of the Smithsonian National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute. This agreement
focuses on biodiversity studies to design, implement, and monitor grassland management
and conservation actions for the Company’s Inmaculada mine.

The 100% owned Inmaculada gold/silver underground mine is located in the Department
of Ayacucho in southern Peru and commenced operations in June 2015. The mine received
regulatory approval for its Modified Environment Impact Assessment in 2023, extending
its environmental permit for an additional 20 years.

The CCS conducts research and monitoring to study, understand, and integrate biodiversity
conservation needs with the development priorities of large infrastructure projects.

Hochschild Mining is a leading precious metals company, with a primary focus on 
the exploration, mining, processing and sale of silver and gold.
