Peruvian Metals a competitive advantage over other operations.

production at Aguila Norte during 2024. We are also proud to show that the Company's financial position
has significantly improved over the past 18 months showing a reduction in debt while advancing our
projects with cash generated from our operations. The investment into San Maurizo Mines during the
second quarter is also expected to strengthen the financial position of the Company. We fully expect that
production levels will increase for the remainder of the year and expect another record year."
