Pasinex Resources Limited (CSE: PSE) (FSE: PNX) (The “Company” or “Pasinex”) today reports that at this stage, T.C. Maden ve Petrol Iserl Genel Mudurlugu (“MAPEG”), the mining ministry in Turkey, have not extended the principal mining operational license of Horzum AS beyond April 15, 2023, and the Akkaya operational exploration license of Pasinex Arama at this time. As a result, both Pasinex Arama and Horzum AS have each filed a court action in Adana, Turkey challenging the denial of the license extensions. The actions were filed on July 1, 2022, in order to meet the legal statute of limitations in the mining law.

At the present time, Pasinex has not been provided with any reasons as to why these licenses have not been extended at this point and will work in the coming weeks with the officials of MAPEG to negotiate solutions for the mutual benefit of all. Turkey has one of the best and most advanced mining laws in the world that benefits all parties.

The mining operation in Horzum AS, with about 125 employees and contractors, will continue as usual during the period of discussions. The advancement of the 541-adit in the Pinargozu license toward the Akkaya license will continue to allow underground exploration of the Akkaya license when the operational exploration license of Akkaya is extended. Pasinex believes that Horzum AS has good community relations, an excellent safety record and management system, meets all environmental regulations and laws, and is one of the largest employers in the Kozan region in the Province of Adana and is working to develop a longer-term sustainable mining operation for the benefit of all.
