  • A three-pronged approach starting with 7,000 metres of trenching plus 10,000 metres of drilling
  • Program is planned to expand the known mineralized area and increase the existing mineral resource size

THE PATH FORWARD

A Three-Pronged Approach

Upgrade Resource

  • Upgrade 7.1 million tonnes of current Inferred resource to the Measured and Indicated category
  • a. Approximately 2,000 metres of surface trenching
  • b. Approximately 1,500 metres of drilling in 12 to 15 holes shallow
  • c. Represents about 12% of the initial budget of $6M

Expand Resource

  • Add new gold and silver ounces by drilling along strike and down dip adjacent to the existing pit-constrained resource areas
  • a. Approximately 1,500 metres of surface trenching
  • b. Approximately 3,500 metres of drilling with some drill holes reaching 200 metres in depth

Define New Targets

  • Define the potential to add new gold and silver ounces in unexplored areas where the existing data and the new mapping data confirm the

target potential

  • a. Approximately 3,500 metres of surface trenching
  • b. Approximately 5,000 metres of drilling with some drill holes reaching 350 metres in depth

THE PATH FORWARD

Other Exploration Work in Parallel

Mapping and Sampling

  • A new detailed base geologic map is being prepared for the entire Los Reyes concession area
  • Surface mapping of the various rock types, alterations, geologic structures and other physical features
  • Log and analyze 13,000 metres of core contained in 89 drill holes in Prime’s core shack in Hermosillo
  • New regional soil and rock chip sampling and assaying will be completed to acquire fresh data

Metallurgical Test Work

  • Past metallurgical tests show heap leach recovery as a viable option
  • The drill and channel sample material sent to the assay lab will be analyzed for cyanide solubility using bottle roll and similar testing in order

to build a stronger database of recovery data across the project

Schedule and Logistics

  • The program will work through the rainy season
  • Mapping and core logging activity is expected to be complete in September 2020
  • Trench channel sampling already in progress
  • Drilling is expected to begin when the base mapping and core logging is complete, sufficient surface trenching has been completed, and the

rainy season has been accounted for regarding access, safety and road construction permitting in new areas

  • Currently, the exploration program is expected to be active from July 2020 to March 2021
