The PEA contemplates a conventional open-pit truck-and-shovel operation and a processing rate of 15,000 tonnes per day ("tpd"). A proven processing flowsheet utilizing standard froth flotation and leach circuits achieves high metallurgical recoveries of Au, Cu, and Ag. Significant Portfolio Potential: On a gold equivalent basis, the estimated mineral resources contained in the La Mina PEA account for approximately 9% of the Company's global Measured and Indicated Resources and 16% of the Inferred Resources (refer to the Company's Annual Information Form dated February 27, 2026). Alastair Still, CEO of GoldMining commented, "The updated Project PEA highlights the underlying quality of the La Mina porphyry gold-copper mineral system and represents just a small portion of and emphasizes the depth of the GoldMining portfolio of projects that we continue to advance. By capturing current market consensus metals pricing, the PEA conceptualizes a robust $1.0 billion base case project that is characterized with an efficient capital intensity. We're not simply adjusting for the higher commodity prices; we have confirmed that La Mina is potentially a resilient development opportunity. With these solid base case economics, which improve substantially at spot prices, the Company is excited by the opportunity to further advance and de-risk the Project on the path towards potential future development." 1 The gold equivalent equations are: AuEq(oz) = Au (g/t) + [Cu(%) x {Cu Price/Au Price} x 22.0462 x 31.1035] + [Ag (g/t) x {Ag Price/Au Price}]. AISC includes mining costs, processing costs, royalties, G&A costs, transportation costs, sustaining capital and closure costs less by-product credits.

La Mina PEA Summary The PEA reviewed and refined mine engineering design work completed during the previous (2023) preliminary economic assessment disclosed by the Company, including updating all operating and capital cost estimates following a comprehensive review of technical inputs, and updating metal price assumptions. No other substantive changes were made during the study. The Project, covering 3,208 hectares, is located in the Department of Antioquia, Republic of Colombia , approximately 51 km southwest of Medellin . The Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") for La Mina includes the La Cantera, La Garrucha, and Middle Zone porphyry deposits, which are located within 1,000 meters of each other. No additional drilling has been completed at La Mina in support of this updated PEA, therefore the current MRE with effective date December 20th, 2022, remains current in support of the PEA. The PEA considers a conventional drill, blast, load, and haul open pit operation mining an average of 97,000 tpd over the 11.2 year life of mine. It contemplates that resources will be processed at a nominal rate of 15,000 tpd by conventional grinding and flotation to generate a copper concentrate, with tailings of the copper process reporting to a leach circuit to generate gold-silver doré on site. The combined LOM average metallurgical recovery of 91% , 80% and 64% are realized for gold, copper and silver, respectively. The PEA includes on-site development including mining, haul roads, access roads, process facilities, tailings and waste storage facilities, and related ancillary facilities. Construction is anticipated to take approximately two years with an initial capital expenditure of $523.3 million with operations continuing for 11.2 years. Sustaining capital expenditures over the LOM are expected to be approximately $166 million , consisting of a mix of mining capital equipment and staged expansion of the tailings and waste facilities. LOM operating costs are expected to average $29.50 /t of material processed. Under the PEA, highest metal production occurs in the initial five years of production averaging 152.4 koz AuEq comprising 126 koz Au, 22.4 Mlbs Cu, and 273 koz Ag annual production. Year 1 production of 176.5 koz AuEq comprises 138 koz Au, 27.0 Mlbs Cu, and 174.8 koz Ag. LOM average production is 137.0 koz AuEq, comprising 107.7 koz Au, 17.0 Mlbs Cu, and 248.6 koz Ag. The LOM average mining rate in the PEA is 5.5 Mt resources per annum and 30.1 Mt waste, which equates to an average LOM strip ratio of 5.5:1.

The qualified person for the above estimate is Scott Wilson, C.P.G, SME. 2. Mineral Resources are classified as Indicated Resources and Inferred Resources and are based on the 2014 CIM Definition Standards. The estimation of Indicated Mineral Resources involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic feasibility than the estimation of Mineral Reserves, and therefore investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves. The estimation of Inferred Mineral Resources involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic viability than the estimation of other categories of Mineral Resources. 3. Numbers may not add up due to rounding. 4. Cut-Off Grade: 0.30 g/t Au. 5. The Mineral Resource Estimate was based on US$ metal prices of $3.50 /lb Cu, $1,700 /oz Au and $21 /oz Ag. 6. Gold-equivalent grades were calculated using the following formula: AuEq = Au (g/t) + [Cu(%) x {Cu Price/Au Price} x 22.0462 x 31.1035] + [Ag (g/t) x {Ag Price/Au Price}]. 7. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Mineral Resources in this estimation are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred Mineral Resources as Indicated or Measured Mineral Resources. 8. There are no known environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing, political or other relevant factors that may materially affect the Mineral Resource Estimate.
