Press Release

Toronto, Canada February 11, 2003Kinross Gold Corporation (TSX-K; NYSE-KGC) (“Kinross”) is pleased to announce that Kinross has been selected by Standard & Poor’s to be added to the S&P/TSX 60 and 60 Capped Indices, effective after the close of business on Tuesday, February 11, 2003. Robert M. Buchan, President & CEO, stated: “It is very gratifying that within ten years of the formation of Kinross that our common shares have been included in the S&P/TSX 60 Index, the premier large capitalization index in Canada. Kinross is now the seventh largest primary gold producer in the world with annualized production approaching two million ounces from 12 gold mines located on four continents. Although global in reach, approximately two-thirds of this production is from operations in the United States and Canada, the highest North American percentage of any senior gold producer.”

All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included herein, including without limitation, statements regarding potential mineralization and reserves, exploration results and future plans and objectives of Kinross, are forward-looking statements that involve various risks and uncertainties.
