Kirkland Lake Gold Fiscal 2014 Operating Results: 122,309 Ounces of Gold & Revised Guidance Met

07.05.2014  |  Marketwired

KIRKLAND LAKE, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 7, 2014) - Kirkland Lake Gold Inc. (TSX:KGI)(AIM:KGI) (the "Company"), an operating and exploration gold mining company, announces operational results for the fourth quarter (February, March, April 2014) and fiscal year 2014.

During the fourth quarter, 84,462 tons were produced at a head grade of 0.37 ounces per ton ("opt") and a recovery rate of 96% to produce 29,721 ounces of gold. Average daily ore tonnage during the quarter was 949.

For fiscal year 2014 (ended April 30, 2014) total production was 385,837 tons at a head grade of 0.33 and a recovery rate of 95% to produce 122,309 ounces, meeting the Company's revised guidance of 120,000 - 125,000 ounces. Ounces produced were 34% higher than the previous fiscal year.

Since January 2014 when the new mine strategy was adopted and expansion projects completed, average head grades improved by 27% from 0.31 opt to 0.39 opt. The changes made to the mine plan focussing on a lower tonnage, higher-grade strategy are proving effective. The Company will continue this approach to operations during the current fiscal year 2015, with a focus on mining the highest ratio of South Mine Complex to Main Break stopes since the SMC was discovered (66% SMC, 34% Main Break). As previously announced, the Company expects to increase annual production to between 140,000 - 155,000 ounces.

Mr. Harry Dobson commented, "These full year production numbers are a good result and together with lower costs, more efficient use of labour and the expansion project now being completed, the team are focussed on making the Company profitable in fiscal 2015."
