BROSSARD, Quebec, March 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)G Mining Ventures Corp. (“GMIN” or the “Corporation”) (TSX:GMIN, OTCQX:GMINF) reports its consolidated Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources (“MRMR”) as of December 31, 2025, prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (2014 Edition). The year-end (“YE”) 2025 update reflects an increase in the Corporation’s reserve base, driven by the publication of the Oko West Feasibility Study (“FS”). Unless otherwise stated, all dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars.

“Today’s mineral reserve update positions G Mining Ventures with significant strategic optionality,” commented Louis-Pierre Gignac, President & Chief Executive Officer. “We now have a cash-generating asset at Tocantinzinho supporting the construction of Oko West, one of the largest gold projects under construction globally, while advancing Gurupi through technical studies. This three-asset platform provides multiple pathways to production growth, portfolio diversification, and exploration upside. With Oko West advancing toward first gold pour in H2 2027 and Gurupi’s development roadmap taking shape, we are building a diversified, long-life portfolio positioned for sustained growth well into the next decade.”

The 221% year-over-year increase in Mineral Reserves reflects the addition of 4.64 Moz from the Feasibility Study at Oko West Project despite depletion at Tocantinzinho (“TZ”) following the first full year of commercial production. At Oko West, ~88% of resources were converted into mineral reserves. This is a positive indicator of geological confidence and resource maturity, also demonstrated by the conversion of 2.40 Moz of Inferred Resources (YE 2024) into the Indicated category, reducing Inferred ounces to 1.17 Moz at year-end 2025.

Tocantinzinho Gold Mine, Pará State, Brazil

TZ achieved commercial production in H2 2024 and completed its first full year of operations in 2025, processing ~189 koz of gold for total production of 172 koz of gold, reflecting the asset’s transition into a steady-state cash-generating operation. As of December 31, 2025, the asset reports 1.87 Moz of Proven and Probable Reserves at 1.17 g/t Au. The 2026 exploration budget is set at $8–10 million with the intent of discovering the next deposit within the TZ land package.

Oko West Project, Guyana

Following the completion of the 2025 Feasibility Study, Oko West reports 4.64 Moz of Proven and Probable Reserves at 1.89 g/t Au. The FS outlines a robust 12.3-year mine life with average annual production of ~350,000 oz. Construction is advancing on schedule, with 60% of detailed engineering completed to date and targeting 100% completion in Q3 2026. First gold production is targeted for H2 2027, with commercial production anticipated in January 2028. The Corporation notes that mineralization identified through exploration drilling conducted after the completion of the FS has not been included in the 2025 year-end mineral resource estimate, representing potential future reserve growth as the project advances.

Gurupi Project, Maranhão State, Brazil         

The Gurupi Project, located in northeastern Brazil, reports 1.83 Moz of Indicated Resources and 0.77 Moz of Inferred Resources as of year-end 2025, establishing it as the third pillar of GMIN’s multi-asset portfolio. The project continues to advance through technical studies, with an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) and a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) targeted for H2 2026. The 2026 exploration budget for Gurupi totals $21 million, supporting resource definition drilling, the resumption of regional exploration programs, and the advancement of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (“ESIA”), which is expected to be filed in H2 2026.

2026 Catalysts

  • Oko West Construction: Completion of detailed engineering Q3 2026;
  • Gurupi Milestones: ESIA filing H2 2026; Updated MRE & PEA H2 2026
  • Exploration Update across Portfolio: $42–50M total budget; 110,000 m drill program

Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Information
All statements, other than statements of historical fact, contained in this press release constitute “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of certain securities laws and are based on expectations and projections as of the date of this press release. Beforehand, it must be noted that the main subject matter of this press release, being mineral reserves and resources (i.e., estimates), is forward-looking in its essence and nature. Forward-looking statements contained in this press release include, without limitation, those related to (i) the reserves at TZ supporting ongoing operations in Brazil; (ii) the gold price assumptions being conservative; (iii) Oko West advancing toward first gold pour in H2-2027 and commercial production in January 2028; (iv) Oko West advancing on schedule and being expected to produce an average of 350,000 ounces of gold per year, making it the largest gold project currently under construction; (v) the 2026 exploration budget intending to discover the next deposit within the TZ land package; (vi) Gurupi representing the third pillar of GMIN’s multi-asset portfolio, with an updated MRE and PEA, as well as an ESIA, targeted for H2-2026; and (vii) in general, the whole contents of the section entitled “2026 Catalysts”, all figures set out in the tables 1 and 2 outlining the Consolidated MRMR as well as those featured in the Appendices A and B; and, as usual, the whole section entitled “About G Mining Ventures Corp.”, as well as the quoted comments of GMIN’s President & Chief Executive Officer.

Forward-looking statements are based on expectations, estimates and projections as of the time of this press release. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Corporation as of the time of such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. These estimates and assumptions may prove to be incorrect. Such assumptions include, without limitation, all those enumerated in Appendix C, the price of gold (namely the gold price assumptions of US$ 1,800 per ounce for Mineral Reserves and US$ 1,950 per ounce for Mineral Resources), the currency exchange rates, and those underlying the items listed in the above section entitled “About G Mining Ventures Corp.”.

Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can directly or indirectly affect, and could cause, actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that, notably but without limitation, (i) Oko West will remain one of the largest gold projects under construction globally; (ii) all of the mineral resources converted in mineral reserves at Oko West will eventually yield ounces of gold sold; (iii) all of the inferred resources that were converted into indicated resources will become mineral reserves (and eventually, ounces of gold sold); (iv) Oko West will continue to advance in line with plan and will remain on-schedule and on-budget to achieve first gold pour in H2-2027, and to become a large-scale and long-life mining operation; (v) the current gold price levels will be at least maintained at the time Oko West will commence production; or (vi) TZ and Oko West will grow GMIN into the next mid-tier precious metals producer, as future events could differ materially from what is currently anticipated by the Corporation. In addition, there can be no assurance that Brazil and/or Guyana will remain mining-friendly jurisdictions.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks exist that estimates, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved or that assumptions do not reflect future experience. Forward-looking statements are provided for the purpose of providing information about management’s expectations and plans relating to the future. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as a number of important risk factors and future events could cause the actual outcomes to differ materially from the beliefs, plans, objectives, expectations, anticipations, estimates, assumptions and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. All of the forward-looking statements made in this press release are qualified by these cautionary statements and those made in the Corporation’s other filings with the securities regulators of Canada including, but not limited to, the cautionary statements made in the relevant sections of the Corporation’s (i) Annual Information Form dated March 27, 2025, for the financial year ended December 31, 2024, and (ii) Management Discussion & Analysis. The Corporation cautions that the foregoing list of factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive, and new, unforeseeable risks may arise from time to time. The Corporation disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or to explain any material difference between subsequent actual events and such forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable law.
