Business Overview
Aris Mining is a gold producer in Latin America operating two underground gold mines and expansions in Colombia. The Segovia Operations and Marmato Upper Mine produced a combined 226,000 ounces of gold in 2023. With ongoing expansion projects, Segovia and Marmato are targeting to produce approximately 500,000 ounces of gold per year in the second half of 2026. Colombia is home to an emerging industrial gold industry alongside an active small-scale mining sector, presenting a sizeable collaboration opportunity pursued by Aris Mining. We promote the formalization of small-scale mining units into contract mining partners (CMPs) as this process enables all miners to operate in a legal, safe and responsible manner that protects them and the environment.
Aris Mining also holds a 51% joint venture interest and is the operator of the Soto Norte project in Colombia (PSN), where studies are underway on a new, smaller scale development plan, with results expected in early 2025. Local CMPs will also be integrated into the updated PSN design and development plan. Aris Mining plans to present a fully redesigned project to the Colombian regulators, backed by strong local community support. Aris Mining also owns Toroparu, a gold exploration and development project in western Guyana, and the Juby project, an exploration stage gold project in the Abitibi greenstone belt of Ontario, Canada.
Aris Mining is committed to pursuing acquisitions and other growth opportunities to unlock value through scale and diversification. Additional information on Aris Mining and all our projects can be found at www.aris-mining.com, www.sedarplus.ca, and on www.sec.gov.

Q3 2024 Highlights
As announced on October 7, 2024, we reported gold production of 53,608 ounces for Q3 2024, with 47,493 ounces from Segovia and 6,115 ounces from the Marmato Upper Mine. This represents a 9% increase over total gold production in Q2 2024.
Revenue increased by 15% quarter over quarter (QoQ) in Q3 2024 primarily driven by 6% higher average realized gold prices and a 9% increase in gold ounces sold.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
(all figures are expressed in thousands of United States Dollars, unless otherwise stated)
arisheaderlogo.jpg

During Q3 2024 we demonstrated effective cost management at the Segovia Operations (Segovia), as illustrated in Figure 1, with an AISC of $1,540 per ounce sold. This improvement as compared to $1,571 per ounce in Q2 2024 was achieved despite higher realized gold prices, up 6% QoQ, which raised the cost of high grade mill feed purchased from our CMPs.
Figure 1: YTD 2024 Realized Gold Prices and Segovia’s AISC/oz diag1.jpg
The combination of higher gold prices, increased production and effective cost control led to a 37% increase in AISC margin at Segovia reaching $44.1 million in Q3 2024 compared to $32.2 million in Q2 2024, as shown in Figure 2. On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, Segovia generated $104.8 million of total AISC margin, including $12.1 million from third party CMPs.
Figure 2: YTD 2024 Growth in Segovia’s AISC Margin ($ million)
diag2.jpg
Income from mining operations increased 11% YoY to $38.0 million for Q3 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA of $43.0 million for Q3 2024 increased 19% when compared to Q2 2024. Over the past 12 months, we generated adjusted EBITDA of $147.2 million.
Despite generating strong income from mining operations, we recorded a net loss of $2.2 million in Q3 2024. This was primarily due to a $12.8 million loss on financial instruments including $11.0 million in non-cash warrant expense resulting from the 21% increase in Aris Mining share price and a $3.9 million loss on the Gold Notes driven from the impact of the rising gold price on the gold premium component of the Gold Notes. These losses were partially offset by $2.4 million in financial gains from the increase in value of our investments in Denarius.
On an adjusted earnings basis, we generated $12.9 million or $0.08 per share for Q3 2024. Over the rolling 12 months, we have generated adjusted earnings of $42.8 million or $0.29 per share.
As announced on October 7, 2024, we updated Segovia's mineral reserve and resource estimates effective July 31, 2024 reflecting growth of our mineral resources and full replacement of our mineral reserves. These new estimates build on the strong growth in 2023 and support the ongoing Segovia expansion project. The 2025 drilling program is expected to focus on these newly identified near-mine mineral resources, aiming to convert them into mineral reserves with low development costs, and improve our mining planning.

(all figures are expressed in thousands of United States Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

Debt Offering
On October 31, 2024, we successfully completed the offering of $450 million of 8.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (the Notes). We will use a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to redeem the $300 million 6.875% Senior Notes that were issued in 2021. Redemption is expected to occur on or around November 20, 2024. The remaining net proceeds from the offering of $132.3 million are intended to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. This strategic financing extends the maturity of our long-term debt to October 31, 2029, while increasing our cash reserves during our transformational growth period with ongoing expansions at both Segovia and Marmato.
Marmato Lower Mine Expansion and Stream Financing
On November 6, 2024, Aris Mining received a $40 million milestone payment under its precious metals purchase agreement (PMPA) with Wheaton Precious Metals International (WPMI). This payment was triggered when the Marmato Lower Mine project achieved the “25% construction spend” threshold in Q3 2024. Further payments to Aris Mining of $40 million and $42 million are expected to be received next year upon reaching the 50% and 75% construction spend milestones, respectively. Upon reaching commercial production of the Marmato Lower Mine in the second half of 2026, we expect the total Marmato Operations to produce an average of 162,000 ounces of gold per year over a 20-year mine life based on mineral reserves1.
Segovia Expansion Project
In early 2023, a strategic exploration and infill drilling program was launched along with a review of the geological interpretation and resource estimation methodology at Segovia. This effort resulted in a 75% increase in mineral reserves in 2023, extending Segovia’s estimated mine life to nearly seven years based on 2023 production rates. Building on this success, Aris Mining initiated a two-phase expansion of Segovia’s processing facilities from 2,000 tonnes per day (tpd) to 3,000 tpd, enabling us to increase annual gold production from a current rate of 185,000 to 195,000 ounces in 2024, to over 300,000 ounces following completion of the expansion and a ramp-up period. Phase 1 of the processing plant expansion was completed in October 2024, and Phase 2 is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2025. The total cost of the expansion project is estimated at $15 million, with $7.7 million spent as of September 30, 2024.
Outstanding Share Data
As at the date of this MD&A, the Company has 170.9 million common shares issued and outstanding, 6.7 million shares issuable under stock options and 30.5 million shares issuable under share purchase warrants. As of November 12, 2024, all warrants are in-the-money and would result in a cash proceeds of up to $120.8 million if exercised in full; the two outstanding warrant classes expire on December 19, 2024 (up to $6.2 million in proceeds) and July 29, 2025 (up to $114.6 million in proceeds), respectively. A further 6 million common shares are issuable to MDC Industry Holding Company LLC (Mubadala) following receipt of an environmental license to develop PSN.
Outlook Guidance
As announced on October 7, 2024, the Company is targeting gold production of between 185,000 to 195,000 ounces in 2024 from Segovia, increasing to 250,000 ounces in 2025, and over 300,000 ounces in 2026. In addition, the Marmato Upper Mine is on track to deliver approximately 23,000 ounces in 2024, in line with full year 2023 production.
AISC guidance for Segovia in 2024 is expected to be between $1,400 and $1,500 per ounce, as updated in August 2024 when gold prices were around $2,400 per ounce. Currently, our YTD AISC stands at $1,515 per ounce, with $1,482 per ounce for the Owner and On Title CMPs segment, and $1,706 per ounce for the Third Party purchased mill feed segment. Given the expectation for continued high gold prices, which impacts the cost of mill feed purchased from our CMPs, Aris Mining expects that consolidated AISC may surpass the upper limit of the guidance range.

Operating Performance | Segovia
The Segovia Operations are located in Antioquia, Colombia. Gold is produced through a distinctive community-based partnership model. We operate our own mines and collaborate with community-based mining partners, referred to as Contract Mining Partners (CMPs), to increase our total gold production. Some partners work within our infrastructure, while others manage their own mining operations on our tenements. In addition, we purchase high grade mill feed from third-party contractors operating off-title, which further optimizes production and increases operating margins. Approximately 45-55% of Segovia’s gold production is sourced from material mined by CMPs, who are compensated contractually based on the grade and quantity of mill feed delivered and the spot price of gold. In addition, off title mill feed is purchased from third party contractors to optimize production and further increase operating margins.

Production
Gold production at Segovia of 47,493 ounces for Q3 2024 increased 9% over Q2 2024 due to higher tonnes processed with the mill operating at nameplate capacity during Q3 2024. However, when compared to Q3 2023, production was 12% lower due to lower grades in the Q3 2024 mine plan, partially offset by higher tonnes of processed mill feed from owner and CMP mining.
For YTD 2024 gold production of 136,106 ounces represented a decrease of 12,115 ounces, or 8%, compared to the prior year period. The shortfall was primarily caused by lower average gold grade mill feed from owner mining, and the 7 days of downtime for unplanned maintenance at the processing plant during Q2 2024, when compared to the prior year period. This was partially offset by higher grade mill feed purchases from third parties .

Operating Performance | Segovia (continued)
Gold Revenue
Gold revenue at Segovia for Q3 2024 of $118.1 million increased $17.4 million, or 17%, compared to the same period of the prior year. This is attributable to a 28% increase in the average realized gold price offset by a 9% decrease in total ounces sold due to lower comparable production. Gold revenue of $311.8 million for the YTD 2024 increased by $31.9 million, or 11%, compared to the same period of the prior year. This is due to a 19% increase in the average realized gold price, offset by a 6% decrease in total ounces sold.
Cash Costs
Total cash costs increased 20% and 29% for Q3 and YTD 2024, respectively, when compared to the same prior year periods. Mining costs primarily increased due to higher labour costs resulting from government mandated wage increases, the impact of rising gold prices on internal and external CMP payments, inflation and foreign exchange. CMP mill feed purchases are made at a price calculated as a percentage of current spot gold prices, and increased in line with the gold price. Processing costs increased 14% and 20% for the Q3 and YTD 2024 respectively, due to the increase in tonnes of ore processed and inflation. Administration and security costs increased 16% and 32%, respectively, due to higher labour costs and expanded measures for security.
Social Contributions
Social Contributions for Q3 and YTD 2024 increased when compared to the same period of the prior year as they are linked to the prevailing gold price at the time. A one-time adjustment was recorded in Q3 2024 to ensure social payments for the first half of 2024 reflect the higher than expected gold prices.
All In Sustaining Costs (AISC)
Consolidated AISC for Q3 2024 was $1,540 per ounce decreased slightly QoQ due to higher production and lower sustaining capital, partially offset by higher CMP payments due to high grade mill feed purchased at rising gold prices during the quarter.

Operating Performance | Segovia (continued)
AISC Owner Mining & On Title CMPs
AISC for owner mining and on-title CMPs for Q3 2024 of $1,483 per ounce decreased 3% compared to Q2 2024 primarily due to increased gold ounces sold from higher production and lower sustaining capital QoQ, partially offset by the impact of higher gold prices on CMP payments. AISC increased 36% YoY from $1,091 per ounce in YTD 2023 mainly due to higher CMP payments to internal and external mine partners caused by the significant rise in gold price in 2024, and inflation and labour cost increases.
AISC Third party Purchased Mill feed (Off Title CMP)
AISC for third party purchased mill feed for Q3 2024 was $1,834 per ounce, or 3% higher than Q2 2024 mainly due to the increase in gold price QoQ. Third party margins of 25% improved somewhat QoQ from 23% in Q2 2024 and 22% in Q3 2023.
Segovia Expansion Project Update
The Segovia processing plant expansion project will increase processing capacity from 2,000 to 3,000 tonnes per day and is on schedule for completion in Q1 2025. Phase 1 of the work is now complete, with the newly expanded receiving area for our CMPs fully commissioned and handed over to operations in October 2024. The expanded receiving area enhances mill feed capacity and operational efficiencies. Phase 2, which involves installing a second ball mill in the former contractor receiving area, is underway and scheduled for completion in Q1 2025. The new ball mill is expected to increase throughput and gold production by enabling finer grinding and process efficiencies.

Average realized gold price ($/ounce sold)2,3652,2722,0501,9092,2291,891
Gold production
Gold production for YTD 2024 increased by 4% to 17,485 ounces when compared to the same period of 2023. This is primarily attributable to a 5% increase in tonnes processed combined with a 1% increase in grade, partially offset by lower gold recovery. Gold production for Q3 2024 decreased by 4% when compared to the same period in 2023 due to a small decrease in grade.
Gold Revenue
Revenue increased by 13% and 25% for Q3 and YTD 2024, respectively, over the same periods in 2023, primarily driven by higher average realized gold prices. YTD there was a 7% increase in ounces of gold sold, however, for Q3 the ounces of gold sold decreased by 12% when compared to the same period of the prior year. This is attributable to the timing of gold pours and reduced production in Q3 2024. All gold sold from Marmato is subject to the PMPA in place with WPMI.

Development Projects
Marmato Lower Mine
The Marmato Lower Mine project, initiated in 2023, is designed to provide access to the broader porphyry mineralization located beneath the currently operating Marmato Upper Mine. Upon completion, the combined operations of both mines are expected to produce approximately 162,000 ounces of gold annually over a 20-year mine life2.
As of September 30, 2024, the project reached the "25% spend" milestone pursuant to the PMPA with WPMI, with the site access road and portal face now complete and the contractor preparing to initiate work on the twin declines. Both the semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) and ball mill fabrication are progressing on schedule for completion before the end of 2024. On November 6, 2024. we received the first $40 million installment from WPMI to fund the Marmato Lower Mine project. Additional $40 million and $42 million payments are expected to be received at the 50% and 75% spend milestones, respectively.
During Q3 2024, the primary capital expenditures for the Lower Mine construction included $3.7 million for the process plant, $2.1 million for power and electrical infrastructure, $1.8 million for non-process infrastructure, and $0.9 million for underground mining. The project remains on plan and on budget.

1Relates to costs directly associated with the construction of the plant, mining and other surface infrastructure of the Marmato Lower Mine Project, exclusive of costs associated with other ancillary activities supporting the wider Marmato Mine complex.

Soto Norte Project
The PSN team has been integrated into the Aris Mining's management structure and procedures following the acquisition of a controlling interest on June 28, 2024. During the pre-licensing period, the Company will fund certain operating costs in full, while non-operating and project construction expenses will be shared with Mubadala based on pro-rata ownership. New studies are underway with several optimizations including (i) reduced environmental footprint, (ii) building a smaller processing plant with a longer operating life, (iii) adopting a flexible mining method to target higher-grade ore earlier in the mine life, and (iv) optimal water usage. The results of the new study are expected in early 2025.
Toroparu Project
Aris Mining continues to advance the Toroparu project, including analysis of the available options for power generation and access routes to the project and order of magnitude studies on the associated capital and operating costs. We have renewed our environmental license with the Guyana Environmental Protection Agency for a further term of five years. Total capital expenditure for Toroparu is anticipated to be $10 million for the year ending December 31, 2024.

1.The financial statements of the company were recast for the 2023 comparatives due to a non-material error in the warranties liability calculation from 2022 and IAS 1 retroactive application effective January 1, 2024

Revenue
Revenue increased 16% and 11% for the Q3 and YTD 2024, respectively when compared to the same periods of the prior years. This was attributable to an increase in average realized gold price offset by a decrease in gold ounces sold. The decrease in gold ounces sold was primarily due to reduced gold grade combined with unplanned downtime in the mill at Segovia during Q2 2024.

Cost and expenses
The cost of sales for the Q3 and YTD 2024, increased 21% and 25%, respectively, over the same periods of the prior year. This was primarily attributable to the impact of higher cash costs for mill feed supplied by CMPs which is calculated as a percent of current spot gold prices, higher labour costs from government mandated wage increases, inflation and foreign exchange.

arisheaderlogo.jpg

Review of Financial Results (continued)
Depreciation and depletion
Depreciation and depletion for the Q3 and YTD 2024 decreased 18% and 10% YoY, respectively, due to the 75% increase in mineral reserves at Segovia in 2023, effective September 30, 2023. Depletion is recognized on a units of production basis over the total mineral reserve base.
Social contributions
Social Contributions for Q3 and YTD 2024 increased when compared to the same period of the prior year as they are linked to the prevailing gold price at the time. A one-time adjustment was recorded in Q3 2024 to ensure social payments for the first half of 2024 reflect the higher than expected gold prices.
Loss on financial instruments
Aris Mining has financial instruments that are recognized at fair value through profit and loss. In 2024, losses recognized on financial instruments in Q3 2024 and YTD 2024 is primarily attributable to changes in the fair value of our listed warrants, due to a 39% increase in our share price since January 1, 2024. Additional losses were incurred from fair-value adjustments on the Gold Notes, which trade on the Cboe Canada. Our valuation model for the Gold Notes considers credit spread, risk free rates, volatility and gold future prices. The primary factor of the losses incurred in 2024 of the Gold Notes has been the impact of the 45% increase in the gold price YTD on the gold premium component of the Gold Notes.

Interest and accretion
Interest and accretion decreased 4% and 12% for Q3 and YTD 2024, respectively, when compared to the same periods of the prior year. Interest and accretion charges are incurred for interest expense on the Senior Notes, fees associated with financings, and accretion of provisions. The decrease in the YTD 2024 comparison is primarily attributable to the settlement of the note payable to Mubadala in the first quarter of 2023.
Foreign exchange gain
For the YTD 2024 we have recorded a foreign exchange gain compared to the same period of the prior year which was a foreign exchange loss. Aris Mining’s reporting currency is the USD, which is also the functional currency of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The functional currency of the subsidiaries which hold the Segovia Operations and the Marmato Mine is the Colombian Peso (COP). Foreign exchange gains (losses) reported in net income (loss) arise on the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of each entity, and these fluctuate based on foreign exchange rate movements during the period.

Review of Financial Results (continued)
Non-controlling interest
On June 28, 2024, the Company acquired an additional 31% interest in the Soto Norte Project, bringing its total ownership to 51% (Soto Norte Transaction). As a result, income (loss) attributed to the non-controlling interest (NCI) has been recognized for the first time in the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, reflecting the share of net loss attributable to the non-controlling interest during this period.
Acquisition of Additional Interest in the Soto Norte Project
On June 28, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of an additional 31% interest in PSN, increasing its total ownership to 51%. As part of this transaction, Mubadala received 15,750,000 common shares of Aris Mining, representing approximately 9.3% ownership as of June 30, 2024. The market value of the Aris Mining shares on the NYSE issued to Mubadala as of June 30, 2024 was approximately $59.2 million. In addition, Mubadala is entitled to 6 million common shares of Aris Mining upon the receipt of an environmental license for the development of PSN.
This transaction has been accounted for as an asset acquisition under IFRS, with the consideration allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their relative fair values. The shares issued and the contingently issuable shares were recognized in accordance with IFRS 2, Share-based payment, and the value ascribed to the shares was determined with reference to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The costs incurred by the Company in relation to the PSN acquisition have been capitalized in accordance with applicable accounting standards. The total consideration paid was allocated based on the relative fair value of the assets and the liabilities acquired as detailed below:

1.Refer to the Non-GAAP Measures section for a full reconciliation of cash costs ($ per oz sold) and AISC ($ per oz sold) to the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the Interim Financial Statements. Comparative AISC values have been adjusted from amounts previously disclosed following a change in the methodology used to calculate total cash costs ($ per oz sold) and AISC ($ per oz sold) in Q3 of 2022.
2.The comparative information for 2023 was recast as a result of a non-material error related to the warrant liability calculation.
Over the last eight quarters, earnings from mine operations have ranged from $25 million to $42 million, supported by gold sales of between 49,000 and 62,000 ounces per quarter. During this period, net earnings and earnings per share have experienced fluctuations, primarily influenced by revaluations of financial instruments, acquisition and restructuring costs, and gains and losses from fair value adjustments related to investments from acquisitions and divestitures.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company identified a non-material error in the fair value of the listed warrant liability previously reported as at December 31, 2022. As a result of these adjustments, there was a reduction in net income of $5.5 million ($0.06 per share, basic and $0.05 per share diluted) for the three months ended December 31, 2022, a reduction in net income of $1.0 million ($0.01 per share basic and diluted) in the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase in net income of $1.6 million ($0.01 per share basic and diluted) in the three months ended June 30, 2023 and an increase in net income of $1.4 million ($0.01 per share basic and diluted) in the three months ended September 30, 2023. The counter adjustment to each of the above recast adjustments was made on the statement of financial position to the warrant liability.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
Working Capital
Aris Mining had a working capital surplus of $64.3 million (being current assets less current liabilities) at September 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023: $143.9 million), and has sufficient cash and cash equivalents to fund its current operating and administration costs. Subsequent to the quarter-end, the Company bolstered liquidity with its recently closed debt offering on October 31, 2024 for gross proceeds of $450 million. We will use a portion of the proceeds to redeem the $300 million Senior Notes on or around November 20, 2024. The remaining net proceeds received of $132.3 million will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. In addition, we received the first $40 million installment from WPMI to fund the Marmato Lower Mine on November 6, 2024.
The Company is, however, in a growth phase as it progresses its expansion projects, including (1) the construction of the Marmato Lower Mine project, (2) ongoing optimization and exploration activities at the Segovia Operations, (3) ongoing studies at the Toroparu project and (4) the funding of project development expenses of the Soto Norte Project during the pre-licensing period. The Company is in a strong financial position to fund growth projects based on cash flow from operations from the Segovia Operations, cash on hand and the remaining milestone payments from WPMI.
Cash flow from operations
Net cash provided from operations was $31.1 million in Q3 2024, which increased QoQ from $12.4 million in Q2 2024. The increase in cash flow was generated by higher AISC margin from increased gold ounces sold and higher realized gold prices. The positive trend in AISC margin was partially offset by a build up of working capital described below:
Trade and other receivables increased from $49 million at December 31, 2023 to $72.6 million as at September 30, 2024. The increase is attributable to the build of 2024 VAT rated expenditures and administrative delays in the collection of our 2023 VAT rated expenditures. Subsequent to September 30, 2024, we received credit for $29.6 million of VAT, of which $16.2 million has been applied to 2023 corporate income tax with the remainder collected.
Income tax payable has increased from $6.2 million at December 31, 2023 to $27.9 million as at September 30, 2024 due to tax expense recorded of $36.6 million.
Prepaid expense and deposits increased from $4.6 million at December 31, 2023 to $6.2 million as at September 30, 2024 due to corporate activities.
Inventory increased from $38.9 million at December 31, 2023 to $46.2 million as at September 30, 2024 due to a build up of materials and supplies, and ore stockpiles.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased from $69.3 million at December 31, 2023 to $61.7 million as at September 30, 2024 due to the timing of supplier payments made subsequent to December 31, 2023.
Cash used in investing activities
Aris Mining's net cash used in investing activities increased $25.9 million and $12.4 million for Q3 and YTD 2024, respectively, when compared to the same periods of the prior year due to the construction of the Marmato Lower Mine project where we have invested $44.8 million YTD 2024, and the Segovia Operations where we have invested $34.4 million YTD 2024.
Cash used financing activities
Aris Mining's net cash used in financing activities decreased $2.4 million and $24.3 million for Q3 and YTD 2024, respectively, when compared to the same periods of the prior year. This decrease is primarily attributable to $28.8 million received from warrant and stock option exercises YTD 2024, offset by $11 million YTD 2024 cash spent on the Gold Notes' premium payments when compared to the same periods of the prior year.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
Aris Mining has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Transactions with Related Parties
The Company’s related parties include its subsidiaries, affiliates, and key management personnel. The Company’s key management personnel consists of executive and non-executive directors and the Company’s executive officers.
Other than normal-course intercompany transactions and compensation in the form of salaries or directors’ fees, and share based payments (options, PSUs, DSUs) there were no related party transactions.
Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management
The nature of the acquisition, exploration, development and operation of gold properties exposes the Company to risks associated with fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates and credit risk. The Company may at times enter into risk management contracts to mitigate these risks. It is the Company’s policy that no speculative trading in derivatives shall be undertaken.
Gold Notes
Aris Mining has Gold Notes that trade on the Cboe Canada Exchange under the symbol “AMNG.NT.U” as described in note 10 of our 2023 annual financial statements. As of September 30, 2024, the outstanding principal value is $47.5 million. The Gold Notes bear interest at 7.5% per annum, payable monthly. In addition to the interest, the Gold Notes pay a gold premium calculated each quarter as the excess of the floor price of $1,400 compared to the London Bullion Market Association Gold Price on the measurement date. We have not entered into any instruments to hedge against the market movement of gold, and there is risk that rising gold prices would result in higher premiums to be paid. However, there is a natural hedge to this risk as rising gold prices result in higher cash flows from increased AISC margins to be able to fund the potential exposure.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
The Company enters into contracts in the normal course of business that give rise to commitments for future payments. The following table summarizes the contractual maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities, and operating and capital purchase commitments, at September 30, 2024:
Aris Mining’s contractual obligations and commitments (including any related interest) at September 30, 2024 were as follows:
 Less than 1 year1 to 3 years4 to 5 yearsOver 5 yearsTotal
Trade, tax and other payables$89,617$$$$89,617
Reclamation and closure costs1,5443,3456,21227,85038,951

Other purchase and contractual commitments2
375375
Total$143,424$377,273$7,089$30,285$558,071
1.Subsequent to September 30, 2024, the Senior Notes will be redeemed for $310,943 on or around November 20, 2024. On October 31, 2024 Aris Mining successfully completed its offering of $450 million of 8.000% Notes due 2029.
2.Other purchase and contractual commitments include all contractual agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on the Company, including expenditures required to comply with current mining and exploration license requirements.

Aris Mining’s current silver and gold production from the Marmato Mine and future production from the Toroparu Project are subject to the terms of the respective WPMI streaming agreements.
As part of the acquisition of the Soto Norte Project, after the first 5.7 million gold ounces have been produced, Mubadala retained a streaming interest of 7.35% of payable gold and 100% of payable silver on the Soto Norte Project. Mubadala will make payments upon delivery equal to 15% of the spot gold and silver prices. In addition, subsequent to the transaction, Aris Mining has the obligation to fund Mubadala's 49% share of certain operating costs until the earlier of the receipt of the environmental license for the Soto Norte Project or December 31, 2027.
Liquidity risk
Associated with the contractual obligations and commitments summarized above, the Company manages its liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecasted cash flow requirements, as well as any requirements that arise by virtue of the financial instruments held by the Company. The Company believes it has sufficient cash resources to pay its obligations associated with its financial liabilities as at September 30, 2024.
Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in and potentially subject to legal actions and proceedings. The Company records provisions for such claims when considered material and an outflow of resources is considered probable.
The Company is subject to tax audits from various tax authorities on an ongoing basis. As a result, from time to time, tax authorities may disagree with the positions and conclusions taken by the Company in its tax filings or legislation could be amended or interpretations of current legislation could change, and any of these events could lead to reassessments. The Company records provisions for such claims when it determines it is not probable that the taxation authority will accept its filing position.
No such provisions have been recorded by the Company.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This document refers to a number of non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios, which are not measures recognized under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS or by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios described below do not have standardized meanings under IFRS, may differ from those used by other issuers, and may not be comparable to similar financial measures and ratios reported by other issuers. These financial measures and ratios have been derived from our financial statements and applied on a consistent basis as appropriate. We disclose these financial measures and ratios because we believe they assist readers in understanding the results of our operations and financial position and provide further information about our financial results to investors. These measures should not be considered in isolation or used as a substitute for other measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
Total cash costs
Total cash costs and total cash costs per ounce sold are a non-GAAP financial measure and a non-GAAP ratio, respectively, and are common financial performance measures in the gold mining industry; however, they have no standard meaning under IFRS. Total cash costs per ounce sold are calculated by dividing total cash costs by volume of gold ounces sold. Aris Mining believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS such as cost of sales, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance and ability to generate operating income and cash flow from its mining operations. Management uses this metric as an important tool to monitor operating costs. Management has included a secondary total cash cost and total cash cost per ounce measure, that includes the cost of royalties incurred on precious metal shipments from its Segovia Operations. This measure adds back the cost of royalties to total cash cost and is intended to be reflective of the total cash cost associated with operating in Colombia. Adoption of the World Gold Standard methodology is voluntary and other companies may quantify this measure differently because of different underlying principles and policies applied.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (continued)
All-in sustaining costs
AISC and AISC ($ per oz sold) are a non-GAAP financial measure and a non-GAAP ratio, respectively, and are common financial performance measures in the gold mining industry; however, they have no standard meaning under IFRS. AISC ($ per oz sold) is calculated by dividing AISC by volume of gold ounces sold. The methodology for calculating AISC was developed internally and is calculated below, and readers should be aware that this measure does not have a standardized meaning. This non‐GAAP measure provides investors with transparency to the total period‐attributable AISC of producing an ounce of gold and may aid in the comparison with other gold mining peers. Management uses this metric as an important tool to monitor operating costs. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (continued)
Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share
Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share (basic) are a non-GAAP financial measure and non-GAAP ratios, respectively, and are common financial performance measures in the gold mining industry; however, they have no standard meaning under IFRS. Adjusted net earnings per share (basic) are calculated by dividing adjusted net earnings by the number of shares outstanding on a basic basis, respectively.
Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share (basic) are used by management and investors to measure the underlying operating performance of the Company. Presenting these measures from period to period helps management and investors evaluate earnings trends more readily in comparison with results from prior periods.
Adjusted net earnings is defined as net income adjusted to exclude specific items that are significant but not reflective of the underlying operating performance of the Company, such as: share-based payments, change in fair value of financial instruments, foreign exchange gains and losses, foreign exchange gains, income and losses from equity accounting in investees, and other non-recurring items. Adjusted net earnings per share amounts are calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a basic basis as determined under IFRS. In the table below the Company has provided the reconciliation of adjusted net earnings to the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the Interim Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (continued)
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are Non-GAAP financial measures and are common financial performance measures in the gold mining industry; however, they have no standard meaning under IFRS. EBITDA represents earnings before interest (including non-cash accretion of financial obligations and lease obligations), income taxes and depreciation, depletion and amortization.
EBITDA is then adjusted to exclude specific items that are significant but not reflective of the underlying operating performance of the Company, such as: share-based payments, change in fair value of financial instruments, foreign exchange gains and losses, income and losses from equity accounting in investees, and losses on deferred and current income taxes, and other non-recurring items (Adjusted EBITDA).

Accounting matters
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed at each period end. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. For further information on our significant judgements and accounting estimates, refer to note 4 of our audited annual consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The significant judgments, estimates and assumptions made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies are the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2023 and 2022, in addition to the following:
Asset Acquisition - The Soto Norte Project
The assessment of whether an acquisition of assets and liabilities meets the definition of a business or whether it is an acquisition of assets requires judgment. In this assessment, management considers whether the acquired set of assets and activities consists of inputs and a substantive process and whether these inputs and substantive processes have the ability to contribute to the creation of outputs. Management concluded that the Soto Norte Project did not constitute a business and accounted for the acquisition as an asset acquisition
Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the Soto Norte Project
Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an asset acquisition requires management to make estimates and assumptions, giving consideration to both market and income-based valuation methodologies to determine the fair value of the exploration project to be recognized. In the case of an asset acquisition, the measurement of common shares and contingently issuable common shares paid as consideration for the acquisition is also determined with reference to the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
Determination of Control or Significant Influence in the Soto Norte Project
The Soto Norte Transaction resulted in the Company obtaining a 51% interest in the Soto Norte Project. Judgment is required to determine whether the Company controls or has significant influence over the Soto Norte Project, which impacts the accounting treatment to consolidate or account for the investment using the equity method, respectively. The assessment required judgment related to factors including, but not limited to, the relevant activities of the Soto Norte Project, and the substantive rights of the shareholders to approve, amongst other things, operating policies, budgets, and financing plans. The Company determined that it had obtained control over Soto Norte as of June 28, 2024.

Accounting matters (continued)
Changes in Accounting Policies
Aris Mining’s Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were prepared in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the IASB, under IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting and were approved by the Company’s board of directors on November 12, 2024. These financial statements were prepared using the same basis of presentation, accounting policies and methods of computation as outlined in Note 3, Material accounting policies in Aris Mining’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.
New accounting standards issued | IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements
The IASB issued an amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements that clarifies that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current depends on the rights existing at the end of the reporting period as opposed to the expectations of exercising the right for settlement of the liability. The amendments were effective January 1, 2024 and have been applied retrospectively. Under existing IAS 1 requirements, companies classify a liability as current when they do not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting date. The IASB has removed the requirement for a right to be unconditional and instead now requires that a right to defer settlement must exist at the reporting date and have substance. The amendments therefore resulted in a change in the classification of liabilities that can be settled in an entity's own shares. Previously, counterparty conversion options were not considered when classifying the related liabilities as current or non-current. Subsequent to the application of the amendments, when a liability includes a counterparty conversion option that may be settled by a transfer of an entity's own shares, the Company takes into account the conversion option in classifying the liability as current or non-current. The Company's convertible debentures and warrant liabilities were impacted by the amendments.
Previously, the Company's convertible debentures were recorded as long-term debt and were classified as current when the instrument was maturing within 12 months after the reporting period. However, given the holders of the debenture have the option from issuance to maturity to convert the principal into common shares of the Company, the related liability is classified as current as at January 1, 2023 under the revised policy because the conversion option can be exercised by the holders within 12 months after the reporting period. Similarly, the Company's warrant liabilities were previously classified as non-current and warrants expiring within 12 months after the reporting period were classified as current. Under the revised policy, the warrant liabilities are classified as current as at January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023 because the warrants can be exercised by the holders at any time subsequent to issuance.
As a result of the adoption of the IAS 1 amendments, the statement of financial position as at January 1, 2023 has been restated, with a reclassification of $13.2 million from non-current portion of long-term debt to current portion of long-term debt, and a reclassification of $21.8 million from non-current portion of warrant liabilities to current portion of warrant liabilities. The statement of financial position as at December 31, 2023 has also been restated, with a reclassification of $11.0 million from non-current portion of warrant liabilities to current portion of warrant liabilities.
There was no impact on the statement of income (loss), statement of other comprehensive income (loss), statement of equity, and statement of cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Accounting matters (continued)
Adopted accounting policies not previously disclosed
The following previously adopted accounting policies not disclosed in the annual financial statements were applied in preparing the interim financial statements.
Non-Controlling interest
Non-controlling interest represents equity interests in subsidiaries owned by outside parties. The share of net assets of subsidiaries attributable to non-controlling interests is presented as a component of equity. The non-controlling interest is allocated a share of net income and other comprehensive income, which is recognized directly in equity even if the results of the non-controlling interest have a deficit balance.
The Company recognizes transactions with non-controlling interest as transactions with equity shareholders. Changes in the Company's ownership interest in subsidiaries that do not result in the loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.
The Company has elected an accounting policy to measure the non-controlling interest in an acquisition of assets that does not constitute a business at either the fair value of the non-controlling interest or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the net assets recognized. The Company measured the non-controlling interest in the Soto Norte Project at the date the Company acquired control based on the proportionate share of the entity's recognized net assets.
Measurement of previously held interest in an asset acquisition
In an acquisition of assets that does not constitute a business, the previously held interest forms a part of the consideration paid for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the time control of the assets and liabilities is obtained. The Company has elected an accounting policy not to remeasure the carrying amount of previously held investments in associates on acquisition of additional interests that do not constitute a business.

Risks and Uncertainties
Exploration, development and mining of precious metals involves numerous inherent risks. As such, Aris Mining is subject to financial, operational and political risks that could have a significant impact on its profitability and levels of operating cash flows. Although Aris Mining assesses and minimizes these risks by applying high operating standards, including careful management and planning of its facilities, hiring qualified personnel and developing their skills through training and development programs, these risks cannot be eliminated.
Readers are encouraged to read and consider the risk factors which are more specifically described under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's AIF for the year ended December 31, 2023 dated as of March 6, 2024, which is available on www.aris-mining.com, under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and in its filings with the SEC at www.sec.gov.
If any of these risks materialize into actual events or circumstances or other possible additional risks and uncertainties of which the Company is currently aware or which it considers to be material in relation to the Company's business actually occur, the Company's assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations (including future results of operations), business and business prospects, are likely to be materially and adversely affected. In such circumstances, prices of the Company's securities could decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment. In addition, such risk factors could cause actual amounts to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements related to the Company.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Internal controls over financial reporting
Disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance that all material information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to senior management as appropriate and recorded, processed, summarized and reported to allow timely decisions with respect to required disclosure, including in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted by it under securities legislation.
The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, are responsible for establishing adequate internal controls over financial reporting.
Changes in internal controls
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, there were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
Limitations of controls and procedures
The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the control. The design of any systems of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements (continued)
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information and forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information or statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information or statements. The Company has and continues to disclose in its Management's Discussion and Analysis and other publicly filed documents, changes to material factors or assumptions underlying the forward-looking information and forward-looking statements and to the validity of the information, in the period the changes occur. The forward-looking statements and forward-looking information are made as of the date hereof and the Company disclaims any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements or forward-looking information contained herein to reflect future results, unless so required by Canadian securities laws. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and information.
This MD&A contains information that may constitute future-orientated financial information or financial outlook information (collectively, “FOFI”) about the Company’s prospective financial performance, financial position or cash flows, all of which is subject to the same assumptions, risk factors, limitations and qualifications as set forth above.

1.    Nature of Operations
Aris Mining Corporation (the “Company” or “Aris Mining”), is a company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. The address of the Company’s registered and records office is 2900 – 550 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 0A3. The Company’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbol “ARIS” and on the NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American”) under the symbol “ARMN”.
Aris Mining is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and operation of gold properties in Colombia, Guyana and Canada. Aris Mining operates the Segovia Operations and Marmato Mine in Colombia. On June 28, 2024, the Company increased its interest in the Soto Norte Project from 20% to 51% (Note 5) located within Colombia. Aris Mining also owns the advanced stage Toroparu Project in Guyana and the Juby Project in Ontario, Canada.
2.    Basis of Presentation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements, as approved by the Company's Board of Directors on November 12, 2024, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Certain disclosures required by IFRS have been condensed or omitted in the following note disclosures or are disclosed or have been disclosed on an annual basis only. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (“annual financial statements”), which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value, and are presented in U.S. dollars. They have been prepared on a going concern basis assuming that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due for the foreseeable future.
3.    Summary of Material Accounting Policies
The material accounting policies are the same as those applied in preparing the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except as disclosed below. These financial statements comprise the financial results of the Company and its subsidiaries. On June 28, 2024, the Company acquired an additional 31% interest in the Soto Norte Project ("PSN") and determined that the Company obtained control as a result of its 51% ownership interest. The remaining 49% interest in the Soto Norte Project not held by the Company is presented as a non-controlling interest (Note 14).

3.    Summary of Material Accounting Policies (cont.)
The following previously adopted accounting policies not disclosed in the annual financial statements were applied in preparing these interim financial statements.

Non-Controlling interest

Non-controlling interest represents equity interests in subsidiaries owned by outside parties. The share of net assets of subsidiaries attributable to non-controlling interests is presented as a component of equity. The non-controlling interest is allocated a share of net income and other comprehensive income, which is recognized directly in equity even if the results of the non-controlling interest have a deficit balance.

The Company recognizes transactions with non-controlling interest as transactions with equity shareholders. Changes in the Company's ownership interest in subsidiaries that do not result in the loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

The Company elected to measure the non-controlling interest of MDC Industry Holding Company LLC ("Mubadala") in the Soto Norte Project at the date the Company acquired control based on the proportionate share of the entity's recognized net assets (Note 5).

Measurement of previously held interest in an asset acquisition

In an acquisition of assets that does not constitute a business, the previously held interest forms a part of the consideration paid for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the time control of the assets and liabilities is obtained. The Company has elected an accounting policy not to remeasure the carrying amount of previously held investments in associates on acquisition of additional interests that do not constitute a business.

New accounting standards issued

IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements

The IASB issued an amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements that clarifies that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current depends on the rights existing at the end of the reporting period as opposed to the expectations of exercising the right for settlement of the liability. The amendments were effective January 1, 2024 and have been applied retrospectively. Under previous IAS 1 requirements, companies classify a liability as current when they do not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting date. The IASB removed the requirement for a right to be unconditional and instead now requires that a right to defer settlement must exist at the reporting date and have substance. The amendments therefore resulted in a change in the classification of liabilities that can be settled in an entity's own shares. Previously, counterparty conversion options were not considered when classifying the related liabilities as current or non-current. Subsequent to the application of the amendments, when a liability includes a counterparty conversion option that may be settled by a transfer of an entity's own shares, the Company takes into account the conversion option in classifying the liability as current or non-current. The Company's convertible debentures and warrant liabilities were impacted by the amendments.

Previously, the Company's convertible debentures were recorded as long-term debt and were classified as current when the instrument was maturing within 12 months after the reporting period. However, given the holders of the debenture have the option from issuance to maturity to convert the principal into common shares of the Company, the related liability is classified as current as at January 1, 2023 under the revised policy because the conversion option can be exercised by the holders within 12 months after the reporting period. Similarly, the Company's warrant liabilities were previously classified as non-current and warrants expiring within 12 months after the reporting period were classified as current. Under the revised policy, the warrant liabilities are classified as current as at January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023 because the warrants can be exercised by the holders at any time subsequent to issuance.

As a result of the adoption of the IAS 1 amendments, the statement of financial position as at January 1, 2023 has been restated, with a reclassification of $13.2 million from non-current portion of long-term debt to current portion of long-term debt, and a reclassification of $21.8 million from non-current portion of warrant liabilities to current portion of warrant liabilities. The statement of financial position as at December 31, 2023 has also been restated, with a reclassification of $11.0 million from non-current portion of warrant liabilities to current portion of warrant liabilities.

IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in the Financial Statements” (“IFRS 18”) replacing IAS 1. IFRS 18 introduces categories and defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, disclosures on management-defined performance measures, and requirements to improve the aggregation and disaggregation of information in the financial statements. As a result of IFRS 18, amendments to IAS 7 were also issued to require that entities use the operating profit subtotal as the starting point for the indirect method of reporting cash flows from operating activities and also to remove presentation alternatives for interest and dividends paid and received. Similarly, amendments to IAS 33 “Earnings per Share” were issued to permit disclosure of additional earnings per share figures using any other component of the statement of profit or loss, provided the numerator is a total or subtotal defined under IFRS 18. IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the standard on its financial statements.

4.    Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions
Judgments, estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The significant judgments, estimates and assumptions made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies are the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2023 and 2022 (annual financial statements), in addition to the following:

The assessment of whether an acquisition of assets and liabilities meets the definition of a business or whether it is an acquisition of assets requires judgment. In this assessment, management considers whether the acquired set of assets and activities consists of inputs and a substantive process and whether these inputs and substantive processes have the ability to contribute to the creation of outputs. Management concluded that the Soto Norte Project did not constitute a business and accounted for the acquisition as an asset acquisition (Note 5).

Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the Soto Norte Project

Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an asset acquisition requires management to make estimates and assumptions, giving consideration to both market and income-based valuation methodologies to determine the fair value of the exploration project to be recognized. In the case of an asset acquisition, the measurement of common shares and contingently issuable common shares paid as consideration for the acquisition is also determined with reference to the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

4.    Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions (cont.)
Determination of Control or Significant Influence in the Soto Norte Project

The Soto Norte Transaction resulted in the Company obtaining a 51% interest in the Soto Norte Project. Judgment is required to determine whether the Company controls or has significant influence over the Soto Norte Project, which impacts the accounting treatment to consolidate or account for the investment using the equity method, respectively. The assessment required judgment related to factors including, but not limited to, the relevant activities of the Soto Norte Project, and the substantive rights of the shareholders to approve, amongst other things, operating policies, budgets, and financing plans. The Company determined that it had obtained control over Soto Norte as of June 28, 2024.

5. Acquisition of Additional Interest in the Soto Norte Project
On June 28, 2024, the Company acquired an additional 31% interest in the Soto Norte Project from Mubadala, resulting in the Company increasing its ownership interest in the Soto Norte Project to 51% and obtaining control over the Soto Norte Project (the "Soto Norte Transaction" or "PSN Transaction").

The consideration for this acquisition was comprised of:

15,750,000 common shares issued to Mubadala, and
6,000,000 common shares issuable to Mubadala upon the receipt of an environmental license for the Soto Norte Project.

The transaction did not qualify as a business combination under IFRS 3, Business Combinations, as significant inputs and processes that together constitute a business were not identified, given the early stage of exploration and evaluation of PSN. As such, the acquisition has been accounted for as an asset acquisition, and the consideration paid was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair value. Acquisition costs incurred by the Company related to the PSN Transaction have been capitalized as part of the consideration paid.

The total consideration paid was allocated based on the relative fair value of the assets and the liabilities acquired as shown below:

5. Acquisition of Additional Interest in the Soto Norte Project (cont.)
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities (each of which is a Level 1 fair value measurement) was determined to approximate their carrying amounts. The Company retained an independent valuation specialist to assist with the determination of the fair value of the mining interests, plant and equipment, and exploration and evaluation assets acquired, with consideration given to both market and income-based valuation methodologies (a Level 3 fair value measurement). The Company estimated the fair value of the Soto Norte Project using a market multiples approach based on comparable public companies that operate in similar jurisdictions and precedent transactions. The fair value of the reclamation and rehabilitation provision was determined using the estimated inflated undiscounted costs to be incurred with respect to remediation of current disturbances and reclamation activities related to the existing infrastructure of the Soto Norte Project.

Mubadala also retained a streaming interest of 7.35% of payable gold and 100% of payable silver on the Soto Norte Project, applicable to incremental production after the first 5.7 million ounces of gold have been produced. If upon expiry or termination of the streaming arrangement, the Joint Venture (of which is 51% owned by the Company) has not delivered enough gold and silver to fully reduce the $10.0 million deposit balance to zero, the Joint Venture is required to pay any remaining deposit balance in cash. The streaming obligation has been recognized at fair value using a discounted cash flow model using discount rates that reflect the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows at the acquisition date and has been classified as an other long-term liability.

7.    Investments in Associates (cont.)
a)Soto Norte

On June 28, 2024, the Company acquired an additional 31% interest in the Soto Norte Project, resulting in the Company obtaining control and as a result, its previously-held interest was reclassified (Note 5).

The following table summarizes the change in the carrying amount of the Company’s investment in Soto Norte:

As part of the acquisition of the Company's initial 20% interest in the Soto Norte Project on April 12, 2022, the Company recognized a note payable related to the deferred $50 million tranche payment due to Mubadala. The note incurred interest at 7.5% and was amortized using the effective interest method, resulting in an effective interest rate of 11.87%. The note was repaid on March 21, 2023.

7.    Investments in Associates (cont.)
b)Denarius
During the year ended December 31, 2023, Denarius Metals Corp. (“Denarius”) completed the following equity offerings:
a rights offering in January 2023 whereby the Company participated for less than the Company's pro rata ownership interest and acquired 3,750,000 common shares in Denarius for cash consideration of $1.1 million, decreasing its equity interest in Denarius to approximately 24.9%; and
a private placement in April 2023 in which the Company did not participate, decreasing the Company's equity investment in Denarius to approximately 17.2%.
As a result of the reduced ownership percentage subsequent to the private placement, the Company concluded that it no longer had significant influence in the investee, and therefore, discontinued accounting for the investment using the equity method from April 4, 2023, being the date of the completion of the private placement and began carrying the investment at fair value through profit or loss. The Company recorded a loss on discontinuation of the equity method of $10.0 million and reclassified the fair value of the Denarius investment of $3.5 million to other financial assets. The loss was calculated as the difference between the fair value (as determined based on the current market price of Denarius) of Aris Mining’s retained interest and the carrying amount of the investment in Denarius at the date the equity method was discontinued, including a $1.9 million loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income that was reclassified to profit and loss on discontinuation of the equity method.
The following table summarizes the change in the carrying amount of the Company’s investment in Denarius:

During the year-ended December 31, 2023, the Company also subscribed for C$5.0 million of Denarius Convertible Debentures ("Denarius Debenture"). The Denarius Debenture is due, in cash, on October 19, 2028 and may be converted into common shares of Denarius at a conversion price of C$0.45 per share. The Denarius Debenture pays interest monthly at a rate of 12.0% per annum and also pays quarterly in cash an amount equal to the Gold Premium (as defined below) multiplied by the principal amount of the Denarius Debenture. The Gold Premium is calculated as the percentage equal to (i) 25% of the amount, if any, by which the London P.M. Fix exceeds $1,800 per ounce, divided by (ii) $1,800. Approval by the shareholders of Denarius is required in order for the Company to convert such amount of Denarius Debentures that would result in the Company's ownership interest in Denarius increasing above 19.9%.

10.     Long-term Debt (cont.)

The key terms of the Gold Notes include:
The Gold Notes are denominated in units of $1.00.
The Gold Notes are non-callable, are secured over all assets of Aris Holdings, will be repaid over a seven-year term, and mature on August 26, 2027.
The Gold Notes represent senior secured obligations of Aris Holdings, ranking pari passu with all present and future senior indebtedness, including the Wheaton stream financing (Note 12), and senior to all present and future subordinated indebtedness of Aris Holdings.
The Gold Notes bear cash interest at a rate of 7.5% per annum, payable monthly.
An amount of physical gold will be set aside monthly by Aris Holdings in an escrow account (the “Gold Escrow Account”) to be used to fund the principal payments (the “Amortizing Payments”). Amortizing Payments are based on a prescribed number of ounces of gold and a $1,400 per ounce floor price.
To fund the quarterly Amortizing Payments, within five business days after the 15th day of each of February, May, August and November (the “Measurement Dates”), the gold accumulated in the Gold Escrow Account will be sold and the proceeds will be paid to holders on the following basis:
If the afternoon per ounce London Bullion Market Association Gold Price (the “London PM Fix”) on the Measurement Dates is above the $1,400 per ounce floor price, Aris Holdings will make a total cash payment to the holders of the Gold Notes equal to that number of gold ounces sold multiplied by the London PM Fix.
The Gold Premium will be the portion of the gold sale proceeds attributed to the excess of the London PM Fix over the $1,400 per ounce floor price and will not reduce the principal amount of the Gold Notes outstanding.
If the London PM Fix is at or below the $1,400 per ounce floor price, Aris Holdings will make a cash payment to the holders of the Gold Notes equal to the applicable Amortizing Payment. Any shortfall in the proceeds from the sale of the gold ounces below $1,400 per ounce will be paid by Aris Holdings.
Aris Holdings will use commercially reasonable efforts to hedge the $1,400 per ounce floor price for the Amortizing Payments on a rolling four-quarters basis.
The Gold Notes trade on the Cboe Canada Exchange under the symbol “AMNG.NT.U”

Payments made to Gold Note holders are as follows:

11.    Provision (cont.)
a)Reclamation and rehabilitation provision
As of September 30, 2024, the Company estimated the inflated undiscounted costs to be incurred with respect to future mine closure and reclamation activities related to the existing mining operation of the Marmato mine to be COP 42.5 billion (December 31, 2023 – COP 46.2 billion), equivalent to $10.2 million at the September 30, 2024 exchange rate (December 31, 2023 - $12.1 million).
As of September 30, 2024, the Company estimated the inflated undiscounted costs to be incurred with respect to future mine closure and reclamation activities related to the existing mining operation of the Segovia Operations to be COP 81.6 billion (December 31, 2023 – COP 81.8 billion), equivalent to $19.6 million at the September 30, 2024 exchange rate (December 31, 2023 - $21.4 million).

As of September 30, 2024, the Company estimated the inflated undiscounted costs to be incurred with respect to remediation of current disturbances and reclamation activities related to the existing infrastructure of the Soto Norte Project to be COP 38.0 billion, equivalent to $9.1 million at the September 30, 2024 exchange rate.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used to determine the decommissioning provision:

Segovia Operations

2.97 %9.58 %
PSN 2025-20682.51 %9.69 %
b)Environmental fees
The Company’s mining and exploration activities are subject to Colombian laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. Colombian regulations provide for fees applicable to entities discharging effluents to river basins. The local environmental authority in Segovia has issued two resolutions assessing fees totaling COP 34.6 billion ($8.3 million), which the Company is disputing. The Company has a provision in the amount of COP 21.0 billion ($5.1 million) related to the present value of its best estimate of the potential liability for these fees (December 31, 2023 – COP 20.9 billion equivalent to approximately $5.0 million).
c)Health plan obligations
The health plan obligation of COP 46.5 billion (approximately $11.2 million) is based on an actuarial report prepared as at December 31, 2023 with an inflation rate of 6.6% and a discount rate of 10.9%. The Company is currently paying approximately COP 0.2 billion (approximately less than $0.1 million) monthly to fund the obligatory health plan contributions. At September 30, 2024, non-current cash in trust includes approximately $0.9 million deposited in a restricted cash account as security against this obligation (December 31, 2023 - $0.9 million).
d)Claims
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in and potentially subject to legal actions and proceedings. The Company records provisions for such claims when considered material and an outflow of resources is considered probable.
The Company is subject to tax audits from various tax authorities on an ongoing basis. As a result, from time to time, tax authorities may disagree with the positions and conclusions taken by the Company in its tax filings or legislation could be amended or interpretations of current legislation could change, and any of these events could lead to reassessments. The Company records provisions for such claims when it determines it is not probable that the taxation authority will accept its filing position.

No such provisions have been recorded by the Company.

a)Marmato
The Company is party to a Precious Metals Purchase Agreement at the Marmato Mine (the “Marmato PMPA”) with Wheaton Precious Metals International ("WPMI"). Under the arrangement, WPMI will provide aggregate funding of $175 million. Total funds received to date are $53 million. The remaining balance of $122 million to be received during the construction and development of the Marmato Lower Mine, with construction milestones at 25% ($40 million), 50% ($40 million), and 75% ($42 million).

The contract will be settled by the Company delivering precious metal credits to WPMI. The Company recorded the deposit received as deferred revenue and recognizes amounts in revenue as gold and silver are delivered under the PMPA. Each period management estimates the cumulative amount of the deferred revenue obligation that has been satisfied and, therefore, recognized as revenue.
Accretion will be capitalized during the development of the Marmato Lower Mine (Note 8).

The following are the key inputs for the Marmato PMPA contract as of September 30, 2024:

a)Authorized
Unlimited number of common shares with no par value.
b)Issued and fully paid
As at September 30, 2024, the Company had 170,626,452 common shares issued and outstanding (December 31, 2023 – 137,569,590 common shares). During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued a total of 2,555,899 common shares for the exercise of stock options and 11,340,437 common shares for the exercise of warrants.
As described in Note 5, the Company issued 15,750,000 common shares to Mubadala and will issue 6,000,000 common shares upon the receipt of an environmental license for the PSN. The Company determined the fair value of the issued and contingently issuable shares to be $180.9 million and used the relative fair value method to allocate such amount between the common shares and the contingently issuable shares. The fair value of the contingently issuable shares, which are recognized in contributed surplus, was determined using a Black-Scholes model and applying an estimated probability of issuance. The value ascribed to the 15,750,000 common shares was $152.0 million and the ascribed value to the 6,000,000 contingently issuable common shares was $28.9 million.

Valuation inputs for Unlisted Warrants

The fair value of the Unlisted Warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and Level 2 fair value inputs as follows:
Valuation InputsAris Unlisted Warrants
Expected volatility52 %
Liquidity discount17 %
Risk-free interest rate2.91 %
Expected life of warrants3 months
Dividend yield%

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company identified a non-material error in the fair value of the listed warrant liability previously reported. As a result, the statement of income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 has been recast, with the loss on financial instruments decreasing by $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and the loss on financial instruments decreasing by $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 . The net impact of the recast for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was to increase net income previously reported of $12.4 million ($0.09 basic and $0.09 diluted earnings per share) to a net income of $13.8 million ($0.10 basic and $0.10 diluted earnings per share), and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was to increase net income previously reported of $15.3 million ($0.11 basic and $0.10 diluted earnings per share) to a net income of $17.4 million ($0.13 basic and $0.11 diluted earnings per share).

There was no impact on the statement of cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, other than the amounts reported for net income (loss) and gain on financial instruments changing by the amounts described above within the Operating Activities section of the statement of cash flows.

Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by adjusting the basic earnings per share to take into account the after-tax effect of interest and other finance costs associated with dilutive convertible debentures as if they were converted at the beginning of the period, and the effects of potentially dilutive stock options and share purchase warrants calculated using the treasury stock method. When the impact of potentially dilutive securities increases the earnings per share or decreases the loss per share, they are excluded for purposes of the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

The following table lists the number of warrants, stock options and Convertible Debenture which were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. Instruments were excluded because either the instruments were not vested, the exercise prices exceeded the average market value of the common shares or the impact of including the in the money securities were anti-dilutive to EPS.

15.    Financial Risk Management
The nature of the acquisition, exploration, development and operation of gold properties exposes the Company to risks associated with fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates and credit risk. The Company may at times enter into risk management contracts to mitigate these risks. It is the Company’s policy that no speculative trading in derivatives shall be undertaken.

a)Financial instrument risk
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 – inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, cash in trust, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and, taxes payable approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature.

The Senior Notes are recognized at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. An observable fair value of the Company’s Senior Notes has been estimated using the trading value of the bonds on the Singapore exchange which indicate a fair value of $299.2 million (carrying amount - $294.5 million).

Financial liabilities measured at FVTPL on a recurring basis include the warrant derivative liabilities, the DSU payable, PSU payable, the Convertible Debenture and gold notes which are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The levels in the fair value hierarchy into which the Company’s financial assets and liabilities are recognized in the statements of financial position at fair value are categorized as follows:
September 30, 2024December 31, 2023
Level 1Level 2Level 1Level 2
Gold Notes (Note 10b)
$ $67,543 $— $63,310 
Warrant liabilities (Note 13c)
26,672 757 26,053 553 
DSU and PSU liabilities (Note 13g,f)
2,043 4,464 1,903 2,804 
Investments and other assets (Note 7b)
5,220 8,524 4,254 5,505 
Convertible Debentures (Note 10c)
  — 13,913 
Total$33,935 $81,288 $32,210 $86,085 

At September 30, 2024, there were no financial assets and liabilities measured and recognized at fair value on a non-recurring basis. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, and no financial assets or liabilities measured and recognized at fair value that would be categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy during the period.

b)Credit risk

December 31,

Trade
$2,427 $3,505 
VAT receivable67,530 40,045 
Tax recoverable1,890 4,503 
Other, net of allowance for doubtful accounts830 1,386 
Total$72,677 $49,439 

The exposure to credit risk arises through the failure of a third party to meet its contractual obligations to the Company. The Company’s exposure to credit risk primarily arises from its cash balances (which are held with highly rated Canadian, Colombian and other international financial institutions) and accounts receivable. The timing of collection of the VAT recoverable is in accordance with Government of Colombia’s filing process. As at September 30, 2024, the Company expects to recover the outstanding amount of current VAT and HST receivable in the next 12 months.

15.    Financial Risk Management (cont.)
Credit risk associated with trade accounts receivable arises from the Company’s delivery of its production to international customers from whom it receives 97.0% - 99.5% of the sales proceeds in the case of gold and silver, and 90% of sales proceeds in the case of concentrates, shortly after delivery of its production to an agreed upon transfer point in Colombia. The balance is received within a short settlement period thereafter, once final metal content has been agreed between the Company and the customer.

c)Liquidity risk
The Company manages its liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast cash flow requirements. The Company believes it has sufficient cash resources to pay its obligations associated with its financial liabilities as at September 30, 2024. The Company’s undiscounted commitments at September 30, 2024 are as follows:
Less than 1 year1 to 3 years4 to 5 yearsOver 5 yearsTotal
Trade, tax and other payables$89,617 $— $— $— $89,617 
Reclamation and closure costs1,544 3,345 6,212 27,850 38,951

Other contractual commitments375 — — — 375 
Total$143,424 $377,273 $7,089 $30,285 $558,071 
Following receipt of funds under the Marmato and Toroparu PMPA, Aris Mining’s silver and gold production from the Marmato Mine and Toroparu Project is subject to the terms of the PMPA with WPMI.
As part of the PSN Transaction, Mubadala retained a streaming interest of 7.35% of payable gold and 100% of payable silver on PSN. The stream applies to incremental production after the first 5.7 million ounces of gold have been produced. Mubadala will make payments upon delivery equal to 15% of the spot gold and silver prices (Note 5).

Subsequent to the PSN Transaction (Note 5), Aris Mining has the obligation to fund Mubadala's 49% share of certain operating costs until the earlier of the receipt of the environmental license for the Soto Norte Project or December 31, 2027.

d)Foreign currency risk
The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. Such exposure arises primarily from:
Translation of subsidiaries that have a functional currency, such as COP, which differ from the USD functional currency of the Company. The impact of such exposure is recorded through other comprehensive income (loss).
Translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, such as the Canadian dollar (“C$”) and Guyanese Dollar (“GYD”). The impact of such exposure is recorded in the consolidated statement of income (loss).
The Company monitors its exposure to foreign currency risks arising from foreign currency balances and transactions. To reduce its foreign currency exposure associated with these balances and transactions, the Company may enter foreign currency derivatives to manage such risks. In 2024 and 2023, the Company did not utilize derivative financial instruments to manage this risk.

15.    Financial Risk Management (cont.)
The following table summarizes the Company’s net financial assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars, Colombian pesos and Guyanese dollar (in US dollar equivalents) as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as well as the effect on earnings and other comprehensive earnings after-tax of a 10% appreciation or depreciation in the foreign currencies against the US dollar on the financial and non-financial assets and liabilities of the Company, if all other variables remain constant:

Guyanese Dollar (GYD)(670)(62)100 
e)Price risk
Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Gold and silver prices can be subject to volatile price movements, which can be material and can occur over short periods of time and are affected by numerous factors, all of which are beyond the Company’s control. The Company may enter commodity hedging contracts from time to time to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in spot commodity prices.
The Company is required under the covenants of the Gold Notes to use commercially reasonable efforts to put in place commodity hedging contracts (put options) on a rolling four-quarters basis to establish a minimum selling price of $1,400 per ounce for the physical gold being accumulated in the Gold Escrow Account (Note 10b). Gold being accumulated in the Gold Escrow Account will be sold to meet the Company’s financial obligations for the quarterly Amortizing Payments of the Gold Notes. Under the terms of the agreement, such hedging will not be required if one of the following conditions is met:
the Company determines that any such hedging contracts are not obtainable on commercially reasonable terms; or
the failure to obtain any such hedging contracts would not reasonably be expected to materially adversely impact the ability of the Company to satisfy its obligations to make the quarterly Amortizing Payments.
As at September 30, 2024, the Company had no outstanding commodity hedging contracts in place.

23. Subsequent Events

On October 31, 2024, Aris Mining completed its offering of $450 million of 8.000% Senior Notes due 2029. A portion of the net proceeds from the offering will be used to redeem the $300 million 6.875% Senior Notes due 2026 which is expected to occur on November 20, 2026.

On November 6, 2024, Aris Mining received a $40 million milestone payment under its precious metals purchase agreement with WPMI. This payment was triggered when the Marmato Lower Mine project achieved a “25% construction spend” threshold in Q3 2024.
