Spain Drilling Confirms Continuity as Bolivia Restart Gains Momentum

Executive Summary
- Orvana Minerals Corp. reported Q2 FY2026 exploration results for its Orovalle project in Spain on April 27, 2026.
- Infill and brownfield drilling at El Valle-Boinás (Area 208) confirmed continuity of oxide-hosted gold mineralization, which remains open to the east.
- Lidia greenfield drilling program completed for the fiscal year; results indicate target remains open to the southwest.
- Total meters drilled in Q2 FY2026: 3,725 metres across El Valle-Boinás and Lidia projects.
- Significant intercepts reported include DDH 26A22021 with 6.00 m @ 6.78 g/t Au and DDH 26A22020 with 2.00 m @ 19.55 g/t Au and 0.30% Cu.
- Black Skarn Target drilling completed (1,050 metres) to assess deeper skarn levels.
Material Impact
- The exploration results are consistent with previous guidance and operational expectations for the Orovalle asset.
- Confirmation of mineralization continuity supports mine life extension but does not represent a new resource discovery or material change in valuation.
- This news follows the Q2 FY2026 production release (April 16, 2026) which confirmed operations are on track to meet guidance and Don Mario restart progress.
- The Trafigura financing deal (November 2025) remains the primary value driver; this exploration update is incremental support for the Spain cash-flow engine.
- No material negative surprises regarding grade or recovery rates were noted in the release.
