---------------------------------------------
Mineral Reserves
Proven and Probable mineral reserves at Mulatos decreased 14% to 2.03 million ounces at December 31, 2013 reflecting the use of a more conservative gold price assumption of $1,250 per ounce in estimating the 2013 mineral reserves, compared to $1,400 in 2012, depletion and higher operating cost assumptions. Although ounces decreased, grades increased 8% to 1.15 g/t Au, consistent with a smaller but higher quality mineral reserve. The improvement in grade was driven by a 43% increase in the underground grade at San Carlos. A detailed summary of Proven and Probable mineral reserves for the Mulatos Mine as of December 31, 2013 is presented in Table 1 at the end of this press release.
Open Pit Mineral Reserves
The grade of the Mulatos Mine open pit, which is the source of the heap leach production, increased 3% to 0.93 g/t Au. Adjusting to remove the Escondida High Grade Zone open pit ore from the 2012 reserve, which is now virtually depleted, the 2013 Mulatos Mine open pit grade of 0.93 g/t Au represents a 7% increase compared to 2012, and a 9% increase relative to the Company’s budgeted heap leach grade of 0.85 g/t Au in 2014. The mineral reserve estimates for the Cerro Pelon and La Yaqui satellite deposits are unchanged from prior years and remain based on an $800 per ounce gold price. The higher grade nature of these two deposits of 1.6 g/t Au highlights the potential for low cost production growth from these projects starting in 2016.
Underground Mineral Reserves
A successful exploration program at San Carlos resulted in an 18% or 32,000 ounce increase in high grade underground Proven and Probable mineral reserves to now total 209,500 ounces and a 43% increase in grade. San Carlos represents the primary source of high grade mill feed for the next four years, based on current throughput rates. The mineral reserve grade of 7.02 g/t Au represents a significant improvement from the previous mineral reserve grade of 4.92 g/t Au and the 5.3 g/t Au budgeted for high grade mill feed in 2014. In addition to the positive mineral reserve growth at San Carlos, Measured and Indicated mineral resources nearly doubled to 123,800 ounces, with the grade increasing to 6.16 g/t Au. The Company expects that with additional drilling, there is an opportunity to upgrade these mineral resources to mineral reserves.
The success at San Carlos was the product of an aggressive exploration program in 2013 following up on high-grade mineralization along trend of the Northeast Extension. This area remains open for further delineation at depth and along strike, with ongoing drilling focused on adding new mineral resources and the conversion of existing mineral resources to mineral reserves. Including underground definition drilling, the Company has budgeted $13.3 million for exploration at Mulatos in 2014 with a significant portion being allocated to San Carlos.
Based on the 2014 budgeted average throughput rate at the Mulatos Mine of 17,000 tonnes per day (“tpd”) and a projected 700 tpd rate for the high grade mill, the remaining mineral reserve life of the Mulatos Mine is approximately eight years as of December 31, 2013. The life-of-mine waste-to-ore ratios as of December 31, 2013 for the Mulatos Mine and nearby satellite deposits are summarized in Table 2 at the end of this press release.
Mineral Resources
Globally, the Company’s Measured and Indicated mineral resources, which are reported exclusive of mineral reserves, are 6.67 million ounces at various cut-off grades, as of December 31, 2013. This represents a 31% increase in ounces and 24% increase in ounces per share from 2012, reflecting the acquisition of Esperanza in 2013.
Inferred mineral resources as of December 31, 2013 of 3.68 million ounces increased 142% relative to 2012 and 129% on a per share basis reflecting the accretive acquisitions of Esperanza and Orsa Ventures. In 2013, the Company applied a $1,400 per ounce gold price assumption for Mulatos and the Company’s Turkish projects, which reflected a decrease from $1,500 in 2012. Detailed summaries of the Company’s Global Measured and Indicated, and Inferred mineral resources as of December 31, 2013 are presented in Tables 3 and 4, respectively, at the end of this press release.
Mulatos Mine (Mexico)
Measured and Indicated mineral resources at the Mulatos Mine and its satellite deposits decreased 5% to 2.52 million ounces while, consistent with mineral reserves, grades increased 5% compared to the prior year. Inferred mineral resources decreased to 321,000 ounces, as of December 31, 2013, while grades increased 5%. The mineral resources are reported at a 0.5 g/t Au cut-off at Mulatos, at a 2.5 g/t Au cut-off for underground resources, and at a 0.3 g/t Au cut-off at the El Realito and Carricito areas. The change in Measured, Indicated, and Inferred mineral resources is primarily attributable to the conversion of mineral resources into Proven and Probable mineral reserves in addition to the use of a more conservative gold price assumption. Partially offsetting the decrease in Measured and Indicated mineral resources at Mulatos was the delineation of new resources through infill drilling and extension drilling at San Carlos, with a 96% increase in the underground resource to 123,800 ounces and a 35% increase in grade to 6.16 g/t (refer to Tables 7 and 8).
Detailed summaries of Measured and Indicated mineral resources and Inferred mineral resources for Mulatos are presented in Tables 5 and 6, respectively, at the end of this press release.
Agi Dagi, Kirazli, and Camyurt (Turkey)
Measured and Indicated mineral resources at Agi Dagi, Kirazli and Camyurt, which are reported at a 0.2 g/t Au cut-off, increased nearly 0.5 million ounces of gold, or 20%, to 2.92 million ounces of gold and 24.1 million ounces of silver, as compared to the mineral resources reported as at December 31, 2012. The key contributor to this increase was the successful upgrading of 0.51 million ounces of Inferred mineral resources at the Camyurt deposit into the Measured and Indicated categories while also improving the combined grade by nearly 8%. Given its proximity to Agi Dagi, this conversion of ounces is expected to enhance the economics of Agi Dagi as outlined in the 2012 pre-feasibility study. Since acquiring the projects in 2010, the Company has grown the Measured and Indicated mineral resource by 126%.
Inferred mineral resources at Agi Dagi, Kirazli and Camyurt decreased to 0.40 million ounces at year-end 2013, primarily reflecting the upgrade of the Inferred mineral resource at Camyurt.
Detailed summaries of the Measured and Indicated, and Inferred mineral resources for Agi Dagi are presented in Tables 9 and 10. The Measured and Indicated, and Inferred mineral resources for Kirazli are presented in Tables 11 and 12. Measured and Indicated, and Inferred mineral resources for Camyurt are presented in Tables 13 and 14.
Esperanza Gold Project (Mexico)
Measured and Indicated mineral resources at the Esperanza Gold Project, which are reported at a 0.4 g/t Au cut-off grade total 1.24 million ounces of gold and 10.6 million ounces of silver as at March 1, 2014. Upon completion of the acquisition of Esperanza in August 2013, the Company undertook a complete remodeling of the deposit and adopted a more conservative approach to the mineral resource estimation resulting in a decline relative to the 2012 mineral resource estimate. Inferred mineral resources at the Esperanza Gold project contained 0.11 million ounces of gold and 1.12 million ounces of silver as at March 1, 2014.
Detailed summaries of the Measured and Indicated, and Inferred mineral resources for Esperanza Gold project are presented in Tables 15 and 16, respectively, at the end of this press release.
Quartz Mountain Property (USA)
Inferred mineral resources at the Quartz Mountain Property, which are reported at a 0.21 g/t Au cut-off for oxide and 0.58 g/t Au for sulphide, contained 2.85 million ounces at year-end 2013. This includes oxide mineral resources of 1.30 million ounces and sulphide mineral resources of 1.55 million ounces. Quartz Mountain was acquired as part of the acquisition of Orsa Ventures Corp. completed in September 2013.
A detailed summary of the Inferred mineral resources for Quartz Mountain are presented in Table 17.

Notes for Tables 3 & 4:
(1) The updated mineral resource estimate at Mulatos incorporates the
Estrella, Escondida, Puerto del Aire, El Salto, Mina Vieja, El Victor,
and San Carlos areas.
(2) In-pit measured and indicated mineral resource blocks are exclusive of
pit-contained reserves.
(3) Measured and indicated and inferred mineral resources outside of the
Mulatos Mine have no economic restrictions and are tabulated by gold
cut-off grade.
(4) Measured and indicated and inferred resources at Carricito and El
Realito are pit-constrained, applying a $1,400/oz gold price, 55
degrees pit slopes, and a $2.52/t mining cost, $9.11/t process + G&A
cost.
(5) Measured and indicated and inferred resources for the Agi Dagi
project, which includes the Baba, Ayitepe, Deli, and Fire Tower zones,
are pit constrained with cut-off determined as a net of process value
of $0.10 per tonne, for each model block. The determination was based
on a US$1,400 per ounce gold price and a US$24.00 per ounce silver
price, a December 31, 2013 resource model, pit slope angles ranging
from 40 degrees to 48 degrees, and estimated costs and recoveries
based on the pre-feasibility study specifications. The resources were
then tabulated by gold cut-off grade.
(6) Measured and indicated, and inferred resources for the Kirazli
project, including Rockpile, are pit constrained with cut-off
determined as a net of process value of $0.10 per tonne, for each
model block. The determination was based on a US$1,400 per ounce gold
price and a US$24.00 per ounce silver price, a December 31, 2013
resource model, pit slope angles ranging from 38 degrees to 48
degrees, and estimated costs and recoveries based on the pre-
feasibility study specifications. The resources were then tabulated by
gold cut-off grade.
(7) Measured and indicated and inferred resources for the Camyurt project
are pit-constrained with cut-off determined as a net of process value
of $0.10 per tonne, for each model block. The determination was based
on a $1,400 per ounce gold price and a $24/oz silver price, a December
31, 2013 resource model, average pit slope angle of 45 degrees, and
estimated costs and recoveries based on the pre-feasibility study
specifications. The resources were then tabulated by gold cut-off
grade.

constrained, using a $1,500 per ounce gold price and a $30 per ounce
silver price, an average pit slope angle of 45 degrees, estimated
costs of $2.50/t mining, $3.00/t processing in oxide and $17,50/t
processing in sulphide, and oxide recoveries of 65% for gold and 10%
for silver, and sulphide recoveries of 80% for gold and 30% for silver
