“New Gold moved from strength to strength during the third quarter,” stated Randall Oliphant, Executive Chairman. “Our gold production increased significantly, our costs decreased and we further strengthened our balance sheet. When including the cash proceeds from the El Morro transaction and the remaining stream deposit from Royal Gold, our company has total pro forma liquidity of over $750 million which exceeds the remaining development capital estimate at Rainy River. In addition, with quarterly all-in sustaining costs below $800 per ounce we continued to generate a robust margin. We now look forward to finishing the year with another strong operational quarter and further advancing the construction of Rainy River.”

“In the third quarter of 2015, we set a new record for quarterly gold production and lowered unit costs which resulted in strong operating cash flow. This has allowed us to continue to invest in our exploration and development pipeline, which represents the long-term future of our business,” said Sean Boyd, Agnico Eagle’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our increased level of exploration activity continues to pay dividends as witnessed by the new discoveries at Kittila, Amaruq and El Barqueno. These projects are expected to be significant contributors to our production profile in the coming years,” added Mr. Boyd.

Chris Herald, President and CEO, stated, “We want to remain flexible in our approach – we will focus on gold, silver and zinc, but will not rule out other metals or corporate opportunities. Our targeted geographic range will be the safe jurisdictions in the Americas, but with an emphasis in Peru, Mexico, Canada and the U.S. We plan to focus on relatively early-stage exploration projects that have some drilling and potentially a defined resource, but we will also look at select greenfield projects and/or advanced exploration projects where our feasibility and permitting experience may be beneficial. We will continue to evaluate royalty opportunities on advanced projects, but we believe current royalty acquisition costs in the industry are generally fully valued and do not offer the opportunity for multiple returns on investment.”

Yamana’s Executive Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer Charles Main provided comments on the Transaction as follows: “We are very pleased to have completed this transaction. The streams that we have put in place do not have significant impacts on the projects to which they relate. They represent a modest portion of our copper and silver production which are secondary metals to Yamana and they do not impact our exposure to our primary metal which is gold. With this deal, and with the successful completion of a deal on Brio Gold, the goal and expectation is to be in a position to have generated cash proceeds well in excess of the amount required to complete the pay down of our credit facility prior to year end, which was one of our strategic objectives for the year…”
