About Tesoro
Tesoro Gold Limited was established with a strategy of
acquiring, exploring, and developing mining projects
in the Coastal Cordillera region of Chile. The Coastal
Cordillera region is host to multiple world class copper
and gold mines, has well established infrastructure,
service providers and an experienced mining
workforce. Large areas of the Coastal Cordillera
remain unexplored due to the unconsolidated nature
of mining concession ownership, but Tesoro, via its incountry network and experience has been able
secure rights to a district scale gold project in-line with
the Company’s strategy. Tesoro’s 95% owned Chilean
subsidiary owns 85% of the El Zorro Gold Project.

El Zorro Gold Project: Chile’s Newest Gold Discovery
• Tesoro Owns 85% of the El Zorro Gold Project (1).
• 30.5Mt @ 1.12g/t Au for 1.1Moz at 0.3g/t Au cut-off (2) defined by 300
diamond drill holes.
• High-grade opportunity using 1.0g/t cut off:
• 9.6Mt @ 2.31g/t Au for 715koz.
• Unconstrained classified resource of 38.6Mt @ 1.06g/t Au for 1.3Moz, at
0.3g/t Au cut-off (2).
• Discovery Cost US$15/oz (1/3 global average).
• Outcropping Orebody with High-Grade Zones.

Notes: 1- Tesoro’s 95% owned Chilean subsidiary owns 85% of the El Zorro Gold Project and may increase its holding of the JV via capital contributions. On
26 August 2021, 15% JV partner Wanaco disputed the valuation & the procedure followed for the recent capital increase approved in the Shareholders
Meeting of El Zorro SCM held on 11 February 2021. Tesoro is vigorously defending its position and pursuing legal avenues to have this spurious claim
rejected by the court.
