VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / November 10, 2026 / Condor Resources Inc. ("Condor" or the "Company") (TSXV:CN) announces that it has entered into a fifth amendment dated November 9, 2026 (the "Fifth Amendment") to the December 21, 2020 Purchase and Sale Agreement relating to the Lucero project (as amended, the "Lucero PSA") with Element79 Gold Corp. ("Element79") and its subsidiaries Calipuy Resources Inc. and Minas Lucero del Sur S.A.C. The Fifth Amendment follows Element79's failure to pay the US$1,000,000 balance of the closing payment that was due to Condor on August 25, 2026 under the fourth amendment to the Lucero PSA (the "Fourth Amendment"), the terms of which were announced by the Company on August 10, 2026. Condor received the US$100,000 non-refundable deposit on signing of the Fourth Amendment. No part of the US$1,000,000 balance has been received to date.
The Fifth Amendment reinstates the Fourth Amendment and extends the time for payment of the US$1,000,000 balance. Its key terms are:
- US$200,000 is payable on or before November 16, 2026, and the remaining US$800,000 on or before February 12, 2027;
- Other terms and conditions of the original purchase and sale agreement and its amendments remain in force.
Once the US$1,000,000 balance is received, the remaining consideration payable to Condor is unchanged from the terms announced on August 10, 2026: US$4,050,000 on or before July 31, 2027, or, if that payment is not made, milestone-linked payments aggregating US$6,000,000 with outside dates in 2028, 2029, 2031 and 2033.
Chris Buncic, President and CEO, commented: "Element79 did not make the August payment as expected, and we have given it a short, defined extension to accommodate their planned transaction and related financing. At Huiñac Punta, the wet season has unfortunately moved the start of drilling into Q2 2027, but the project is fully permitted and we are excited to advance it and put the first holes ever drilled into this target when the program gets under way."
Huiñac Punta Drill Program
Condor expects to commence its maiden diamond drilling program at its 100%-owned Huiñac Punta silver-copper-zinc-lead project in the second quarter of 2027, following the wet season in the Peruvian highlands, which affects access and working conditions at the project over the coming months. The program will be the first drilling ever completed at Huiñac Punta and will test a carbonate replacement target beneath and between two clusters of historical Spanish workings. Huiñac Punta is fully permitted for drilling.
The Company expects to fund the program primarily from the US$1,000,000 balance payable by Element79 under the Fifth Amendment, which is due in full on or before February 12, 2027. Further details of the program will be provided before drilling begins.
About Huiñac Punta
Huiñac Punta is a 7,200 hectare property in Huánuco, Peru, located on the eastern portion of the Mesozoic polymetallic carbonate sediment host belt of north-central Peru.
