VANCOUVER, Oct. 13, 2020 - Lundin Gold Inc. ("Lundin Gold" or the "Company") (TSX: LUG) (Nasdaq Stockholm: LUG) is pleased to report production of 94,250 ounces of gold from its Fruta del Norte gold mine ("Fruta del Norte") in southeast Ecuador for the third quarter of 2020, which was the first full quarter of operations for Fruta del Norte.

During the quarter, the mill processed approximately 324,000 tonnes at an average throughput rate of 3,340 tonnes per day. The average grade of ore milled for the quarter was 10.4 grams per tonne, and average recovery was 86.8%.

"The re-start and ramp-up of operations went very smoothly following the three-month suspension of operations due to COVID-19," said Ron Hochstein, President and CEO of Lundin Gold. "Our first full quarter of operations has demonstrated what Fruta del Norte is capable of achieving."

At the end of the third quarter, total gold production so far this year is 145,570 ounces. At this time, the Company is maintaining its production outlook of 150,000 to 170,000 ounces at Fruta del Norte for the second half of 2020, targeting the upper end of the range based on its fourth quarter plan of mining and processing ore, at a slightly lower average grade compared to the third quarter. Together with production achieved prior to the onset of the temporary suspension, total 2020 gold production is estimated to be between 200,000 and 220,000 ounces.
