Results continue to indicate high-grade mineralization and the long-term potential of the deposit
(All amounts expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated)
Toronto, May 20, 2025 - Torex Gold Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Torex") (TSX: TXG) is pleased to provide remaining results from the 2024 drilling program and initial results from the 2025 drilling program at ELG Underground. The results support the Company's target of further extending the mine life of ELG Underground by identifying new zones of higher-grade mineralization, expanding resources within known areas, and replacing mined reserves.
Jody Kuzenko, President & CEO of Torex, stated:
"Following many years of ongoing drilling success at ELG Underground, the deposit continues to impress and provide us with much optimism that we will be mining there for years to come. Building off the successful 2024 program wherein we replaced mineral reserves, this year's program aims to once again extend mine life while targeting to build out the mineral resource inventory, supporting our objective of sustaining production levels for the Morelos Complex above 450,000 gold equivalent ounces well beyond 2030.
"Our exploration team continues to encounter high-grade mineralization as they step-out beyond the boundaries of known resources across several defined trends, furthering our understanding about how these trends are influenced by cross-cutting faults believed to be the main mineralization controls. A prime example of this is where recent drilling along the El Limón West Trend towards the El Limón Sur fault encountered 8.98 grams per tonne gold equivalent ("gpt AuEq") over 35.8 metres ("m").
"There is no doubt that the geology at the Morelos Property is prolific - with the completion of the Media Luna project in 2025, we are doubling down on exploration this year, drilling almost twice the metres relative to 2024 and increasing the budget by approximately 50%. With 48,000 metres of drilling targeted for ELG Underground this year, these initial results form a solid start to what I believe will be another excellent year of drilling success at ELG Underground."
HIGHLIGHTS
El Limón Sur Trend
-
Central Zone: Holes SST-359 and LS-371 drilled at the intersection of the El Limón Sur Trend and the Z71 fault delivered multiple mineralized intercepts, most notably 12.18 gpt AuEq over 26.4 m at LS-371. Drill holes LS-370 and LS-359 confirmed the continuity of mineralization at depth with multiple high-grade intercepts, most notably 43.68 gpt AuEq over 10.3 m and 5.97 gpt AuEq over 26.4 m in drill hole LS-370. These holes show that mineralization in this area is comprised of at least three vertically continuous parallel mineralized structures along the El Limón Sur Trend that are open along strike and at depth down to 800 metres above sea level ("m.a.s.l."). A comprehensive follow-up drilling campaign is planned for 2025, aimed to explore the continuity of mineralization along strike, at depth, and to the south (Figures 2A and 2B).
-
North Zone: The 2024 drilling program was successful in upgrading Inferred Resources to the Indicated category. Results encountered to date warrant a follow-up drilling campaign at depth down to the elevation of the Guajes Tunnel, aimed at increasing Inferred Resources as part of the year-end 2025 reserve and resource update (Figure 2C).
El Limón West Trend
-
The deepest intercept of drill hole LS-374 shows discrete, high-grade mineralization (19.57 gpt AuEq over 2.2 m) around the elevation of the Guajes Tunnel (~550 m.a.s.l.), indicating that the vertical extension of the mineralization likely reaches below this level (Figure 3).
-
Drilling returned multiple high-grade intercepts stepping out of the current resource towards the El Limón Sur fault, including drill holes LS-351 (8.98 gpt AuEq over 35.8 m) and LS-373 (10.77 gpt AuEq over 5.8 m and 5.34 gpt AuEq over 9.0 m). These and other results from step-out drilling in the area show that the current resource is open in all directions and will be a focus of further investigation this year, with a view to confirm mineralization continuity and add new Inferred Resources (Figure 3).
ELG UNDERGROUND DRILLING PROGRAM
The primary objective of the current ELG Underground drilling program is to increase the Inferred Resource inventory and replace mined reserves to support sustaining production for the Morelos Complex above 450,000 AuEq ounces ("oz") per year beyond 2030. The program is focused on identifying high-grade mineralization extensions along the El Limón Sur, El Limón Deep, El Limón West, and Sub-Sill trends.
Torex has budgeted $12 million towards drilling at ELG Underground in 2025. Drilling is progressing well with four rigs currently working in the area. Assay results presented in this news release include those for the 9,149 m drilled during 2024 that were received after the cutoff date for inclusion in the year-end 2024 mineral reserve and mineral resource update as well as assay results from the first 8,813 m of the 48,000 m of drilling planned for 2025. The focus for the first quarter of 2025 was primarily on the Advanced Exploration program, targeting extensions of existing resources at El Limón Sur and El Limón West (Figure 1). Drilling results confirm the grades and continuity of mineralization within the resource and show compelling potential to extend mineralization.
Detailed drill results are reported in Table 3 (El Limón Sur Trend), Table 4 (El Limón West Trend), Table 5 (El Limón Deep Trend), and Table 6 (Sub-Sill Trend); previously reported drill holes are reported in Table 7.
AuEq grades use the same metal prices ($1,650/oz gold ("Au"), $22/oz silver ("Ag"), and $3.75/lb copper ("Cu")) and metallurgical recoveries (90% Au, 86% Ag, and 93% Cu) used in the current mineral resource estimate for ELG Underground (effective date of December 31, 2024) and has been applied to the assay results for newly published drill holes as well as previously published drill holes. The gold equivalent grade calculation used is as follows: AuEq (gpt) = Au (gpt) + Ag (gpt) * 0.0127 + Cu (%) * 1.6104).

EL LIMÓN SUR TREND (FIGURES 2A, 2B, and 2C)
Drilling along the El Limón Sur Trend has been focused in the central and north zones, near the trend's intersections with the Z71 and La Flaca faults, respectively (Figure 2A). The goal is to expand the central zone at depth and to the south, as well as to extend the north zone at depth beyond the elevation of the Guajes Tunnel (~400 m.a.s.l. or 200 m below the current resource boundary). Most of the holes drilled in these areas have encountered favorable alteration and mineralization zones, supporting the potential for resource expansion.
The multiple high-grade intercepts found at the central zone, notably in drill holes SST-359, LS-371 and also found in deeper drill holes LS-370 and LS-359 (Table 1, Figure 2B), show that mineralization in this area is comprised of at least three vertically continuous parallel mineralized structures along the El Limón Sur Trend of up to 26.4 m at 12.18 gpt AuEq (drill hole LS-371). High-grade mineralization is potentially open along strike and at depth down to 800 m.a.s.l., controlled by the intersection of the El Limón Sur Trend and the Z71 fault (Figures 2A and 2B). These results warrant follow-up drilling this year, aimed at testing the mineralization continuity along strike, at depth, and to the south.
At the north zone, drilling to test the continuity of mineralization towards the central zone returned favourable results (Figure 2C). Drilling at depth (LS-369) also encountered mineralization at 500 m.a.s.l., the continuity of which will be a focus of further drilling this year.

EL LIMÓN WEST TREND (FIGURE 3)
Drilling targeting the expansion of resources along the southern extension of the El Limón West Trend has returned multiple high-grade intercepts. Most notably, drill holes LS-351 (8.98 gpt AuEq over 35.8 m and 6.18 gpt AuEq over 2.8 m), LS-352 (7.35 gpt AuEq over 7.7 m), and LS-373 (10.77 gpt AuEq over 5.8 m) indicate that mineralization is open in all directions. Additionally, drill hole LS-374 (19.57 gpt AuEq over 2.2 m) shows a discrete, high-grade intercept proximal to the elevation of the Guajes Tunnel (~550 m.a.s.l.). This indicates the potential of vertical continuity of mineralization for over 150 m at depth from the base of the current resource. These results warrant follow-up drilling this year aimed to confirm mineralization continuity to the north and south of the El Limón Sur fault and at depth down to the level of the Guajes Tunnel.
Along the northern extension of the El Limón West Trend, the follow-up hole LS-367 was drilled to explore for the source of previously reported shallow mineralized intercepts in LS-316 (4.55 gpt AuEq over 4.5 m; previously reported, see Table 7 for more information) and LS-317 (3.96 gpt AuEq over 3.9 m; previously reported, see Table 7 for more information), and identified favorable alteration and mineralization at surface. The hole intersected a narrow zone of quartz veinlets, although the associated mineralization was weak. Further geological work will be carried out during 2025 to define follow-up drilling in this area.

EL LIMÓN DEEP TREND
Along the El Limón Deep Trend, drilling has been focused on the western and central portions of the mineralized trend, with the objectives of upgrading Inferred Resources and evaluating the continuity of alteration and mineralization below 650 m.a.s.l. Results to date show relatively weak alteration in the area which indicates that mineralization may be limited at depth. However, potential remains towards the trend's intersection with the El Limón West Trend as a favourable mineralization control, which will be a focus for drilling through the remainder of the year.
Drilling has also been focused on upgrading and expanding Inferred Resources in the southwest-plunging mineralized zone towards the trend's intersection with El Limón West Trend. Only drill hole LDUG-392 (6.05 gpt AuEq over 5.5 m) of the three completed holes in this area encountered mineralization.
SUB-SILL TREND
Recent Advanced Exploration drilling along the Sub-Sill Trend has been primarily focused on its intersection with the Z71 fault. Mineralization has been encountered at depths around 500 m.a.s.l., indicating that this area remains open at depth. In addition, drilling along the northern extension of the trend encountered mineralization north of the La Flaca fault, highlighting the potential for resource extensions beneath the El Limón Open Pit and the mineralized intercepts of drill hole LDUG-394 (5.82 gpt AuEq over 2.9 m and 7.34 gpt AuEq over 3.7 m) over an unexplored area of approximately 150 m of vertical extension.
ELG MINE COMPLEX GEOLOGY
The ELG Mine Complex, located in the central part of the Guerrero Gold Belt in southwest Mexico, is hosted in the Mesozoic carbonate-rich Morelos Platform which has been intruded by Paleocene granodiorite stocks, sills, and dikes, and the uplifting of the block close to surface by maar-diatreme complexes.
Skarn-hosted gold mineralization develops along contacts of the intrusive rocks and carbonate-rich sedimentary rocks of the Cuautla and Morelos Formations, as well as along the footwall contact of the Mezcala Formation. At depth, the mineralization has a strong structural control related to the main stages of deformation, with the collision of allochthonous terrain being responsible for the major north-south faults, while the almost east-west faulting is associated with the beginning of the subduction process.
Gold mineralization at ELG occurs in spatial association with a skarn body that was developed along a two-kilometre-long corridor following the northeast contact of the ELG granodiorite stock. The skarn zone that occurs at the marble stratigraphic level of the Morelos Formation is in contact with hornfels developed in the Mezcala Formation. At El Limón, skarn mineralization is also structurally controlled by north-south and north-east trending faults. Early-stage deposition corresponds to skarn alteration and mineralization at ELG and is fairly typical of calcic gold-skarn systems. Zones of coarse, massive, garnet-dominant skarn appear within and along the stock margin, with fine-grained pyroxene-dominant skarn more common at greater distances from the contact with the stock. Significant gold mineralization at ELG is spatially associated with the skarn, preferentially occurring in pyroxene-rich exoskarn but also hosted in garnet-rich endoskarn that has been affected by retrograde alteration, which suggests that the most important gold event is strongly related to bismuth, late stage, and of epithermal origin.
Dikes and sills are found to crosscut the hornfels and marble along the structural trends mentioned above and are spatially associated with the skarn formation. In some cases, these are the control of main gold mineralization stage at depth.
The style of mineralization at the El Limón Deep, El Limón Sur, Sub-Sill, and El Limón West trends is characterized by gold, with locally high silver and copper grades. Given that gold precipitates due to the buffer exerted by the early stage of calc-silicate alteration and sulfide mineralization, it is free and generally dissociated from the previous copper event mainly related to chalcopyrite.
QA/QC AND QUALIFIED PERSON
Torex maintains an analytical quality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") and data verification program to monitor laboratory performance and ensure high-quality assays. Results from this program confirm the reliability of the assay results. All sampling and analytical work for the mine exploration program is performed by SGS de Mexico S.A. de C.V. ("SGS") in Durango, and by SGS at Morelos mine site facilities in Mexico. Gold analyses comprise fire assay with atomic absorption or gravimetric finish. External check assays for QA/QC purposes are performed at ALS Chemex de Mexico S.A. de C.V.
The analytical QA/QC program is currently overseen by Carlo Nasi, Manager, Geology for Minera Media Luna, S.A. de C.V. All samples reported have been checked against Company and Lab standards, and blanks. No core duplicate samples are taken.
Core sizes are mostly HQ in diameter and NQ core diameter is used sporadically if ground conditions require. Samples are sawn lengthwise in half. One half of the core is bagged and sealed for analytical analysis and one half is retained in the core box for reference.
Sample preparation is carried out by SGS facilities in Durango and the Morelos mine site, Mexico and consists of drying and crushing 3 to 5 kg to >75% passing 2 mm followed by pulverization of 500 g to >85% passing 75 μm (G_PRP89). Gold is analyzed at the SGS facilities in Durango and at the Morelos mine site following internal analytical protocols. Gold analysis comprises a 30 g fire assay with an atomic absorption finish (GE_FAA30V5). Over-limit results for gold analysis (for samples reported as >10,000 ppb or >10 ppm) comprises 30 g Au by fire assay with gravimetric finish (GO_FAG30V). Copper and silver analyses up to 300 ppm Ag, Cu up to 10%, and iron up to 10% analysis are completed via Aqua Regia digestion and atomic absorption finish (GO_AAS21C50). Multi-element geochemical analysis is done by an Aqua Regia digestion with detection by ICP-OES using SGS internal analytical protocol and are conducted at SGS facilities in Durango (GE_ICP14B).
External check assays for QC purposes are done on pulps and performed at ALS Global in Queretaro, Mexico. Approximately 3% of the samples collected from exploration and operation drilling as well as production samples are sent for analyses checks and assayed for Au, Ag, and Cu.
Internal and external check control results are reviewed daily by MML and an external audit by Qualitica Consulting Inc. is carried out quarterly. The outcome of the test work indicates that the precision and accuracy of the results received from SGS' Durango and ELG mine site facilities are within acceptable tolerance ranges.

Notes to Table
1) Drill hole intercepts are shown both in core length and true widths. Core and true width lengths subject to rounding. Assay results are uncapped.
2) Coordinates are WGS 1984 UTM Zone 14N.
3) Torex is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data.
4) The gold equivalent grade calculation used is as follows: AuEq (gpt) = Au (gpt) + Ag (gpt) * 0.0127 + Cu (%) * 1.6104 and use the same metal prices ($1,650/oz Au, $22/oz Ag, and $3.75/lb Cu) and metallurgical recoveries (90% Au, 86% Ag, and 93% Cu) used in the year-end 2024 mineral resource estimate for ELG Underground.
