• Collective Mining reported assay results from thirty diamond drill holes at the Guayabales Project in Colombia, with 22 of 24 Shallow Halo Zone holes returning mineralized intervals above the 0.30 g/t AuEq open pit cut off grade and several high grade gold intercepts occurring outside the current Apollo Mineral Resource.
• The update highlights that only about 41% of the Shallow Halo Zone has been drill tested. The 2026 program remains fully funded with US$93.7 million in cash and 13 rigs active, underlining how much of Apollo’s interpreted near surface target area still lacks drilling coverage.
• We will now look at how Collective Mining’s investment narrative could shift as high grade Shallow Halo results emerge outside the resource.

Collective Mining Investment Narrative Recap

To stay on board as a shareholder in Collective Mining, you need to believe that Guayabales, and especially Apollo, can eventually support an economic mining project as drilling, metallurgy and studies progress. The latest Shallow Halo results keep the core bet intact. They reinforce that near surface mineralization continues to show up above the 0.30 g/t AuEq open pit cut off grade.

The key near term catalyst remains how the next rounds of assays, engineering work and permitting steps feed into the planned updated Mineral Resource and later economic studies. The biggest risk is unchanged. Collective Mining still generates no revenue and depends on continued drilling success and funding access to carry the story through to development decisions.

The most relevant recent milestone around this news is the maiden Mineral Resource for Apollo that management released on 8 September 2026. That initial resource now acts as the base case that investors are measuring these new Shallow Halo intercepts against, especially where mineralization appears outside the current pit shell and resource footprint.

Thinking about catalysts, the combination of a defined starting resource, 13 active rigs, US$93.7 million of cash and 69 pending drill holes gives Collective Mining a crowded pipeline of data points between now and the targeted 2027 to 2028 resource update. Execution risk stays high for an explorer with no cash flow, so the value of each new technical update depends on how clearly it moves Apollo and the broader Guayabales district toward viable development studies.

Collective Mining's narrative projects forecast revenue of $454.8 thousand and forecast earnings of $142.9 thousand by 2029. This path assumes revenue grows from zero and that earnings move from a loss of $56.9 million today to that 2029 forecast, an earnings swing of roughly $57 million.
