COLLECTIVE MINING COMMENCES TRADING ON THE NASDAQ

Collective Mining Ltd.'s common shares will commence trading today on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol CNL.

As previously announced on July 29, 2026, the commencement of trading on the Nasdaq follows the voluntary transfer of the company's United States stock exchange listing from the NYSE American, where its common shares ceased listing at market close on Aug. 10, 2026.

Collective's listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange remains unchanged. The company's Cusip number also remains unchanged, and no action is required by shareholders.

About Collective Mining Ltd.

Founded by the team that developed and sold Continental Gold Inc. to Zijin Mining for approximately $1.4-billion in enterprise value, Collective is a gold, silver, copper and tungsten exploration company with projects in Caldas, Colombia. The company's two projects are located directly within an established mining camp with 10 fully permitted and operating mines.

The company's flagship project, Guayabales, is anchored by Apollo, a large-scale, bulk-tonnage and high-grade gold-silver-copper-tungsten system. The company's objectives at the Guayabales project are to expand the newly discovered high-grade Ramp zone along strike and to depth, drill test the new outcropping Northern Apollo oxidized area, drill the recently granted licence covering the northwestern extension of the Trap target, and drill a series of greenfield generated targets across the property.

Management, insiders, a strategic investor and close family and friends own 45.2 per cent of the outstanding shares of the company and, as a result, are fully aligned with shareholders. The company is listed on both the Nasdaq and Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbol CNL.

We seek Safe Harbor.
