**Equinox Gold Publishes 2025 Sustainability Report**

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- **Equinox Gold Corp.** (TSX: EQX, NYSE American: EQX) ("Equinox Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the publication of its 2025 Sustainability Report. Aligned with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) frameworks, the report provides an overview of the Company's performance and progress across key environmental, social and governance topics, including safety, environmental stewardship, community engagement and ethical business practices. The report covers the period from January 1 to December 31, 2025, with certain reporting scope considerations reflecting the Company's June 2025 combination with Calibre Mining and other portfolio changes during the year. The report, together with detailed GRI and SASB data tables, is available for review and download on Equinox Gold's website at www.equinoxgold.com/responsible-mining.

In 2025, we achieved meaningful progress across our sustainability priorities, including improved safety performance, strong environmental results, continued investment in our host communities, and completion of external assurance against the World Gold Council's Responsible Gold Mining Principles. The successful integration of Calibre Mining also marked an important milestone, strengthening our portfolio and positioning Equinox Gold as a more diversified and resilient gold producer. I am proud of our team's commitment to operating responsibly and advancing our sustainability performance across our business."
