PPX MINING OBTAINS SIGNIFICANT METALLURGICAL LAB RESULTS

FROM SULFIDE ORE

Toronto – March 23, 2023 – PPX Mining Corp. (the “ Company ” or “ PPX ”) PPX is pleased to announce

excellent results of a first metallurgical test of sulfide ore. The samples used come from 3 diamond d rill

holes carried out between 2010-2012 in the southern section of the Callanquitas East mineralized brecc ia

below the 3200 elevation. Current oxide mining acti vities are to the north. Historically, the Callanq uitas

deposit has been focused on this oxidized ore, and these first metallurgical results on sulfide ore a re

encouraging due to the high recoveries of both gol d and silver, as well as the elevated silver conten t

compared to the oxide ore. As of today, there are o nly 5 drill holes with sulfide information in the

Callanquitas Este breccia and only 2 drill holes in the Callanquitas Oeste breccia. These drill holes were

validated in the 2018-2019 pre-feasibility study. Further exploration will be carried out in the near future.

A composite was made from 3 samples associated to elevation 3150-3200, assaying 5.39 gr/t gold and 970

gr/t silver. Base Met Laboratories from Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada grounded this composite to a

nominal 80% passing 75 microns. Gravity concentrati on was used, followed by flotation with a strong

xanthate collector. The results showed a recovery t o concentrate of 94.1% of the gold and 96.9% of the

silver. The concentrate assayed 20 gr/t gold and 3720 gr/t silver .

John Thomas, Chief Executive Officer commented “very significant outcome from our sulfide ore. Eve n

though more drilling will be required, these impressive initial results show interesting potential for a salable

concentrate containing gold and elevated silver values”.
