Torex Gold Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Torex") (TSX: TXG) maintains regular and open dialogue with all shareholders and stakeholders. As part of our open dialogue, we welcome and consider all feedback from shareholders and consider such feedback in the Board's regular review processes. The Board, as it always has, uses best practices to ensure that there are no circumstances which would interfere with the execution of a director's fiduciary responsibility to Torex and its shareholders.

As described in Torex's public disclosures, the Company's long-term strategy is to develop a sustainable, multi-asset, mining business by:

-- Executing operationally in order to generate strong free cash flow from El Limon Guajes, as recently demonstrated by the record quarterly production result delivered in Q3 2019;

-- Advancing, de-risking, and bringing Media Luna successfully into production; and

-- Delivering the full potential of our innovative Muckahi Mining System to the benefit of all Torex shareholders, including the possible acquisition of assets amenable to the Muckahi Mining System.

In the context of the Company's long-term strategy of developing a sustainable, multi-asset, mining business, Torex regularly assesses a range of alternatives that may include transactions that fit Torex's stringent criteria, provided such a transaction is accretive to shareholder value on a per share basis. Although it is the Company's policy to avoid commenting on market speculation and rumours, Torex confirms it is not in dialogue with or considering a transaction with any resource company and, to clarify recent incorrect market speculation and rumours, Torex is not in dialogue with or considering an acquisition or transaction with TMAC Resources Inc.

CAUTIONARY NOTES

Muckahi Mining System

The Technical Report includes information on Muckahi. It is important to note that Muckahi is experimental in nature and has not been tested in an operating mine. Many aspects of the system are conceptual, and proof of concept has not been demonstrated. Drill and blast fundamentals, standards and best practices for underground hard rock mining are applied in the Muckahi, where applicable. The proposed application of a monorail system for underground transportation for mine development and production mining is unique to underground hard rock mining. There are existing underground hard rock mines that use a monorail system for transportation of materials and equipment, however not in the capacity described in the Technical Report. Aspects of Muckahi mining equipment are currently in the design and test stage. The mine design, equipment performance and cost estimations are conceptual in nature, and do not demonstrate technical or economic viability. The Company expects to comple te the development and test the concept by the end of 2019 for the mine development and production activities. Further studies would be required to verify the viability of Muckahi.
