Cautionary Statements – Forward-Looking
Information
Certain statements in this presentation constitute
forward-looking statements or forward-looking information within
the meaning of applicable securities laws ("forward-looking
statements"). Any statements that express or involve discussions
with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans,
projections, objectives, assumptions, potentials, future events or
performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as
"believes", "expects", "plans", "estimates" or "intends" or stating
that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would",
"might", "will", "are projected to" or "confident of" be taken or
achieved) are not statements of historical fact, but are
forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements herein relate to, among other
things, Orvana's ability to achieve improvement in free cash flow;
the ability to maintain expected mining rates and expected
throughput rates at El Valle Plant; the potential to extend the
mine life of El Valle and Don Mario beyond their current
life-of-mine estimates including specifically, but not limited to,
Orvana's ability to optimize its assets to deliver shareholder
value; estimates of future production (including without
limitation, production guidance), operating costs and capital
expenditures; mineral resource and reserve estimates; statements
and information regarding future feasibility studies and their
results; future transactions; future metal prices; the ability to
achieve additional growth and geographic diversification; and
future financial performance, including the ability to increase
cash flow and profits; future financing requirements; mine
development plans; and the possibility of the conversion of
inferred mineral resources to mineral reserves.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a
number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered
reasonable by the Company as of the date of such statements, are
inherently subject to significant business, economic and
competitive uncertainties and contingencies, which includes,
without limitation, as particularly set out in the notes
accompanying the Company's most recently filed financial
statements. The estimates and assumptions of the Company contained
or incorporated by reference in this news release, which may prove
to be incorrect, include, but are not limited to the various
assumptions set forth herein and in Orvana's most recently filed
Management's Discussion & Analysis and Annual Information Form
in respect of the Company's most recently completed fiscal year
(the "Company Disclosures") or as otherwise expressly incorporated
herein by reference as well as: there being no significant
disruptions affecting operations, whether due to labour
disruptions, supply disruptions, power disruptions, damage to
equipment or otherwise; permitting, development, operations,
expansion and acquisitions at El Valle, Don Mario and Taguas being
consistent with the Company's current expectations; political
developments in any jurisdiction in which the Company operates
being consistent with its current expectations; certain price
assumptions for gold, copper and silver; prices for key supplies
being approximately consistent with current levels; production and
cost of sales forecasts meeting expectations; the accuracy of the
Company's current mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates;
labour and materials costs increasing on a basis consistent with
Orvana's current expectations; and the availability of necessary
funds to execute the Company's plan. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, this news release also contains

applicable securities legislation, including, without limitation,
references to the results of the Company's exploration activities,
including but not limited to, drilling results and analyses,

for production decisions; permitting timelines and requirements;
exploration and planned exploration programs; and the Company's
general objectives and strategies.
A variety of inherent risks, uncertainties and factors, many
of which are beyond the Company's control, affect the operations,
performance and results of the Company and its business, and could
cause actual events or results to differ materially from estimated
or anticipated events or results expressed or implied by forward

ability to continue operations; and our ability to manage
challenges presented by such conditions; the general economic,
political and social impacts of the continuing conflict between
Russia and Ukraine, our ability to support the
sustainability of our business including through the development of
crisis management plans, increasing stock levels for key supplies,
monitoring of guidance from the medical community, and engagement
with local communities and authorities; fluctuations in the price
of gold, silver and copper; the need to recalculate estimates of
resources based on actual production experience; the failure to
achieve production estimates; variations in the grade of ore mined;
