Xali Gold Updates after Filing Annual Financial Statements
Vancouver, British Columbia - August 21, 202 5 - Xali Gold Corp. (TSXV:XGC) ("Xali Gold” or “the
Company”) is pleased to advise that the Company filed its audited annual financial statements,
accompanying management discussion and analysis, and CEO and CFO certifications for the financial
year ended March 31, 2025 (the "Annual Filings") in accordance with applicable Canadian securities
laws on August 16, 2025 . The Annual Filings are available both under the Company’s profile at
www.sedarplus.ca as well as on the Company website under Investors – Financial Reports.
The TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX.V”) is currently conducting a Listing Review of Xali Gold , which is a
normal part of the review process after trading has been halted in a Company. The Company is working
to resume trading as soon as possible . In connection with the Listing Re view, the Transfer Agent and
Registrar for Xali Gold have confirmed that the Company is in good standing with Computershare
Investor Services Inc.
“Given the current price of gold, and our very experienced and capab le partners in Mexico , we are
focused on securing an advanced exploration stage project in South America in one of the proven high-
sulphidation epithermal belts in Peru,” said Joanne Freeze, President and CEO of Xali Gold.
El Oro Update
Xali Gold also provides an update on the cancellation of some of the El Oro concessions by the Mexican
Mining Bureau (“MMB”). Two mining concessions which were peripheral to known mineralization and
drill targets (see Map 1 below) were cancelled prior to March 31, 2025. One of these was cancelled with
notice but the other was cancelled without notice, which we have been told is unlawful. Due to the
extensive size of these two claims, and given that they comprised 76.28% of the fees owing for the total
El Oro property, the Company decided not to legally challenge these two cancellations and instead to
write-off $2,260,108 in outstanding mining fees related to these concessions.
In late July 2025, it was discovered that an additional seven El Oro concessions had also been cancelled
by the MMB without notice . All of these cancellations are understood to be unlawful for failure to
provide the legally required 60-day notice directly to the Company. The Company is currently seeking
legal advice to understand potential recourse to suspend or overturn the cancellation of these seven
concessions. It is also understood that this is not an unusual practice by the MMB at the moment and
several companies are managing to get cancellations overturned. Remedioambiente (see below under
About Xali Gold ) is legally obligated to pay the fees due on the five claims under option to them
(including two of the unlawfully cancelled ones) and has advised the Company they are in a position to
contest those cancellations (see Map 1 below).

About Xali Gold
El Oro is a district scale historic producer of gold and silver. The El Oro property hosts 20 veins with
past production and more than 57 veins in total, with two veins alone producing approximately 6.4M
ozs of gold and 74M ozs of silver from mining that averaged only 200m depth (Ref. Mexico Geological
Service Bulletin Nr. 37, Mining of the El Oro and Tlalpujahua Districts, by T. Flores in 1920).
While the Company’s main goal at El Oro is to make a new discovery, similar to the multi-million ounce
(“oz”) gold and silver ore bodies mined historically, the Company has entered into two agreements with
third parties for the rights to produce gold and silver from specific shallow areas of the El Oro Project
which are expected to bring in cash flow and open up underground access for drilling.
Remedioambiente S.A. de C.V. (“RM”) has the right to recover gold and silver from mineralized veins
and backfill left behind in the historic mine workings on five concessions. Kappes, Cassiday &
Associates (“KCA”) has the right to reprocess the Mexico Mine tailings (see News Release dated
October 24, 2024). The agreements provide for Xali Gold to receive funds from net smelter returns
(“NSRs“) of up to 3% from each of these two agreements. In addition, the underground work by RM is
expected to give the Company underground access for drilling the high -grade targets identified by
previous drilling below the historic workings at El Oro and also assist in paying mineral rights fees (see
News Release dated August 28, 2024).
