best practice guidelines. The direct application of RPEEE does not impact mineral reserves, which already account for economic extraction and incorporate dilution.
LOS REYES
Torex acquired the Los Reyes project in Sinaloa, Mexico in 2025 through the acquisition of Prime Mining. The mineral resource estimate for Los Reyes is unchanged from the mineral resource estimate previously published by Prime Mining (effective date of October 15, 2024).

Notes to Table:
- Refer to Table 8 for additional disclosure on Indicated and Inferred Resources for Los Reyes.
AuEq values incorporated into the Los Reyes resource estimate follow industry best practices, are aligned with the methodology applied at Morelos, and take into account underlying metal prices and recoveries for each deposit and processing route.
A preliminary economic assessment on Los Reyes is on track for completion by mid-2026 and will be based on the most recent resource model. The Company plans to commence a prefeasibility study on Los Reyes later this year, which is expected to be based on an updated resource model incorporating planned future drilling as well as a review of underlying metal prices and other parameters following completion of the preliminary economic assessment.
METAL PRICE ASSUMPTIONS
Metal prices for Au, Ag, and Cu used to estimate mineral reserves and mineral resources for Morelos have modestly increased relative to prior assumptions. Metal prices used to estimate mineral resources at Los Reyes are unchanged.

The Company will continue to evaluate opportunities to unlock value from its underlying resource base (including reviewing cut-off grades) with a focus on maximizing margins and mine life while targeting to maintain annual production of at least 420 koz AuEq beyond 2030 at Morelos1 and maximizing the value of Los Reyes. One potential evaluation underway is looking to increase the size of the processing plant at Morelos either through debottlenecking alternatives or expansion of the flotation circuit.

The five-year outlook assumes Au production of 300,000 to 345,000 oz, Ag production of 2,500 to 2,800 koz, and Cu production of 70 to 75 Mlb. Metal prices used to estimate AuEq production are $4,000/oz Au, $45/oz Ag and $4.90/lb Cu. AuEq = Au (oz) + 1,000 x ($45/$4,000) x Ag (koz) + 1,000,000 x ($4.90/$4,000) x Cu (Mlb).

Notes to accompany the mineral resource table:
- Mineral resources were prepared in accordance with the CIM Definition Standards (2014) and Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Best Practice guidelines (2019).
- Gold equivalent ("AuEq") of total mineral resources is established from combined contributions of the various deposits. AuEq estimates account for metal prices and metallurgical recoveries.
- Mineral resources are inclusive of mineral reserves (excluding stockpiles). Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
- Numbers may not add due to rounding.
- Mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing, or other relevant issues.
