January Mining

In January, the Company continued to see operational improvements at the Elk Gold Project, delivering 6,179 tonnes of ore at a head-grade of 6.04 g/t Au and 6.15 g/t Ag to New Gold Inc.'s New Afton mine. This translated to Gold Mountain shipping 1,164 gold ounces and 1,183 silver ounces, generating approximately CAD$2.3M (US$1.7M USD) of revenue and an adjusted EBITDA of approximately $725k. The Company attributes the success in January to improvements made in drill & blast design and ore control processes.

The Company will continue refining its ore control practices as it progresses into the next phases of the mine plan. February tonnages delivered to New Afton were impacted by weather conditions, although production samples received to date continue to show improvements to the mine's head grade.
