Paul Benson, President and CEO said, “We produced over 78,000 gold equivalent ounces with all three operations performing well during the quarter. Seabee had a standout quarter, with the lowest cash costs since we acquired the operation in 2016 and record mill throughput of more than 1,030 tonnes per day. With development at Chinchillas remaining on track for delivery in the second half of the year, and production at Seabee and Marigold ramping up through the year, our operating and financial performance positions us well for growth in 2018 and 2019.”

“We realized strong improvements in our cost profile during the first quarter, with an AISC of $11.76 excluding non-cash items,” stated Brendan Cahill, President and CEO. “More importantly, during March we realized an AISC of $7, or negative $0.90 excluding non-cash items. We expect costs to continue to improve now that we have transitioned to a more productive cut-and-fill mining method. Additionally, with key ramps now accelerated well below production levels, we have a growing dry mineral inventory of over 50,000 tonnes available to continue increasing production in Q2 and Q3.”
