INVENTUS REPORTS 4.10 GPT GOLD AND 1.78 METRE AVERAGE IN 30 DRILL
HOLES WITHIN 6 METRES OF SURFACE AT THE 10,000-TONNE TRENCH 1 BULK
SAMPLE SITE
TORONTO, ONTARIO (July 7, 2025) – Inventus Mining Corp. (TSXV: IVS) (“Inventus” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce final assays from grade-control drilling of the 10,000-tonne
Trench 1 Bulk Sample Site on its 100%-owned Pardo Gold Project, located 65 km northeast of
Sudbury, Ontario.
Highlights
• Assay results from grade-control drilling at the Trench 1 bulk sample site have identified
approximately 10,000 tonnes within 6 metres of surface and returned a weighted average
grade and thickness of 4.10 gpt gold and 1.78 metres.
• The top 10 drill intercepts from the Trench 1 Bulk Sample Site include:
12.59 gpt gold over 1.79 metres
11.31 gpt gold over 1.76 metres
11.45 gpt gold over 1.72 metres
8.76 gpt gold over 1.92 metres
7.93 gpt gold over 1.97 metres
5.28 gpt gold over 2.70 metres
5.20 gpt gold over 2.23 metres
3.02 gpt gold over 2.95 metres
4.09 gpt gold over 2.04 metres
4.31 gpt gold over 1.90 metres
Trench 1 Grade-Control Drilling
Grade-control drilling at the Trench 1 Site consisted of 35 shallow holes targeting the flat -lying
gold mineralization within 6 metres of surface (Figure 1 and Table 1). Holes were drilled at 7.5-
metre centres to identify approximately 10,000 tonnes for the second planned bulk sample site.
Final assay results within the planned pit area had a weighted average grade and thickness of
4.10 gpt gold and 1.78 metres (see Figure 2 and Table 2).
Drilling Update
Grade-control drilling is at the Trench 1 North Bulk Sample Site, consisting of 42 holes to outline
an additional 10,000 + tonnes north of Trench 1 site reported in this release , is now complete
(Figure 1). Results from this drilling will be released once they become available. The drill has
now moved to the Trench 1 South Bulk Sample Site to define an additional 10,000 tonnes before
moving to Eastern Reef where our last planned 10,000 -tonne bulk sample will be located.

Following the completion of the grade-control drilling, the drill will commence Phase 2 resource
drilling, which is part of the Company’s larger plan to extend the gold mineralization in preparation
for a maiden resource estimate on the property.
Bulk Sample Update
The bulk sampling program is on schedule with the first bulk sample from 007 North (5,000-tonne)
having an expected processing date in late July. This will be followed by the Trench 1 Bulk Sample
(10,000-tonne) from late August until early September. Additional updates and results of the
program will be provided as the program advances.
Wesley Whymark, President and Head of Exploration comments: “When we launched this
bulk sample program, our target was 3 gpt gold. With results from our second bulk sample site
now in hand, it’s clear we’ve exceeded those expectations. Having now secured a processing
path through McEwen Mining’s Stock Mill, we’re more confident than ever in the potential of the
Pardo Project. This program is a major step toward de -risking the project and showcasing the
strong economics of surface mining our near-surface gold mineralization.”

Qualified Person
The Qualified Person responsible for the technical content of this news release is Inventus’
President and Head of Exploration, Wesley Whymark, P.Geo., who has reviewed and approved
the technical disclosure in this news release on behalf of the Company.
Technical Information
Drill core samples collected by Inventus and described in this news release were subject to a
variety of QA/QC protocols. PQ Size drill core was placed in core boxes by the contracted drill
crew and then transported by Inventus personnel to a secure processing facility in Sudbury,
3
Ontario. The core was then reviewed with core metreage blocks checked to verify core integrity,
recovery and geologically logged with samples marked. Whole c ore samples were then
photographed and inserted into a clean plastic bag with a sample tag. Certified reference
materials were inserted into the sample stream at a rate of no less than 10%. Samples were then
transported in secure sealed bags with security tags for preparation by Agat Labs in Thunder Bay,
Ontario. All samples reported were crushed in their entirety to 80% passing 2 mm. A subsample
comprising 2 kg was riffle split and pulverized to 80% 75 microns ( -200 mesh) and one 300 - to
500-g subsample was riffle split into a jar. The Jar was then shipped to Paragon Geochemical in
Nevada, USA for gold analysis by PhotonAssay. Both Agat Labs and Paragon Geochemical are
ISO 17025:2017 accredited geochemical testing laboratories.
