Interview with Allen Sabet, CEO of Mogotes Metals Inc.

Recording date: 1st April 2025

Mogotes Metals Inc. is positioning itself as a significant player in copper-gold exploration, with strategic holdings directly adjacent to Filo Mining's Filo del Sol discovery in Argentina's prolific Vicuña District. The Filo del Sol property was recently acquired by BHP-Lundin for C$4.5 billion, highlighting the district's exceptional mineral potential.

Led by CEO Allen Sabet, Mogotes has taken a methodical approach to exploration, focusing on comprehensive data collection before drilling. "To mitigate the risk of drilling into nothing, we take a step back and do a full property-wide systematic program," explains Sabet. This approach has allowed the company to identify multiple exploration targets across its Filo Sur Project.

The company has invested over $10 million in exploration work, utilizing advanced techniques including MT geophysics, IP surveys, and high-resolution satellite imagery for alteration mapping. These methods have revealed compelling targets with geological signatures similar to neighboring discoveries.

Key exploration targets include Meseta, located on the Mogotes-Filo property boundary with rock chip samples showing up to 1.48 g/t gold; Camino, featuring phyllic alteration with copper, molybdenum and arsenic in surface soils; Rincon, a newly identified trend with promising trench results; Cruz del Sur, with magnetic chargeable targets close to surface; and Colorida Zone, showing large conductive anomalies.

Mogotes recently optioned additional claims that secure the projection of the Filo del Sol trend, strengthening its strategic position. "We've locked up strategically over the last two years any open ground that was there and now we've closed that with our most recent transaction," Sabet notes.
The company plans to begin its first comprehensive drilling program in October 2025, with current work focused on further defining targets through trenching and additional geophysical surveys.

With a market capitalization of approximately C$33 million and C$8 million in cash as of February 2025, Mogotes represents a leveraged opportunity for copper exposure. Management and insiders hold 18% of the company's 247.5 million outstanding shares, with institutional investors holding 36%.

As global copper demand is projected to double by 2035 while mine supply faces constraints, the Vicuña District offers rare potential for multiple world-class discoveries. Mogotes provides investors access to this promising trend at a fraction of the valuation of its neighbors.
