“We accomplished or advanced several strategic priorities during the quarter that are critical to achieving our full-year and longer-term objectives,” said Mitchell J. Krebs, Coeur’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our stepped-up exploration programs targeting higher-grade mineralization at Palmarejo and Kensington are yielding positive results, we significantly strengthened our balance sheet, the development of Jualin remains on-track to commence production later in the year, and we have now begun to stack ore on the new Stage IV leach pad at Rochester.

“With the disposal of non-core assets and the acquisition of the Maricunga district joint venture with Barrick during the first half of 2017, the Company has seen a net increase in its gold reserves from 42 million to 50 million ounces,” said Paul Harbidge, Senior Vice President, Exploration. “With an enviable portfolio of brownfield exploration opportunities within our key mining districts and good progress on our exploration programs, we are maintaining our five year 20% gold reserve growth target, which would now see gold reserves increase to 60 million ounces by 2021, up from the previous target of 50 million ounces.”

Bahman Yamini, President and CEO of Canasil, commented: “The spin-out of the British Columbia properties to create a new publicly listed Company is intended to be beneficial for our shareholders by recognizing unrealized value in our BC projects. We believe there is significant potential value in the Company’s large BC land holdings which are located in strategic locations with excellent access and infrastructure. Two of the projects are close to past producing mines and major deposits, and exploration work to date indicates they are particularly prospective for hosting Copper-Gold porphyry mineralization with multiple targets. We anticipate that this transaction will also allow greater access to funding for more active exploration to advance these projects without diluting the Company’s interests in its Mexican project portfolio.
