Pan American Silver Corp. (NYSE: PAAS) (TSX: PAAS) ("Pan American" or the "Company") is pleased to report its estimated mineral reserves and mineral resources as at June 30, 2025. Proven and probable ("P&P") mineral reserves are estimated to contain approximately 452.3 million ounces of silver and 6.3 million ounces of gold. Measured and indicated ("M&I") mineral resources (excluding P&P mineral reserves) are estimated to total approximately 1,130.6 million ounces of silver and 9.9 million ounces of gold. Inferred mineral resources are estimated to total approximately 405.6 million ounces of silver and 8.6 million ounces of gold.
"Our exploration program at La Colorada has enabled us to more than replace production at that mine as well as add 52.7 million ounces of silver in the inferred mineral resource category, mostly in the newly discovered high-grade silver zones reported in the news release dated September 8, 2025," said Christopher Emerson, Pan American’s Senior Vice President of Exploration and Geology. "Exploration success across our portfolio continues to extend the life of many of our operations."
This news release does not report on, nor include, the estimated mineral reserves and mineral resources resulting from Pan American's acquisition of MAG Silver Corp. ("MAG"). Pan American completed the acquisition of MAG on September 4, 2025, which added a 44% joint venture interest in the large-scale, high-grade Juanicipio silver mine in Zacatecas, Mexico, operated by Fresnillo plc, along with MAG's interests in the Deer Trail and Larder exploration projects (collectively, the "MAG Properties"). For information regarding the MAG Properties, please see MAG's Annual Information Form dated March 24, 2025, available under MAG's profile at www.sedarplus.ca .

Mineral reserve and mineral resource highlights for the 12-months ended June 30, 2025:
At La Colorada, the eastward extension of the veins and addition of contact-type mineralization in the Manto Sur zone described in a news release dated September 8, 2025, contributed to an estimated 52.7 million ounce increase in silver inferred mineral resources.
At Timmins, exploration focused on the Timmins West mine (Timmins mine, 144 Gap and Samson zones) and drilling at depth at the Bell Creek mine added an estimated 105.4 thousand ounces of gold M&I mineral resources and 163.8 thousand ounces of gold inferred mineral resources.
At Jacobina, the majority of mine production was replaced through successful exploration and infill drilling, with the initial reporting of new mineral reserves for the Maricota zone.
At El Peñon, essentially 100% of the silver production and 78% of the gold production was replaced. Exploration success was realized in the Pampa Campamento Norte and Chiquilla Chica zones.
Consolidated M&I silver mineral resources have not changed significantly from an estimated 1,148.0 million ounces as at June 30, 2024 to an estimated 1,130.6 million ounces as at June 30, 2025, excluding M&I resources acquired through the acquisition of MAG.
Consolidated M&I gold mineral resources decreased from an estimated 15.5 million ounces to an estimated 9.9 million ounces, largely driven by the sale of the La Arena mine and the Joaquin property.
The divestment of the La Arena mine led to a reduction of 241.5 thousand ounces of gold mineral reserves, 17.6 thousand ounces of gold M&I mineral resources, and 39.6 thousand ounces of gold inferred mineral resources. The associated divestment of the La Arena II project resulted in a reduction of 5.3 million ounces of gold M&I mineral resources and 445.2 thousand ounces of gold inferred mineral resources.
