MEDELLIN, Colombia, February 14, 2025—(BUSINESS WIRE)—Mineros S.A. (TSX:MSA, MINEROS:CB) ("Mineros" or the "Company") today reported its financial and operating results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024. All dollar amounts - other than per share amounts - are expressed in thousands of US dollars unless otherwise stated. For further information, please see the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis posted on Mineros’ website https://mineros.com.co/en/investors/financial-reports and filed under its profile on www.sedarplus.com.

Andrés Restrepo, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mineros, commented: "We are very pleased with our results for the fourth quarter and year-ended December 31, 2024. From a financial perspective, high and rising gold prices provided us with record revenues and record profits for 2024 of $538.6M and $86.6M from the production and sale of 213,245 ounces of gold at an average price $2,387. Net earnings per share were $0.29. From an operational perspective our Hemco operation is running smoothly and our partnership with artisanal miners under the Bonanza model continues to deliver excellent results aligned with our vision of bringing benefit to all stakeholders thereby allowing us to produce close to the top end of our guidance. Our Nechí Alluvial operation met revised guidance for annual production. We continue to implement various efficiency measures to improve production. We are proud of the work we do in the El Bagre area and continue to effect positive change in the lives of locals through participation in formalizing some informal miners working alongside us. Cash Cost and all-in sustaining costs were in line for Nechí and just above the higher end of guidance for Hemco because of the very strong gold price."
