HEMLO MINING CORP. LAUNCHES NEW LOGO, BRANDING AND WEBSITE

New branding unveiled as part of Company's ringing opening bell on first day of trading on TSXV

Logo embodies Company's mission and values as new Canadian mid-tier gold producer

TORONTO, Dec. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Hemlo Mining Corp. (TSXV: HMMC) ("Hemlo" or the "Company") is launching its new logo, branding and website today at the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") in Toronto.   The new logo is being unveiled on the first day of trading of the Company's common shares on the TSXV, with the Company's directors and management ringing the opening bell.

John Awde, the Company's Executive Chairman, stated: "With the completion of the Company's acquisition of the Hemlo Gold mine, we have launched Hemlo Mining Corp. as a new Canadian mid-tier gold producer.  Our mission is to build a resilient, disciplined, and performance-driven mining company that operates with an owner's mentality: moving with conviction, thinking long-term, and executing with precision."

Hemlo's new logo mark is divided into seven boxes, each representing one of the Company's seven core values: Resilience, Agility, Performance, Value Creation, Owner Mentality, Discipline and Zero Harm.

The dot pattern shown in the "H" icon is inspired by the LED lights seen in a modern sport scoreboard, with the accompanying tagline, "Earn Every Ounce".  

Jason Kosec, the Company's President & Chief Executive Officer, noted: "Our new branding represents our determination to "earn every ounce" as we work to add value for our shareholders, communities and other stakeholders. The analogy to operating like a professional sports team is that we are all focused on working together and working safely, to bring home strong production results for all of our stakeholders."

The new logo and branding will be rolled over the coming weeks on physical assets at the Hemlo gold mine in Northwestern Ontario, replacing the legacy branding.

The Company has launched a new website, at www.hemlomining.com, and new social media channels on LinkedIn, Facebook and X, to communicate with its stakeholders. 

Trademark applications have been filed or are in process for the corporate name and logo in Canada and the United States.
