Second Quarter 2013 Preliminary Operating Results

San Gold produced 22,476 ounces of gold in the second quarter, bringing total production for the first six months of the year to 39,830 ounces. The operation mined 173,350 tons of ore at an average daily rate of 1,905 tons per day and milled 162,344 tons in the quarter at an average daily throughput of 1,765 tons per day. Mill recovery was 94.0% and milled grade was 5.05 grams per tonne. The company ended the quarter with approximately 11,000 tons in a low grade stockpile in addition to a blended stockpile of approximately 4,200 tons.

During the second quarter, the Company implemented a number of operational changes and cost cutting initiatives in response to adverse market conditions. Specifically the company has changed the mining mix with a continued strong reliance on the 007 mine and an increase of mining in the Rice Lake mine with less dependence on the Hinge mine. Beginning in June 2013 the company began to stockpile lower grade ore on a surface stockpile and has deferred mining some lower grade material throughout the operation pending an improvement in the price of gold.

"I am extremely pleased with the progress we have made in the last quarter. We exceeded our expectations for gold production, improved grade and curtailed unnecessary spending. The company has now accessed the 007 ore zones from 26 Level in the Rice Lake mine which is providing a supplemental ore feed for the mill. We have cancelled or deferred non-critical capital expenditures and San Gold has taken over responsibility from the contractor for capital development in the 007 mine. 16 Level in Rice Lake remains a top development priority, with the mining contractor pushing the lateral development out to intersect the down-dip extensions of both the Hinge and 007 mines," said Ian Berzins, San Gold's President, CEO and Chief Operating Officer.

The Company remains on track to produce between 75,000 and 90,000 ounces of gold in 2013 with cash costs between $800 and $900 per ounce.
