As quoted in the press release:

Holt Mine (‘Holt’)

Holt produced 14,908 ounces of gold derived from Zone 4 on the 925m Level and 1075m Level mining areas (60%) and from Zone 6 on the 775m Level (40%). Head grades were down approximately 16% from the previous quarter (‘Q3 2014′) due to Zone 4 stope sequencing. However, throughput was 19% higher from Q3 2014 as the operation has now established Zone 6 at the 775m Level. Mill recoveries were at their expected level of approximately 95%.

Holloway Mine (‘Holloway’)

Holloway produced 7,734 ounces of gold entirely from the Smoke Deep Zone. Production increased by approximately 30% compared to Q3 2014 as a result of higher tonnes, higher head grades, and stope sequencing. The head grade during the quarter was 13% higher than Q3 2014, and the mill recovery rate of approximately 92% was in line with expectations. Based on current information, production at Holloway is expected to continue into Q4 of 2015.
