Orosur Mining Inc. (OMI)
London, United Kingdom–(Newsfile Corp. – September 15, 2026) – Orosur Mining Inc. (TSXV: OMI) (AIM: OMI) (“Orosur” or the “Company“), is pleased to announce an update on the progress of exploration activities at the Company’s exploration project at Anzá in Colombia (“Anzá” or the “Project”). Anzá – Colombia These titles and applications are owned 100% by two Colombian companies, Minera Anzá, and Minera Monte Aguila, both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. Since acquiring 100% control of the Project, the Company has focussed its attention on three prospects:
Figure 1. Anzá Project Location To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: El Cedro Work on the area began some years before Orosur’s tenure, when Anglo American undertook reconnaissance mapping and sampling, identifying a highly prospective gold/copper porphyry system. An extensive area of anomalous soil geochemistry was delineated, as well as channel samples and rock chip samples with assays up to 10g/t Au and 2% Cu. No drilling was undertaken. The prospect did not progress until late 2021, when the Company’s previous JV partner MMA, re-entered the area to carry out mapping, sampling and ground geophysics that largely confirmed Anglo American’s previous work and mapped two large dioritic intrusions and associated hydrothermal systems within a broad N-S structural corridor. No drilling was undertaken.

El Cedro location To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Post resumption of control of the Project in November 2024, the Company completed larger scale surface mapping programs, geochemical surveys and drone mounted magnetic surveys, focussing on identifying structures and hydrothermal features proximal to the intrusions that could have the potential for higher grade metal accumulations. First drilling commenced at the El Cedro system on August 26th, 2026. The first drill hole at El Cedro (CED001) was positioned on the SE flank of the northern intrusion, close to the major structures that divide the northern and southern intrusions and are viewed as having controlled the emplacement of these systems and subsequent hydrothermal development. The multiple objectives of CED001 were to test the flanks of the northern intrusion for potential intrusion related alteration that might produce wider scale mineralisation, and to intersect possible down dip extensions of multiple high grade vein systems that had been exposed in the adjacent creek system (Figure 3).
Figure 3. El Cedro, CED001 Plan To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Assays for the first 61.35m have been received, with the entire interval being mineralised, for a composite intersection of 61.35m at 0.93g/t Au. The final sample of this assayed interval returned 1.25g/t Au.
Table 1. Intersection This zone also returned anomalous copper, however at levels deemed below economic significance. Shallow Zone Early logging has identified brecciated rocks containing porphyritic igneous and host-rock fragments affected by secondary biotite alteration and subsequent quartz-feldspar-related veining. More detailed logging subsequently recognized zones of secondary biotite, magnetite and pyrrhotite, locally associated with strong silicification and repeated millimeter-scale veining. The geological relationships observed to date are interpreted to indicate a multi-stage intrusive-hydrothermal system, with an early high-temperature alteration event subsequently affected by repeated fracturing, brecciation, silicification and sulphide-bearing fluid flow.

Figure 5. Interpreted section, CED001 To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: At roughly 99m downhole, CED001 entered a wide zone of polymetallic veining, demonstrating strongly silicified rocks containing abundant quartz-carbonate-sulphide veins containing pyrrhotite, pyrite, galena, sphalerite and locally chalcopyrite, within a broader alteration halo.

Figure 8. CED001_108.5m polymetallic structure composed of galena, pyrite, sphalerite, and chalcopyrite. The zone is sheared and displays a brecciated texture. To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: These deeper intervals display a notable increase in vein and veinlet density, being more closely comparable to the gold-bearing polymetallic veins observed at surface than to the alteration assemblage associated within the currently assayed upper interval. Channel sampling of the surface veins upon which CED001 was targeted returned values of up to 8.83 g/t Au (Figure 5), however the veins interpreted to have been intersected in this current zone, were the lowest grade of those at surface, at less than 0.5g/t Au, suggesting that vein scale and tenor may increase substantially with depth.
Figure 9. Hand sample and outcrop photographs of mineralised structures identified at surface at El Cedro, with channel sample results from the site: CH101376 – 4.21 g/t Au; CH101377 – 8.83 g/t Au; CH101373 – 2.31 g/t Au. To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: The vertical projection of the higher-grade surface veins are interpreted to be potentially intersected at various points deeper in the hole (Figure 5), however given the increased depth extrapolation, uncertainty increases substantially. Samples from 61.3m to 86m have been submitted for assay this week, with results expected in the near term. Further samples, including those from the vein zone, should be submitted to the laboratory later this week. CED001 is currently at 130m. The hole is planned to extend to 500m and is expected to be completed by the end of the month.

Drill Hole Details – El Cedro Prospect
Drill Hole Details – APTA prospect * About Orosur Mining Inc. Qualified Persons Statement Orosur Mining Inc. staff follow standard operating and quality assurance procedures to ensure that sampling techniques and sample results meet international reporting standards. Drill core is split in half over widths that vary between 0.3m and 2m, depending upon the geological domain. One half is kept on site in the Minera Anzá core storage facility in the case of the Anza Project, or on site in temporary racks in the case of the El Pantano Project, with the other sent for assay. Industry standard QAQC protocols are put in place with approximately 10% of total submitted samples being blanks, repeats or Certified Reference Materials (CRMs). Samples for holes PEP-001 to PEP-011 were sent to the Medellin preparation facility of ALS Colombia Ltd, and then to the ISO 9001 certified ALS Chemex laboratory in Lima, Peru. Samples from PEP-012 and MAP-106 onwards are sent to Medellin laboratory of Actlabs for preparation and fire assay, with some sample then sent to the Canadian Actlabs facility for multi element assay 30 gram nominal weight samples are then subject to fire assay and AAS analysis for gold with gravimetric re-finish for overlimit assays of >5 g/t. ICP-MS Ultra-Trace level multi-element four-acid digest analyses may also undertaken for such elements as silver, copper, lead and zinc, etc. Gold intersections are reported using a lower cut-off of 0.3g/t Au over 3m. Intersections are quoted as downhole thicknesses. True geological thicknesses are unknown.
