Mundoro Announces 2024 Portfolio Highlights,
2025 Outlook and Corporate Update
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 3, 2025) -
Mundoro Capital Inc. (TSXV:
MUN) (OTCQB: MUNMF) (
www.mundoro.com
)
("
Mundoro
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to
summarize key achievements from 2024 and outline strategic priorities for 2025.
Key Highlights from 2024:
Advanced Exploration at BHP-Mundoro Projects, Serbia:
Completed ground AMT survey, rock sampling, and soil sampling programs at South Timok.
Conducted IP and bulk density measurements at Borsko.
Developed and approved a drilling proposal for the Trstenik project.
Vectoring in on Large-Scale Porphyry Targets within Mundoro controlled South Timok
Portfolio in Serbia:
Announced five prospective porphyry exploration targets at the Trstenik project.
Identified four highly prospective porphyry exploration targets at the Tilva Rosh prospect
area.
Dos Cabezas, Arizona: Drill Results Confirm Porphyry Potential, Partnership
Opportunities:
Announced drill results from two drill holes, intersecting Cu-Au-Mo and Cu-Mo-Ag
mineralization.
Conducted site visits with potential partners to advance exploration and drilling.
Advancing Exploration of the Arizona Projects:
Commenced fieldwork to generate new drill targets at Copperopolis.
Refined the drill targets at Mescal Canyon and Mineral Park while generating new targets for
drill testing at Elma, all which are within the extensive land package of the Dos Cabezas
project.
2025 Outlook
Mundoro's primary focus in the coming year will be on advancing high-potential targets across our
wholly-owned projects with the objective of securing additional joint venture partnerships and concurrently
the execution of exploration programs for our partners, BHP and JOGMEC.
A key element of our
strategy involves ongoing generative exploration to identify and develop compelling copper and/or gold
targets for drill testing. This will expand our portfolio and attract a broader range of potential partners,
thereby increasing exploration and enhancing the opportunity for discovery. We remain committed to
building a robust pipeline of projects, leveraging our expertise in generative exploration, and creating
value through partnerships. Furthermore, we will continue to review strategic opportunities that align with
our core strengths and enhance shareholder value.
Advancing Exploration at the BHP-Mundoro Projects in Serbia to Drill Testing
South Timok
Mundoro has advanced exploration activities across the Ponor, Lipovica, Orlovac and Vitanovac
licenses through a comprehensive program that included a project-scale ground Audio-Magnetotelluric
(AMT) survey, targeted rock and soil sampling, and reconnaissance mapping. These efforts were
designed to enhance the geological understanding of the project area. In 2025, the company plans to
extend the magnetic, gravity and AMT surveys over an addition to the project area while simultaneously
conducting follow-up geophysical surveys on anomalies identified during the initial project-wide survey.
Borsko
To facilitate target refinement, the company conducted geochemical analysis, Induced Polarization (IP)
surveys, and bulk density measurements on drill core from Target 1. Additionally, structural interpretation
of the Borsko target area was initiated. In 2025, the company plans to conduct Green Rock analysis,
further AMT geophysical surveys, and a reinterpretation of the targets. To date, Target 1 remains a
compelling prospect for a porphyry deposit.
Trstenik
Results from the 2024 exploration program at the Trstenik Project identified five porphyry exploration
targets. These targets are the Southwest, Southeast, North-Central, Central, and North zones, that each
represent exploration potential for porphyry intrusions.
The Company has submitted drill permit
applications for each target, marking the next step towards unlocking their value through future drilling.
The exploration team is actively advancing the North-Central zone to drill-ready status in order to drill test
in Q1-2025. A planned 4,700-meter, four-hole drilling program will be the first phase of testing in this
prospective area, focused on testing for a porphyry intrusion.

Vectoring in on Large-Scale Porphyry Targets within Mundoro controlled South Timok
Portfolio in Serbia
During 2024, Mundoro's exploration team recompiled and analyzed the exploration data collected from
two previous partnerships which collectively had spent C$14.4 million over the project area which is a
total of approximately 417 sq km.
As a result, the analysis identified highly prospective porphyry
exploration targets at the Tilva Rosh prospect area within Mundoro's 100%-owned licenses in Timok,
Serbia. As the work continues, targeting and analysis continues over the Markov Kamen area which has
also resulted in additional targets.
The targets exhibit geological features, mineralization styles, and
alteration patterns characteristic of porphyry and related high-sulphidation epithermal systems known in
the region such as the Bor deposit and the Cukaru Peki deposit. Over the course of the year, the
Company has presented the project to potential partners for the purpose of joint venturing.
Dos Cabezas, Arizona: Drill Results Confirm Porphyry Potential, Partnership Opportunities
Exploration to date has identified three target areas with outcropping alteration and mineralization
potentially associated with Laramide-age porphyry copper systems: Mescal Canyon, Mineral Park, and
Elma. Two additional undercover target areas, the Northwest Pediments and Southeast Pediments,
were identified along the apparent west-northwest trend of the Apache Pass Fault Zone.
Two drill holes were successfully completed at the project. The first hole, targeting the Mineral Park area,
reached a depth of 598 meters and encountered anomalous Cu-Au-Mo mineralization. The second hole,
in the Mescal Canyon area, reached a depth of 743.7 meters and intersected multiple zones of
anomalous Cu-Mo-Ag mineralization, with logged alteration and veining.
The Company is presenting the Dos Cabezas Project to potential partners for the purpose of joint
venture. Ongoing mapping and sample collection are planned in the Elma area to establish further drill
targets.
Picacho, Arizona: Focused on Partnering to test Porphyry Target
The Company intends to advance the identified porphyry targets to a drill-ready stage by securing the
necessary permits and presenting to potential partners. Once a partner is secured for this project, further
exploration plans would include expanding geophysical surveys, conducting follow up geochemical
analyses, and initiating targeted drilling programs to test the identified porphyry copper prospects.
Copperopolis, Arizona: Advancing Early Stage Exploration for Drill Targets
Fieldwork to generate target areas for drill testing has been underway since the second half of 2024 as
part of a reconnaissance exploration program. Exploration plans for 2025 include magnetic survey, high-
resolution photogrammetry, detailed mapping and soil sampling over areas of interest to identify
potential drill targets.
