SSR Mining Completes the Sale of Its 20% Equity Interest in Hod Maden

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SSR Mining Inc. (Nasdaq/TSX: SSRM) ("SSR Mining" or the “Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed the sale of its 20% ownership stake in the Hod Maden development project (the “Project”). At closing, SSR Mining received an uncapped 4.0% net smelter return royalty (“NSR”) ⁽¹⁾ on 100% of the Project (the “Transaction”).

The 4.0% Hod Maden NSR strengthens SSR Mining’s existing royalty portfolio, which currently includes NSRs on the San Luis project (4.0%) owned by Highlander Silver, the Pitarrilla project (1.25%) owned by Endeavour Silver, the Rowan property (3.0%) owned by West Red Lake Gold, and the Sunrise Lake property (4.0%) owned by Honey Badger Silver.

The Transaction closing, together with the previously announced divestment of the Çöpler mine in Türkiye, completes SSR Mining’s strategic refocus to a free cash flow leading Americas gold and silver producer anchored by its long-lived operations in the United States.

SSR Mining would like to thank its employees and local communities across Türkiye for their cooperation, effort and support.
