FIRST QUARTER OVERVIEW

• Gold sales revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 was $10.3 million, from the sale of 6,755 ounces, at an average realized gold price of $1,527 per ounce, compared to gold sales revenue of $11.1 million from the sale of 8,612 ounces, at an average realized gold price of $1,281 per ounce, for the 2019 comparative period;
• Net income for the first quarter of 2020 was $2.2 million, compared to $2.2 million for the 2019 comparative period;

• Gold production decreased by 5% to 6,878 ounces for the first quarter of 2020, compared to 7,276 ounces for the 2019 comparative period. The decrease was primarily due to a lower overall head grade achieved at the Songjiagou Gold Mine. The average grade was 0.60 g/t for the current period compared to 0.73 g/t for the comparative period. The Company expects the average grade to improve as higher grade areas become accessible in the open pit; and
• Total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs ("AISC") for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 were $693 per ounce and $819 per ounce, compared to $659 per ounce and $741 per ounce for the comparative period of fiscal 2019.
