Collective Mining Discovers a Gold-Copper Porphyry System at the San Antonio Project by Intersecting 290.20 Metres at 0.58 g/t Gold, 0.17% Copper, 3 g/t Silver and 70 ppm Molybdenum

Core Viewpoint - The company is advancing its drilling program at the San Antonio Project, with significant potential for discovering a copper-gold rich porphyry system, particularly at the Pound target, where drilling is set to intensify in 2025 [2][5][9]. Drilling Program - The company has nine drill rigs operating as part of a fully funded 70,000-metre drill program for 2025, with two rigs at the San Antonio Project and seven at the Guayabales Project [1]. - Two additional deep capacity rigs are being mobilized to the Guayabales Project, expected to begin testing the high-grade Ramp Zone in early Q3 2025 [1]. San Antonio Project Highlights - Detailed surface prospecting and drilling have increased the potential of the San Antonio Project to host a copper-gold rich porphyry system [2]. - The Pound target covers an area of 650 metres x 550 metres and remains open for further expansion, with previous drilling in 2021 showing promising results [5][9]. - The SAC-11 hole intersected 290 metres of gold-copper rich porphyry vein stockwork mineralization, with assays highlighting 290.20 metres at 0.84 g/t gold equivalent [5][6]. Assay Results - SAC-10 returned 353.85 metres at 0.51 g/t gold equivalent, including 77.05 metres at 1.01 g/t gold equivalent [6]. - The assays from SAC-11 included significant intervals of mineralization, with notable grades of gold and copper [5][6]. Future Plans - The company plans to drill test four additional porphyry targets (Pound, Real, COP, and Euro) in 2025, with the Real target located 400 metres northwest of Pound [9]. - The next phase of the drilling program at the Trap Main Zone is scheduled to begin in H2 2025 [10]. Company Background - Collective Mining Ltd. is focused on gold, silver, copper, and tungsten exploration in Caldas, Colombia, with options to acquire 100% interests in two projects within an established mining camp [12]. - The company is listed on both the NYSE and TSX under the trading symbol "CNL" [13].
