Belo Sun Mining Corp., a Toronto-based company, received an important update regarding its licensing situation in Brazil. On October 21, 2026, the Brazilian Supreme Court, known as the STF, issued a ruling related to a request for the suspension of provisional relief concerning its Installation License, commonly referred to as LI. This action was prompted by Brazil's Federal Public Prosecutor’s Office (MPF) which is involved in ongoing concerns about the environmental and legal compliance of Belo Sun's mining operations.

The decision from the STF marks a significant moment for Belo Sun as the company navigates legal challenges in Brazil, particularly around its mining practices and the associated impacts. A settlement hearing will be held to address the issues brought forth by the MPF, and its results could have substantial implications for Belo Sun's future operations in Brazil.

Belo Sun Mining Corp. has stated its commitment to follow all legal frameworks and ensure compliance with Brazilian regulations while pursuing its mining endeavors. Investors and stakeholders are closely monitoring this situation, as the implications of the Supreme Court's decision will unfold in the coming weeks and could influence the environmental and economic landscape of the region.

The company continues to advocate for its stance regarding sustainable mining practices as it responds to the continuing legal scrutiny regarding its licensure and operational compliance in Brazil.
