LUNDIN GOLD RELEASES 2024 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT

Lundin Gold Inc. has released its 2024 sustainability report which outlines the company's progress and performance against its five-year sustainability strategy across its business activities. All amounts are in United States dollars unless otherwise indicated.

"Last year was a remarkable year for our company. Along with 2024 marking our 10th anniversary in Ecuador and fifth anniversary of production, it was a year of record performance -- including our sustainability performance," said Ron Hochstein, president and chief executive officer of Lundin Gold. "As we close out our five-year sustainability strategy (2021 to 2025), we are seeing the cumulative positive impacts of our work, both in our area of influence and more broadly in Ecuador. We have already achieved the majority of our 2025 targets set under our strategy; this outstanding performance was achieved through the commitment of our employees who integrate sustainability across our business. I am proud of this work and look forward to developing our new five-year sustainability strategy, continuing to build trust with our stakeholders and creating shared value in Ecuador for generations to come."

Highlights of Lundin Gold's 2024 sustainability report:

  • Achieved zero significant safety incidents (on site and off site);
  • Achieved an industry low greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (scopes 1 and 2) intensity of 0.10 tCO2e (tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent) per ounce of gold produced;
  • Met the five-year water reduction target early, achieving per-capita water consumption of 197 litres per day, a significant accomplishment compared with the 2021 per-capita consumption of 326 litres per day;

  • Increased direct economic contributions in Ecuador of $290-million, including wages and benefits, operating costs and community investments, as compared with $285-million in 2023.

Lundin Gold's sustainability report was developed with guidance from globally recognized sustainability reporting frameworks, standards, and recommendations, including the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the Sector Standard for Mining (GRI 14), Sustainability Standards Accounting Board (SASB) and United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
