"The second quarter of 2022 was very successful for Soma. Higher-grade ore from Cordero, at an average of 7.75 gpt in the second quarter, is starting to replace ore from our legacy, lower-grade mines which has a very positive impact on gold production and financial results." states Javier Cordova, Soma's President and CEO. "As development at Cordero advances, mill throughput at higher-than-average grades will ramp up, allowing the Company to increase tons from the Q2 average of 387 tpd, to over 500 tpd in early 2023, resulting in further growth of gold production."

In addition, the Company has received the first shipment of underground equipment ordered from Sandvik. Mr. Cordova states, "Our ability to self-perform development and mining at the Cordero Mine will significantly impact gold production in Q4 of 2022 and going forward. The balance of the equipment will arrive in the coming months, and once fully implemented, mine production is anticipated to rise by over 250 tpd from current levels."
