Vancouver, British Columbia – February 15, 2022 – PPX Mining Corp. (the "Company" or “PPX”) is pleased to announce that during the twelve months of Fiscal 2021 (October 1 2020 – September 30 2021) 13,888 ounces of gold and 43,176 ounces of silver were produced from ore mined at Mina Callanquitas generating Cdn$2,641,326 in Net Profit Interest Income. Ore production sold from Mina Callanquitas totalled 53,824 tonnes grading 9.75 gpt gold during the twelve-month period. During Fiscal Q4 2021 (July – September 2021) mine production totalled 14,060.78 tonnes grading 10.5 gpt gold and 106 gpt silver, the highest production rate (~153 tonnes/day) achieved to date at Mina Callanquitas. Details are set out in the table below:

Notes:

1. Net Profit Interest Income for each Quarter can be found in each respective Quarter’s Financial Statement as file on SEDAR and available on the Company’s website.

2. Ounces produced is based on the number of ounces reported recovered by the toll mill operators. The timing of reporting production from milling is offset from mine production due to transport, mill scheduling and invoicing/reporting of production from the toll mill operators.

3. In Fiscal Q3, 2021, a new toll mill and toll milling contract allowed for the Company to record silver production for the first time, therefore prior Quarter silver production is not reported.

4. As mentioned above in Note Three, a new toll mill and toll milling contract allowed for the Company to record silver production and grade for the first time, therefore prior Quarter silver grade is not reported.

PPX has not declared commercial production at Mina Callanquitas. Nonetheless, increasing metal prices and mine productivity, coupled with superior toll milling contracts, have all contributed to the increasing revenue derived from operations at Mina Callanquitas. Through Fiscal Q4 2021, Mina Callanquitas has produced over 147,061 tonnes of ore grading 9.51 gpt gold and 81.7 gpt silver resulting in production of 34,451 ounces of gold from the Measured and Indicated Resource at Mina Callanquitas which is a portion of the project’s Mineral Reserves as defined in the Igor Pre-Feasibility Study (“PFS”), available on the Company’s website and SEDAR. It should be noted that the decision to commence mining operations at Mina Callanquitas is based solely on the PFS referenced above, not a feasibility study. As such, there is an increased uncertainty as to the specific economic outcome of the project and a similar increase in the technical risk of failure associated with a production decision based solely on the PFS.

Brian J. Maher, President and CEO of PPX Mining Corp. commented: “As has been the case around the globe, PPX has faced multiple challenges during the past two years. The global pandemic, its impact on mine operations, supply chains, a refocus on community health, coupled with highly volatile metal prices, conspired to create cashflow issues for the Company. However, as can been seen in the results reported today, PPX is rebounding strongly: Mine production is steadily increasing, Net Profit Interest Income from operations is growing, and this is helping the Company head toward a sound financial footing. The results demonstrate that as PPX moves toward its fully permitted operating rate of 350 tonnes/day, potential future revenue streams can be transformative.”

Coronavirus/COVID-19 Information:

Currently, all PPX and Sienna Minerals S.A.C. employees are working from home in accordance with their individual government recommendations and mandates. This status will continue for the foreseeable future, again under the guidance of respective local authorities. Additionally, all employees of Sienna are fully vaccinated which has allowed the Company to restart its community programs in Callanquitas and interact more directly with community members.

Based on the Company’s Pre-Feasibility Study (“PFS”), PPX expects the Callanquitas Mine to produce up to 26,000 AuEq* ounces per year over a seven-year mine life at cash cost of less than US$610/AuEq* ounce (the Igor PFS is available on the Company’s website and SEDAR). While PPX has not declared commercial production at Mina Callanquitas, increasing metal prices and mine productivity, coupled with superior toll milling contracts, have all contributed to the increasing revenue derived from operations at Mina Callanquitas. It should be noted that the decision to commence mining operations at Mina Callanquitas is based solely on the PFS referenced above, not a feasibility study. As such, there is an increased uncertainty as to the specific economic outcome of the project and a similar increase in the technical risk of failure associated with a production decision based solely on the PFS.

Through Fiscal Q3 2021, Mina Callanquitas has produced over 133,000 tonnes of ore grading 9.40 gpt gold and 79.1 gpt silver resulting in the production of 30,857 ounces of gold from the Measured and Indicated Resource at Mina Callanquitas which is a portion of the project’s Mineral Reserves as defined in the Igor PFS. The mine currently produces at a rate of approximately 140 tonnes/day with ore being processed at nearby toll milling facilities.

*AuEq is calculated as follows: AuEq ounces = Au ounces + Ag ounces/75. Per PFS, inclusive of metallurgical recovery.
