AVINO REPORTS HIGH-GRADE SILVER INTERCEPTS AND WIDER MINERALIZED ZONES AT LA PRECIOSA
Drilling returns 616 g/t silver over 4.86 metres and intersects 23.60 metres of mineralization at the
La Gloria–Abundancia vein junction
Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (ASM: TSX/NYSE American, GV6: FSE, "Avino" or "the Company") reports results from thirteen drill holes completed as part of the first phase of the Company’s 2026 drill program at La Preciosa.
“La Preciosa continues to surprise to the upside,” said David Wolfin, President and CEO. “The latest round of drill results from our 2026 infill program provides evidence of our thesis that the vein structures at the La Gloria and Abundancia are wider than we initially expected, as well as containing grade upside above our current mineral reserve and mineral resource. The fact that none of these drill holes, together with the majority of the holes drilled in 2025, were incorporated into the current mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates reinforces our confidence in La Preciosa's future potential. As we advance toward a larger-scale operation supported by higher-tonnage mining scenarios, we believe the project will continue to exceed expectations, and we look forward to providing further updates to the market in due course."
Both infill and vein extension holes were drilled as shown in Figures 1 and 2. High grades were recorded from the infill holes while most of the extension holes returned low to medium grades as expected.  Understanding how the veins are constrained was an important finding from the extension testing holes.
Hole PMLP 26-23 was particularly noteworthy as it intersected the Abundancia and La Gloria veins at their junction, returning very wide intercepts with average grades well above the previously reported resource cut-off grade, along with high-grade intervals throughout.
A 3D model showing all the drill holes relative to the reserve and resource shapes can be viewed via the VRIFY platform

Selected Intercept Highlights:
·
Hole PMLP 26-17:
616 g/t Ag and 0.32 g/t Au over 4.86 metres true width
·
Hole PMLP 26-20:
554 g/t Ag and 0.54 g/t Au over 2.76 metres true width
o
including 750 g/t Ag and 0.68 g/t Au over 1.46 metres true width
·
Hole PMLP 26-23 at La Gloria and Abundancia:
132 g/t Ag and 0.37 g/t Au over 23.60 metres true width
o
including 309 g/t Ag and 0.59 g/t Au over 0.84 metres true width at La Gloria, and
o
including 202 g/t Ag and 0.36 g/t Au over 8.04 metres true width at Abundancia
Variation in grades and thicknesses within relatively short distances (under 10 metres) were expected due to the “pinch and swell” geometry of the La Preciosa veins and the high nugget effects. The drill results exceeded grade expectations and verified the geometry of the current vein-based resource model.

Drilling Results
Assays have been received for thirteen holes totalling approximately 3,300 metres drilled at La Preciosa, with the full 2026 La Preciosa drill program comprising 15,000 metres across the property. These holes were completed as part of an infill/extension drilling program to help inform and refine the long term mine plan. Most holes were designed to intersect both the La Gloria and Abundancia veins, as well as additional recently-discovered veins in multiple holes. All assays were processed under Avino’s standard QA/QC program, with no indications of bias or contamination detected.

Geological Description
The La Preciosa deposit is situated on the eastern flank of the Cretaceous to mid-Tertiary Sierra Madre Occidental (the “SMO”). The SMO is the largest silicic igneous province in North America, and it stretches from the USA-Mexico border to the latitude of Guadalajara, where the SMO is covered by the late Miocene to Quaternary Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt.
Mineralization at La Preciosa is hosted within multiple discrete poly-phase quartz veins, often displaying banded, smoky, drusy, and chalcedonic textures. Also, in each stage, there is variably crustiform banded fracture fill/breccia cement mineralogy. Fluorite, amethyst, a substantial number of barite laths, calcite, and rhodochrosite may also be present, and sulphide mineralization in the form of sphalerite, galena, pyrite, chalcopyrite, acanthite, sparse native silver, and free gold, as well as iron and manganese oxides have been noted in drill core. The principal silver-bearing mineral at La Preciosa is acanthite-pseudomorphic after argentite or as microcrystalline to amorphous grains.
The main vein system on the Abundancia ridge consists of dominantly north-south-striking and westward-dipping veins plus east-southeast–striking, south-dipping crosscutting veins. The Abundancia vein system has been traced on the surface for over 1.5 km. In the eastern part of the Project, a north- to northwest-striking, shallow west-dipping vein system with associated hanging wall veining and alteration is exposed in a series of hills. This vein system is referred to as the Martha vein and has been traced by drilling for over 2.5 km along the strike.
The mineralization in the area occurs in veins, veinlets, and stockwork. These veins average in true width less than 15 metres (Martha Vein) and consist of several stages of banded crustiform to colloform, quartz (and cryptocrystalline quartz at shallow depths), adularia, barite, and typically later carbonates (both calcite and rhodochrosite); illite commonly replaces the adularia. There are variable amounts of pyrite, sphalerite, and galena plus argentite, and variable amounts of tetrahedrite - tennantite, freibergite, and Ag sulfosalt.

Page 6
There are steep-dipping veins in the west, such as the La Gloria vein. These steep veins can be considered as a mineralized zone or lode of stockwork, silicification, breccias, veins, vein breccias, veinlets, and a general mix of multiple styles of mineralization. The mineralization displays characteristics typical of epithermal veins in Mexico, particularly of the Ag-rich variety. Quartz veins are accompanied by adularia, barite, calcite, and rhodochrosite of variable timing, as well as acanthite, freibergite, Ag sulfosalts and minor electrum, plus variable amounts of pyrite, honey-coloured sphalerite, tennantite/tetrahedrite, chalcopyrite and galena, and supergene Fe and Mn oxides; the hypogene minerals are characteristic of intermediate-sulphidation deposits in Mexico. Mineralization is believed to be Tertiary in age, and both the Lower Volcanic Supergroup (LVS) and Upper Volcanic Supergroup (UVS) are mineralized, but the overlying basalts are recent and not mineralized.
Sampling and Assay Methods
Following detailed geological and geotechnical logging, selected drill core areas were cut in half. One half of the core was submitted to the SGS Laboratory facility in Durango, Mexico, and the other half was retained on-site for verification and reference. Gold is assayed by fire assay with an AA finish. Any samples exceeding 3.0 g/t Au are re-assayed and followed by a gravimetric finish. Multi-element analyses are also completed for each sample by SGS ICP14B methods. Silver is fire assayed with a gravimetric finish for samples assaying over 100 g/t Ag. Avino uses a series of standard reference materials, blank reference materials, and duplicates as part of their QA/QC program during assaying.
Qualified Person(s)
Avino's projects in Durango, Mexico, are under the geoscientific oversight of Michael F. O’Brien, P.Geo., Senior Principal Consultant, Red Pennant Communications, and under the supervision of Peter Latta, P.Eng, Avino’s Senior Vice President, Technical Services, who are both qualified persons within the context of NI 43-101. Both have reviewed and approved the technical data in this news release.
About Avino
Avino is a primary silver-focused mining company with the advantages of being both a producer and a developer. The Company operates the producing Avino Mine and is advancing the La Preciosa Mine, both located in the state of Durango, Mexico. La Preciosa is a production and development-stage mineral property, hosting one of Mexico’s largest undeveloped primary silver resources. The Company’s silver, gold and copper production remains unhedged. Avino has been recognized in the Toronto Stock Exchange’s TSX30™ for two consecutive years, ranking 5th in both 2025 and 2026. The Company remains focused on executing its transformational growth strategy, with the objective of building sustainable, profitable mining operations that create long-term value for shareholders and benefit the communities in which we operate. Responsible mining practices remain an integral part of Avino’s operations, including the successful operation of its dry-stack tailings facility for more than three years.
