Fellow Shareholders,
In 2024, Element 29 Resources celebrated several significant milestones, highlighted by a major leadership transition. As the company's founder and former Chair, I, Richard Osmond, stepped into the President and CEO role. We also welcomed Manuel Montoya as Chief Technical Officer, who brings extensive experience in exploring porphyry copper deposits in Perú. Additionally, our Board of Directors was revitalized with experienced professionals tasked with guiding the Company in a new direction.
With a strong belief in our strategy, we raised
Looking ahead to 2025, beyond the anticipated drill results, we have an active exploration program lined up in Perú, including:
- Restarting the Elida Phase III drill program in Q2 to complete the remaining 5,000 metre diamond drill program, aimed at expanding Cu-Mo-Ag mineralization beyond the current pit-constrained inferred mineral resource estimate.
- Conducting an audio-magnetotellurics (AMT) geophysical survey in late Q1 at Elida to further delineate Cu-sulphide mineralization within the large porphyry hydrothermal alteration footprint, to depths exceeding 1,000 metres.
- Completion of a DIA environmental approval at Elida to expand the drill permit from 20 platforms to 40 platforms.
- Securing final drill permit approval for the Flor de Cobre drilling campaign in Q2 to test the Atravesado porphyry Cu-Mo target.
- Submitting a drill permit application for the Paka project in Q1, along with magnetometer and IP-resistivity geophysical surveys in Q3.
With so many upcoming catalysts, feel free to stop by the AMEBC Roundup 2025 where Manuel and I will be happy to discuss our exciting near-term opportunities. We can be found in the Exhibition Hall and Core Shack on January 22 and 23. If you can't meet us there, we'll also be at PDAC 2025 from March 2 to 5.

About Element 29 Resources Inc.
Element 29 is an emerging junior resource company with a highly experienced management team and board focused on exploring and potentially developing Tier-1 copper deposits in Perú, one of the lowest-cost, lowest-risk mining jurisdictions globally.
The Company's principal objective is to explore and potentially develop its Elida Porphyry Copper Deposit in west-central Perú which has an initial inferred Mineral Resource Estimate of 321.7 million tonnes grading
Alongside Elida, the Company has three (3) early stage, highly prospective porphyry Cu projects in Perú for more than 25,000 ha of titled concession. These include the Flor de Cobre porphyry Cu-Mo prospect situated in the Southern Perú Copper Belt, just 26 km from the Cerro Verde copper mine (Freeport-Buenaventura) as well as the Paka and Pahuay porphyry Cu skarn prospects related to potential tertiary-aged, mineralized porphyry complexes intruding along the eastern margin of the Peruvian Coastal Batholith.
All projects are well located for future mine development and will benefit from nearby infrastructure including roads, powerlines, ports, water, and a skilled workforce.
