The DeLamar project is progressing with 40% of its budget allocated to permitting activities following the Mine Plan of Operations submission. With the feasibility study expected later in 2025 and federal permitting commencing in H2, DeLamar is advancing toward development decision. Meanwhile, Nevada North's metallurgical and geochemical testing program will de-risk future development potential.

George Salamis, President, CEO and Director of Integra commented: "When Integra acquired the Florida Canyon Mine in late 2024, the primary goal was to secure a consistent and reliable source of cash flow that would allow the Company to advance its flagship development stage projects, DeLamar and Nevada North, and remove the need for annual equity financing. Florida Canyon has successfully delivered on this objective. In the current gold price environment Florida Canyon is generating greater than expected cash flow, which has significantly improved the Company's financial position and ability to execute its strategy.
As anticipated, Florida Canyon will see significant re-investment during the remaining quarters of 2025 and into 2026, across several ongoing initiatives to support a profitable mining operation for many years to come. The next 18 months represent a capital-intensive phase of the long-term continuous improvement plan for Florida Canyon. Major investments are underway in key areas including a heap leach pad expansion, increased capitalized waste stripping, a revitalized mobile equipment fleet, process optimization, and enhanced mine planning. The goal is to sustain and grow Florida Canyon, extend its mine life, and address historical underinvestment. Integra is laying the foundation for a more efficient, longer-lived operation with an improved cost profile in the years ahead. The Company's ongoing work at Florida Canyon will be incorporated into a new NI 43-101 technical report, expected to be published in the first half of 2026, in which Integra aims to highlight the improvements which can be made to this cornerstone asset.
Florida Canyon's ability to generate cash flow has allowed the Company to expedite and bolster initiatives at the DeLamar Project relating to the ongoing feasibility study and permitting efforts – with the expected commencement of federal mine permitting in the second half of 2025. The Company's enhanced financial strength has also allowed for an increased budget for the Nevada North Project to complete crucial test work to support future economic studies and permitting efforts. Integra is well positioned to deliver on its goals of profitability and project advancement while progressing its long-term vision of building a
2025 Production, Cost, and Growth Outlook – Florida Canyon Mine
Gold production from the Florida Canyon Mine ("Florida Canyon" or the "Mine") is expected to be 70,000 to 75,000 ounces in 2025. The Company is planning to mine approximately 13.5 million tonnes of ore and 11.2 million tonnes of waste for a total of 24.7 million tonnes, resulting in a strip ratio of 0.83. The increased strip ratio in 2025 is a result of catching up on stripping postponed by previous owners, as well as additional stripping required to access new areas for mining.
