September 14, 2026 – Vancouver, Canada – First Mining Gold Corp. (“First Mining” or the “Company”) (TSX: FF) (OTCQX: FFMGF) (FRANKFURT: FMG) is pleased to announce that it has been added to the MVIS® Global Junior Gold Miners Index (" MVGDXJ "), the underlying benchmark index for the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF (" GDXJ ").  Pursuant to the MVGDXJ's semi-annual review and rebalancing, First Mining’s inclusion will be effective at the close of trading on September 18, 2026.  The GDXJ is a widely followed gold industry exchange traded fund that provides investors with exposure to a portfolio of the most liquid junior gold and silver mining, development and exploration companies.
“We believe our inclusion in the GDXJ will enhance First Mining's visibility among institutional and retail investors, improve trading liquidity, and increase our exposure to global capital markets as we continue to advance our gold projects in Ontario and Quebec,” stated Dan Wilton, CEO of First Mining. “This is an exciting step forward for the Company and our shareholders.”
