  2. Includes 2,439 gold ounces reported as sale of mineralized material, and credited to the carrying value of Fire Creek Project.

Paul Andre Huet, Klondex President and CEO commented, "These second quarter results from Fire Creek and Midas demonstrate the systematic growth taking place at our operations. The average daily mining rate increased to 722 tons per day ("tpd") in 2Q2015, up from 601 tpd in 2Q2014, which we attribute to the additional development and mining faces at both operations. In 2Q2015, our gold equivalent ounces ("GEOs") sold increased to 34,188 ounces, up from 25,605 GEO's in 2Q2014."

Mr. Huet continued, "We also made significant progress on the permitting front with both Fire Creek and Midas receiving essential permits. At Fire Creek, our cap on tonnage processed was removed after receiving the Water Pollution Control Permit. Subsequent to the quarter-end at Midas, we received our tailings expansion permit, and construction of the new lift at the tailings facility is already underway."

He continued, "After a strong first half of the year, we are increasing our 2015 production guidance to 125,000-130,000 GEOs from 120,000-125,000 GEOs."

Klondex will report its financial results for the second quarter 2015 in the week of August 10, 2015, followed shortly by a conference call.

Cautionary Note Regarding Technical Information and Forward-looking Information
A production decision at the Midas mine was made by prior owners of the mine, prior to the completion of the acquisition of the Midas mine by Klondex. To the knowledge of Klondex, this production decision was not based on a feasibility study of mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 but was based on internal studies conducted by the prior owner of the mine. Klondex has no reason to believe that the data on which such studies were based or that the results of such studies are unreliable. However, readers are cautioned that there is increased uncertainty and higher risk of economic and technical failure associated with such production decisions.
