Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – August 25, 2026) – Minaurum Silver Inc. (TSXV: MGG) (OTCQX: MMRGF) (“Minaurum” or the “Company“) is pleased to report continued high-grade drill results from the Europa, Quintera, and San Jose Vein Zones, as part of its ongoing Phase II, 50,000-metre resource-expansion drilling program at the Alamos Silver Project (“Alamos”) in Sonora, Mexico.
Highlights include:
Quintera Vein Zone
- 26.30 m of 369 g/t silver equivalent (“AgEq”)
(306 g/t Ag, 0.03 g/t Au, 0.37% Cu, 0.73% Pb, 0.61% Zn)
including 0.30 m of 2,418 g/t AgEq
(2,220 g/t Ag, 0.10 g/t Au, 1.01% Cu, 2.22% Pb, 2.46% Zn) (Hole AL26-230)
Europa Sur Vein Zone
- 3.40 m of 589 g/t AgEq
(475 g/t Ag, 0.17 g/t Au, 0.53% Cu, 0.79% Pb, 1.59% Zn) (Hole AL26-224)
“The latest drill results continue to highlight the exceptional potential of the Alamos Silver Project. At Quintera, we’re intersecting wide zones of high-grade mineralization in the footwall of the historic mine workings, strengthening our confidence in future resource growth,” stated Darrell Rader, President and CEO of Minaurum Silver. “Meanwhile, Europa Sur continues to return impressive high-grade silver intercepts across the main vein as well as the associated hanging wall structures. We look forward to releasing additional results as drilling progresses.”

Quintera – Travesia Vein Zones
AL26-230 intersected a significant width of high-grade silver, cutting 26.30 m of 369 g/t AgEq (306 g/t Ag, 0.03 g/t Au, 0.37% Cu, 0.73% Pb, 0.61% Zn), in the Quintera vein outside of the old mine workings and about 75 m north of the high-grade intersections of holes AL26-180 and AL26-188. The AL26-230 intercept is situated about 130 m up dip and 30 m north of hole AL26-215, which also returned high-grade silver: 5.95 m of 1,117 g/t AgEq (953 g/t Ag, 0.05 g/t Au, 1.22% Cu, 1.58% Pb, 0.41% Zn) (see news releases dated March 31 and July 8, 2026). Hole AL26-230D also returned a wide intersection: 9.35 m of 162 g/t AgEq (145 g/t Ag, 0.01 g/t Au, 0.14 % Cu, 0.08% Pb, 0.09% Zn).
At greater depth, hole AL26-223 intersected 2.55 m of 185 g/t AgEq (164 g/t Ag, 0.03 g/t Au, 0.15% Cu, 0.17% Pb, 0.11% Zn), cutting the Quintera vein zone slightly higher than and about 75 m north of the AL26-215 intersection. Hole AL26-230 stopped in the vein zone at 399 m due to fractured rock. AL26-230D wedged off hole AL26-230 at 323 m to drill past the blockage and cut the complete width of the vein zone. See Table 1, Figures 2 and 3.
Further drilling of the Quintera zone will include targeting down-plunge projections of southwest-plunging shoots.

Europa – Europa Sur Vein Zones
Drilling in the Europa Sur extension of the Europa vein zone continues to return high-grade results. Hole AL26-224 cut 3.40 m of 589 g/t AgEq, including 0.30 m of 1,189 g/t AgEq (988 g/t Ag, 0.32 g/t Au, 1.35% Cu, 0.89% Pb, 1.66% Zn), and 1.00 m of 1,185 g/t AgEq (951 g/t Ag, 0.23 g/t Au, 1.05% Cu, 1.55% Pb, 3.92% Zn). Hole AL26-225 intersected multiple narrower but significant high-grade intervals in the Europa hanging wall veins, including 0.40 m of 1,569 g/t AgEq (1,280 g/t Ag, 0.06 g/t Au, 1.55% Cu, 2.33% Pb, 4.40% Zn); 0.55 m of 901 g/t AgEq (751 g/t Ag, 0.10 g/t Au, 1.02% Cu, 1.08% Pb, 1.37% Zn); 0.50 m of 1,004 g/t AgEq (564 g/t Ag, 0.18 g/t Au, 2.13% Cu, 3.32% Pb, 7.42% Zn); and 0.45 m of 2,069 g/t AgEq (950 g/t Ag, 1.64 g/t Au, 7.61% Cu, 9.76% Pb, 5.36% Zn). See Table 2, Figures 4-6.
The Europa vein inferred initial resource of 26.5 Moz AgEq of the 55.2 Moz AgEq (34.8 Moz Ag, 35.6 Koz Au, 114.77 Mlbs Pb, and 237.80 Mlbs Zn) does not include its southern extension Europa Sur (see news releases dated January 28, and July 8, 2026). The drill results continue to confirm the potential for significant resource expansion outside of the central Europa vein zone and in the Europa Sur vein zone.
Further drilling is planned below and above hole AL26-225 intercept to target and further define the potential of Europa Sur vein zone.

San Jose Vein Zone
Hole AL26-220 intersected moderate mineralization returning 4.75 m of 81 g/t AgEq including 0.70 m of 102 g/t AgEq (Table 3). Recent drilling intersected stronger mineralization across wider a width of 8.5 m in hole AL26-200 returning 111 g/t AgEq (80 g/t Ag, 0.01 g/t Au, 0.05% Cu, 0.08% Pb, 0.21% Zn) including 1.55 m of 128 g/t AgEq (100 g/t Ag, 0.00 g/t Au, 0.03% Cu, 0.04% Pb, 0.10% Zn) (see news release dated July 8, 2026).
San Jose continues to provide important geological information improving Minaurum’s understanding of the vein zone. With each hole, the Company refines its targeting and vectoring, increasing confidence in the continuity of mineralization and guiding future drilling to maximize resource growth potential.

Data review and verification: Stephen R. Maynard, Vice President of Exploration of Minaurum and a Qualified Person (QP) as defined by National Instrument 43-101, reviewed and verified the assay data, and has approved the disclosure in this news release. Verification was done by visual inspection of core samples and comparison to assay results. Assay results have not been checked by re-analysis. No factors were identified that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data presented in this news release.
Analytical Procedures and Quality Assurance/Quality Control: Preparation and assaying of drilling samples from Minaurum’s Alamos project are done with strict adherence to a Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) protocol. Core samples are sawed in half and then bagged in a secure facility near the site and then shipped either by a licensed courier by Company personnel to ALS Minerals’ preparation facility in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. ALS prepares the samples, crushing them to 70% less than 2mm, splitting off 250g, and pulverizing the split to more than 85% passing 75 microns. The resulting sample pulps are prepared in Hermosillo and then shipped to Vancouver for chemical analysis by ALS Minerals. In Vancouver, the pulps are analyzed for gold by fire assay and ICP/AES on a 30-gram charge. In addition, analyses are done for silver, copper, lead, and zinc using 4-acid digestion and ICP analysis. Samples with silver values greater than 100 g/t; and copper, lead, or zinc values greater than 10,000 ppm (1%) are re-analyzed using 4-acid digestion and atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS).
Quality-control (QC) samples are inserted in the sample stream every 20 samples on average, and thus represent 5% of the total samples. QC samples include standards, blanks, and duplicate samples. Standards are pulps that have been prepared by a third-party laboratory; they have gold, silver, and base-metal values that are established by an extensive analytical process in which several commercial labs (including ALS Minerals) participate. Standards test the calibration of the analytical equipment. Blanks are rock material known from prior sampling to contain less than 0.005 ppm gold; they test the sample preparation procedure for cross-sample contamination. In the case of duplicates, the sample interval is cut in half and then quartered. The first quarter is the original sample, the second becomes the duplicate. Duplicate samples provide a test of the reproducibility of assays in the same drilled interval. When final assays are received, QC sample results are inspected for deviation from accepted values. To date, QC sample analytical results have fallen in acceptable ranges on the Alamos project.
