VANCOUVER, July 4, 2017 - Integra Gold Corp. (TSX-V: ICG; OTCQX: ICGQF) ("Integra" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the previously announced acquisition by Eldorado Gold Corp. ("Eldorado") (TSX: ELD; NYSE: EGO) of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Integra (the "Integra Shares") that it does not currently own, by way of a plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") has been approved by shareholders of Integra ("Integra Shareholders"). At the special meeting of Integra Shareholders held on July 4, 2017 (the "Meeting"), a special resolution approving the Arrangement was approved by 85.92% of the votes cast at the Meeting in person or by proxy by Integra Shareholders and approved by 82.91% of the votes cast at the Meeting in person or by proxy by Integra Shareholders, excluding the votes cast in respect of Integra Shares held by interested parties (including Eldorado) required to be excluded pursuant to applicable securities law.

On closing of the Arrangement, each Integra Shareholder (excluding Eldorado) will be entitled to receive, in consideration for each Integra share held, one of the following, at the election of the holder (provided that such election is validly made prior to July 5, 2017 and subject to the pro ration limitations described below, as applicable): (i) 0.24250 of an Eldorado share plus C$0.001, (ii) C$1.21250 in cash, or (iii) 0.18188 of an Eldorado share and C$0.30313 in cash.

About Integra Gold

Integra Gold is a junior gold exploration company. The Company's primary focus is its Lamaque project located in Val-d'Or, Québec, one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world. In the fall of 2014, Integra completed the accretive acquisition of the Sigma Mill and Mine Complex, a fully permitted 2,200 ton per day mill and tailings facility. With major federal and provincial permits in place, existing infrastructure and significant exploration potential, this acquisition removed major costs and shortened timelines typically associated with mine projects. Integra has raised over $150 million since 2013, at successively higher share prices, despite depressed gold prices.
