Orosur Mining Inc Announces APTA Continues to Deliver
-

Currently drilling from the east to test shallower potential.
LONDON, UK / ACCESS Newswire / July 14, 2026 / Orosur Mining Inc. (“Orosur” or the “Company“) (TSXV:OMI)(AIM:OMI), is pleased to announce an update on the progress of exploration activities at the Company’s exploration project at Anzá in Colombia (“Anzá” or the “Project”).
Anzá – Colombia
The Anzá Project in Colombia comprises a number of granted exploration titles and applications totalling roughly 330km2, within the Mid-Cauca gold belt, west of the city of Medellín.
These titles and applications are owned 100% by two Colombian companies, Minera Anzá, and Minera Monte Aguila, both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.
Since acquiring 100% control, the Company has focussed its attention on three prospects:
-
Pepas – a shallow, high-grade ore body of gold mineralisation for which the Company has calculated a Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”), announced February 10th 2026.
-
APTA – a high-grade body of gold mineralisation that has to date seen over 39,000m of drilling, with drilling ongoing.
-
El Cedro – a cluster of gold porphyry intrusions in the south of the Project area. Extensive mapping and sampling programs have been undertaken and planning for the first drill program ever undertaken at the prospect are well advanced.

Figure 1. Anzá Project
APTA
The APTA prospect in the centre of the Project area has over 39,000m of drilling by various companies since 2012. This work has identified a substantial epithermal gold system.
The last phase of drilling was undertaken by the Company’s previous JV partner, MMA, from late 2020 through early 2022, at which time the abatement of Covid related operational restrictions allowed MMA field crews to begin to explore the wider Anzá project area. Results from the final holes of this phase of work were announced on 27th June 2022.
Upon assuming control of the Project in November 2024, the Company focused most of its resources on exploration at the Pepas prospect, ultimately leading to a Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) being calculated and announced in February 2026.
Work by Company geological teams in early 2026, developed new geological concepts for APTA, whereby gold mineralisation was thought to be constrained within silicified sediments and volcaniclastics bound by two large faults roughly 100m apart, that together make up the Aragon fault zone and acted as conduits for gold bearing fluids.
The first hole in a new drilling program (MAP106, results announced 9th June 2026) returned a long, lower grade intersection with higher grade zones at vertical levels substantially above what was expected from previous historical drilling.
Subsequently, hole MAP107 was drilled from a similar location, but targeted to intersect the same geological features, but roughly 50m to the south (figure 2) in order to test continuity of these higher-grade zones.
As with the previous hole, MAP107 intersected mineralisation almost immediately upon entering the Aragon fault zone, at a much higher level than previous drilling.
A composite intersection of 135.5m @ 1.91 g/t Au was recorded, with higher grade intervals included, especially lower in the hole (Table 1)

Table 1. Drill intersection MAP107
However, like the previous hole, MAP107 experienced difficult drilling conditions related to the broken ground of the Aragon fault zone, and the decision was taken to terminate the hole above the target zone of high-grade mineralisation that had been intersected in previous holes (Figure 3.)
The hole ended in mineralisation.
Results of MAP107 have supported the interpretation that the deeper levels of higher-grade mineralisation are substantially larger than previously thought. This information will assist in geological modelling that may if further results warrant, form the basis of a future MRE being developed at APTA.
Due to the difficult drilling, the decision has been made to move the rig eastward to a new access track and test the nature of shallower mineralisation drilled from the east toward the west. Pad preparation is underway and drilling at this hole (MAP108) is expected to start in several days.

Orosur CEO Brad George commented:
“As with the previous hole, MAP107 is showing APTA to be more extensive than was previously thought. A lot more work is warranted, and we are fully funded to carry it out.”

Qualified Persons Statement
The information in this news release was compiled, reviewed, verified and approved by Mr. Brad George, BSc Hons (Geology and Geophysics), MBA, Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists (MAIG), CEO of Orosur Mining Inc. and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
Orosur Mining Inc. staff follow standard operating and quality assurance procedures to ensure that sampling techniques and sample results meet international reporting standards.
Drill core is split in half over widths that vary between 0.3m and 2m, depending upon the geological domain. One half is kept on site in the Minera Anzá core storage facility.
Industry standard QAQC protocols are put in place with approximately 10% of total submitted samples being blanks, repeats or Certified Reference Materials (CRMs).
Samples are sent to Medellin laboratory of Actlabs for preparation and fire assay, with some sample then sent to the Canadian Actlabs facility for multi element assay
30 gram nominal weight samples are then subject to fire assay and AAS analysis for gold with gravimetric re-finish for overlimit assays of >5 g/t. ICP-MS Ultra-Trace level multi-element four-acid digest analyses may also undertaken for such elements as silver, copper, lead and zinc, etc.
Gold intersections are reported using a lower cut-off of 0.1g/t Au over 3m.
Intersections are quoted as downhole thicknesses. True thicknesses are unknown.
