**Equinox Gold Reports New High-Grade Resource Expansion Drill Results** 

***Intercepts include 36.77 g/t gold over 6.9 metres, 8.55 g/t gold over 14.6 metres, 10.19 g/t gold over 6.0 metres***  <br> 

**July 28, 2025 - Vancouver, BC - Equinox Gold Corp.** (TSX: EQX, NYSE American: EQX) ("Equinox Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update from the exploration campaign at its producing El Limon Mine Complex ("El Limon") in Nicaragua. Initial results of the planned 100,000 metres of discovery and resource expansion diamond drilling at El Limon in 2025 have yielded the highest-grade gold mineralization discovered to date on the property, demonstrating significant potential to extend the mineralized corridor to both the north and west of the existing producing deposits.

**El Limon Highlight Drill Results** (see <u>Figure 1</u> and <u>Table 1</u>)

* 36.77 grams per tonne gold ("g/t Au") over 6.9 metres estimated true width ("ETW") (EL-TMR-25-036)

* 13.93 g/t Au over 2.7 metres ETW (LIM-24-5088), 17.85 g/t Au over 3.2 metres ETW (EL-TMR-25-016)

* 22.18 g/t Au over 4.4 metres ETW (EL-TMR-25-031), 8.45 g/t Au over 3.2 metres ETW (EL-TMR-25-021)

* 13.47 g/t Au over 4.5 metres ETW (EL-TLV-25-1704), 4.55 g/t Au over 5.2 metres ETW (EL-BAB-25-150)

* 10.19 g/t Au over 6.0 metres ETW (EL-TLV-25-1706), 5.46 g/t Au over 5.0 metres ETW (EL-TLV-25-1705)

* 8.55 g/t Au over 14.6 metres ETW (EL-BAB-25-121), 27.39 g/t Au over 1.9 metres ETW (EL-TMR-25-041)

* 12.71 g/t Au over 3.7 metres ETW (EL-TLV-25-1710)

**Darren Hall, Chief Executive Officer of Equinox Gold commented:** "El Limon was acquired from B2Gold in Q4 2019, at a time when the Nicaraguan assets contained a combined Mineral Reserve of approximately 140,000 ounces of gold. Since then, through focused exploration and disciplined execution, the team has delivered more than a 700% increase in Mineral Reserves, net of production depletion across the assets, underscoring the prospectivity of the region and our ability to unlock value through discovery. In January 2025, we celebrated the milestone of pouring our one-millionth ounce of gold in Nicaragua since the acquisition, and year-end 2024 Nicaragua Mineral Reserves totalled 1.12 million ounces of gold grading 4.36 grams per tonne.

"These recent high-grade drilling results demonstrate the extension of gold mineralization in three areas of the property: adjacent to the operating Panteon underground mine, along the multi-kilometre VTEM Gold Corridor and along trend of the past-producing Talavera mine. The Company currently has an active multi-rig drill program underway and today's results at El Limon continue to demonstrate the potential for meaningful mineral resource growth and additional new discoveries.

"Over the last five years, we have successfully permitted and brought four new satellite mines into production in the country, typically progressing from discovery to first production within 18 to 24 months. Given the upside potential for new satellite mines, our permitting track record, and surplus milling capacity within the hub and spoke operating platform, we believe these exploration results continue to significantly enhance the long-term value of these assets in Equinox Gold's portfolio."

**About Equinox Gold's Nicaraguan Assets**

Equinox Gold's Nicaraguan assets operate as a "hub and spoke" platform, whereby ore from multiple open-pit and underground deposits is processed at either the El Limon or La Libertad mills, which combined have 2.7 million tonnes per year of installed processing capacity. The Company has more than one million tonnes of surplus processing capacity available at its Nicaraguan processing facilities, providing significant flexibility for future growth.

------

El Limon has produced more than four million ounces of gold to date and continues to demonstrate strong exploration upside. Looking ahead, the Company's Nicaraguan exploration strategy will prioritize resource expansion and discovery drilling across existing resource zones and at high-priority targets including the VTEM Gold Corridor and the past-producing Talavera underground mine, which produced approximately 800,000 ounces of gold when in operation.

Talavera represents a new opportunity at the prolific El Limon property given its location less than three kilometres west of the El Limon processing facility. The extension of mineralization approximately 750 metres west of this historical mine (<u>see Calibre Mining news release dated November 18, 2024</u>) and the discovery of several parallel sub vertically dipping veins led to the delineation of a new 630,000 ounce Inferred Mineral Resource (3.8 million tonnes grading 5.09 g/t gold) (<u>see Calibre Mining news release dated January 29, 2025</u>). The Company's 2025 exploration program at Talavera includes both expansion and delineation drilling while advancing environmental permits, with the objective of ultimately advancing this new deposit to production.

**Quality Assurance/Quality Control** 

Equinox Gold maintains a Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC") program for all its exploration projects using industry best practices. Key elements of the QA/QC program include verifiable chain of custody for samples, regular insertion of certified reference standards and blanks, and duplicate check assays. Drill core is halved and shipped in sealed bags to Bureau Veritas in Managua, Nicaragua, an independent analytical services provider with global certifications for Quality Management Systems ISO 9001:2008, Environmental Management: ISO14001 and Safety Management OH SAS 18001 and AS4801. Prior to analysis, samples are prepared at Veritas' Managua facility and then shipped to its analytical facility in Vancouver, Canada. Gold analyses are routinely performed via fire assay/AA finish methods. For greater precision of high-grade material, samples assaying 10 g/t Au or higher are re-assayed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Analyses for silver and other elements of interest are performed via Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP). Additional information regarding the Company's data verification processes is set out in the El Limon Technical Report, which can be found on the Company's website and on Calibre Mining's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
