30.10.2019  |  GlobeNewswire
COLORADO SPRINGS, Oct. 29, 2019 - Gold Resource Corp. (NYSE American: GORO) (the “Company” or “GRC”) reported record gold production results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019 of 11,165 ounces of gold. In addition, the Company produced 477,297 ounces of silver, which along with base metal revenue generated $40.1 million in net revenue and $3.0 million, or $0.05 per share, in net income for the quarter. The Company recently increased its 2019 global gold production outlook 42% to 38,400 ounces, as the Isabella Pearl mine in Mineral County, Nevada continues its production ramp up. The Company also maintains its 2019 Oaxaca Mining Unit (“OMU”) silver production outlook of 1.7 million ounces. Gold Resource Corp. is a gold and silver producer, developer and explorer with operations in Oaxaca, Mexico and Nevada, USA. The Company has returned $112 million to its shareholders in consecutive monthly dividends since July 2010 and offers its shareholders the option to convert their cash dividends into physical gold and silver and take delivery.

Overview of Q3 2019 Results

Third quarter OMU production totaled 7,462 ounces of gold, 473,810 ounces of silver, 492 tonnes of copper, 2,459 tonnes of lead and 6,057 tonnes of zinc. Through the first three quarters of 2019, OMU production numbers total 21,881 ounces of gold, 1,304,975 ounces of silver, 1,407 tonnes of copper, 6,916 tonnes of lead and 17,949 tonnes of zinc. Third quarter production from the Company’s Nevada Mining Unit (NMU) totaled 3,703 ounces of gold. Since producing first gold in April 2019, the NMU has produced 5,381 ounces of gold through September 30, 2019.

The Company maintains its 2019 OMU annual outlook, targeting 27,000 gold ounces and 1,700,000 silver ounces. In addition, the Company’s NMU targets 6,000 ounces of gold production for the fourth quarter of 2019. This fourth quarter production target paired with 5,381 gold ounces produced year-to-date, increases the Company’s global 2019 annual gold production outlook to 38,400 ounces.

The Company sold 10,887 precious metal gold equivalent ounces at a total cash cost of $197 per ounce (after by-product credits) at its OMU, benefiting from strong base metal production and sales. OMU average realized metal prices during the quarter included $1,490 per ounce gold and $17.08 per ounce silver*. The Company sold 4,044 gold ounces from its Isabella Pearl mine at an average realized price of $1,481 per gold ounce*. The Company recorded net income of $3.0 million, or $0.05 per share, and paid $0.3 million to its shareholders in dividends, or $0.005 per share during the quarter. Cash and cash equivalents at quarter end totaled $8.8 million.

“Our Oaxaca Mining Unit’s strong operational results, coupled with our continued ramp up of our Isabella Pearl mine, which recently declared commercial production, resulted in record gold production for the third quarter,” stated Mr. Jason Reid, President and CEO of Gold Resource Corp.. “The Company is on a trajectory to increase its future global annual gold production by more than 100 percent. We are also on a trajectory of shifting the Company’s primary revenue distribution to gold with continued excellent exposure to silver and base metals. In addition, we have become a multi-jurisdictional mining company with two producing mining units and a vast property portfolio. These and other positive results enabled the Company’s Board of Directors to increase the monthly instituted dividend 100 percent with last week’s October dividend declaration.”

All production outlook targets include a plus or minus 10 percent range.

*Average realized metal prices include final settlement adjustments for previously unsettled provisional sales. Provisional sales may remain unsettled from one quarter into the next. Realized prices will therefore vary from average spot metal market prices upon final settlement.

  1. Based on actual days the mill operated during the period.
  2. The difference between what we report as "ounces/tonnes produced" and "payable ounces/tonnes sold" is attributable to the difference between the quantities of metals contained in the concentrates we produce versus the portion of those metals actually paid for according to the terms of our sales contracts. Differences can also arise from inventory changes incidental to shipping schedules, or variances in ore grades and recoveries which impact the amount of metals contained in concentrates produced and sold.
