Gold Resource Corporation Achieves 2018 Annual Gold and Silver Production Targets

Gold Resource Corporation (NYSE:GORO)(the “Company”) today announced preliminary 2018 year-end and fourth quarter mill production results.  The Company produced approximately 26,838 gold ounces and 1,672,034 silver ounces for the 2018 year, which met its annual gold and silver production target ranges.  Gold Resource Corporation is a gold and silver producer, developer and explorer with operations in Oaxaca, Mexico and Nevada, U.S.A.  The Company has returned $111 million to its shareholders in monthly dividends since commercial production commenced July 1, 2010 and offers its shareholders the option to convert their cash dividends into physical gold and silver and take delivery.

The Company’s 2018 annual production targets were 27,000 gold ounces and 1,700,000 silver ounces, plus or minus a 10% range.  Preliminary production results for 2018 of approximately 26,838 gold ounces and 1,672,034 silver ounces achieved the targeted range.  Fourth quarter gold and silver production totaled approximately 7,974 ounces and 330,605 ounces, respectively.  Preliminary annual base metal production included approximately 1,652 tonnes of copper, 7,280 tonnes of lead and 19,808 tonnes of zinc.

“Our Oaxaca Mining Unit’s operations team delivered another year of solid production results for 2018,” Gold Resource Corporation CEO and President, Mr. Jason Reid, stated.  “In addition to achieving annual precious metal production targets, the team successfully delivered significant increased base metal production directly related to the development and mining of the lower levels of the Switchback vein system.  As mine operations move to the higher elevation levels of the Switchback vein system, we believe precious metal grades will increase while base metal grades will decrease.  We also look forward to the commissioning of the Isabella Pearl mine, targeted by June 2019, which is expected to significantly add to the Company’s gold production profile in 2019.”

Full financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year-end 2018 will be available in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company is finalizing its 2019 production Outlook and looks forward to its future release.
