              proposed Arrangement on the combined company&#8217;s results of operations, financial position, growth opportunities and competitive position, including maintaining current Coeur and SilverCrest management, strategies and plans and integration. The
              forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and applicable

              materially from those anticipated, including, but not limited to, the possibility that shareholders of SilverCrest may not approve the Arrangement or stockholders of Coeur may not approve the Stock Issuance or the Charter Amendment; the risk
              that any other condition to Closing may not be satisfied; the risk that the Closing might be delayed or not occur at all; the anticipated timing of mailing proxy statements and circulars regarding the Arrangement; the risk that the either
              Coeur or SilverCrest may terminate the Arrangement Agreement and either Coeur or SilverCrest is required to pay a termination fee to the other party; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships of Coeur or
              SilverCrest, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the Arrangement; the diversion of management time on transaction-related issues; the ultimate timing, outcome and results of integrating the operations of Coeur and
              SilverCrest; the effects of the business combination of Coeur and SilverCrest, including the combined company&#8217;s future financial condition, results of operations, strategy and plans; the ability of the combined company to realize anticipated
              synergies in the timeframe expected or at all; changes in capital markets and the ability of the combined company to finance operations in the manner expected; the risk that Coeur or SilverCrest may not receive the required stock exchange and
              regulatory approvals of the Arrangement; the expected listing of shares on the NYSE; the risk of any litigation relating to the proposed Arrangement; the risk of changes in governmental regulations or enforcement practices; the effects of
              commodity prices, life of mine estimates; the timing and amount of estimated future production; the risks of mining activities; and the fact that operating costs and business disruption may be greater than expected following the public
              announcement or consummation of the Arrangement. Expectations regarding business outlook, including changes in revenue, pricing, capital expenditures, cash flow generation, strategies for the combined company&#8217;s operations, gold and silver
              market conditions, legal, economic and regulatory conditions, and environmental matters are only forecasts regarding these matters.</div>

                      change in the form of payment pursuant to Section 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. Accordingly, and notwithstanding the foregoing, if required, the exercise price of a Parent Replacement Option will be adjusted

        CDE) and SilverCrest Metals Inc. (&#8220;SilverCrest&#8221;) (TSX: SIL; NYSE American: SILV) announce that they have entered into a definitive agreement (the &#8220;Agreement&#8221;) whereby, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Coeur will acquire all of the issued and
        outstanding shares of SilverCrest pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement (the &#8220;Transaction&#8221;).</div>
      <div>&#160;</div>
      <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 10pt;">Under the terms of the Agreement, SilverCrest shareholders will receive 1.6022 Coeur common shares for each SilverCrest common share (the &#8220;Exchange Ratio&#8221;). The
        Exchange Ratio implies consideration of $11.34 per SilverCrest common share, based on the closing price of Coeur common shares on the New York Stock Exchange (&#8220;NYSE&#8221;) on October 3, 2024. This represents an 18% premium based on 20-day
        volume-weighted average prices of Coeur and SilverCrest each as at October 3, 2024 on the NYSE and NYSE American, respectively, and a 22% premium to the October 3, 2024 closing price of SilverCrest on the NYSE American. This implies a total equity
        value of approximately $1.7 billion based on SilverCrest&#8217;s common shares outstanding. Upon completion of the Transaction, existing Coeur stockholders and SilverCrest shareholders will own approximately 63% and 37% of the outstanding common stock of
        the combined company, respectively.</div>

      <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 10pt;">&#8220;The acquisition of SilverCrest creates a leading global silver company by adding low-cost silver and gold production and significant free cash flow to our rapidly
        growing production and cash flow driven by the recent expansion of our Rochester silver and gold mine in Nevada,&#8221; said Mitchell J. Krebs, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Coeur. &#8220;Together with SilverCrest&#8217;s large and growing cash
        balance and no debt, our balance sheet is expected to be materially strengthened on day one. This immediate deleveraging, along with the significant combined expected free cash flow, will allow for rapid debt repayment and investment in other
        organic growth opportunities while offering shareholders an unparalleled re-rating opportunity. With over 15 years of experience operating our Palmarejo underground silver and gold operation next door in Chihuahua, we look forward to adding the
        high-quality Las Chispas mine to create a leading global silver company at a time when the demand for silver in renewable energy and a wide range of electrification end uses is rapidly rising.&#8221;</div>

        years taking Las Chispas from discovery to production and creating one of the world&#8217;s premier silver operations. Our operational consistency since declaring commercial production in late 2022 is a testament not only to the asset quality, but also
        our outstanding team and strong stakeholder relationships. I feel confident that the Coeur team will extend this track record of success at Las Chispas and believe this transaction is the best opportunity for shareholders to not only receive an
        immediate premium, but also have the opportunity to become meaningful owners of a growing, multi-asset, U.S.-based, NYSE-listed silver and gold company with tremendous upside potential. I am excited to continue to be involved as an ongoing Director
        of Coeur.&#8221;</div>

      <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 10pt;">Coeur&#8217;s public disclosures are governed by the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including Regulation S-K 1300 thereunder, whereas SilverCrest
        discloses estimates of &#8220;measured,&#8221; &#8220;indicated,&#8221; and &#8220;inferred&#8221; mineral resources as such terms are used in Canada&#8217;s National Instrument 43-101. Although S-K 1300 and NI 43-101 have similar goals in terms of conveying an appropriate level of
        confidence in the disclosures being reported, they at times embody different approaches or definitions. Consequently, investors are cautioned that public disclosures by SilverCrest prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 may not be comparable to
        similar information made public by companies, including Coeur, subject to S-K 1300 and the other reporting and disclosure requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. The scientific and technical
        information concerning Coeur&#8217;s mineral projects in this communication have been reviewed and approved by a &#8220;qualified person&#8221; under Item 1300 of SEC Regulation S-K, namely Coeur&#8217;s Senior Director, Technical Services, Christopher Pascoe. The
        SilverCrest &#8220;qualified person&#8221; under NI 43-101 for this communication is N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, CEO for SilverCrest, who has reviewed and approved its contents.</div>

The words &#8220;anticipate,&#8221; &#8220;believe,&#8221; &#8220;ensure,&#8221; &#8220;expect,&#8221; &#8220;if,&#8221; &#8220;intend,&#8221; &#8220;estimate,&#8221; &#8220;probable,&#8221; &#8220;project,&#8221; &#8220;forecasts,&#8221; &#8220;predict,&#8221; &#8220;outlook,&#8221; &#8220;aim,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;could,&#8221; &#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;would,&#8221;
        &#8220;potential,&#8221; &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;might,&#8221; &#8220;anticipate,&#8221; &#8220;likely&#8221; &#8220;plan,&#8221; &#8220;positioned,&#8221; &#8220;strategy,&#8221; and similar expressions or other words of similar meaning, and the negatives thereof, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Specific forward-
        looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Coeur&#8217;s or SilverCrest&#8217;s plans and expectations with respect to the proposed Transaction and the anticipated impact of the proposed Transaction on the combined company&#8217;s
        results of operations, financial position, growth opportunities and competitive position, including maintaining current Coeur and SilverCrest management, strategies and plans and integration. The forward-looking statements are intended to be
        subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and applicable Canadian securities laws.</div>
      <div>&#160;</div>
      <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 10pt;">These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated, including,
        but not limited to, the possibility that shareholders of SilverCrest may not approve the Transaction or stockholders of Coeur may not approve the Stock Issuance or the Charter Amendment; the risk that any other condition to closing of the
        Transaction may not be satisfied; the risk that the closing of the Transaction might be delayed or not occur at all; the anticipated timing of mailing proxy statements and circulars regarding the Transaction; the risk that the either Coeur or
        SilverCrest may terminate the Agreement and either Coeur or SilverCrest is required to pay a termination fee to the other party; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships of Coeur or SilverCrest, including those
        resulting from the announcement or completion of the Transaction; the diversion of management time on transaction-related issues; the ultimate timing, outcome and results of integrating the operations of Coeur and SilverCrest; the effects of the
        business combination of Coeur and SilverCrest, including the combined company&#8217;s future financial condition, results of operations, strategy and plans; the ability of the combined company to realize anticipated synergies in the timeframe expected or
        at all; changes in capital markets and the ability of the combined company to finance operations in the manner expected; the risk that Coeur or SilverCrest may not receive the required stock exchange and regulatory approvals of the Transaction; the
        expected listing of shares on the NYSE; the risk of any litigation relating to the proposed Transaction; the risk of changes in governmental regulations or enforcement practices; the effects of commodity prices, life of mine estimates; the timing
        and amount of estimated future production; the risks of mining activities; and the fact that operating costs and business disruption may be greater than expected following the public announcement or consummation of the Transaction. Expectations
        regarding business outlook, including changes in revenue, pricing, capital expenditures, cash flow generation, strategies for the combined company&#8217;s operations, gold and silver market conditions, legal, economic and regulatory conditions, and
        environmental matters are only forecasts regarding these matters.</div>

        obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by applicable securities

      <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 10pt;">This press release contains certain non-GAAP and non-IFRS financial measures, which management believes may enable investors to better evaluate the Coeur and
        SilverCrest performance, liquidity and ability to generate cash flow. These measures do not have any standardized definition under U.S. GAAP or IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared
        in accordance with U.S. GAAP or IFRS, as applicable. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.</div>
