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.

From the inception of mining through Fiscal Q1 2022, Mina Callanquitas has produced 162,284 tonnes of ore grading 9.44 gpt gold and 88.5 gpt silver from the Mineral Reserves and Measured and Indicated Resource at Mina Callanquitas as defined in the Igor Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS"), available on the Company's website and SEDAR.

About PPX Mining Corp:

PPX Mining Corp. (TSX.V: PPX.V, SSE: PPX, BVL: PPX) is a Canadian-based mining company with assets in northern Peru. Igor, the Company's 100%-owned flagship gold and silver project, is located in the prolific Northern Peru gold belt in eastern La Libertad Department. PPX is operating the Callanquitas Mine ("Mina Callanquitas") exploiting high grade, underground-minable oxidized gold and silver ore. 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). 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.

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

Through Fiscal Q1 2022, Mina Callanquitas has produced over 162,284 tonnes of ore grading 9.44 gpt gold and 88.5 gpt silver resulting in the production of 49,255 of gold and 461,849 ounces of silver from the Mineral Reserves and Measured and Indicated Resource at Mina Callanquitas as defined in the Igor PFS. The mine currently produces at a rate of approximately 156 tonnes/day with ore being processed at nearby toll milling facilities.
