Orogen Royalties Acquires the Two Peaks Project in Arizona
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 5, 2026 / Orogen Royalties Inc. ("Orogen" or the "Company") (TSX.V:OGN)
(OTCQX:OGNNF) is pleased to announce the acquisition of the Two Peaks CRD and skarn project in Arizona, USA.
Two Peaks Project Highlights
Two Peaks is an early-stage, road-accessible project hosting lead-zinc-silver-manganese replacement (CRD) and copper skarn
targets in the Laramide porphyry copper belt of southeastern Arizona
Project potential is based on the presence of an intrusive centre within a thick package of prospective carbonate rocks. A well-
developed marble front with local lead-zinc-silver mineralization and manganese oxides occurs over a kilometre outboard of the
intrusive centre
Geologically similar to South32's Hermosa deposit
Underexplored with no evidence of historical drilling
Two Peaks has no underlying encumbrances and is available for option or sale
"The generation of Two Peaks is the result of recently released geological data that includes high-resolution airborne hyperspectral
and magnetic surveys," said Laurence Pryer, VP Exploration of Orogen. "We further advanced Two Peaks with mapping and sampling
programs and utilizing frontier geoscience including Green Rock geochemistry, a study designed to rapidly assess underexplored
propylitic alteration zones for prospectivity. Two Peaks shares many geological similarities with the nearby Hermosa project, and we
are excited to discuss this project with potential partners."

About the Two Peaks Project
The Two Peaks project covers approximately eight square kilometres of BLM claims located eight kilometres west of Highway 90 near
the communities of Whetstone and Benson, Arizona within the Coronado National Forest (Figure 1).
The project is centered on small-scale, historically mined copper porphyry and skarn occurrences related to a Laramide age granodiorite
stock (Figure 2).
The host rocks to the intrusive centre include a thick package of southwest-dipping Paleozoic carbonate rocks overlain by Cretaceous
Bisbee Group sediments that include conglomerate, sandstone, siltstone, shale and interbedded limestones. The Paleozoic carbonate
rocks are equivalent to the stratigraphy that hosts massive zinc-lead-silver-manganese carbonate-replacement at South32's Hermosa
project located 45 kilometres to the southwest.
A marble front within the Paleozoic carbonates extends at least one kilometre east of the granodiorite stock and contains a 200-metre
wide structural corridor with local sub-epithermal quartz-galena-sphalerite veins and breccia development. The veins and breccias
returned up to 5.35% lead, 10.8 grams per tonne ("g/t") silver and 1050 parts per million ("ppm") manganese from grab samples of
mineralization within a zone of iron, magnesium and manganese carbonate alteration in a bleached marble. Soil sampling completed by
Orogen outlined anomalous base metals (zinc-lead-silver) up to two kilometres outboard of the intrusive centre within the carbonate
section. This could represent the distal expression of a concealed CRD system at depth (Figure 3).
The property has the potential to host a CRD and skarn systems that are preserved and concealed by post mineral normal faults. These
targets have never been tested by modern geophysics or drilling.
Prospect Generator Day
Two Peaks and Orogen's other recently created exploration projects will be presented during Orogen's third annual Project Generator
Day.

Qualified Person Statement
All technical data, as disclosed in this press release, has been reviewed and approved by Laurence Pryer, Ph.D., P.Geo., VP Exploration
for Orogen. Dr. Pryer is a qualified person as defined under the terms of National Instrument 43-101.
Summary of Analytical Method
The assay results reported from the Two Peaks property represent first pass reconnaissance samples typically "grab" or "select" in
nature. They do not represent the true width or grade of the mineralization. All rock samples were analyzed by ALS Geochemistry via
Au-ICP21 (Au 30g FA ICP-AES Finish) and ME-MS61. The samples were processed at ALS Tucson and ALS North Vancouver.
Orogen does not insert any standard, blanks or duplicates during first pass reconnaissance rock sampling.
