ARIS MINING ANNOUNCES RECORD SEGOVIA OPERATIONS
GOLD PRODUCTION
Vancouver, Canada, September 11, 2023 – Aris Mining Corporation (Aris Mining or the Company) (TSX:
ARIS; OTCQX: TPRFF) announces record gold production of 19,406 ounces at its Segovia Operations in
Colombia during August 2023, the highest monthly production since the expansion of the Maria Dama
processing plant in 2022. This is a result of our efforts in optimization and improvement and represents a
24% increase over the average gold production rate for the initial seven months of 2023.
Neil Woodyer, CEO of Aris Mining, commented “ Aris Mining has successfully implemented a significant
business re-organization in Colombia and we are very pleased to demonstrate the benefits of this work. As
noted in our August 16, 2023 news release, the ongoing 2023 exploration program at our Segovia
Operations has encountered 32 different mineralized vein structures near active mining operations, which
is expected to continue Segovia’s history of growth and reserve replacement. Aris Mining has a strong
balance sheet and we believe we are on track to produce approximately 400,000 ounces of gold in Colombia
in 2026, based on steady-state production from our Segovia Operations and the expanded Marmato Mine,
currently under construction.”
Chart 1: Monthly Gold Production (in ounces), Segovia Operations
During August 2023, the Maria Dama gold plant at the Segovia Operations processed 55,328 tonnes with
an average gold grade of 11.7 grams per tonne and achieved a gold recovery rate of 95.5%. These results
represent a 9% increase in the amount of ore milled and a 17% increase in gold grade compared to the
average performance over the prior seven months, and is primarily attributed to the completion of the
crusher repairs, the resolution of issues related to the nationwide limited supply of explosives, and access
to higher grade stopes . In addition, the Company processed an average of 96 tonnes per day at its
polymetallic plant, which resulted in the production of approximately 148 tonnes of zinc concentrate and
