In Q1 Fiscal 2025, a total of 256,079 tonnes of ore were mined at the Ying Mining District, up 20% over Q1 Fiscal 2024, and 221,242 tonnes of ore were milled, up 6% over Q1 Fiscal 2024. Approximately 1,146 ounces of gold, 1.6 million ounces of silver, (or 1.7 million ounces of silver equivalent), 14.1 million pounds of lead, and 2.5 million pounds of zinc were produced, representing a production increase of 17% in zinc and decreases of 26%, 2%, 4%, and 8%, respectively, in gold, silver, silver equivalent, and lead over Q1 Fiscal 2024. Ore head grades were in line with the Company's Fiscal 2025 annual guidance. The decrease of silver, gold and lead is mainly due to i) lower head grades realized as per the current mine plan and ii) a total of 59,293 tonnes of stockpile ores not yet processed. The Company expects that the stockpiled ore will be processed in the third and fourth quarter, once the No. 2 mill capacity expansion of 1,500 tonnes per day is achieved in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025.

At the GC Mine, 87,768 tonnes of ore were mined, down 2% over Q1 Fiscal 2024, and 86,454 tonnes of ore were milled, effectively the same compared to Q1 Fiscal 2024. Approximately 145 thousand ounces of silver, 1.5 million pounds of lead, and 4.0 million pounds of zinc were produced, representing decreases of 21%, 37% and 16%, respectively, in silver, lead and zinc over Q1 Fiscal 2024. The decrease in metal production was mainly due to lower head grades achieved and less ore processed.
