via NewMediaWire -- Gold Resource Corporation (NYSE American:
GORO) (the “Company”)
reports
preliminary consolidated record gold production results for the
third quarter ended September 30, 2020 of 12,575 gold ounces,
333,761 silver ounces and significant base metals. Nevada
gold production increased by 51% as the production ramp up phase
continues. Gold Resource Corporation is a gold and silver
producer, developer and explorer with operations in Oaxaca, Mexico
and Nevada, USA. The Company has returned $115 million to its
shareholders in consecutive monthly dividends since July 2010 and
offers its shareholders the option to convert their cash dividends
into physical gold and silver and take delivery.
Preliminary record third quarter production from the Company’s
Nevada Mining Unit totaled 7,847 gold ounces, a gold production
increase of 51% over the prior quarter. Through the first
three quarters of 2020, the Company’s Nevada Mining Unit’s
preliminary production numbers total 16,747 gold ounces. The
third quarter was the first full quarter that the Company was able
to regularly access portions of the deposit’s high-grade “Pearl”
zone, while also mining the deposit’s lower grade “Isabella”
zone. The Pearl zone is estimated to contain 80% of the gold
ounces at the Isabella Pearl deposit with an estimated average gold
grade of 4.0 grams per tonne. Gold Resource Corporation
remains on track with ramp up into the fourth quarter, positioning
the Company to achieve its annual production target of 40,000 gold
ounce in 2021.
Preliminary third quarter production from the
Company’s Oaxaca Mining Unit totaled 4,728 gold ounces, 324,592
silver ounces, 428 copper tonnes, 2,157 lead tonnes and 5,538 zinc
tonnes, which represents increases of 94%, 75%, 74%, 89% and 84%,
respectively, for each metal over the prior quarter. Through
the first three quarters of 2020, the Company’s Oaxaca Mining
Unit’s preliminary production numbers total 13,619 gold ounces,
912,464 silver ounces, 1,162 copper tonnes, 5,811 lead tonnes and
14,386 zinc tonnes.
The Company previously withdrew its 2020
production outlook for both its Oaxaca and Nevada Mining Units
following the impacts and uncertainties of the global pandemic, the
two-month mandatory governmental suspension of Mexican operations
in April 2020, and uncertainty of potential future outbreaks or
governmental responses to the pandemic. Both mining units
operated continuously during the third quarter along with continued
health screening protocols for COVID 19 prevention and
mitigation. During the third quarter Nevada identified one
positive case of COVID while Mexico identified 29 positive
cases. Full financial results for the third quarter will be
available at the time the Company files its quarterly report on
Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
