Highlights
Zgounder Mine Exploration1
Significant mineralization confirmed at depth toward the granite contact, with extension of the open pit and to the west near the fault:
Hole DZG-SF-24-228 intercepted 3,794 grams per tonne (“g/t”) silver (“Ag”) over 10.0 metres (“m”)
Hole DZG-SF-24-412 intercepted 3,279 g/t Ag over 8.0 m, including 6,425 g/t Ag over 4.0 m.
Hole ZG-SF-24-259 intercepted 1,082 g/t Ag over 8.5 m, including 2,133 g/t Ag over 2.7 m.
Hole ZG-SF-25-290 intercepted 823 g/t Ag over 10.0 m and 2,055 g/t Ag over 4.5 m.
Hole ZG-RC-24-413 intercepted 1,001 g/t Ag over 28.0 m, including 2,787 g/t Ag over 7.0 m.
Hole ZG-RC-24-452 intercepted 1,364 g/t Ag over 14.0 m, including 2,433 g/t Ag over 6.0 m.
Completed 28,495 m of drilling at Zgounder near-mine and regionally exceeding full-year target of
20,000–25,000 m.
Six (6) exploration permits added expanding the Zgounder exploration footprint to 378.8 square kilometres (“km2”)
Net Reserve and Resource Growth – December 2025 update2
P&P Reserves: 73 Moz Ag at 145 g/t (15.7 million tonnes (“Mt”)), a 4% increase in silver ounces (“oz”) from the prior estimate, net of depletion, with reserves estimated using a silver price assumption of $26/oz.
Measure & Indicated Resources (“M&I Resources”)2: 100 Moz Ag at 165 g/t Ag (18.9 Mt), a 5% increase in total Ag ounces from the prior estimate, net of depletion.
Boumadine Exploration1,3,4
Significant mineralized intercepts in the Boumadine Main Trend:
BOU-MP25-087 intercepted 2,323 g/t silver equivalent (“AgEq”) over 15.0 m (3.31 g/t Au, 1,900 g/t Ag, 4.8% zinc (“Zn”), 1.8% lead (“Pb”) and 0.03% copper (“Cu”), including 3,858 g/t AgEq over 8.7 m (5.37 g/t Au, 3,208 g/t Ag, 6.3% Zn, 2.8% Pb and 0.05% Cu).
BOU-RC25-026 intercepted 3,336 g/t AgEq over 6.0 m (37.03 g/t Au, 334 g/t Ag, 2.8% Zn, 1.0% Pb and 0.2% Cu), including 8,163 g/t AgEq over 2.0 m (102.38 g/t Au, 94 g/t Ag, 2.4% Zn, 1.0% Pb and 0.1% Cu).
Extension of Tizi Zone to 2.2 km with intersection such as:
BOU-DD25-550 intercepted 272 g/t AgEq over 4.6 m (1.33 g/t Au, 101 g/t Ag, 1.6% Zn, 1.1% Pb and 0.03% Cu).
Updated Mineral Resources Estimate (“MRE”) 2,3 – February 2025:
Indicated Mineral Resource: 5.2 Mt at 91 g/t Ag, 2.78 g/t Au, 2.8% Zn and 0.85% Pb containing an estimated 15.1 Moz of Ag, 449 thousand ounces (“koz”) of Au, 145 thousand tonnes (“kt”) of Zn and 44 kt of Pb, an increase of 19% from the prior estimate.
Inferred Mineral Resource: 29.2 Mt containing an estimated 76.8 Moz of Ag, 2.4 Moz of Au, 615 kt of Zn and 237 kt of Pb.
Upside Potential: The updated MRE was effective February 24, 2025 and does not include most of the 2025 drilling campaign, highlighting potential for additional resources.
10 exploration permits added, expanding the Boumadine exploration footprint to 340.7 km2
Completion of 569 drillholes totalling 150,325 m within the Boumadine main trend and other targets
