The Technical Report, dated effective April 1, 2020, is titled "Technical Report: Yarumalito Gold-Copper Property, Departments of Antioquia and Caldas, Republic of Colombia". The Technical Report was authored by Greg Z. Mosher, M.Sc., P.Geo., of Global Mineral Resource Services, who is a qualified persons within the meaning of NI 43-101, is independent of the Company and has reviewed and approved the disclosure regarding the resource estimate for Yarumalito disclosed herein.

Table 1 Notes: | |
1. | Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the mineral resources will be converted into mineral reserves. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing or other relevant issues. |
2. | All quantities are rounded to the appropriate number of significant figures; consequently, sums may not add up due to rounding. |
3. | Pit constrained resources with reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction stated above a 0.50 g/t Au cut-off. |
4. | Pit optimization is based on an assumed gold price of US$1,500/oz, copper price of US$2.70/lb, mining cost of US$2.00/t, processing cost of US$8.00/t and pit slope of 45°. |
The Company notes that its press release dated May 5, 2020, reported 157,000 ounces Au (oxide), 1,085,000 ounces Au (sulphide) and 1,236,000 ounces Au (total) under contained metal for the inferred resource estimate disclosed therein. The corresponding amounts disclosed herein and in the Technical Report have been adjusted by an immaterial amount since the date of such press release.
Readers should refer to the Technical Report, a copy of which is available under the Company's profile at www.SEDAR.com, for further information regarding the resource estimate contained herein and the Project.
