VANCOUVER, BC, June 4, 2026 /CNW/ - Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA) (NYSE: ORLA) ("Orla" or the "Company") provides the following update on the work stoppage and blockade that has temporarily halted operations at the Camino Rojo Mine in Zacatecas, Mexico since June 1. The Company met yesterday with union representatives and the Mexican Department of Federal Labour Conciliation to reach a resolution. The meeting, initially scheduled for June 2, was held on June 3.

During the meeting, the Labour Authority confirmed that the blockade at the mine site by certain employees is illegal and has advised the union representation that the blockade should be lifted. In accordance with the Department of Federal Labour Conciliation's guidance, the union leadership has committed to communicate such message to its members.

Orla remains committed to finding a resolution on the productivity bonus discussions, and a future date has been set to resume negotiations, contingent on the restoration of normal mine operations. The Company has kept local community leaders and municipal and state officials informed of the steps being taken to protect the safety, environmental, economic, and social integrity of the operation.

"We welcome this step to return to normal operation at Camino Rojo so we can welcome all our employees back to work," said Jason Simpson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Orla Mining. "We are also committed to resuming good-faith discussions with the union regarding the productivity bonus within the parameters of that framework, and we are optimistic that a mutually beneficial agreement can be reached. At Orla, we strive to create a long-term positive impact for all our stakeholders, including our employees, local communities, and surrounding businesses, but this is only possible with business continuity."

The Company remains committed to respecting the labour and union rights of its employees, while also maintaining its firm commitment to upholding order in compliance with Mexican law and internal policies.

Should the blockade not be lifted in contravention of the agreement established between parties, Orla will take additional steps in an effort to resume operations in coordination with labour authorities.
