Cerro Blanco Drilling Commencement and Credit Facility Closing
CERRO BLANCO DRILLING COMMENCEMENT AND CREDIT FACILITY CLOSING
CALGARY / October 17, 2025 / San Lorenzo Gold Corp. ("San Lorenzo" or the "Company") (TSXV: SLG and
OTC: SNLGF ) is pleased to advise that on October 11, 2025 , drilling commenced at the Cerro Blanco
porphyry target situated on San Lorenzo’s flagship Salvadora property in Chile . Drilling operations are
continuing on the first of 3 planned holes which will target strong geophysical anomalies identified in San
Lorenzo’s recently reported expanded induced polarization geophysical surveying program (see San
Lorenzo news release dated June 17, 2025). The Company intends to provide drilling updates, including
assay results, on an ongoing basis.
San Lorenzo is also pleased to advise that the previously reported second credit facility providing up to
and additional $1,000,000 of funding to the Company has received final TSX Venture Exchange approval
and has closed (see San Lorenzo news release dated August 6, 2025). Proceeds from the second credit
facility will be used to fund the recently commenced drilling program at Salvadora.
The second credit facility was provided by the same company (the “Lender”) that provided the initial
credit facility which is a company related to a director of the Company (see San Lorenzo news release
dated November 19, 2024).
Once fully drawn, a dvances under the second credit facility will automatically convert into a term loan
maturing on July 31, 2027 . The second credit facility bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum and is
convertible at the option of the Lender into common shares of the Company at a price of $0.35 per
common share until maturity. If converted, the Lender has agreed to a contractual hold period such that
the share certificate representing the common shares will bear a legend restricting the trading of such
shares for a period of 1 year from the date of their issuance.
No bonuses, finders fees or commissions were paid in respect of the second credit facility.
MI 61 -101 Considerations: As a company related to an insider of the Company participated in the
transaction, it was deemed to be a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument
61-101-Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“ MI 61 -101”). Neither the
Company, nor to the knowledge of the Company after reasonable inquiry, a related party had had
knowledge of any material information concerning the Company or its securities that has not been
generally disclosed. The second credit facility is exempt from the formal valuation and minority
shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 (pursuant to subsections 5.5(c) and 5.7(1)(b)) as it was
a distribution of securities for cash and neither the fair market value of the second credit facility, nor the
consideration received from related parties, exceeded $2,500,000. The second credit facility was
unanimously approved by the board of directors of the Company, excluding the director who is related to
the company providing the second credit facility, who abstained from voting. The Lender currently holds
50,000 common shares of the Company and holds no options. If the second credit facility is fully drawn
to the maximum permitted amount, and both the first and second credit facilities are converted in
accordance with their terms, a total of 7,857,143 common shares would be issued, which would represent
9.0 % of the then issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.
