**IAMGOLD AGREES TO ACQUIRE NORTHERN SUPERIOR** <br>**CONSOLIDATING A PREMIER MINING JURISDICTION** 

*All monetary amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.*

**Toronto, Ontario, October 20, 2025 - IAMGOLD Corporation** (NYSE:IAG) (TSX:IMG) ("IAMGOLD" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive arrangement agreement (the "Agreement") whereby IAMGOLD will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Northern Superior Resources Inc. (TSXV:SUP) (OTCQB:NSUPF) (GR:D9M1) ("Northern Superior") by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement (the "Transaction") under the *Business Corporations Act* (British Columbia).

The Transaction will consolidate Northern Superior's significant land package and notable deposits, including Philibert, Chevrier and Croteau, with IAMGOLD's Nelligan and Monster Lake Projects. The combined assets, together the "Nelligan Mining Complex", will rank as one of the largest pre-production gold camps in Canada with Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources of 3.75 million ounces of gold ("Moz Au") and Inferred Mineral Resources of 8.65 Moz Au. The close proximity of the primary deposits to each other supports the conceptual vision of a central processing facility being fed from multiple ore sources within a 17-kilometre radius.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Northern Superior's shareholders will receive 0.0991 of an IAMGOLD common share ("IAMGOLD Shares") and C$0.19 in cash for each common share of Northern Superior ("Northern Superior Share"). This implies total consideration of C$2.05 per Northern Superior Share, a total transaction value of approximately $267.4 million and represents a premium of 27.4% based on the 20-day volume-weighted average prices ("VWAP") of IAMGOLD on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and Northern Superior on the TSX Venture Exchange as at October 17, 2025. The Transaction will also include a concurrent distribution to Northern Superior's shareholders of all the common shares in the capital of ONGold Resources Ltd. currently held by Northern Superior.

Upon completion of the Transaction, it is expected that existing IAMGOLD and Northern Superior shareholders will own approximately 97% and 3% of the pro forma company, respectively.

**Highlights of the Transaction**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• More than doubles IAMGOLD's landholding in the district with the addition of 70,636 hectares of claims. The transaction consolidates a significant land position, comprising over 109,000 hectares ("ha") in the Chibougamau district, a rapidly growing premier mining jurisdiction in Quebec, Canada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Combines IAMGOLD's Nelligan and Monster Lake projects with Northern Superior's Philibert, Chevrier and Croteau projects, creating the Nelligan Mining Complex. The Nelligan Mining Complex is estimated to host Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources of 3.75 Moz Au and Inferred Mineral Resources of 8.65 Moz Au[<sup>1</sup>](#_ftn1)<sup>,</sup>[<sup>2</sup>](#_ftn2), positioning it as the 4<sup>th</sup> largest pre-production gold camp in Canada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Philibert project is located 9 kilometres northeast of Nelligan and 12 kilometers southeast of Monster Lake. The close proximity of these primary deposits supports the conceptual vision of a central processing facility being fed from multiple ore sources within the region.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Provides a notable premium to Northern Superior shareholders of 27.4% based on the 20-day VWAPs of IAMGOLD on the TSX and Northern Superior on the TSXV, as at October 17, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The inclusion of share consideration provides Northern Superior shareholders the opportunity to participate in the future upside potential the Nelligan Mining Complex and IAMGOLD, as the Company establishes itself as a leading mid-tier gold producer that is well positioned to generate significant cash flows and unlock meaningful value via the growth potential of its Canadian portfolio.

[<sup>2</sup>](#_ftnref2) Refer to Northern Superior news release dated August 8, 2023, titled "Northern Superior Announces 1,708,809 Gold Ounces in Inferred Category and 278,921 Gold Ounces in Indicated Category at 1.10 g/t In Maiden NI 43-110 Pit Constrained Resource Estimate at Philibert"

"The addition of Northern Superior's assets to IAMGOLD's Nelligan Mining Complex in the Chibougamau region of Quebec is extremely exciting for IAMGOLD, the region and our mutual shareholders," said Renaud Adams, President and Chief Executive Officer of IAMGOLD. "This acquisition aligns with our strategy to become a leading Canadian-focused mid-tier gold producer, bolstering our organic pipeline in Quebec where we have maintained a longstanding presence. Further, the combined assets begin to define a conceptual project that complements both the scale and timing of our Côté Gold Mine and its forthcoming expansion. We look forward to accelerating our exploration program in the region with a goal of further expansion and extension of the mineralization at Nelligan, Philibert and Monster Lake - making the Nelligan Mining Complex already near the top undeveloped projects in mining-friendly Quebec and Canada."
