Year-to-Date ("YTD") 2021 MILESTONES AND HIGHLIGHTS

--Gold production: 133,537 ounces; on track to deliver at the high-end of 2021 guidance (170,000 to 180,000 ounces) with the fourth quarter anticipated to be the strongest yet including some of the highest grade ore of the year from the Limon Central mine--Gold sales of 134,035 ounces generating $240.0 million in revenue, at an average realized price(1) of $1,791 per ounce;--Generated $83.2 million in cash from operating activities;--Net income of $43.6 million, with basic net income per share of $0.13;--Consolidated Total Cash Costs(1) and AISC(1) of $1,008 and $1,135 per ounce, respectively; and--Significant operational and exploration developments including: ==Update of Company reserves as at December 31, 2020 which included a significant increase in reserves to 864,000 ounces;==Positive Pavon gold mine Pre-Feasibility Study demonstrating strong exploration potential;==Exploration results announced throughout YTD 2021, including expanded details on Calibre's 2021 exploration plans.

Darren Hall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Calibre, stated: "The Calibre team delivered another solid quarter of production demonstrating the quality and reliability of our assets as we continue to deliver strong operating cash flows by executing on our hub-and-spoke operating strategy. The ramp up at Pavon Norte exceeded expectations by achieving haulage rates of 1,000 tonnes per day from Pavon Norte to the Libertad mill, three months ahead of schedule. In addition, we recently commenced a multi-rig exploration drill program at Pavon Central where we see excellent potential to expand resources and make discoveries along this emerging district.

Exciting progress continues at the Eastern Borosi Project, our next Mining Spoke, with drilling returning some of the best near-surface intercepts to date, including 25.07 g/t gold over 9.7 metres. With technical and environmental studies ongoing and resource expansion and discovery drilling programs well underway, we anticipate we can grow current deposits both on strike and down dip of known zones while testing new veins as we commence permitting in Q1 2022.

Additionally, with multi-rig exploration drill programs active across all our mine sites and satellite opportunities plus the approval of new mineral exploration concessions granted during the quarter we remain committed to reinvesting into our business through mine development and exploration to increase resource confidence, expand our growth potential up from the current 865,000 ounces of reserves at 4.49 g/t gold and responsibly deliver on our commitments.

For the balance of the year, with $73 million in cash, unhedged and no debt, we are in a strong position to continue to generate significant free cash flow while self-funding growth, exploration, and mine development investment.

The transaction with Fiore Gold builds on our focus and commitment to create value for our shareholders bringing a diversified asset base and immediate production and strong growth and exploration upside in Nevada, the top mining jurisdiction in the world(3). I look forward to closing this transaction, advancing progress on Gold Rock and accelerating exploration drilling on both Pan and Gold Rock as both present very attractive discovery and resource building upside."
