INTEGRA ANNOUNCES 11,000 M DRILL PROGRAM ON 60 MILLION TONNES OF LOW-GRADE GOLD-SILVER MINERALIZED STOCKPILES FROM PREVIOUS OPERATORS, POTENTIAL TO INCREASE MINE LIFE AND EXPAND PRODUCTION

Integra Resources Corp. has commenced drilling on an estimated 60 million tonnes of low-grade, stockpiled gold-silver-mineralized material at the DeLamar and Florida Mountain deposits. This material was stockpiled at surface by previous operators and has the potential, pending further drilling, to significantly increase the heap leach mine life and production rates at the Project. This drill program is designed to estimate grade and grade variability within the stockpiles as well as to obtain material for metallurgical testwork to further understand the potential inclusion of this material in future mine plans and heap leach processing. The total drill program will include 11,000 m of shallow, dual rotary reverse circulation drilling and sonic drilling.

Highlights:

• Integra's exploration team has identified approximately 60 million tonnes of low-grade gold-silver mineralized material that was stockpiled and/or used as backfill by previous mine operators at DeLamar from the 1970s to the late 1990s.
• Based on historic mining, milling and drill data, Integra is confident that the bulk of this material is oxidized or partially oxidized and that the grade of most of this material should be sufficient to warrant processing as part of the heap leach operation.
• Previous operators at the DeLamar Project processed material through a mill with an average grade of 1.2 g/t gold ("Au") and 75 g/t silver ("Ag") (2.2 g/t gold equivalent ("AuEq)), with an estimated average mill cut-off grade of 0.80 g/t AuEq to 0.90 g/t AuEq.
• In the DeLamar Pre-feasibility Study ("PFS"), the average grade of the heap leach gold-silver material was 0.61 g/t AuEq, using a cut-off of 0.2 g/t AuEq, suggesting a significant amount of the 60 Mt of stockpiled material could be amenable to heap leaching with an average grade range of 0.3 to 0.6 g/t AuEq.
• Core and reverse circulation ("RC") drilling through the stockpile and back fill material by Integra and previous mine operators, while not being as reliable as the planned dual rotary and sonic drill program about to commence, does add strong support to the assumption that this material is likely to be of sufficient grade to include in the heap leach operation:
• • IDM-22-206: 0.28 g/t Au and 50.98 g/t Ag (0.93 g/t AuEq over 102.41 meters ("m")
    • Including 0.10 g/t Au and 833.0 g/t Ag (10.82 g/t AuEq) over 2.90 m
  • IDM-22-211: 0.42 g/t Au and 82.20 g/t Ag (1.48 g/t AuEq) over 59.74 m
  • IDM-18-042C: 0.49 g/t Au and 17.74 g/t Ag (0.72 g/t AuEq) over 34.14 m
• Including 3.62 g/t Au and 66.90 g/t Ag (4.48 g/t AuEq) over 2.13 m
• Integra will commence a 11,000 m drill program on these at surface, low-grade stockpiles at DeLamar and Florida Mountain in mid-to-late-September. The stockpiles average 36 m in thickness with a maximum thickness of 126 m. Drill holes will be drilled through the entirety of the stockpiles.
• Integra aims to complete drilling, sampling, and metallurgical testing on this stockpiled material, aiming at a resource estimate update and incorporation of this material into a Mine Plan of Operations ("MPO") plan in 2023.

"We are excited to commence drilling on the stockpiled material at DeLamar and Florida Mountain as it has the potential to significantly increase the mine life and economics of the proposed future heap leach project at DeLamar. If even a portion of this material meets expectations in regards to grade and recoverability, it has the potential to meaningfully enhance the project. Our studies indicate that a substantial amount of material stockpiled and/or used as backfill, estimated to be as much as 60 Mt, resides in a potential grade range of 0.3 g/t to 0.6 g/t AuEq and could provide a large source of low-cost, low-strip Oxide and Mixed material that could be included in future heap leach mine plans. Based on historic mining records from the 1970s to 1990s, the Company expects the gold-silver grades in these stockpiles to be well above the heap leach cut-off grade used in the 2022 PFS," stated George Salamis, President and CEO of Integra Resources. "The Company has initiated a fully-financed, 11,000 m dual rotary RC and sonic drill program designed to test these stockpiles with fences of shallow drill holes. The drilling is expected to take approximately 3 months and will be conducted in various locations where 60 Mt of stockpiled and backfilled material is located. The opportunity here is very clear: In the PFS, the cost of moving much of these stockpiles to access mineralized material below was included in the pre-stripping costs. As such, subject to success in terms of grade definition and potential Oxide and Mixed recoverability in these stockpiles, the Company plans to turn this material from a cost into a significant benefit to the Project through increased life of mine and value accretion."

The Proof of Concept: Evidence of Grade in Stockpiles and Backfill:

The Company has drilled through backfill and low-grade stockpiles on a number of occasions through normal course drilling on the Project since 2018. This drilling, in addition to historic drilling from previous operators, provides a strong case to substantiate the potential mineralization in these stockpiles and backfill.

Below are select drill highlights that encountered Oxide and Mixed mineralization in stockpiles and/or backfill:

Execution of Drill Program: Methodology and Timeline

The stockpile drilling program will be executed at 60 m collar spacing with select 30 m infill test holes. All drilling will be vertical through the entirety of the stockpiles. This drilling will be conducted by a combination of dual rotary RC and sonic drilling methods. Both these drilling methods will serve to maintain high sample quality through the drilling process. Additionally, the two sampling methods will provide a basis for comparison for continuity. Sampling will be conducted at 1.5 m intervals for the whole of the drilling with all samples sent to a third-party lab for analysis. These drilling methods provide the opportunity for various metallurgical tests, as well. Bottle rolls will be collected on crushed material and column testing is planned for select material obtained with the sonic drill. Once begun the drilling will take approximately three months to complete at 60 m spacings.

Description of the PFS Mine Plan and Heap Leach Focus

The Company's 2022 PFS study demonstrated a robust, economic project with significant optionality and upside potential. The Company has commenced permitting and plans to commence development and operation of the project with a low-cost, high-margin 35,000 tonne per day ("mtpd") heap leach facility. The simple, low-cost, low-risk strategy to focus on the financial engine of the project, the heap leach, does not negate the strong optionality of the project in multiple areas. Based on internal models generated by the Company, adding Oxide and Mixed material to the heap leach significantly increases the mine life and is very accretive to the Project's value, at a very low-cost.

Advancing the DeLamar gold-silver project towards permitting and development of the heap leach stage as a stand-alone mining operation, is a far lower cost, lower risk option for the Company and its shareholders, creating strong economic returns and rapid payback. In these inflationary times, with increased scrutiny on permitting of all resource projects, this is the optimal strategy for the Company and its shareholders, as it vastly reduces execution risk. Adding stockpiled and backfill material residing at surface, with little or no stripping required, subject to successful delineation and inclusion in future mine plans, has phenomenal value-add potential at a very low-cost.

Sampling and QA/QC Procedure

Thorough QA/QC protocols are followed on the Project, including insertion of duplicate, blank and standard samples in the assay stream for all drill holes. The samples are submitted directly to American Assay Labs in Reno, Nevada for preparation and analysis. Analysis of gold is performed using fire assay method with atomic absorption (AA) finish on a 1 assay ton aliquot. Gold results over 5 g/t are re-run using a gravimetric finish. Silver analysis is performed using ICP for results up to 100 g/t on a 5-acid digestion, with a fire assay, gravimetric finish for results over 100 g/t silver.
