OROCO RESOURCE COPR. PROVIDES FINANCING UPDATE

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Vancouver, B.C. – October 31st, 2025 – Oroco Resource Corp. (TSX-V: OCO, OTCQB: ORRCF)

confirms that the non-brokered private placement financing, announced on September 25, 2025, is

proceeding as planned and will be completed within the necessary regulatory timeframe. The Offering is

for up to 18,000,000 Units at a price of US$0.20 per Unit (for aggregate gross proceeds of up to US$3.6

million, with an anticipated minimum of US$2.0 million). Each Unit consists of one common share (a

“Unit Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (the “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant

entitles the holder to purchase one common share at US$0.30 within 24 months of the Unit issue date.

This financing was arranged to accommodate investment interest from local parties who are seen to be

strategic to the advancement of Oroco’s Santo Tomas Project, located in Northern Sinaloa, Mexico.

Commenting on the nature of this financing, Craig Dalziel, Oroco’s Executive Chairman, stated: “This

financing was conceived at the time that Faysal Rodriguez agreed to join Oroco’s Board of Directors and

was planned around his associated funding commitment to the Company. However, the involvement of a

director in such a financing required an immediate announcement that preceded the commitment of

certain additional participants whom the Company had hoped to include in the financing. With those

participants now committed, we are therefore able to close this Mexico-based financing. While we fully

appreciate the outside interest in this financing that has been expressed, we were able to maintain the

participation limits that were initially set. From a project development perspective, we felt this was

essential. As a result, we expect to close the first tranche of this financing early next week, with

completion no later than November 13th.”

The closing of the Offering remains subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including

approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. No finder’s fees are anticipated to be payable. Any securities

issued under the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus one day under

applicable securities laws. The participation of Mr. Rodriguez (a newly-appointed director) in the non-

brokered private placement is considered a related -party transaction under NI 61-101. The Company will

rely on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of NI 61-

101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a), because the fair market value of the securities acquired by

the Mr. Rodriguez does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

ABOUT OROCO

The Company holds a net 85.5% interest in those central concessions that comprise 1,173 hectares “the

Core Concessions” of The Santo Tomas Project, located in northwestern Mexico. The Company also holds

an 80% interest in an additional 7,861 hectares of mineral concessions surrounding and adjacent to the Core

Concessions (for a total Project area of 9,034 hectares, or 22,324 acres). The Project is situated within the

Santo Tomas District, which extends up to the Jinchuan Group’s Bahuerachi Project, approximately 14 km

to the northeast. The Project hosts significant copper porphyry mineralization initially defined by prior

exploration spanning the period from 1968 to 1994. During that time, the Project area was tested by over

100 diamond and reverse circulation drill holes, totaling approximately 30,000 meters. Commencing in

2021, Oroco conducted a drill program (Phase 1) at Santo Tomas, with a resulting total of 48,481 meters

drilled in 76 diamond drill holes.

The drilling and subsequent resource estimates and engineering studies led to a revised MRE and an updated

PEA being published and filed in August of 2024, which studies are available at the Company’s website

www.orocoresourcecorp.com and by reviewing the Company profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

The Santo Tomas Project is located within 170 km of the Pacific deep -water port at Topolobampo and is

serviced via highway and proximal rail (and parallel corridors of trunk grid power lines and natural gas)

through the city of Los Mochis to the northern c ity of Choix. The property is reached, in part, by a 32 km

access road originally built to service Goldcorp’s El Sauzal Mine in Chihuahua State.
