CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING RESULTS OF PRELIMINARY
ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT
The results of the PEA prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 titled "Carangas Deposit - Preliminary Economic Assessment"
with an effective date of November 15, 2024, and prepared by certain qualified persons associated with RPMGlobal are preliminary in nature
and are intended to provide an initial assessment of the Project's economic potential and development options of the Project. The PEA
mine schedule and economic assessment includes numerous assumptions and is based on both indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources. Inferred
resources 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 preliminary economic assessments described herein will be achieved
or that the PEA results will be realized. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by geology, environmental, permitting,
legal, title, socio-political, marketing or other relevant issues. Mineral resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated
economic viability. Additional exploration will be required to potentially upgrade the classification of the Inferred Mineral Resources
to be considered in future advanced studies. RPMGlobal (mineral resource, infrastructure, tailings, water management, environmental and
financial analysis) was contracted to conduct the PEA in cooperation with Moose Mountain Technical Services (mining), and JJ Metallurgical
Services (Metallurgy). The qualified persons for the PEA for the purposes of NI 43-101 are Mr. Marcelo del Giudice, FAusIMM, Principal
Metallurgist with RPMGlobal, Mr. Pedro Repetto, SME, P.E., Principal Civil/Geotechnical Engineer with RPMGlobal, Mr. Gonzalo Rios, FAusIMM,
Executive Consultant - ESG with RPMGlobal, Mr. Jinxing Ji, P.Eng., Metallurgist with JJ Metallurgical Services, and Mr. Marc Schulte,
P.Eng., Mining Engineer with Moose Mountain Technical Services., in addition to Mr. Anderson Candido, FAusIMM, Principal Geologist with
RPMGlobal who estimated the Mineral Resources. All qualified persons for the PEA have reviewed the disclosure of the PEA herein. The PEA
is based on the MRE, which was reported on September 5, 2023. The effective date of the MRE is August 25, 2023. Mineral Resources are
constrained by an optimized pit shell at a metal price of US$23.00/oz Ag, US$1,900.00/oz Au, US$0.95/lb Pb, US$1.25/lb Zn, recovery of
90% Ag, 98% Au, 83% Pb, 58% Zn and Cut-off grade of 40 g/t AgEq. Assumptions made to derive a cut-off grade included mining costs, processing
costs, and recoveries were obtained from comparable industry situations.
