ARIS
MINING REPORTS Q4 AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS
2025
production above guidance mid-point, 2026 production expected
to rise to 300,000–350,000 ounces
Vancouver,
Canada, March 11, 2026 – Aris Mining Corporation (Aris Mining or the Company) (TSX: ARIS; NYSE: ARIS) announces its
financial and operating results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025 (Q4 2025 and FY2025). All amounts are
in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
2025
Financial Performance
| ● | 2025
production of 256,503 ounces (oz) of gold, exceeding the guidance midpoint (230,000-275,000
oz), and a 22% increase from 210,955 oz in 2024. |
| ● | 2025
gold revenue of $909 million, up 82% from 2024. |
| ● | Adjusted
EBITDA1 of $464 million, up 185% from 2024. |
| ● | Adjusted
net earnings of $241 million or $1.28/share, up 265% from $0.35/share in 2024. |
| ● | Cash
balance increased to $392 million as of December 31, 2025, up from $253 million at
December 31, 2024. This increase primarily reflects: |
| o | +$322
million of cash flow from operations after sustaining capital and income taxes; |
| o | +$115
million of proceeds from the exercise of ARIS.WT.A warrants (July 2025 expiry); and |
| o | +$13
million of proceeds from the sale of the Juby Gold Project; partially offset by |
| o | -$77
million of debt repayment and servicing; |
| o | -$60
million cash used for the Q4 2025 acquisition of the remaining 49% interest in Soto Norte;
and |
| o | -$196
million invested in growth capital. |
| ● | Net
debt reduced to $86 million, down from $241 million at year-end 2024. |
Neil
Woodyer, Chair and CEO, commented “During 2025, our operations generated $322 million of cash flow after sustaining capital
and income taxes, fully funding our growth and expansion initiatives. After these investments, we generated $127 million in net
cash flow, demonstrating the strong underlying cash generation of the business.
At
Segovia, the ramp-up of the second mill is progressing well and contributed to record financial results during the year. At Marmato,
development in the Bulk Mining Zone is ahead of schedule, materially reducing execution risk as we advance construction of the
new carbon-in-pulp (CIP) processing facility, which remains on schedule for first gold in Q4 2026.
We
also advanced our longer-term growth, completing the Soto Norte Prefeasibility Study (PFS) and the Toroparu Preliminary Economic
Assessment (PEA) in September and October 2025, respectively. We remain on track to submit the environmental license application
for Soto Norte in Q2 2026, while advancing Toroparu toward completion of its Prefeasibility Study in the second half of 2026 and
a potential construction decision in early 2027.
With
record revenue, operating cash flow and earnings since Aris Mining’s formation in September 2022, we enter 2026 in a strong
financial position and well placed to continue executing our growth strategy.”

Operational Performance
| ● | Marmato
produced 28,741 oz, a 23% increase over 2024 and above the 2025 guidance range (20,000-25,000
oz), supported by stable throughput and higher average gold grades. The 2025 results
reflect the operating capacity of the existing flotation plant. Throughput is expected
to increase materially upon commissioning of the new CIP plant later this year. |
| ● | Segovia
produced 227,762 oz, a 21% increase over 2024 and achieving the 2025 guidance range
(210,000-250,000). The 2025 performance reflects gold grades of 9.82 g/t, gold recoveries
of 96.1%, and a 17% increase in tonnes milled compared to 2024, driven by the installation
of a second ball mill in June 2025. |
| o | AISC
margin increased to $420.8 million, up 158% from 2024. |
| o | Owner-operated
Mining AISC was $1,534/oz compared to $1,486/oz in 2024, within the full-year 2025
guidance range of $1,450 to $1,600/oz. |
| o | Contract
Mining Partner (CMP) sourced gold delivered an AISC sales margin of 44%, exceeding
the full-year 2025 guidance range of 35% to 40%. |
| o | Total
AISC of $1,705/oz compared to $1,507/oz in 2024. The 2025 results reflect disciplined
cost control in owner-mining at $1,534/oz (up 3.2% over 2024). AISC for CMPs was $1,973/oz
(up 29% over 2024), primarily reflecting the gold-price-linked purchase formula during
a period when realized gold prices increased 48%. |

Corporate
and Project Development Highlights
| ● | Strong
cash generation funding growth: |
| o | Operations
generated $322.1 million in cash flow after sustaining capital and income taxes in 2025,
fully funding all growth and expansion initiatives. After expansion capital, Aris Mining
generated $126.5 million in net cash flow. See the cash-flow summary in the following
sections for additional cash flow analysis. |
| ● | 2026
Production and Cost Guidance4: |
| o | Aris
Mining expects consolidated gold production in 2026 to range between 300,000 and 350,000
oz, with production weighted toward the second half of the year. The increase reflects
higher expected production at Segovia and the start of production from the new Marmato
CIP plant. |
| o | At
Segovia, gold production is expected to increase to between 265,000 and 300,000 ounces,
up from the 227,762 ounces produced in 2025 and supported by higher mill feed from both
owner-operated mining and CMP sourced material. |
| o | At
Marmato, gold production is expected to increase to between 35,000 and 50,000 ounces,
up from the 28,741 ounces in 2025. Production will be back-end weighted driven by the
commissioning of the CIP plant, with first gold from the new plant expected in Q4 2026. |

construction advancing: |
| o | Development
of the new underground decline to the Bulk Mining Zone is currently 60% complete (over
1,000 metres advanced) and is scheduled for completion in Q3 2026, ahead of CIP plant
commissioning in Q4 2026. The new decline will significantly improve access and haulage
efficiency, enabling higher mining rates and lower costs as processing capacity expands. |
| o | The
new decline has advanced beyond the connection point to the underground crosscut, with
completion of the crosscut expected in April 2026. This horizontal development, connecting
the upper part of the Bulk Mining Zone with the main decline, will establish an additional
access and ventilation pathway, facilitate ore and waste haulage between existing and
new infrastructure, and support the initial ramp up of mine production. |
| o | The
main civil, mechanical, and electrical works are advancing, with foundations for the
mills, tailings thickener, and leach and CIP tanks completed. |
| o | Construction
of underground workshops and ore storage, main pump station and field offices will begin
in Q2 2026. |

|
| o | Subsequent
to December 31, 2025, the Company received the $40 million instalment deposit under its
precious metals stream financing following achievement of the 50% completion milestone.
The proceeds will be recognized in the first quarter of 2026. The remaining $42 million
instalment deposit is payable upon achievement of the 75% completion milestone. |
| o | During
most of 2026, owner mining rates are expected to average approximately 900 tonnes per
day (tpd), reflecting the throughput capacity of the existing flotation plant, sourced
primarily from ore development and stopes in the Bulk Mining Zone. |
| o | Aris
Mining plans to exit 2026 operating the 5,000 tpd design capacity CIP plant at approximately
3,000 tpd. Production is expected to increase through 2027, with throughput increasing
to approximately 4,000 tpd by mid-2027 and reaching the full 5,000 tpd design capacity
by the end of 2027 when the paste backfill plant is fully commissioned. |
| ● | Toroparu
Project (100% owned, Guyana): |
| o | Aris
Mining initiated a PFS last year, targeted for completion in 2026, to advance Toroparu
toward a construction decision in early 2027. |
| o | The
Company commenced select pre-construction activities, which includes building a bridge
at the Puruni river crossing and ongoing road construction. |
| o | Preliminary
Economic Assessment (PEA) completed
in October 2025, outlining an attractive project with an after-tax NPV5% of
$1.8 billion, IRR of 25%, and 3.0-year payback at an assumed gold price of $3,000/oz.5 |
| ● | Soto
Norte Project (100% owned, Colombia): |
| o | Aris
Mining is finalizing the required studies to apply for an environmental license in Q2
2026 for the development of Soto Norte. |
| o | Prefeasibility
Study (PFS) completed
in September 2025, demonstrating robust economics with an after-tax NPV5%
of $2.7 billion, IRR of 35%, and 2.3-year payback at an assumed gold price of $2,600/oz.6 |
| o | Strong
leverage to higher gold prices, at $3,000/oz the NPV5% increases to $3.3 billion
with IRR of 40%. |
| o | The
PFS incorporates industry-leading environmental and social design features, including
the integration of local community miners – 750 tpd (over 20% of Soto Norte’s
3,500 tpd processing capacity) has been dedicated to local contract mining partners. |

About
Aris Mining
Aris
Mining is a Canadian gold mining company focused on South America. The Company operates the Segovia and Marmato underground gold
mines in Colombia, which together produced approximately 257,000 ounces of gold in 2025. Aris Mining is listed on the TSX and
NYSE under the symbol ARIS.
Expansion
projects underway at Segovia and Marmato are expected to increase production to approximately 500,000 ounces of gold per year,
driven by the ramp-up at Segovia following the installation of the second mill, which was completed in June 2025, and construction
of the new Marmato bulk mine and CIP plant, with first gold expected in Q4 2026.
Aris
Mining’s existing portfolio supports a longer-term objective of approximately 1 million ounces of annual gold production7.
Key projects include the high-grade Soto Norte gold project in Colombia, where environmental studies are being finalized for submission
in Q2 2026 to initiate the licensing process, and the Toroparu gold project in Guyana, where a Prefeasibility Study is in progress
and a construction decision is expected in early 2027.

1.
All references to adjusted earnings, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, growth capital investment, cash flow after sustaining capital and
income taxes, cash costs ($ per oz) and AISC ($ per oz) are non-GAAP financial measures in this document. These measures are intended
to provide additional information to investors. They do not have any standardized meanings under IFRS, and therefore may not be
comparable to other issuers and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared
in accordance with IFRS. Refer to the Non-GAAP Measures section in this document for a reconciliation of these measures to the
most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the Company’s financial statements.
2.
Aris Mining operates its own mines and contracts with community-based mining partners, referred to as Contract Mining Partners
(CMPs), to increase total gold production. Some partners work within Aris Mining’s infrastructure, while others manage their
own mining operations on Aris Mining’s titles using their own infrastructure. In addition, Aris Mining purchases high grade
mill feed from third-party contractors operating off-title, which further optimizes production and increases operating margins.
3.
Net earnings represents net earnings attributable to owners of the company, as presented in the annual and interim financial statements
for the relevant period.
4.
2026 cash cost and All in sustaining cost (AISC) forecasts are based on a gold price of US$4,400/oz and USD to Colombian peso

mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would
enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be
realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

assessment will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. There
can be no assurance that the projected production will be achieved. Such production also remains subject to obtaining all necessary
permits for both Soto Norte and Toroparu.

De Mark, P.Geo., Senior Vice President Geology and Exploration of Aris Mining, is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument
43-101 (NI 43-101), and has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this news release.
Forward-Looking
Information
This
news release contains "forward-looking information" or forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Canadian
securities legislation. All statements included herein, other than statements of historical fact, including, without limitation,
statements relating to the Company’s ability to deliver on its 2026 objectives, 2026 production and cost guidance, Segovia
guidance, updates and timing for completion and first gold pour at the Bulk Mining Zone, the expected benefit from the Segovia
expansion, the Company’s longer-term growth outlook, the timeline for environmental studies for the Soto Norte Project,
the timeline for a Prefeasibility Study and construction decision for the Toroparu Project, the objective of reaching 1 million
ounces of production, are forward-looking. Generally, the forward-looking information and forward looking statements can be identified
by the use of forward looking terminology such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is
expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends",
"anticipates" or "does not anticipate", "will continue" or "believes", or variations of
such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would",
"might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved”. The material factors or assumptions
used to develop forward looking information or statements are disclosed throughout this news release.
Forward
looking information and forward looking statements, while based on management's best estimates and assumptions, are subject to
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or
achievements of Aris Mining to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information or
forward looking statements, including but not limited to those factors discussed in the section entitled "Risk Factors"
in Aris Mining's annual information form dated March 12, 2025 which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca
and included as part of the Company’s Annual report on Form 40-F, filed with the SEC at www.sec.gov.
Although
Aris Mining has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained
in forward-looking information and forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated,
estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information or statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results
and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information or statements. The Company has and continues
to disclose in its Management's Discussion and Analysis and other publicly filed documents, changes to material factors or assumptions
underlying the forward-looking information and forward-looking statements and to the validity of the information, in the period
the changes occur. The forward-looking statements and forward-looking information are made as of the date hereof and Aris Mining
disclaims any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking
statements or forward-looking information contained herein to reflect future results. Accordingly, readers should not place undue
reliance on forward-looking statements and information.
This
news release contains information that may constitute future-orientated financial information or financial outlook information
(collectively, “FOFI”) about the Company’s prospective financial performance, financial position or cash flows,
all of which are subject to the same assumptions, risk factors, limitations and qualifications as set forth above. Readers are
cautioned that the assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation,
may prove to be imprecise or inaccurate and, as such, undue reliance should not be placed on FOFI. The Company’s actual
results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, FOFI. The Company has included
FOFI in order to provide readers with a more complete perspective on the Company’s future operations and management’s
current expectations relating to the Company’s future performance. Readers are cautioned that such information may not be
appropriate for other purposes. FOFI contained herein was made as of the date of this Annual Information Form. Unless required
by applicable laws, the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any FOFI statements, whether as
a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
