Dundee Precious Metals Announces Preliminary Second Quarter Production Results and Timing of Second Quarter Financial Results

TORONTO, July 08, 2024 - Dundee Precious Metals Inc. (TSX: DPM) ("DPM" or "the Company") today announced preliminary production results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

"We continue to deliver strong, consistent results from our operations, with gold and copper production increasing in the second quarter as planned," said David Rae, President and Chief Executive Officer. "With both mines on track to achieve our 2024 guidance targets, we are well-positioned to continue our strong operating track record."

Production Highlights

Preliminary results for the second quarter and first half of 2024 are provided in the table below:

Operational Highlights

Chelopech produced approximately 43.7 thousand ounces of gold and 7.9 million pounds of copper in the second quarter. Gold production was slightly higher than expected as a result of better recoveries, while copper production was slightly below plan due to lower-than-expected copper grades. As per the mine plan, the Company continues to expect higher grades over the balance of the year, and Chelopech is on-track to achieve its 2024 guidance targets for gold and copper production.

Ada Tepe produced 23.9 thousand ounces of gold in the second quarter, in-line with expectations.

Discontinued Operations

In March 2024, DPM announced that it had entered into a definitive share purchase agreement with a subsidiary of Sinomine Resource Group Co. Ltd. for the sale of its interest in the Tsumeb smelter in Namibia. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2024.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Tsumeb smelter processed approximately 52.9 thousand tonnes of complex concentrate.
