Property Description, Location and Access
Florida Canyon is located 125 miles (~201 kilometers) east of
Commercial mining operations at Florida Canyon began in 1986 using conventional open-pit mining and heap-leach processing methods. The mine operated continuously through 2011 before entering a period of intermittent production until 2015. Florida Canyon was subsequently restarted in mid-2016 following new investment and operational improvements and has remained in operation since. Since the restart, Florida Canyon has undergone modernization and expansion efforts, including upgrades to equipment, heap-leach infrastructure, permitting expansions, and long-term mine planning initiatives.

Updated Mineral Resource Estimate
Mineral resources were re-estimated from the resource model released in 2024 and include historic waste rock stockpiles whose grade exceeds current cut-off grades for the Project. The updated Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") incorporates a revised geological interpretation that includes structural domains and shear controls. These changes improved grade continuity within mineralized zones and reduced dilution associated with previous estimation domains. The revised geological model includes infill, confirmatory and exploration drilling completed since 2024, together with historical drilling completed by previous operators. In total, the MRE is based on 5,454 drill holes totaling 665,423 meters ("m"). The updated MRE for Florida Canyon was modeled following industry-standard and Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroleum ("CIM") compliant protocols.
Key steps included:
- Verification of the drill hole database;
- Generation of drill hole intercepts for each shear zone;
- Statistical analysis of assay data;
- Compositing of assay intervals;
- Capping of outlier composite values;
- Geostatistical analysis, including variography;
- Construction of the block model and grade interpolation;
- Classification of the Mineral Resources;
- Validation of the block model;
- Calculation of cut-off grades;
- Pit optimization;
- Confirmation that reported blocks meet the RPEEE criteria; and
- Preparation of the Mineral Resource statement.
The MRE is constrained within an optimized pit shell generated using updated metal prices, metallurgical recoveries, operating costs and slope assumptions consistent with reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction.

Mineral Reserve Estimate
The Mineral Reserves were estimated by applying detailed mine design, production schedules, operating costs, metallurgical recoveries and economic criteria to the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources. The engineered open pits were constrained with cut-off grades that reflect updated metal prices, metallurgical recoveries and known operating costs. Based on updated geotechnical assessment and operating experience, inter-ramp slope angles in selected areas were increased from 38 degrees to 42 degrees, resulting in additional economic pit inventory available for resource conversion. Along with confirmatory and exploration drilling, refined engineering and the inclusion of historic waste rock stockpiles, the updated mineral reserve estimate fully replaces mining depletion since the acquisition of Florida Canyon and supports an extension of active mining through 2033.

Production Profile
The Technical Report outlines 8-years of active mining and ore placement, followed by approximately two years of residual gold recovery from heap leaching, extending the operating mine life from 2030 in the 2024 Technical Report to 2033 in the updated Technical Report. The 8-years of active mining at Florida Canyon are followed by 2-years of residual leaching. The updated mine plan shows an increase in annual production from 70 Koz Au in the 2024 Technical Report to 82 Koz in the updated Technical Report, which represents an annual increase of 12 Koz per year.
The Company anticipated 2026 would be a cost intensive transition year as it addressed a deferred stripping campaign in the Central pit and undertook fleet replacement and upgrades. The Technical Report reflects these investments and outlines a more stable and sustainable operating plan, reducing production variability and supporting a more consistent and predictable production profile over an increased LOM.
Mining
Mining is currently conducted as a conventional open-pit operation using truck-and-loader methods. The mine plan schedules 22.0 to 28.1 million tonnes ("Mt") of total material movement per year ("/yr"), which is consistent with historical mining performance and fleet capability, with an average of 14.6 Mt/yr of ore transferred to the heap leach pad. Approximately, 7.1 Mt/yr of ore is scheduled for crushing to 2.5 inches, consistent with capacity and historical operating performance of the existing crushing circuit. Crushed material will be blended with approximately 4.5 Mt to 9.3 Mt/yr of run-of-mine ("ROM") material during the 10-year LOM (8-years of active mining). The mine plan schedules 211.2 Mt of total material movement over the 8-year active mine life, including 116.9 Mt of ore with an average grade of 0.31 g/t Au, resulting in 656 Koz Au recoverable placed on the heap leach pad over LOM. The LOM average strip ratio of 0.81 waste tonnes per ore tonne is consistent with historical operating performance and supports the economic extraction of the reserve inventory.
The increased mine life and enhanced production profile are primarily driven by the expansion of the Central Pit and Radio Tower Pit. Mining is planned in the Central Pit from 2026 through 2028, followed by the Radio Tower Pit from 2028 through 2030. Mining from 2030 through 2033 will occur at the Jasperoid Pit and through the processing of historic waste rock stockpiles.
Mining assumptions were developed using recent operating performance, equipment productivity analyses, labour requirements, maintenance planning and detailed production scheduling. The Technical Report provides a mine plan that can be executed effectively and deliver consistent production. Through an improved geological model and detailed forward planning, the Company expects to improve operation reliability and preserve flexibility that supports multiple ore sources to unlock additional value from the Mineral Reserve base.

Operating Costs
The Technical Report provides a comprehensive assessment of Florida Canyon with a mine plan that reflects current and future operating realities. The Technical Report includes nearly two years of detailed review and analysis by Integra of operating costs, maintenance requirements, labour assumptions and long-term mine planning. The Company completed a bottom-up evaluation of all major cost categories at the Project, incorporating historical operating performance, budget variances and previously underrepresented costs to develop a more comprehensive and realistic cost structure. Assumptions have been updated to reflect current market conditions, including labour costs consistent with
The Technical Report also incorporates a fully integrated mine plan to support the expanded reserve base, including permitting costs and engineered plans for future heap leach pads. Equipment assumptions have been updated to reflect a more proactive maintenance strategy, integrating both planned component replacement programs and expected unplanned downtime based on historical operating performance. The Technical Report also includes investments in fleet modernization, including the transition to larger haul trucks and other equipment upgrades designed to improve productivity, increase reliability and reduce unit mining costs over time. Together, these investments support a more stable and predictable operating profile while providing the infrastructure and equipment capacity required to execute the mine plan.

Next Steps and Opportunities
The Technical Report includes multiple opportunities for further additional Project optimization. These opportunities are conceptual in nature and not included in current Mineral Reserve Estimate or economic analysis.
- Near mine exploration: Exploration drilling completed in 2025 and 2026 contributed to a significant increase in mineral resources, demonstrating the potential for mineral resource growth next to existing infrastructure. In April 2026, Integra initiated a 42,500 m drill program at Florida Canyon to test underexplored extensions of known mineralization and evaluate targets along newly identified key structures that are known to control mineralization. Near mine drilling has the potential to increase mineral resources, mineral reserves, and production opportunities adjacent to Florida Canyon's existing mining and processing infrastructure.
- Property wide exploration: Limited exploration has been completed by previous operators on the wider Florida Canyon property, which encompasses approximately 84 square miles (135 square kilometers). During the 2026 exploration program, Integra will drill at the Standard Mine south of Florida Canyon to evaluate historical backfill, waste material, and previously identified gold targets that have not seen significant exploration work in years. In addition, the Company will conduct first-pass drilling on several greenfield targets generated through geological work, geophysical surveys, geochemical sampling, and AI-assisted mineral targeting.
- Crushing and recovery: The Company is evaluating the potential for additional crushing capacity at Florida Canyon to increase recovery and gold production in the future. As part of the assessment, detailed analysis will also focus on further optimizing crush size to accelerate gold recovery.
- Enhanced mine productivity: The Company is implementing fleet management and dispatch systems to optimize haul road performance and planning, potentially lowering unit mining costs and increasing material movement reliability and efficiency.
- Improved material routing: Refining cutoff grade strategies, stockpile management and ROM-to-crusher routing to maximize value capture from mined material and improve economic returns.
Guidance Update
The Company is revising its 2026 site-level AISC guidance at Florida Canyon. The adjustment to AISC is primarily attributed to an increase in the tonnes, mined, stacked and processed to support production, lower gold ounces sold during Q1 2026, increased royalties1 and excise taxes resulting from stronger-than-anticipated gold prices, and higher diesel fuel and explosive costs. The Company now expects 2026 site-level AISC guidance to increase from

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Alternative performance measures in this news release such as "cash cost", "AISC", "free cash flow" and "sustaining capital costs" are furnished to provide additional information. These non-GAAP performance measures are included in this news release because these statistics are used as key performance measures that management uses to monitor and assess performance of Florida Canyon, and to plan and assess the overall effectiveness and efficiency of mining operations. These performance measures do not have a standardized meaning within International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and, therefore, amounts presented may not be comparable to similar data presented by other mining companies. These performance measures should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with IFRS.
Cash Costs
Cash costs include site operating costs (mining, processing, site G&A), refinery costs and royalties, but excludes head office G&A and exploration expenses. While there is no standardized meaning of the measure across the industry, the Company believes that this measure is useful to external users in assessing operating performance.
Site-Level All-In Sustaining Cost
Site-level AISC includes cash costs and sustaining capital, but excludes head office G&A and exploration expenses. The Company believes that this measure is useful to external users in assessing operating performance and the Company's ability to generate free cash flow from potential operations.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flows are revenues net of operating costs, royalties, capital expenditures and cash taxes. The Company believes that this measure is useful to the external users in assessing the Company's ability to generate cash flows from the Project.
