Q4 Full Year Full Year 2019
Guidance
2018 2019 2018 2019
Gold 29,291 36,087 135,124 134,316 131,000-138,000

Rob McEwen, Chairman and Chief Owner commented: “2019 was a year of exploration highs overshadowed by production lows. After issuing two disappointing reductions in production guidance we finally achieved our guidance. The problems that plagued us in 2019 were largely unique events that will not be reoccurring. Exploration will continue to be a key focus at Stock West, Grey Fox, Black Fox and Gold Bar, where we see the potential to create the greatest near-term value.”

San José Mine, Santa Cruz, Argentina (49%(2))

San José exceeded the full year guidance for 2019 of 49,000 gold ounces and 3,225,000 silver ounces. Our attributable production from San José in 2019 was 51,684 gold ounces and 3,354,487 silver ounces, for a total of 91,654 GEOs.

El Gallo Project, Sinaloa, Mexico (100%)

El Gallo delivered on guidance by producing 16,333 GEOs in 2019 from residual leaching of the heap leach pad.

Gold Bar Mine, Nevada (100%)

Gold Bar produced 30,712 GEOs in 2019, within our revised full year production guidance of 30,000 to 33,000 GEOs. In Q4, production was 9,713 GEOs. Throughput at the crushing plant slowed in Q4 with the onset of winter, and we expect that to persist through Q1 2020.

Black Fox Mine, Timmins, Canada (100%)

Black Fox produced 35,721 GEOs in 2019, close to our revised full year production guidance of 36,000 to 40,000 GEOs. In Q4, production was 9,887 GEOs.
