Great Panther Silver Reports Fiscal Year 2018 Financial Results

“2018 was a year of significant strategic advancement for Great Panther against the backdrop of a challenging metal price environment,” stated James Bannantine, President and CEO. “Significantly lower silver prices and higher costs driven by geology at our Guanajuato Mine in the third quarter reduced mine operating earnings year-over-year. Furthermore, we continued to fully expense the advancement of our Coricancha project in Peru. These factors were the primary contributors to our loss this year. With regard to our costs in Mexico, we took quick action to implement cost reduction and restructuring measures and started to realize cost reductions in the fourth quarter. We also invested significantly in corporate development, which culminated in a transformational deal to acquire Beadell Resources Limited that will formally close in early March. As a result of these initiatives, 2019 will represent a historic year of change for Great Panther that will see the Company become a growth-oriented intermediate precious metals producer in Latin America.”

Southern Silver Intersects 2.0m averaging 409g/t Ag, 0.9% Cu, 0.8% Pb and 8.4% Zn (871g/t AgEq; 24.6% ZnEq) in Drilling at Cerro Las Minitas

The identification of such enriched silver and pathfinder metals in this initial phase of wide-spread drill testing on the CLM West claims may be significant in suggesting a potential proximity to much more precious-metal enriched (Ag-Au) deposits. Similar pathfinder-ore relationships are identified on the adjacent La Preciosa and Avino mineral systems and are described in classic models of vein and breccia epithermal systems.

Sable Intersects 297.7g/t AgEq (283g/t Ag, 0.78% Zn, 0.32% Pb) over 33.3m including 702.13g/t AgEq (579g/t Ag, 1.67% Zn, 0.76% Pb) over 9.9m
