In the first quarter of 2013, 122,600 tonnes were processed at the plant at an average head grade of 1.24 g/t Au. Production totalled 4,800 ounces of gold at a total cash cost per ounce sold of $907.

Cash flow used for investments of $348,000 in property, plant and equipment in the first quarter of 2013 included: exploration expenditures of $50,000 as well as sustainable capital expenditures of $298,000. In the first three months of 2012, liquidities of $2,958,000 were invested in exploration expenditures.

Kiniero is a non-core asset and we continue to review the strategic alternatives for this property. In the meantime, the project is under ongoing review in order to remain cash flow positive.
