OVERVIEW

• -Gold production from the Songjiagou Gold Mine was 5,064 ounces for the three months ended December 31, 2014, compared to 4,843 ounces produced for the comparative period;

  -Tonnes of ore milled was 431,686 tonnes for the three months ended December 31, 2014, with an average head grade of 0.42 g/t, compared to 418,629 tonnes milled, with an average head grade of 0.41 g/t, for the comparative period;

  -Gold sales revenue was $6.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, from the sale of 5,466 ounces, at an average realized gold price of $1,237 per ounce, compared to gold sales revenue of $3.7 million from the sale of 2,894 ounces, at an average realized gold price of $1,263 per ounce, for the comparative period. The increase in gold revenue in the current period was due to the additional 2,572 ounces sold over the comparative period;

The increase in cash costs in the current period, over the comparative period, is due primarily to increased waste removal costs incurred as the Company implements its strict grade control program. The Company expects the grade control program will allow for continued improvement in the average head grade during 2015, thereby lowering the average cash cost per ounce;

  -G&A expenses were $753,718 for three months ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of 73%, compared to $2,773,511 of G&A expenses for the comparative period. The decrease reflects the positive impact of the Company's efforts of spending reductions implemented in fiscal 2014. In fiscal 2015, the Company will benefit from the impact of a full year of the 2014 cost reductions.
