environmental consulting and environmental law firms.
They have considerable expertise in State and
Federal regulatory frameworks and boast a strong track record of success in permitting exploration and
mining

stakeholder engagement, and regulatory compliance and is experienced in guiding mining projects
through Mexico's permitting process.
Vikas Ranjan, President and CEO, commented: We are pleased to engage Pontones and Ledesma
to complete the EIA and to assist us in securing permits on our Mexican projects. This engagement is
a vital step toward formalizing the permitting pathway for Riqueza Marina & Zaachila Projects. We
believe that Vortex's VMS projects in Mexico are highly prospective. Many years of detailed
exploration through geophysics, geologic mapping and geochemical sampling were done to develop
multiple VMS drill targets on both projects. We look forward to expediting the work to secure drill
permits 1

at Zaachila and then at Riqueza Marina project, added Mr. Ranjan.
The firm will focus first

approved expanded environmental and geological baseline studies and has formally provided
community approval, a critical requirement for applying for drill permits, on their lands.
The Zaachila concession consists of 3,264 Hectares and is about 40 kilometers (km) southwest of
Salina Cruz, 3
rd
largest city in Oaxaca and 30 km southwest of Vortex's Riqueza Marina project.
Zaachila, a Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS) project, is highly prospective, drill ready, and has a
roughly >5km copper-in-rock anomaly hosted by a package of sub-marine volcanic breccia and debris
deposits intercalated with 'exhalite' beds or lenses. More details on the project and its exploration
targets can be found in the press release on Company's website

and community expectations.
