VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 15, 2025 / Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX:ASM)(NYSE American:ASM)(FSE:GV6) a long-standing silver producer in Mexico, reports that underground development at its 100%-owned La Preciosa Property ("La Preciosa") has commenced following receipt of all required permits for mining operations.

溫哥華,BC / ACCESSWIRE / 2025年1月15日 / Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX:ASM)(紐約證券交易所:ASM)(FSE:GV6) 是墨西哥一家長期的銀生產商,報告稱其100%持有的La Preciosa物業("La Preciosa")的地下開發已在獲得所有必需的採礦許可證後開始。

"This milestone achievement is a testament to the dedication and vision of the entire Avino team," said David Wolfin, President and CEO of Avino. "It underscores our firm commitment to responsible development and transformational growth. The receipt of all required permits marks the culmination of lengthy collaboration with Federal and State regulators, as well as meaningful engagement with community leaders. This step marks a significant milestone for Avino, as we move one of Mexico's largest undeveloped silver deposits forward. La Preciosa represents higher silver grades than currently being mined and processed at Avino. This, coupled with robust metal prices, is setting Avino up for a strong 2025 and beyond. We would like to thank our experienced and devoted team who completed the rigorous permit process culminating in this successful approval. Furthermore, we commend everyone involved for their role in advancing La Preciosa and all those who share our vision for a better future for local communities and stakeholders."

"這一里程碑的成就是整個Avino團隊的奉獻和願景的證明," Avino的總裁兼首席執行官David Wolfin說。"它強調了我們對負責任發展和轉型增長的堅定承諾。獲得所有必需的許可證標誌着與聯邦和州監管機構的長期合作以及與社區領導人的重要接觸的高潮。這一步標誌着Avino的重要里程碑,因爲我們推動墨西哥最大未開發銀礦之一的發展。La Preciosa代表的銀品位高於Avino目前正在開採和加工的銀品位。再加上堅挺的金屬價格,正在爲Avino迎接一個強大的2025年及以後奠定基礎。我們要感謝我們經驗豐富且忠誠的團隊,他們完成了這項嚴格的許可流程,並最終獲得成功的批准。此外,我們讚揚所有參與者在推動La Preciosa發展和所有共享我們對地方社區和利益相關者更美好未來願景的人所發揮的作用。"

With many of the necessary outbuildings completed, Avino has proactively prepared its mining fleet and is now advancing the development of a 350-metre mine access and haulage decline. This is designed to intercept the high-grade La Gloria and Abundancia veins, aligning with the Company's mine development plan.

隨着許多必要的附屬建築完工,Avino積極準備其採礦設備,並現在推進350米礦井通道和交通斜坡的開發。這一設計旨在攔截高品位的La Gloria和Abundancia礦脈,符合公司的礦開採開發計劃。

Beyond direct job creation, activities at La Preciosa are expected to drive local economic growth, including the generation of both direct and indirect employment opportunities among local suppliers, subcontractors, and community groups. Avino is committed to operating La Preciosa with a small environmental footprint and in an economically sustainable manner.

除了直接創造就業機會外,La Preciosa的活動預計將推動當地經濟增長,包括在當地供應商、分包商和社區團體中創造直接和間接的就業機會。Avino致力於以小的環境足跡和經濟可持續的方式運營La Preciosa。

Development for the first phase at La Preciosa is expected to be under $5M and will be funded from cash reserves. Avino had approximately $26 million in cash at the end of 2024 and remains debt-free, excluding operating equipment leases, demonstrating significant cash flow generation throughout Q4 2024. Our strong balance sheet and working capital will provide the foundation to support our transformational growth plans, which will be further outlined in our 2025 Outlook.

La Preciosa第一階段的開發預計費用將低於500萬,並將通過現金儲備進行資助。到2024年底,Avino的現金約爲2600萬,且保持無債務狀態(不包括運營設備租賃),顯示出在2024年第四季度的顯著現金流產生。我們強大的資產負債表和營運資金將爲我們的轉型增長計劃提供基礎,這些計劃將在2025年的展望中進一步闡述。

Cautionary note to U.S. Investors concerning estimates of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources

對美國投資者關於礦產儲量和礦產資源估算的警示說明

All reserve and resource estimates reported by Avino were estimated in accordance with the Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum ("CIM") Definition Standards. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") now recognizes estimates of "measured mineral resources," "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources" and uses new definitions of "proven mineral reserves" and "probable mineral reserves" that are substantially similar to the corresponding CIM Definition Standards. However, the CIM Definition Standards differ from the requirements applicable to US domestic issuers. US investors are cautioned not to assume that any "measured mineral resources," "indicated mineral resources," or "inferred mineral resources" that the Issuer reports are or will be economically or legally mineable. Further, "inferred mineral resources" are that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade are estimated on the basis of limited geologic evidence and sampling. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Avino報告的所有儲量和資源估算均按照加拿大國家工具43-101和加拿大礦業、冶金與石油學院("CIM")定義標準進行估算。美國證券交易委員會("SEC")現在承認「已測礦產資源」、「指示礦產資源」和「推測礦產資源」的估算,並使用與相應的CIM定義標準實質相似的新定義的「已探明礦產儲量」和「可能探明礦產儲量」。然而,CIM定義標準與適用於美國國內發行人的要求不同。美國投資者被提醒不要假定發行人報告的任何「已測礦產資源」、「指示礦產資源」或「推測礦產資源」是或將是經濟上或法律上可開採的。此外,「推測礦產資源」是根據有限的地質證據和採樣基礎上估算的礦產資源的數量和品位。不是礦產儲量的礦產資源沒有證明的經濟可行性。

Neither TSX nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.

TSX及其監管服務提供方(按照TSX的政策進行定義)不對此公告的充分性或準確性承擔責任。
