About Panoro

Panoro remains focused on completing its technical objectives including project optimization studies which will feed into a PEA and help define the scope for the prefeasibility study for its Cotabambas Project.

From the sale of the Antilla Project in 2021, Panoro is planning to receive payment #3 in 2025. In addition, the Company will receive a contingent payment based on the estimated NPV of the Antilla Project at a later date. The proceeds from these payments are expected to be invested into the advancement of the Cotabambas Project to feasibility level and permitting.

Corporately, in parallel with the advancement of technical objectives, Panoro is engaged in early-stage discussions of potential strategic alternatives with several parties to advance the Cotabambas Project into construction and operation.
