**Orla Mining Announces Receipt of Interim Order and Filing and Mailing of Meeting Materials for Special Meeting of Shareholders to Approve the Arrangement with Equinox Gold Corp.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Your vote matters to your investment - **vote today!*** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *The Board of Directors of Orla unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution.* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Shareholder questions or need voting assistance? Please contact Laurel Hill Advisory Group by email at assistance@laurelhill.com, or by texting "INFO" to, or calling, 1-877-452-7184 (North American toll-free) or 1-416-304-0211 (outside North America).* 

VANCOUVER, BC, June 23, 2026 /CNW/ - Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA) (NYSE: ORLA) ("Orla" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that in connection with the previously announced business combination (the "Arrangement") with Equinox Gold Corp. (TSX: EQX; NYSE: EQX) ("Equinox"), Orla has filed and commenced mailing of its notice of meeting, management information circular (the "Circular") and related documents (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") with securities regulators for the upcoming special meeting (the "Meeting") of the holders of common shares of Orla (the "Shareholders").

The Meeting Materials can now be accessed online on Orla's website at https://orlamining.com/investors/special-meeting/ and under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ and EDGAR at www.sedarplus.ca and www.sec.gov, respectively.

**Meeting Details** 

The Meeting will be held on July 22, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. (PST) at the offices of Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP, Suite 3100, Park Place, 666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 2X8. The Meeting will be held in person.

At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider, and if deemed advisable, to pass, with or without variation, a special resolution (the "Arrangement Resolution") to approve the Arrangement pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under section 192 of the *Canada Business Corporations Act*, whereby Equinox will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Orla in accordance with the arrangement agreement entered into by the parties dated May 12, 2026 (the "Arrangement Agreement").

Under the terms of the Arrangement, each common share of Orla will be exchanged for 1.00 common share of Equinox and US$0.0001 in cash. Following completion of the Arrangement, former Shareholders are expected to own approximately 33% of the combined company, while existing shareholders of Equinox are expected to own approximately 67% of the combined company, in each case on a fully-diluted in-the-money basis based on the number of issued and outstanding securities of Orla and Equinox as of the date of the Arrangement Agreement.

**Interim Order and No Action Letter**

The Company is also pleased to announce that the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court") has issued an interim order (the "Interim Order") regarding the Arrangement which authorizes Orla to proceed with the Meeting and addresses other Meeting related matters. A copy of the Interim Order is included in the Circular. Subject to receipt of the requisite approvals by Shareholders at the Meeting, it is expected that Orla will apply for a final order of the Court approving the Arrangement on or about July 28, 2026.

In addition, on May 15, 2026, Orla and Equinox submitted to the Commissioner of Competition a request for an advance ruling certificate or, in the alternative, a no action letter and a waiver. On June 1, 2026, the Commissioner of Competition issued a no action letter to Orla and Equinox and waived the obligation for Orla and Equinox to submit information prescribed pursuant to subsection 114(1) of the *Competition Act* in respect of the Arrangement. A no action letter provides written confirmation from the Commissioner of Competition that he or she does not, at that time, intend to make an application under section 92 of the *Competition Act*. This satisfies the Canadian competition approval closing condition to the Arrangement.

**Strategic Rationale**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Opportunity to participate in future value creation from the Arrangement**:
Under the Arrangement, Shareholders will receive common shares of Equinox and are expected to own approximately 33% of the combined company
on a fully-diluted basis, allowing Shareholders to participate in future upside and value creation of the combined company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Creation of a new North American senior gold producer**: The combined
company will have 1.1 million ounces of expected annual gold production from a highly complementary portfolio of six North American mines,
underpinned by a significant endowment of approximately 23 million ounces of proven & probable mineral reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Peer leading, growth profile leading to potentially more than 1.9 million ounces of annual production**: Clear path to more than 800,000 ounces<sup>1</sup> of near-term gold production growth from the
Valentine Gold phase 2 expansion in Canada, South Railroad Project and Castle Mountain Gold Project in the U.S., and Los Filos Mining
Complex and Camino Rojo Mine in Mexico.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Second largest producer of Canadian gold**: The Greenstone Gold Mine,
Valentine Gold Mine, and Musselwhite Mine are expected to collectively produce 685,000 ounces of gold in 2026<sup>2</sup>, with significant
potential for production growth and mine life extension from expansion and exploration upside, resulting in significant production from
a market-preferred, low risk jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Substantial free cash flow generation and robust financial position**:
Combined free cash flow profile of approximately $1.4 billion in 2026 based on current analyst consensus estimates; combined entity expected
to have $1.4 billion of total available liquidity to drive growth and continued shareholder returns while maintaining strong financial
flexibility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Leadership and support from an industry leading team of mine builders and operators**: The combined company will be led by a team with a proven track record of shareholder value creation led by Charles Jeannes,
Darren Hall, and Jason Simpson, with ongoing support from Ross Beaty and key shareholders Pierre Lassonde and Prem Watsa and certain affiliates
of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Diversified portfolio offers enhanced scale and optionality**: Six producing
assets and four growth projects across four countries (Canada, U.S., Mexico, and Nicaragua) provide immediate operating strength, project
sequencing flexibility, known near-mine exploration upside, and longer-term optionality.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Enhanced capital markets profile and significant re-rating potential**:
The combined company offers greater scale, lower risk, peer-leading production growth underpinned by a sizeable Mineral Reserve endowment,
and superior free cash flow, providing significant re-rating potential.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Operational symmetry and enhanced efficiency**: The combination
of two public companies and two strong teams with complementary North American operating platforms is expected to drive operational efficiencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Review of strategic alternatives**: After consultation on the proposed
Arrangement with Orla's management team, their financial and legal advisors and, in the case of the board of directors of Orla (the "Board"),
with the special committee comprised of only independent directors of the Company (the "Special Committee"), and after review
of the current and prospective business climate in the mining industry, including assessing other potential strategic alternatives, including
a standalone independent scenario, in each case taking into account the potential benefits, risks and uncertainties associated with those
other opportunities, the Special Committee and the Board believe that the Arrangement is in the best interest of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Balanced governance and management participation**: The board of directors
of the combined company will consist of eleven directors with five directors coming from Orla's board of directors, including Charles
Jeannes who will be Chair of the board of directors of the combined company. Additionally, Orla's current President and Chief Executive
Officer, Jason Simpson, will become President of the combined company. All of these considerations will allow for oversight of, continuing
influence on, and input into the strategic direction of the combined company by people from Orla.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Other factors**: The Special Committee and the Board also carefully considered
the Arrangement with reference to current economics, industry and market trends affecting each of the Company and Equinox in the metals
and mining industry, information concerning mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates, business, operations, properties, assets,
financial condition, risks, operating results and prospects of each of the Company and Equinox and the historical trading prices of the
common shares of Orla and the common shares of Equinox, taking into account the results of the Company's due diligence review of Equinox
and its properties.
