VANCOUVER, BC, March 2, 2026 /CNW/ - Integra Resources Corp. ("Integra" or the "Company") (TSXV: ITR) (NYSE American: ITRG) is pleased to announce the appointment of Scott Guay, P.Eng., as Vice President, Project Development, effective March 2, 2026.

Mr. Guay brings more than 25 years of engineering and project delivery services experience required to successfully deliver large-scale mining and infrastructure developments. In his role as Vice President, Project Development of Integra, Mr. Guay will be responsible for overseeing all aspects of engineering, procurement, construction management and project controls across Integra's development-stage portfolio of assets.   Mr. Guay's primary focus will be advancing the Company's flagship DeLamar Project ("DeLamar"), located in southwestern Idaho, toward construction.

Mr. Guay joins Integra from Kinross Gold Corporation ("Kinross"), where he held senior leadership roles overseeing global mining project services and delivery of capital projects. During his more than 15-year tenure, he supported multiple complex, large-scale gold mine expansions and mine restart projects across North and South America and Africa, contributing to project planning, engineering management, procurement strategy, and execution governance for projects of significant strategic importance.

This appointment reflects Integra's continued evolution as a growing gold producer and its commitment to strengthening internal mine development and construction expertise as the Company advances DeLamar toward construction.

Cliff Lafleur, Chief Operating Officer of Integra, commented: "Scott's appointment represents an important step forward for Integra as we continue to build a team capable of delivering large-scale mining projects safely, efficiently, and with discipline. His extensive experience leading complex capital projects at a major gold producer like Kinross brings exactly the type of execution capability we need as DeLamar advances toward construction. Scott has a proven track record of managing multidisciplinary teams, developing robust project execution strategies and programs, and delivering projects through all stages of study and development. His addition reinforces our commitment to advancing and de-risking our portfolio of development-stage assets, especially positioning DeLamar for successful execution. We are very pleased to welcome Scott to Integra at a pivotal time for the Company."

Mr. Guay added: "Integra has assembled a strong portfolio of assets and a clear path toward growth as a gold producer. The DeLamar Project represents a compelling development opportunity, and I look forward to working with the team to advance engineering, planning, and execution activities as the Company moves toward the next phase of mine development."

Mr. Guay holds a Bachelor of Engineering (Engineering Physics) from McMaster University and is a Professional Engineer registered in Ontario.
