Collective Mining Drills 534 g/t Gold & 40 g/t Silver Over 0.65 Metres at the ME Target and Commences Drilling on Multiple Apollo Look-alike Targets Outlined by a New Gravity Survey
A new high-grade vein system has been discovered in hole MEC-2 at the ME target (located southeast of Apollo) with assay results as follows:
0.65 metres @ 534.0 g/t gold from 274.5 metres downhole and
0.90 metres @ 47.2 g/t gold from 291.8 metres downhole
Shortly after completing hole MEC-2 and at the onset of hole MEC-3, drilling was halted as the preliminary results from the new gravimetric survey were received by the Company, indicating that these holes were drilled outside of the gravity high. The Company interprets the new discovery in hole MEC-2 to be high-grade vein leakage from a potentially large, mineralized breccia body located within the gravity high to its immediate south. Drilling has recommenced at ME targeting the gravity high with additional results expected in due course.
A new gravimetric survey was completed over a two-square-kilometre portion of the Guayabales Project covering the corridor running from the Apollo system to the concession boundary with Aris Mining’s Marmato mine with compelling highlights as follows:
Confidence in the survey is robust as it proved extremely effective in identifying Apollo as a gravity-high due to the high concentration of breccia hosted sulphides in the system.
Seven new gravity anomalies, with near-identical gravimetric features to Apollo, have been identified within the survey corridor including one located directly southwest of Apollo named Apollo South, three in the ME target area, one in the X target area and two in the Plutus target area.
Diamond drilling with two rigs to test both the ME and X gravimetric high anomalies will commence immediately with the balance of the gravity targets to be tested shortly thereafter.
Toronto, Ontario, June 30, 2025 – Collective Mining Ltd. (NYSE: CNL, TSX: CNL) (“Collective” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has discovered a high-grade vein system at the ME target and the completion of a gravimetric survey on the southeastern portion of Guayabales Project surrounding the Apollo system (“Apollo”). The aim of the survey was to highlight potential targets with Apollo style mineralization within the northwest trending Apollo-to-Marmato corridor. Apollo is the most advanced discovery made to date within the Company’s multi-target, Guayabales Project in Caldas, Colombia.
The Company currently has nine drill rigs operating as part of its fully funded 70,000 metre drill program for 2025 with seven rigs operating at the Guayabales Project and two rigs turning at the San Antonio Project. Two additional deep capacity rigs are being mobilized to the Guayabales Project to resume testing the high-grade Ramp Zone located at the bottom of the Apollo system in Q3, 2025.
Approximately 128,000 metres of diamond drilling has been completed to date at the Guayabales Project, including 90,000 metres at Apollo. There are currently twenty-nine drill holes in the lab with assay results for most of these holes expected in the near term.
Ari Sussman, Executive Chairman commented: “The results from the gravity survey are truly exciting. In fact, I believe that the gravity survey is the key breakthrough required to find another Apollo system as large porphyry related funnel breccia bodies (like Apollo) are almost always found in clusters. We are going to aggressively drill as many of the gravity targets as feasible this year and are hopeful that we will be able to deliver another discovery before the end of 2025. The high-grade veins encountered through drilling at the early-stage ME target are very encouraging as they are indicative of a fertile environment for metal deposition. I am excited to be drilling the ME gravity anomaly due south of this hole as our team believes we have a chance at finding a bulk tonnage, mineralized breccia body. With giant hydrothermal systems encompassing both our Guayabales and San Antonio projects and nine rigs turning across the portfolio, our chances of making the next big discovery to complement Apollo have never been stronger.”

Intersects 13 M Of 3.3% Copper, 5.6% Zinc 1.8g/t Gold, 46g/t Silver At Aradaib Prospect, Eritrea
Aug. 24, 2010 (Market News Publishing) --
NGEX RESOURCES INC ("NGQ-T") - Intersects 13 M Of 3.3% Copper, 5.6% Zinc 1.8g/t Gold, 46g/t - Silver At Aradaib Prospect, Eritrea
NGEx Resources Inc.
("NGEx" or the "Company") is pleased to report the results of follow-up drilling at its recently discovered Aradaib volcanic hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) prospect located in northwestern Eritrea. The recently completed drill program followed up previously reported results from ARD-10-01 which returned 10 metres of 1.89% copper, 1.2% zinc, trace lead, 0.92 grams/tonne gold and 21 grams/tonne silver, and a contiguous lower interval of 7 metres of 0.99% copper, 15.15% zinc, 0.32% lead, 0.39 grams/tonne gold, 33 grams/tonne silver (see March 08, 2010 News Release). The recent drill program included three holes around ARD-10-01, and an additional scout hole, on a newly found occurrence of gold mineralized baritic and ferruginous volcanic rock, 1.7 kilometres to the south.
Two holes (ARD-10-03 and 04) confirmed the projected down plunge and down dip extensions of the massive sulfides intersected in ARD-10-01. ARD-10-03 tested 30 metres down plunge from the mineralization in ARD-10-01 and returned 13.0 metres grading 5.59% Zn, 3.31% Cu, 1.85g/t Au and 46g/t Ag from a 20.4 metre intersection of massive sulfide and stringer mineralization. Hole ARD-10-04 drilled on the same section as ARD-10-01 but intersecting the zone 25m deeper, returned 4.0m grading 0.31% Zn, 3.49% Cu, 0.68g/t Au and 38g/t Ag from massive sulfides at 108 metres and 7.0 metres at 1.70% Zn, 2.70% Cu, 0.82g/t Au and 26g/t Ag from 118 metres. The copper in the above intervals occurs as chalcopyrite and bornite which suggests that the high copper grades are primary rather than representing secondary enrichment. The host rocks are metamorphosed to amhibolite grade and the sulphides are coarse grained. The results of ARD-10-03 and ARD-10-04 indicate that mineralization is similar in thickness and grade down dip from ARD-10-01 and similar in thickness but higher in copper and gold to the south. This in turn suggests that the center of the system is to the south.
The third hole in this program, ARD-10-05, was drilled under gossan outcrops approximately 300 metres north of the other two holes, and intersected a thick interval of altered and oxidized volcanic rock with disseminated and stringer mineralization but no significant values. The style of mineralization that was intercepted is interpreted as proximal to a massive sulfide body but it is possible that these drill holes over- or under-cut massive sulphide mineralization
Significant results from this round of drilling are shown in the table.

The Aradaib prospect is located on NGEx's Kerkebet River exploration license and is 75 kilometres north of Nevsun Resources' Bisha deposit (presently under development) and NGEx's Hambok massive sulphide deposit. NGEx's Hambok deposit has an NI 43-101-compliant indicated resource (at a 0.75% zinc cutoff) of 10.7 million tonnes grading 0.98% copper, 2.25% zinc, 6.84g/t silver, 0.20g/t gold and an additional inferred resource (at a 0.75% zinc cutoff) of 17.0 million tonnes of 0.85% copper, 1.74% zinc, 5.89g/t silver, 0.19g/t gold (Hambok NI 43-101 Technical Report, January 23, 2009 available on www.sedar.com). Aradaib is new grass roots discoveries made by NGEx geologists during follow-up of anomalous rock samples collected during regional reconnaissance of the license.
The Aradaib gossan is just one of a large number of similar gossans that have been found by prospecting on the Company's licenses. Prospecting, surface sampling, and ground gravity surveys have been the main exploration methods used, however, this work has largely been limited to areas with good outcrop. The approximately 50% of the Company's license area that is overlain by shallow gravel cover has seen only limited exploration. Airborne Mag and EM, a highly effective tool in VHMS exploration in covered areas, has never been flown over the Company's current licenses due to the expense and difficulty of getting equipment into the country. A consortium of company's operating in Eritrea have recently joined forces to bring an airborne contractor to the country and the Company plans a 1,700 line kilometer survey that will cover the entire license area. The survey is planned for early October, 2010 and is expected to generate significant new targets. It will also be useful for defining possible extensions of known systems like Hambok and Aradaib.
Commenting on the results Wojtek Wodzicki, President and CEO of NGEx, stated, "We are very encouraged by the results from Aradaib which confirm that we have discovered a new copper and gold enriched massive sulfide system at Aradaib. We are also very excited by the prospect of finally being able to fly our license with Mag and EM. We are confident that the airborne geophysical survey combined with the surface geological and geochemical database that we have developed, will help guide future exploration at Aradaib and lead to new discoveries elsewhere on our licenses."
Sample Preparation and Analysis
The drill core was sawn on site and quarter cores were sampled in their entirety in one meter intervals or intervals corresponding to geological breaks. The quartered core was bagged and air-freighted directly to Genalysis Laboratories in Perth, Western Australia. Genalysis Laboratories crushed and ground the samples. All splits and rejects produced during sample preparation have been retained at Genalysis Laboratories. A minimum of 5% duplicate core samples were sent to ALS laboratories in Vancouver for check analyses.
High and low grade, base metal and gold standards were randomly inserted into the sample stream before shipment of the samples to Genalysis. Duplicate samples and standards accounted for approximately 5% of all samples submitted for analysis.
