Santander Mine, Peru:

Santander produced 11.0 million payable pounds of zinc, 1.2 million payable pounds of lead and 70,046 payable ounces of silver in Q1. Metal sales for the quarter were 11.0 million pounds of zinc, 1.1 million pounds of lead and 67,626 ounces silver, respectively, for revenue of $16.6 million.

During the quarter, the Santander mill averaged 1,674 tonnes per day, which is materially below the 2,000 tonne-per-day design rate. This was due to planned maintenance work on a ball mill, resulting in approximately 25% lower processing capacity. Mining during Q1 was maintained at normal capacity, which resulted in an ore stock pile of approximately 65,000-tonnes at the end of the quarter. The mill maintenance was completed in late March and the mill is currently operating at higher than design capacity (April 2018 mill throughput averaged 2,350 tonnes per day).

Underground production was 187,073 tonnes of ore and average head grades were 4.46% zinc, 0.48% lead and 0.77 oz/ton silver, with production of 12,549 tonnes of zinc concentrate and 1,109 tonnes of lead-silver concentrate. Recoveries averaged 89% for zinc, 79% for lead and 58% for silver. Site cash operating costs were $64.50 per tonne milled, which is materially above the annual cost guidance range of $38-$42 per tonne and reflects lower production due to planned mill maintenance.

Production for the balance of the year is expected to make-up the first quarter shortfall. The 2018 cost guidance remains unchanged at $38-$42 per tonne milled. Unitary costs will fall significantly from the first quarter levels due to increased mill throughput and production (Please refer to non-IFRS Measures in the Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements at the end of this news release and in Trevali’s March 31, 2018 Management’s Discussion and Analysis).

Caribou Mine, Canada:

Production from the Caribou mine was 19.1 million payable pounds of zinc, 7.2 million payable pounds of lead and 216,087 payable ounces of silver. The mine sold 17.8 million pounds of zinc, 6.8 million pounds of lead, and 207,122 ounces of silver for total revenue of $28.1 million.

Mine production was 238,650 tonnes with mill throughput at 235,531 tonnes; recoveries averaged 75% for zinc, 62% for lead, and 41% for silver. Average head grades were 5.9% zinc, 2.4% lead and 2.1 oz/ton of silver, with production of 22,769 tonnes of zinc concentrate and 9,556 tonnes of lead-silver concentrate.

Site operating costs for the Q1 were $64.12 per tonne, reflecting higher costs due to seasonal effects, as experienced in prior years.

Second quarter production from the Caribou operation will range from 23-25% of the full year guidance target for zinc and lead due to the seasonal transition from winter production at the mine. The annual 2018 guidance remains unchanged at $55-$61 per tonne milled with costs expected to trend lower in the second quarter (Please refer to non-IFRS Measures in the Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements at the end of this news release and in Trevali’s March 31, 2018 Management’s Discussion and Analysis).

The 2018 business improvement program anticipates increased production gains and efficiencies as improvements are made to the site power infrastructure, mill control systems, ground control management and ventilation.

Rosh Pinah Mine, Namibia (acquired by Trevali on August 31, 2017):

Q1 production from Rosh Pinah was 22.8 million payable pounds of zinc, 3.9 million payable pounds of lead and 50,794 payable ounces of silver. Sales were 28.1 million pounds of zinc, for total revenue of $33.2 million. Due to limited lead concentrate production at Rosh Pinah, shipments are only scheduled approximately twice per year; there were none during Q1.

Mine production was 172,334 tonnes and mill throughput was 177,837 tonnes, with recoveries averaging 88% for zinc, 77% for lead, and 51% for silver. Average head grades milled were 7.9% zinc, 1.4% lead and 0.6 oz/ton silver, with production of 25,175 tonnes of zinc concentrate and 4,268 tonnes of lead-silver concentrate.

Site cash operating costs per tonne milled were $54.41 and total cash operating costs were $0.90 per payable pound of zinc produced. Costs were marginally higher than the 2018 guidance range of $49 to $54 per tonne due to one-time costs associated with negotiating a three year labour agreement and no by-product lead or silver sales. The next lead-silver shipments are scheduled for Q2 and Q4-2018 respectively.

Business improvement programs have been implemented to target key operational areas including production drilling support, introduction of raise-boring to improve the stope production cycle and mobile fleet optimization. Commissioning of the recently completed mill re-grind project continued through Q1 and is anticipated to result in improved zinc and lead recoveries going forward, in addition to higher-grade concentrate production when processing harder ore zones.

Planned 2018 metal production will increase in the second half of the year with lower grade stopes planned in the first half, followed by scheduled higher grade stopes in the second half of the year. The 2018 guidance remains unchanged for both metal production and costs (Please refer to non-IFRS Measures in the Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements at the end of this news release and in Trevali’s March 31, 2018 Management’s Discussion and Analysis).

Perkoa Mine, Burkina Faso (acquired by Trevali on August 31, 2017):

Q1 production from Perkoa was 47.4 million payable pounds of zinc. Mill throughput was 179,940 tonnes with recovery averaging 94% for zinc and an average head grade of 14.5% zinc to produce of 47,413 tonnes of zinc concentrate. Mine production was 192,158 tonnes.

The Company approved the procurement of a more efficient site power generating system in Q1. The project entails the installation of two 2.5MW Heavy Fuel Oil generators for an estimated capital cost of $9.2 million. The project is expected to reduce operating costs by between $6 and $7 per tonne milled when installed.

Perkoa production and costs remain in line with 2018 guidance and are expected to be broadly consistent through the year (Please refer to non-IFRS Measures in the Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements at the end of this news release and in Trevali’s March 31, 2018 Management’s Discussion and Analysis).

Exploration Update:

The primary aim of the 2018 exploration program is to expand and discover new mineral resources adjacent to existing mine infrastructure, replace mined inventory, grow sustainable production, extend expected mine life and ultimately, contingent on success, provide production growth optionality to the operations.

Exploration and resource conversion drilling totaled approximately 26,500 metres during the quarter.

At Perkoa, 5,680 metres of underground resource conversion drilling in the Hanging Wall lens was completed and continued to return exceptionally high-grade zinc results, including:

  • 16.25 metres at 18.52% zinc, including 9.85 metres at 24.35% zinc; and
  • 15.75 metres at 14.07% zinc, including 5.00 metres at 28.46% zinc

A 5,300-metre follow-up program of underground exploration drilling targeting the Hanging Wall lens below the modelled resources commenced in April 2018. Three holes have been completed and intercepted massive to semi-massive sulphide mineralization at least 180 metres below the current deepest planned mining levels; assay results are pending. A Borehole Electromagnetic (“BHEM”) survey from surface exploration drill holes along the Perkoa ore horizon was completed during the quarter and several electromagnetic conductors were identified. The data is being processed and targets are expected to be drill tested during the second and third quarters. Reconnaissance mapping and sampling along the plus-25 kilometre strike length of the Perkoa Mine Horizon resulted in the discovery of surface to sub-surface gossans (weathered sulphide mineralization) associated with the geophysical anomalies. Air core drilling of these new targets commenced in April 2018.

At Santander, three underground and two surface drills were active at the Magistral deposits and adjacent targets. The approximately 18,000-metre program continues to test the continuity of the deposit to the 4,000-metre mine level, or approximately 300 vertical metres below current development. Drilling also tested targets at the high-grade Pipe and successfully intercepted new mantos below historically mined levels. A BHEM survey commenced in April.

At Rosh Pinah, three underground drills continued exploration and resource conversion drilling. A total of 5,500 metres of resource conversion and expansion drilling was completed targeting the extensions of the Western Orefield (WF3) to the north and down-plunge of the orebody. Integrated targeting within the broader exploration license also commenced during the period.

In the Bathurst Mining Camp, a 4,500-metre drill campaign commenced in April at the Restigouche project in order to provide production and mine planning optionality for future Caribou mill feed. Thirteen drill holes totaling 2,460 metres have been completed to date and results continue to validate the geological model. A total of 2,480 metres of resource conversion drilling was completed at Caribou mine during Q1.
