Camino Signs Contract to Commence Copper Exploration Drilling

in December at Los Chapitos, Peru

Vancouver, December 11, 2023 – Camino Minerals Corporation (TSXV: COR) (OTC: CAMZF) (WKN:

A116E1) (“Camino” or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a contract

with Geotecnica Y Construcciones Del Peru S.A.C. (“GCP”), to complete 2,000 meters of core drilling

at its Los Chapitos Copper Project (“Los Chapitos” or the “Project”) in Peru. GCP is a Peruvian drilling

company with a successful track record of drilling programs in Peru since 2011 . The drilling rig will

mobilize to Los Chapitos on December 18th, with the drilling campaign expected to commence on

December 22, 2023 . The upcoming campaign is fully funded through a CAD$1.5 million earn-in

payment by Camino’s exploration partner at Los Chapitos , Nittetsu Mining Co., Ltd. (see news

release dated November 23, 2023).

“The commencement of drilling in December at Los Chapitos sets a strong start to our planned

exploration programs in Peru through 2024,” said Jay Chmelauskas, President and CEO of Camino.

“The Los Chapitos copper property is thought to be part of a major IOCG copper system, and this

drilling program is designed to grow the project by making new discoveries and potentially

expanding known copper mineralized zones.”

The drilling campaign will focus on targeting additional copper oxide targets and potential copper

sulphide mineralization. This campaign will generally focus on copper mineralization targets along

the Diva Structural Fault that extends for over 8km, which is one of several mineralized trends at

Los Chapitos (see Figure 1 and Figure 2).
