Wesdome Announces 2020 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Financial Results

TORONTO, March 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX: WDO) (“Wesdome” or the “Company”)

(“Q4 2020”) and full year 2020 financial results.   The Company’s full consolidated financial statements and management

discussion & analysis are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company’s website at www.wesdome.com. All

figures are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

Key highlights of 2020:

• Production of 90,278 ounces.

• Company free cash flow 1 generation of $29.0 million, net of investing $40.5 million into the Kiena Complex,

an increase of 332% over 2019.

• Net income increased by 24% from 2019 and adjusted net income 1 increased by 31% from 2019.

• Operating cash flow increased by 44% from 2019.

• Increased Eagle River Reserves by 5% net of 93,132 ounces of depletion.

• Increased Eagle River inferred Resources by 22%.

• Kiena Mine Complex Mineral Resources total 796,000 ounces of indicated and 656,000 ounces inferred.

• Inferred Resources in the Kiena Deep A Zones of 120,400 ounces.

• Processed a portion of the bulk sample from Kiena generating $3.6 million.

1. Refer to the Company’s 2020 Annual Management Discussion and Analysis on pages 28 – 35, entitled “Non-IFRS

Performance Measures” for the reconciliation of these non-IFRS measurements to the financial statements.

Mr. Duncan Middlemiss, President and CEO commented, “2020 was a unique, and at times challenging year as we were

faced with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. First and foremost, I am very pleased to report that none of our sites or offices

had any reported cases of the COVID-19 virus. Despite having to operate both sites at reduced capacities in order to protect

our employees, we were able to achieve a number of important milestones this year, such as achieving our production

guidance at Eagle River, increasing free cash flow by $22.3 million over 2019, and advancing the Kiena Complex through to

mining and milling of a bulk sample.

Loss of operational efficiencies due to the evolving pandemic did have an impact on costs, and the volume of diamond drilling.

Both operating and AISC costs came in higher than guidance as a result of these measures and the inherent inefficiencies of

social distancing in underground operations. We have taken the continuing pandemic into account when forecasting our 2021

cost guidance. Production guidance for the year is 92,000 – 105,000 ounces with grades expecting to average between 13.0

and 15.0 g/t.

At the Eagle River mine, we completed 50,000 metres of drilling, replaced 93,132 ounces of depletion, and added an additional

30,000 ounces. As well, we increased the inferred resources by 22%, while slightly increasing grade to 12.5 g/t. Current

mineral reserves at Eagle River as of December 31, 2020 are 581,000 ounces of gold from 1.4 Mt at an overall grade of 13.4 g/t

Au; as compared to the mineral reserves as of December 31, 2019 of 1.2 Mt at a grade of 14.4 g/t Au containing 550,000

ounces of gold. In 2021, we plan to conduct significantly more drilling with metres budgeted to range between 164,000 and

174,000 metres. This is split out as 60,000 – 70,000 metres of underground exploration drilling, 50,000 metres of underground

definition drilling, and 54,000 metres of surface drilling. The exploration drilling will focus on the 300 E Zone, Falcon 7 Zone and

west of 7 Zone, and east of currently mined areas in the central area of the mine diorite.

At Kiena, while we were not able to generate the planned volume of drilling due to the Quebec government mandated shut

down of operations and the ongoing effects of regional quarantines, we were still able to convert a large portion of A Zone

inferred resources to indicated ounces, which has been used as the basis for our PFS, on track to be published in Q2 2021.

We expect to be in a position to make a restart decision shortly thereafter which would set us on a path in a short timeframe

to Wesdome realizing a second producing asset. We expect to have our final reconciliation of the bulk sample in the near term

and early indications are very positive in terms of grades and tonnes. We are also guiding first production for the Kiena mine

this year of 15,000 – 25,000 ounces.”

EXPLORATION HIGHLIGHTS

Production and

Exploration Highlights

Achievements

Eagle River

• Ongoing extension and definition drilling of the 300 East Zone has continued to return high

grade gold intersections. The 300 East Zone, previously defined from the 750 m-level to 1,000

m-level, has now been extended to the 1,400 m-level. The down plunge extension is a

relatively more tabular zone that now measures in excess of 100 metres along strike with

above average widths and grades, and remains open down plunge.

• In addition, limited drilling has intersected a new zone of mineralization approximately 40 m

north and in the hanging wall of the high grade 300 East zone. Hole 925-E-172 returned 43.1

g/t Au (29.0 g/t Au capped) over 1.5 m true width. This zone remains open down plunge and

along strike and highlights the potential of finding additional sub-parallel zones in this area

and will remain a priority throughout 2021.

• The Company is continuing to develop and explore the 311 West Zone along the western

margin of the mine diorite. The zone has transitioned from the diorite into the adjacent mafic

volcanics, again highlighting the potential of the volcanic rocks to host gold mineralization,

similar to that observed at the neighbouring Falcon 7 zone. The 311 West Zone remains open

up plunge and along strike to the west within the mafic volcanics, and will be a focus of 2021

drilling.

• Total metres drilled in 2021 are budgeted to range between 164,000 and 174,000 m for

five underground and three surface drill rigs, including underground exploration of

60,000 – 70,000 m, underground definition drilling of 50,000m, and surface exploration

drilling 54,000 m.

• The Company was able to replace the depletion of 2020 mined reserves and add 5%

more mineral reserves. Current mineral reserves at Eagle River Complex as of

December 31, 2020 are 591,000 ounces of gold from 1.5 Mt at an overall grade of 12.6

g/t Au; as compared to the mineral reserves as of December 31, 2019 of 1.3 Mt at a

grade of 13.4 g/t Au containing 560,000 ounces of gold.

Kiena

• Over the past year, underground drilling was focused on definition drilling of the A Zone, which

increased the Kiena Deep A Zones Indicated Resources by 77% from 405,100 ounces to

717,400 ounces of gold since 2019, at a similar cut-off grade of 3.0 g/t Au., (see press

release dated December 15, 2020). Drilling has since refocused on expansion drilling, not

only at the A Zone and VC Zone, but at other prospective targets within the mine area. As

part of this exploration focus, initial drilling has already successfully expanded the size of

known mineralized zones, with follow-up drilling expected to contribute to future resource

updates.

• Drilling of the VC1 zone has continued to return a number of high grade intersections and has

now confirmed the previous interpretation that the VC1 zone is a separate structure having a

different orientation than the A Zone. The mineralization of the VC1 zone has transitioned

from a more sulphide-rich variety found in the upper extents of the mine, to a quartz-rich

environment with visible gold present at depth. The VC1 zone extends 475 m down plunge

from 67 Level to 107 Level, where development and drilling are presently being completed.  

The VC1 zone remains open at depth and will be a focus for ongoing drilling.

• Initial sill development was completed on the Kiena Deep A Zone on 111 Level. The

development has confirmed the continuity of the A Zone high grade gold mineralization along

strike. Visible gold is associated with folded quartz veins which are located within an overall

zone of strong amphibole alteration. The mill was restarted to process the A zone bulk

sample in December, of which a total of 1,500 ounces of gold have been sold. More gold from

the mill circuit clean-up has been recovered and will be refined later in Q1, followed by the

final reconciliation of the bulk sample, once all the information is available. The Kiena

infrastructure has been well-maintained, and will enable a quick restart once a production

decision is made.

• The Pre-Feasibility Study (“PFS”) is progressing well, and it is expected to be completed in

Q2, with a scheduled re-start decision shortly thereafter. The pre-production timeframe is

forecast to be less than six months, potentially driving the Kiena Mine into commercial

production in Q4 of this year.

• The 2021 exploration program at Kiena consists of 65,000 m of underground drilling and

42,000 m of surface drilling

Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Reserves and Resources

The mineral reserve and resource estimates reported in this news release were prepared in accordance with National

Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) as required by Canadian securities regulatory

authorities. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applies different standards in order to

classify and report mineralization. This news release uses the terms “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred” mineral resources,

as required by NI 43-101. Readers are advised that although such terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities

regulations, the SEC does not recognize such terms. Canadian standards differ significantly from the requirements of the

SEC. Readers are cautioned not to assume that any part or all, of the mineral deposits in these categories constitute or will

ever be converted into mineral reserves. In addition, “inferred” mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their

existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an

inferred mineral resource exists, is economically or legally mineable or will ever be upgraded to a higher category of mineral

resource.
