(1)	Mr. Absolom was awarded (i) 22,573 restricted stock units on June 21, 2022; 19,802 restricted stock units on June 21, 2023, and 19,342 restricted stock units on June 21, 2024. One-third of those restricted stock units vested on June 23, 2025. To cover his tax liability on those vested units, Hecla Mining Company withheld 6,101 shares.
(2)	Consists of 14,472 shares held directly, 36,524 performance-based units, and 36,676 unvested restricted stock units.
(3)	Award of restricted stock units that vest as follows: 5,728 shares on June 21, 2026, 5,727 shares on June 21, 2027, and 5,727 shares on June 21, 2028.
(4)	See footnote 2.
(5)	Held as 1,227.194 units in Mr. Absolom's 401(k) account under the Hecla Mining Company Capital Accumulation Plan and estimated to be 14,693 shares.
(6)	Mr. Absolom was awarded performance rights representing the contingent right to receive between $100,000 and $200,000 worth of Hecla Mining Company common stock based on Hecla Mining Company's Total Shareholder Return performance over the 3-year period (January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2027) relative to our peers. Examples of the potential grant of shares to Mr. Absolom under this plan are as follows: 100th percentile rank among peers = maximum award at 200% of target ($200,000 in stock); 50th percentile rank among peers = target award at grant value ($100,000 in stock); and 0 percentile rank among peers = threshold award below 25% of target.
