NEWS RELEASE
Lundin Mining Announces 2023 Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Estimates
Vancouver, February 8, 2024 (TSX: LUN; Nasdaq Stockholm: LUMI) Lundin Mining Corporation (“Lundin
Mining” or the “Company”) today reported its Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates effective as of
December 31, 2023 (or otherwise specified herein). On a 100% consolidated basis, the estimated Proven and
Probable Mineral Reserve of contained copper is 10,630 kt (23. 4 Blb) an increase of 2,2 20 kt (4.9 Blb) over the
previous year. Lundin Mining also has significant Proven and Probable Mineral Reserve s in other base and
precious metals including 2,554 kt (5.6 Blb) of zinc, 51 kt (11 2 Mlb) of nickel, 12.0 Moz of gold, and 157. 0 Moz of
silver.
Net revisions (increases/decreases) are primarily the result of changes to mining regulations that impacted
underground geotechnical parameters at Candelaria and additions from exploration and resource input
updates at Caserones.
Jack Lundin, President and CEO, commented “This year, we grew our Mineral R eserve base through the strategic
acquisition of Caserones, which contributed to an increase in our overall Proven and Probable copper Reserves by 26%
on a 100% basis. Since the acquisition the Company has added an additional 350 kt of copper Proven and Probable
Mineral Reserves at Caserones. We have also initiated the first significant exploration drill program at Caserones since
the mine began operating in 2013 targeting Mineral Resources and mine life extension.
At Candelaria, additional drilling at La Espanola and Santos contributed to an increase in overall Mineral Resources,
offsetting changes to underground mining regulations which have impacted underground Mineral Resources.
The additional drilling at the Sauva deposit in 2023 grew the Measured and Indicated copper Mineral Resources by 25%,
Sauva now contains a Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of 245 Mt at 0.29% copper and 0.17 g/t gold. We will
continue to evaluate options for future processing, which might include, among other options, integrating this material
into Chapada’s processing facility.
At Neves-Corvo and Zinkgruvan, infill drilling campaigns successfully replaced Mineral Reserve depletion from mining
during the year.”
Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Highlights
• Candelaria (Chile): Mineral Reserve reductions at Candelaria were primarily driven by depletion from
production and new geotechnical constraints for underground mining. Decreases were partially offset
by the addition of Mineral Reserves at La Espanola, Santos and the Candelaria main pit. The underground
expansion project (“CUGEP”) will be evaluated to include changes in the geotechnical parameters
recommended by the local authorities. A total of 42,190 metres were drilled for exploration purposes at
Candelaria underground (north and south), Candelaria west and south extensions, and at Santos.

2022 Copper Reserves (P&P) 8,410
Depletion (-) 482
Acquisition (+) 2,550
Net Revisions (+) 152
2023 Copper Reserves (P&P) 10,630
• Caserones (Chile): Caserones Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources increased from higher metal
price forecasts, block model updates and changes to Mineral Resource classification.
• Chapada (Brazil): Mineral Reserve changes were mainly the result of mine depletion, updated
metallurgical recoveries and increased operating cost assumptions. Total exploration drilling at Chapada
for 2023 was 23,614 metres, primarily focused on Baru northeast, Chapada sou thwest, Cava Norte,
Sucupira and Corpo Sul.
• Sauva (Brazil): The deposit, which is located approximately 15 km north of Chapada, remains open in
all directions. Additional drilling during the year tested step -out anomalies along the broader Sa uva-
Formiga trend which contributed to an increase in Mineral Resources. The Sauva deposit increased by
25% from 578 kt to 721 kt of copper in the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource categories.
• Eagle (USA): The increase in Mineral Reserves at Eagle is primarily due to the increase in metal price
assumptions and a change in mining method in the Keel zone which extends the mine life into 2029.
Lower cut-off grades from the application of bulk mining methods have decreased average head grades.
• Neves Corvo (Portugal): Mineral Reserves remain in-line with last year ’s estimate . Conversion of
previously Inferred Mineral Resources has helped offset mining depletion during the year . In 2023,
exploration drilling focused on extending near -mine mineralization. A total of 29,635 m etres of
exploration drilling were completed in 2023.
• Zinkgruvan (Sweden): Additions to Mineral Reserves at Zinkgruvan were primarily driven by increases
in metal prices, improvement in metallurgical recovery, and Mineral Resource conversion from infill
drilling. In 2023, exploration drilling at Zinkgruvan was primarily focused on near-mine expansion along
known mineralized trends. A total of 31,820 metres were drilled from underground and surface targeting
extensions of known resources.

an open pit discard NSR cut-off value of $5.80/t. For the Suruca copper -gold, NSR cut-off value of $6.80/t was
used for oxide (heap leach) and sulphide portion, and $11.42/t for oxide (carbon-in-leach). For the Suruca gold
only Mineral Resource estimates, NSR cut-off values of $6.80/t for oxides and $11.42/t for mixed and sulphide
were used. Mineral Reserves are estimated using open pit discard NSR cut-off values of $5.80/t and $6.80/t for
the Chapada open pit and Suruca gold oxides respectively.

Goiás State, Brazil, dated October 10, 2019 which is available on Lundin Mining’s SEDAR + profile
atwww.sedarplus.ca.
Eagle
The Eagle Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates are reported using NSR cut-off values of $143.9/t,
$150.4/t, $176.4/t and $151.2/t for Eagle, Upper Keel and Eagle East cut and fill and stope zones, respectively. The
NSR is calculated on a recovered payable basis considering nickel, copper, cobalt, gold and PGM grades,
metallurgical recoveries, prices and realization costs.
