Collective is partnering with the Guamal Afro-Colombian Community Council, the Governor's Office of Caldas, CorpoCaldas (the regional environmental authority) and the Municipality of Supía to develop the project, which is expected to benefit approximately 2,000 residents across 420 households through the installation of approximately 600 kilowatts peak ("kWp") of solar generation capacity.
Carlos Andres Moreno, President of the Guamal Afro-Colombian Community Council, commented: "This project represents an important development opportunity for our community and has the potential to make a meaningful difference for our families and future generations. We are proud that Guamal is participating in this initiative, which demonstrates what can be achieved when communities, public institutions and the private sector work together. We believe it can create new opportunities and contribute to a stronger future for our community".
Omar Ossma, President of Collective Mining, commented: "The Guamal community has a strong cultural identity, a well-organized structure and a clear vision for its future.

Building trusted relationships through meaningful participation and collaboration remains central to the Company's approach in the regions where it operates."
Once completed, the project is expected to:
| • | Provide the community with access to a reliable source of locally-generated renewable energy; |

| • | Support local employment and skills development; |
