Orla Mining Ltd. Files Preliminary Economic Assessment Technical Report on Camino Rojo Project

12.07.2018  |  Newsfile
Vancouver, July 12, 2018 - Orla Mining Ltd. (TSXV: OLA) ("Orla" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has filed a technical report, prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101, for its 100% owned Camino Rojo Project located in Zacatecas State, Mexico. Orla previously released the results of the preliminary economic assessment ("PEA") in its May 29, 2018 news release which included a summary of all assumptions and key results contained in the technical report.

The independent report dated June 19, 2018, entitled "Preliminary Economic Assessment, NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Camino Rojo Gold Project — Municipality of Mazapil, Zacatecas, Mexico" was completed by Kappes, Cassiday & Associates ("KCA") and provides details and supporting disclosure to the information contained in the Company's news release issued on May 29, 2018. The technical report is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

PEA Summary

The mineral resource at Camino Rojo and PEA support a technically simple open-pit mine and heap-leach operation that offers low capital and operating costs, rapid payback, and strong financial performance. The PEA is based on near-surface oxide and partly oxidized (transitional) material within the overall resource, all located within Orla mineral concessions. Key highlights are summarized in the table below:

PEA Highlights Base Case (in USD)
Pre -Tax - Net Present Value (5%) / Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") $231 million / 38.1%
After-Tax - Net Present Value (5%) / IRR $121 million / 24.5%
Payback 3.3 years
Production Rate per Day 18,000 tonnes
Total Material to Leach Pad 42.5M tonnes
Average Grade Au / Ag (g/t) 0.71 / 13.56
Contained gold / silver ounces 966,000 / 18,517,000
Average Recovery Au / Ag 67% / 15%
Average Annual gold Production 97,500 ounces
Strip Ratio 0.58
Initial Capex $125 million
Avg. LOM production costs (per tonne of material processed) $8.02
Total By-Product Cash Cost1 ($/oz Au) $499
All-In Sustaining Cost1 ($/oz Au) $555
Gold Price (US$/oz) $1,250
Silver Price (US$/oz) $17.00

The PEA is preliminary in nature and includes the use of inferred mineral resources, which are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves and there is no certainty that PEA results will be realized. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts which address events, results, outcomes or developments that the Company expects to occur. Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made and they involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Certain material assumptions regarding such forward-looking statements are discussed in this news release, including without limitation, assumptions regarding the price of gold and silver; the accuracy of mineral resource estimations; that there will be no material adverse change affecting the Company or its properties; that all required permits and approvals will be obtained; that no social or environmental issues exist; and that there will be no significant disruptions affecting the Company or its properties.

1 Non-IFRS Measures

The Company has included certain non-IFRS performance measures as detailed below. In the gold mining industry, these are common performance measures but may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and the non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Cash Costs per Ounce — the Company calculated cash costs per ounce by dividing the sum of operating costs, royalty costs, production taxes, refining and shipping costs, net of by-product silver credits, by payable gold ounces. While there is no standardized meaning of the measure across the industry, the Company believes that this measure will be useful to external users in assessing operating performance.

All-In Sustaining Costs ("AISC") — the Company has disclosed an AISC performance measure that reflects all of the expenditures that are required to produce an ounce of gold from operations. While there is no standardized meaning of the measure across the industry, the Company's definition conforms to the all-in sustaining cost definition as set out by the World Gold Council in its guidance dated June 27, 2013. The Company believes that this measure will be useful to external users in assessing operating performance and the ability to generate free cash flow from current operations.
