ARIS MINING CONFIRMS INCIDENT AT AN EXTERNAL MINE PARTNER
OPERATION AT SEGOVIA
Vancouver, Canada, September 23, 2025 – Aris Mining Corporation (Aris Mining or the Company) (TSX: ARIS; NYSE-
A: ARMN) confirms an incident that occurred on September 22 at the La Reliquia Mine, a formalized third -party
operation located within Aris Mining’s Segovia title, but outside of Aris Mining’s infrastructure.
A collapse occurred in La Reliquia’s main shaft access, with 23 workers underground at the time, including five Aris
Mining employees carrying out monthly review functions. All workers are in good health, regular telephone
communication has been maintained, and food, water, and ventilation are being delivered safely while rescue work
progresses.
Rescue operations are well advanced and being carried out through the coordinated efforts of Aris Mining’s Brigade
of Prevention and Emergency Control and La Reliquia’s workforce. Aris Mining’s technical staff and contractors are
supporting rescue efforts. The families of our employees have been informed directly and are being kept up to date
throughout the process. Based on current progress, we expect the workers to be brought safely to surface within the
next 24 hours.
The La Reliquia Mine has been a partner of the Segovia Operations since 2014 with about 60 employees and provides
a small portion of mill feed that supports overall gold production.
Neil Woodyer, CEO, commented “ The safety of our people is always our highest priority. We commend the Aris
Mining rescue team for their professionalism and swift, precise response. We will provide updates as the situation is
fully resolved.”
