Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 22, 2026, Coeur Mining, Inc. (the “Company”) completed its previously
announced private exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) and consent solicitation (the “Consent Solicitation”) relating to the $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “Existing Notes”) issued by New Gold Inc.  In
connection with the settlement of the Exchange Offer, the Company issued $385,774,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6.875% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “Notes”) in a private exchange to Eligible Holders in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and, outside the United States, in offshore transactions in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of April 22, 2026 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, as issuer, certain of the
Company’s subsidiaries named therein, as guarantors thereto (the “Guarantors”), and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”).  The Indenture, which includes the form of the Notes, is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated
herein by reference.  The description of the Indenture and the Notes in this report are summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by the terms of the Indenture and the Notes, respectively.

The Company did not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the Notes.  The Notes were issued in exchange for Existing Notes
tendered and accepted in the Exchange Offer, and the Company paid cash consideration in connection therewith, together with fees and expenses related to the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation.

The Notes are the Company’s unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of its existing and future
unsecured senior debt and rank senior in right of payment to all of its existing and future subordinated debt.  The Notes are effectively subordinated to any of the Company’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets
securing such debt.  Initially, the Company’s obligations under the Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries.  In addition, each of the Company’s restricted subsidiaries that guarantees other
indebtedness that exceeds $20,000,000 aggregate principal amount, will be required to guarantee the Notes in the future.  The guarantees rank equally in right of payment to all of the Guarantors’ existing and future unsecured senior debt and rank
senior in right of payment to all of the Guarantors’ existing and future subordinated debt.  The guarantees are effectively subordinated to any of the Guarantors’ existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing
such debt.  The Notes are also structurally subordinated to the liabilities of subsidiaries of the Company that have not guaranteed the Notes.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.875% per year from the date of issuance.  Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in
arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year.

At any time prior to April 1, 2028, the Company may redeem all or part of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’
prior notice at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus (ii) a make-whole premium as of the date of redemption, plus (iii) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to the date of redemption.  In
addition, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes on or after April 1, 2028, at redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest.  At any time prior to April 1, 2028, the Company may use the proceeds
of certain equity offerings to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price specified in the Indenture.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture), unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes, each
holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.

If the Company or its restricted subsidiaries sell assets under certain circumstances specified in the Indenture and do not use the proceeds for
certain specified purposes, the Company must offer to use certain net proceeds therefrom to repurchase the Notes and other debt that ranks equal in right of payment to the Notes on a pro rata basis.  The purchase price of the Notes will be equal to
100% of the principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable date of repurchase.

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability under certain circumstances to incur additional indebtedness,
pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock, prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt, make loans and investments, create liens, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets, enter into transactions with
affiliates, enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends and impose conditions on the Company’s ability to engage in mergers, consolidations and sales of all or substantially all of its assets.

The Indenture also contains certain “Events of Default” (as defined in the Indenture) customary for indentures of this type.  If an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may declare all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all the Notes to be due and
payable.
