million) with a 1.53-year payback (1.82 year after-tax) of invested capital using a US$2,500 per ounce
gold price.
• Based on price sensitivity analysis at approximately the current price of US$4,000 per ounce of gold,
the project returns a pre -tax IRR of 134.2% (after -tax 104.2%) and a pre -tax NPV at a 5% discount
rate of US$1.055 billion (after-tax US$744.4 million).
• Base Case mine life of 10 years with total production of 597,841 ounces, averaging approximately
60,000 ounces per year.
• Crushed mineralized material will be conveyor stacked at a rate of approximately 10,000 tonnes/day
on a conventional heap leach pad.
• Capex: US$89,997,000 (including US$15.4 million contingency).
• Low LOM Strip Ratio of 2.05

Technical Information and Cautionary Note Regarding Inferred Mineral Resources
The mine plan evaluated in the PEA is preliminary in nature and includes Inferred Mineral Resources, as defined
by NI 43-101 that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to
them that would enable them to be c onverted to Mineral Reserves. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral
Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Additional drilling and technical studies will need to be
completed in order to fully assess its viability. There is no certainty tha t a production decision will be made to
develop the Mexican Hat Project or that the economic results described in the PEA will be realized. Mine
design and mining schedules, metallurgical flow sheets and process plant designs will require additional detailed
work and economic analysis and internal studies to ensure satisfactory operational conditions and decisions
regarding future targeted production. Key assumptions, qualifications and estimates to the results of the PEA
are contained in the PEA.
Dr. D.R. Webb, Ph.D., P.Geo., P.Eng. is the Q.P. for this release within the meaning of NI 43 -101 and has
reviewed the technical content of this release and has approved its content.
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
