About Aris Mining
Aris Mining is a Canadian gold mining company focused on South America. The Company operates the Segovia
and Marmato underground gold mines in Colombia, which together produced approximately 257,000 ounces of
gold in 2025. Aris Mining is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange under the
symbol ARIS.
The Company is advancing expansion projects at Segovia and Marmato that are expected to increase annual gold
production to approximately 500,000 ounces1, driven by the ramp-up at Segovia following the installation of the
second mill, which was completed in June 2025, and construction of the new Marmato bulk mine and CIP plant,
with first gold expected in Q4 2026.
Aris Mining’s portfolio supports a longer-term objective of approximately 1 million ounces of annual gold
production2. Key projects include the high-grade Soto Norte gold project in Colombia, where environmental
studies are being finalized for submission in Q2 2026 to initiate the licensing process, and the Toroparu gold
project in Guyana, where a Prefeasibility Study is in progress and a construction decision is expected in early
2027.

_________________________
1 Reflects expected steady-state annual gold production run-rates of approximately 300 koz at Segovia and 200 koz at Marmato
following completion and ramp-up of the respective expansion projects. For more information, please refer to the Company’s news
releases dated June 30, 2025 regarding the Segovia expansion and March 12, 2025 regarding the Marmato expansion.
2 Includes potential production estimates from Toroparu, which is based on a preliminary economic assessment effective October 21,
2025, which contemplates a 7.0 Mtpa operation over a 21.3-year mine life with average annual gold production of approximately 235
koz at a base case gold price of US$3,000/oz. The preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature and includes inferred
mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would
enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.
Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. There can be no assurance that the
projected production will be achieved. In the case of Soto Norte and Toroparu, such production also remains subject to obtaining all
necessary permits and to formal construction decisions by the Company.
