Message from the Chairman

Dear Valued Shareholder,

As we enter the last two months of the 2022 year, I thought I would take this opportunity to provide you with a brief update on our Company and our flagship Cerro Caliche gold project in Sonora State, Mexico. On November 1, 2022, the Company announced the engagement of SRK Consulting (U.S.), Inc. to complete an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) on the project and prepare an NI 43-101 Technical Report inclusive of 7,200-meters of new geological data from a drilling campaign completed in May 2022.

This is an important initiative in the development of Cerro Caliche and supports Management’s strategy to secure project financing for a proposed heap-leach mining operation.

Since drilling commenced at Cerro Caliche in September 2018, the Company’s objective has been to delineate a resource that was sufficient to support an economically viable operation. Once in production, Cerro Caliche would fund ongoing development with minimum dilution to Sonoro shareholders.

Over the  past few years, the Company has worked diligently to transform Cerro Caliche from a highly prospective exploration project to a potentially economically viable resource. With just over 30% of the project’s mineralized zones mapped and assayed, the Company filed an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”), outlining a proposed open pit, heap leach mining operation.

The economic impact of the additional drilling data on the proposed operation will be addressed in a further technical report following completion of the updated MRE. Drilling returned multiple higher-grade gold intercepts and demonstrated the expansion of several known mineralized gold zones within the concession. An increase in size and/or grade of the resource may potentially enhance the overall economics of the project.

Another significant milestone accomplished this year was the filing of the Environmental Impact Statement, known as the Manifestacion de Impacto Ambiental (“MIA”).  The MIA is a compilation of extensive technical and environmental studies completed over the last few years on the Cerro Caliche project and its approval is required for mining construction and operation. As we progress through the permitting phase, our technical team remains engaged with the multiple stakeholders who worked alongside us to complete the multiple environmental studies and socio-economic assessments. These are critical relationships and form the foundation for the vital social license any mining Company must have within the community it operates.

Finally, we successfully completed two oversubscribed, non-brokered private placements this year, with Company directors and management participating for approximately 24% of the financings. Proceeds from both financings are being used to fund ongoing geological work and technical studies at Cerro Caliche.

In closing, I would like to thank you, our valued shareholder, for your ongoing support in Sonoro Gold. None of our achievements would be possible without your confidence and faith in our dedicated and tenacious team. As we are all very aware, this has been a very challenging year for gold companies, including those in exploration, development, and production. With massive volatility in the capital markets and currency valuations pushing the US dollar to a 30 year high, we are in one of the most difficult markets in decades.

I understand this may only exacerbate shareholder frustrations over project delays and evolving timelines, but this is essentially due to outside factors. Yet despite the challenges, Sonoro has continued to successfully raise equity, maintain operations, and move the Cerro Caliche project towards development.

I am very proud of what Sonoro has been able to achieve these past few years, especially within such a particularly volatile landscape. The Company’s strategy to bring Cerro Caliche into production is founded on a solid commitment to our shareholders as we recognize our primary responsibility to create shareholders value.

As always, please feel free to contact me directly with any comments or concerns.

Kindest Regards,

John M. Darch,

Chairman,  Sonoro Gold Corp.
