SAS reports 2015 third quarter results, increases production guidance to 100,000-110,000 oz, and lowers its mine cash cost guidance to US$630-680 per oz
Q3 2015 HIGHLIGHTS
Gold production – Produced 23,317 ounces of gold from Holt and Holloway (10% increase from Q3 2014 for the two mines); and on track to meet the top end of the Company's 2015 production guidance.
Gold sold - Sold 23,621 ounces of gold at an average realized price (1) of US$1,122 per ounce for revenues of $34.8 million (14% increase from Q3 2014).
Total cash cost per ounce of gold sold (1) – US$687 per ounce (20% decrease from Q3 2014). Mine site cash cost of US$591 (1) per ounce for Q3 2015 and US$613 per ounce for year-to-date are 21% and 18% respectively, below the lower end of the Company's mine cash cost guidance of between US$750 and US$800 per ounce.
All-in sustaining cost (AISC) (1) – US$901 per ounce of gold sold (15% or US$159 per ounce decrease from Q3 2014).
Cash margin from operations (1) - $13.6 million ($3.5 million or 34% increase from Q3 2014).
Operating cash flow - $8.7 million or $0.02 per share, after a $5.3 million working capital adjustment for Taylor stockpile inventory, as compared to $8.4 million generated in Q3 2014.
OUTLOOK FOR 2015
As a result of achieving commercial production at the Taylor Mine, the Company has revised its 2015 production guidance for Holt, Holloway, and Taylor to between 100,000 – 110,000 ounces of gold at a revised mine cash costs target of between US$630-US$680 per ounce of gold sold (1).
Throughout 2015, SAS has been focused on bringing Taylor into commercial production and is continuing its cost containment initiative at all of its operations, with the objective of maximizing cash margin from mine operations while exploration programs remain focused on the near-mine targets. SAS is sufficiently funded to achieve its near-term objectives.

Mine Operations and Financial Review
Gold production and sales volume in Q3 2015 were 9% higher than Q3 2014 due to an improvement in ore grade at both Holt and Holloway. Gold sales revenue, despite a US$153 per ounce or 12% decrease in spot gold price, increased by 14% from Q3 2014. For Q3 2015, cash margin from mine operations increased by $3.5 million of 34% from the same period in 2014 primarily due to the strong US dollar relative to the Canadian dollar, which led to the increase in revenue, while mine cash operating costs for the quarter were kept at optimal levels.
Taylor Mine Development
During Q3 2015, the Company completed the transition of phasing out contracting operations for Taylor. In the quarter, the Company added 60 employees and procured $6.2 million of mining equipment with the objective of bringing Taylor to production capacity by the end of 2015. Also in the quarter, the Company substantially finalized all permitting work for the production closure plan, which was accepted by the regulatory agencies in early November 2015. The Company declared commercial production at Taylor on November 5, 2015.
Exploration Programs
Exploration activities during Q3 2015 continued to focus on the near mine targets, specifically exploring for strike and depth extensions of the known mineralized zones and also exploring for potential repetitions and satellite zones situated near the operations. In Q3 2015, SAS drilled a total of 16,500 metres ("m") of surface core and an additional 1,000 m of underground drilling. The majority of surface drilling activities were focused on Phase 2 evaluation of Zone 4 West Extension on the Holt property. At Holloway, surface drilling targeted both the down-dip extension of Blacktop mineralization and near surface mineralization encountered in recent trenching on the Holloway West property. At Taylor, surface drilling continued to target strike and dip extensions of the 1004 and 1003 mineralized lenses, the Shaft zone at depth and explore for mineralization situated in the footwall (north) of the Porcupine Destor Fault Zone ("PDFZ"). The majority of the underground drilling took place on the 925m Level at Holt targeting the Zone 6 extension, and on the 845m Sublevel at Holloway to evaluate the easterly strike potential of Smoke Deep. At Taylor, a select number of underground definition drill holes were extended north to test for mineralization associated with the Porcupine Destor Fault Zone and the1003 lens.
Capital Resources
Net cash flow (1) in Q3 2015 was an outflow of $2.2 million as compared to a cash inflow of $1.4 million in Q3 2014, primarily resulting from increased preproduction activities at Taylor. Working capital at the end of quarter was $12.8 million, an increase of $3.2 million from working capital of $9.6 million at the end of 2014. The Company maintained a cash position of $22.3 million at the end of the quarter and also has a US$10.0 million revolving credit facility available for additional liquidity. In conjunction with the expected cash flows from operations, the Company is well positioned to finance its planned sustaining capital programs and to conduct its planned exploration programs for Q4 2015 and beyond.
