SSR MINING Publishes ESG and SUSTAINABILITY REPORT

DENVER, CO – SSR Mining Inc. (NASDAQ/TSX: SSRM; ASX: SSR) (“SSR Mining”) announced today the publication of its ESG and Sustainability Report. The report outlines our approach to sustainability across a range of areas and summarizes our 2020 performance.

Rod Antal, President and CEO, commented, “I am pleased to introduce SSR Mining’s third annual ESG and Sustainability Report and our first since the transformational merger with Alacer Gold. This report builds on our purpose of creating value and leaving a legacy through responsible and sustainable operations. With this mindset, we seized the opportunity to fully embed sustainability at the core of the new SSR Mining and one of the first actions after the merger was to identify and bring together the best practices of the new combined business.”

Sustainability Report Highlights

Amalgamation of best practices from across our business to develop an integrated Environment, Health, Safety and Sustainability (“EHSS”) management system.

New suite of sustainability policies released to align with leading industry practices.

Commitment to establishing an action plan to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

Improved disclosures on climate and water management by responding to Carbon Disclosure Project (“CDP”), and by aligning our reporting with the requirements of the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (“TCFD”).

Focus on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion with an updated and broadened Diversity Policy and strategic planning.

The report is available on our website at www.ssrmining.com.
