The merger with Orla Mining is complete. Equinox will thus become a leading gold producer in North America, with an expected annual output of approximately 1.1 million ounces of gold (with the potential to exceed 1.9 million ounces through growth projects). The Board of Directors has approved the Phase 2 expansion of the Valentine Mine (capacity to 5.0 Mtpa, production of approximately 223,000 ounces, completion by the end of 2028). At the same time, the cash dividend was increased by 50% to an annualized $0.09 per share.
