The testing, conducted by Allihies Engineering Inc. (\u201cAllihies\u201d) using its proprietary, selective industrial Alkaline Selective Leaching (ASL) hydrometallurgical technology, confirms very high extraction rates of antimony are possible. The ASL technology utilized by Allihies represents an improved and optimized version of the proven industrial process used for 60 years by Sunshine Mining at its antimony plant that existed until 2002 before it was demolished. This result demonstrates the potential to unlock significant untapped value from currently unpaid by-products and positions the Company as a potential frontrunner in restoring domestic antimony product supply. For reference, antimony has been identified as a critical mineral essential for U.S. national security and economic resilience in addition to both silver and copper.<\/p>\n<p><b>Metallurgical Breakthrough Unlocks Antimony and Gold Value<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nAmericas is celebrating a major milestone in metallurgical innovation at the Galena Complex. Recent test work has confirmed the potential to extract over 99% of antimony from the site&#8217;s copper flotation concentrate, transforming a historically overlooked by-product into a valuable revenue source while bolstering the Company&#8217;s role in the domestic supply of critical minerals. Antimony flotation recovery rates from the copper\/silver tetrahedrite ore grading 1% antimony is between 90-96%.<\/p>\n<p>\nAntimony at the Galena Complex is hosted in the common sulfosalt mineral, tetrahedrite, which is an antimony sulfide of silver, copper, and iron. Although the Galena Complex has produced significant antimony over its life, the Company historically has not realized value for this material due to its then insufficient concentration and quality for smelter acceptance.<\/p>\n<p>\nAs previously announced (see the Company\u2019s press release dated May 15, 2025), the Company commissioned SGS Canada Inc. (\u201cSGS\u201d) to conduct flotation tests on current mill feed. There were two objectives to this first phase of test work:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"bwlistdecimal\">\n<li>\nConfirm that a copper\/antimony\/silver flotation product could be achieved from the tetrahedrite ore being processed through the Galena mill.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nGenerate sufficient flotation concentrate for additional testing to extract antimony from the concentrate.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Phase One<\/b> \u2013 Flotation recovery from tetrahedrite ore highlights:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nAntimony Recovery: ~90 &#8211; 96% from ore grading ~1% Sb<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nSilver Recovery: ~98 &#8211; 99% from ore grading ~50 oz\/ton Ag<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nCopper Recovery: ~96 &#8211; 98% from ore grading ~1% Cu<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nRougher Concentrate Grades: ~18 &#8211; 19% Sb, ~600 opt Ag &amp; 24% Cu<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Phase Two<\/b> \u2013 ASL Hydrometallurgical recovery from copper concentrate highlights:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nAntimony Extraction: +99% from flotation concentrate grading ~19% Sb<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nArsenic Extraction: +72% from flotation concentrate<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nSilver, copper and iron: completely retained in the leached flotation concentrate at an enhanced grade<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nGold Extraction: between 25-60% from flotation concentrate<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Paul Andre Huet, Chairman and CEO, commented:<\/b><i>\u201cI am thrilled that results of our test work have successfully demonstrated the potential to extract over 99% of the antimony from the copper ore currently being mined at our Galena Complex. At current Rotterdam antimony prices, this breakthrough could significantly enhance the payable metal value for Americas and our shareholders, as we currently receive little to no revenue for the antimony in our existing produced concentrates. Our technical team is moving forward with detailed technical and trade-off studies to develop a plan to rapidly capitalize on the opportunity to commercially recover and realize value for the antimony, gold and copper already present in our concentrates. Over the last nine months, we have been able to unravel the antimony puzzle at the Galena mine. I am very excited to deliver this news to our shareholders and the market generally \u2013 we are working to gather more information on our growing potential to become the first mine to-market antimony production in the U.S. in the last 25 years. We believe that we are the only US-based mining company that is producing extractable silver, copper, and antimony, metals that the United States government has identified as critical, strategic metals.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\nThe results from the first phase of test work conducted on the tetrahedrite material indicate that a marketable copper concentrate is possible using modern metallurgical processes. This was a very positive first step.<\/p>\n<p>\nBuilding on the results of the first phase of metallurgical test work, the second phase conducted at Allihies Engineering, Inc., focused on treating the copper concentrate from the first phase to produce a saleable antimony product. Such a product would open the door to monetize a long-overlooked by-product and reinforce the Company&#8217;s strategic value within the U.S. critical minerals supply chain by generating multiple antimony products, all produced in the Silver Valley of Idaho.<\/p>\n<p>\nThis second phase involved conducting tests on the copper concentrate to determine the extraction rate of antimony and gold. The result was over 99% extraction of the antimony was achieved, with the copper and silver metal remaining in the concentrate.

copper concentrates from the Galena Mine. At equilibrium, nearly 100% of the contained antimony was successfully leached from both copper concentrates. This leached antimony can be processed into high purity antimony metal, sodium antimonate, antimony oxide and antimony sulfides. Gold successfully leached can also be recovered. Very importantly, the arsenic concentration of the flotation concentrate was dramatically reduced with the leached arsenic potentially being selectively fixed as an iron compound for subsequent disposal. Finally, silver, copper and iron were all retained completely in the leached concentrate at an enhanced grade. Overall, this is a tremendous result for maximizing the monetization of antimony in ore already being mined at Galena\u201d.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Background: Historical Antimony Production at Galena Complex<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nAs shown in the table below, over 20 million pounds of antimony have been produced historically from the Galena Complex since 2001, based on final smelter settlement sheets. For many years during the period since 2001, the focus was on producing from non-tetrahedrite ore sources. Recent drilling since 2019 shows a large increase in the tetrahedrite ore which will become a focus for drilling and production going forward. If the potential for commercial recovery and product refinement can be realized, Americas Gold and Silver is positioned to become the only antimony end product supplier in the United States. This milestone would represent a significant development in restoring domestic supply of a mineral deemed essential to U.S. national and economic security since China halted antimony exports,
