Panoro Signs Cooperation Agreement with the

Municipality of Cotabambas for the

Cotabambas Copper/Gold/Silver Project, Peru

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 16, 2026) -

Panoro Minerals Ltd. (TSXV:

PML) (BVL: PML) (FSE: PZM) (OTCQB: POROF)

("

Panoro

" or the "

Company

") is pleased to

announce the signing of a cooperation agreement (the "Agreement") with the Municipality of

Cotabambas. The Agreement reaffirms the commitment of both the Company and the Municipality to

jointly promote social development alongside the advancement of the Cotabambas Project, thereby

contributing to the well-being and sustainable development of local communities.

Led by the Municipality, initiatives will focus primarily on upgrading local roads and access routes

throughout the eight neighborhoods that comprise the Municipality of Cotabambas with the objective of

improving connectivity, infrastructure, and overall living conditions for local residents. The development

vision of each of the eight neighborhood

presidents helped shape the Agreement.

This new Agreement carries the same spirit of collaboration as in previous years, when similar

cooperation agreements were signed with earlier municipal administrations.

This Agreement and previous agreements speak to the importance of Panoro's work in the area and the

significant benefits of the Cotabambas Project to the Municipality and the District.

Panoro is also proud to have been invited once again to take part in the 2026 Independence Day

parade in the District of Cotabambas, held on July 29, 2026, an event that reflects the Company's

Peruvian national pride and commitment to Peru's economic and social development.

"We are very excited to be strengthening our presence and our commitment to the District of

Cotabambas. This Agreement reaffirms our commitment to work hand in hand with the Municipality

and the communities of Cotabambas, contributing to a relationship of trust and collaboration and

combining our efforts toward shared long-term goals
