SSR MINING PROVIDES JULY 2019 EXPLORATION UPDATE
VANCOUVER, B.C. – SSR Mining Inc. (NASDAQ: SSRM) (TSX: SSRM) (“SSR Mining”) provides an update on its exploration activities and results at its Marigold mine in Nevada, U.S., Seabee Gold Operation in Saskatchewan, Canada and Pitarrilla project in Durango, Mexico for the period from October 1, 2018 to May 31, 2019 (the “Exploration Period”).
Paul Benson, President and CEO said, “Over recent years, we have continued to invest in our business, even in times of depressed precious metals prices. We are seeing the benefits of that investment now as we enter a period of anticipated increasing production, declining cash costs and continued exploration success.
I am pleased to report that the exploration and technical work at Red Dot, at the Marigold mine, has provided increased confidence in the deposit’s economics based on current assumptions, which include a gold price of $1,250 per ounce. Positively, we do not need to invest mining expansion capital considered in the Marigold Equipment Replacement Study to support Red Dot economics. Red Dot production is expected to be added to the current mine plan extending Marigold’s life into the early 2030’s. We continue drilling at Marigold and expect to commence soon an exploration program at the recently-acquired properties to the south of the mine. As a result, we expect to further grow Marigold’s Mineral Reserves and Resources in years to come.
We have also had success at Seabee with exciting results in our Santoy Gap Hanging Wall area. We continue both infill and step out drilling and expect Santoy Gap Hanging Wall to extend the Seabee mine life. Finally, we are also announcing works aimed at expanding the Pitarrilla high grade zone, with the objective to improve the economics of that project to a double-digit IRR at spot silver price.”
Highlights:

▪ | Successful Red Dot exploration program provides opportunity to extend Marigold mine life.

▪ | Exploration success in 2019: Exploration drilling in 2018 and geotechnical drilling and engineering completed in 2019 support the conversion of Red Dot Mineral Resources.

▪ | Marigold mine life extension: We expect Red Dot to extend the current Marigold life of mine plan into the early 2030’s without the need for expansion capital.

Marigold mine, U.S.
During the fourth quarter of 2018, drilling focused on converting Inferred Mineral Resources and adding to Mineral Resources in the Mackay pit, while drilling during 2019 has focused on increasing Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves in the Mackay pit and the North and South extensions of Red Dot. A total of 68,965 meters was drilled during the Exploration Period. The drill program included three core holes as part of the geotechnical study for the Red Dot pit designs and nine core holes for quality control within the Red Dot deposit.
During 2019, we have received results from 98 drillholes, which, combined with the drill program completed in 2018, are expected to further expand Mineral Reserves and add to Mineral Resources at Red Dot at year-end 2019.
Drilling locations at Marigold for the Exploration Period are shown in Figure 1, with highlighted results illustrated in the east-west cross-section in Figure 2 and the north-south longitudinal section in Figure 3. Table 1 lists selected drill results for the Exploration Period, while Table 2 provides the collar coordinates and drillhole lengths.
In 2018 and 2019, we acquired four parcels totaling 130 hectares of land located within the Marigold mine land package, as stated in our news release dated June 27, 2019. One of these parcels is located near South Red Dot, as shown in Figure 1. During the Exploration Period, we intersected higher grade mineralization at South Red Dot (see Figure 3), indicating the prospectivity of this land parcel and its potential to increase our Mineral Resources estimate at Marigold at year-end 2019.
The Red Dot area contained a Mineral Resources estimate as outlined in our year-end 2017 Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources estimate (see news release dated February 22, 2018) but did not demonstrate economic viability utilizing a $1,250 per ounce of gold price. As a result, in 2018, we initiated an extensive drill program at the Red Dot area with the goals of upgrading Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves and increasing the amount of contained gold by improving our geological understanding and defining higher-grade structures at this area. The 2018 Red Dot area drill program was successful in that it achieved, in part, our goal of converting Red Dot Mineral Resources by adding 350,000 ounces of gold to Mineral Reserves as reported in our year-end 2018 Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources estimate (see news release dated February 21, 2019), which we refer to as Red Dot Phase 1.
During the first half of 2019, the Red Dot exploration program focused on geotechnical drilling and engineering with the goal of declaring additional Mineral Reserves at Red Dot. We also completed preliminary pit designs and related economic evaluations referred to as the Marigold Equipment Replacement Study. These evaluations were completed with strict economic return and investment thresholds and were based on current assumptions, which include a gold price of $1,250 per ounce. Red Dot is anticipated to extend the Marigold mine life into the early 2030’s, without requiring expansion of the mining fleet or the associated expansion capital.

Exploration and permitting activities are currently underway in the Mackay pit, North and South Red Dot, Valmy, East Basalt and the newly-acquired Trenton Canyon areas, aimed at extending known gold mineralization and discovery during 2019 and beyond. We expect to commence the first phase of our exploration program at the Trenton Canyon property, which lies immediately south of Marigold, in the third quarter of 2019.
Seabee Gold Operation, Canada
At the Santoy mine complex, drilling throughout the Exploration Period focused on increasing Mineral Resources and defining Mineral Reserves at the Santoy Gap Hanging Wall (“Gap HW”), Santoy 8A and Santoy 9A and 9C zones. Greenfields exploration activities at the Seabee Gold Operation and Fisher property are focused on targeting new gold discoveries at the Batman Lake and Mac areas, respectively. Over the Exploration Period, 190 drillholes totaling 75,921 meters of core drilling were completed from underground and surface programs at the properties. Underground and surface exploration is on-going.
The Gap HW drill program has realized consistent positive results from areas up and down plunge from the initial Inferred Mineral Resources outlined at year-end 2018. The Gap HW Mineral Resources are located within 250 meters of Santoy 9 mineralization and extend parallel to the Santoy decline for approximately 300 meters. Currently, the mineralized structure demonstrates a plunge length of 1,200 meters associated with a folded granodiorite sill. As of the end of the Exploration Period, we have completed 77 drillholes at Gap HW, with 44 drillholes containing resource widths and grades of more than 3 g/t gold over 3 meters. Once compiled, we expect these results to add Mineral Resources at Santoy at year-end 2019. Highlighted drill results are shown in a longitudinal section of the Santoy mine complex in Figure 4 and a cross-section of the Gap HW in Figure 5. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
During the Exploration Period, we completed 36 drillholes at Santoy 8A and 33 drillholes at Santoy 9, which aided in converting Inferred Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves at year-end 2018. Our 2019 exploration program aims to increase Inferred Mineral Resources in these areas.
At the Batman Lake area, located 800 meters south of the Santoy mine, we completed four drillholes totaling 1,062 meters during the Exploration Period, of which three drillholes intersected a new mineralized area called the Riddler zone. This zone, averaging four meters of intercepted width, contained visible gold and exhibits plunge continuity of nearly 400 meters from 100 meters below surface. The best intercept returned 6.28 g/t gold over 1.5 meters in drillhole BAT-19-001 and demonstrates additional exploration potential within 800 meters of the Santoy mine complex, with additional drilling planned to investigate this mineralization, which remains open at depth.
At the Fisher project, our objective is to discover a new zone with potential for Inferred Mineral Resources. Work during the fourth quarter of 2018 focused on the Mac target, where we completed a drill program including ten drillholes totaling 3,552 meters. During 2019, at the Fisher project we have completed 20 drillholes totaling 7,640 meters, including a further seven drillholes and 3,522 meters at the Mac target. The program was successful in intersecting gold mineralization at the Mac vein in five drillholes with an average drilled width of two meters. Hole FIS-19-035 intercepted 3.76 g/t gold over 4.2 meters, representing the first occurrence at the Fisher project of mineable width and above cut-off grade gold mineralization.

Next exploration steps at the Seabee Gold Operation include completing exploration for additional Inferred Mineral Resources up and down plunge from the existing Gap HW Inferred Mineral Resources. We expect to evaluate Gap HW mining alternatives during 2020. Field programs targeting greenfields discovery are underway at the Seabee Gold Operation and Fisher property.
Table 3 lists selected drill results at the Santoy mine complex and the Batman Lake and Fisher project areas for the Exploration Period.
Pitarrilla Project, Mexico
The Pitarrilla project was the subject of a feasibility study completed in 2012. The feasibility study contemplated an open pit mine and capital intensive processing facilities capable of recovering silver and base metals from surface oxides, transition zone and deeper sulphide Mineral Resources using a long-term silver price of $25 per ounce.
In 2018, we evaluated a smaller scale, underground mine alternative, targeting higher-grade sulphide Mineral Resources using prevailing metals prices and lower capital, aligned with the reduced scope. While this evaluation resulted in a modest, positive return, our minimum investment criteria were not satisfied. However, the 2018 underground mine evaluation indicated that there is potential to increase the sulphide mineralization tonnage and metal grades for improved project economics with additional exploration activities. This is a result of moderately-spaced vertical exploration holes associated with the 2012 open pit mine scenario and sub-vertical structures controlling the higher-grade sulphide mineralization.
During the second quarter of 2019, we requested proposals from contractors to extend an existing exploration decline approximately 850 meters allowing for an in-fill drilling program of the Pitarrilla project sulphide Mineral Resources over an 18-month time period. We are in the process of evaluating and selecting a contractor to access and drill these Mineral Resources. If approved, drilling is expected to commence in the second half of 2020.
A cross-section for the proposed exploration drill program at the Pitarrilla project is shown in Figure 6.

Sampling and Analytical Procedures
All drill samples in respect of the Marigold mine drilling program were sent for processing and analysis to the offices of American Assay Laboratories, Inc. (“AAL”) in Sparks, Nevada which is an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory independent from SSR Mining. Fire assay was completed on a 30-gram sample (AAL method code FA-PB30-ICP) with an Inductively Coupled Plasma finish after a two acid digestion. Samples with assay results greater than 10 g/t gold were fire assayed on a 30-gram sample (AAL method code Grav Au30) with a gravimetric finish. We employ a rigorous Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”) program, which includes real-time assay quality monitoring through the regular insertion of blanks, duplicates, and certified reference material, as well as reviewing laboratory-provided QA/QC data.
All drill samples in respect of the Seabee Gold Operation drilling program were assayed by our onsite non-accredited assay laboratory, which is not independent from SSR Mining. Duplicate check assays were conducted at site as well as at TSL Laboratories Inc. in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, which is independent from SSR Mining. Results of the spot checks were consistent with those reported. Sampling interval was established by minimum or maximum sampling lengths and geological and/or structural criteria. Two hundred gram samples were pulverized until greater than 80 percent passed through 150 mesh screen. Thirty-gram pulp samples were then analyzed for gold by fire assay with gravimetric finish (0.01 g/t gold detection limit).

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors
This news release includes Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources classification terms that comply with reporting standards in Canada and the Mineral Reserves and the Mineral Resources estimates are made in accordance with NI 43-101. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC set out in SEC Industry Guide 7. Consequently, Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources information included in this news release is not comparable to similar information that would generally be disclosed by domestic U.S. reporting companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the SEC. Under SEC standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. In addition, the SEC’s disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning “Measured Mineral Resources,” “Indicated Mineral Resources” or “Inferred Mineral Resources” or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute “reserves” by U.S. standards in documents filed with the SEC. U.S. investors should understand that “Inferred Mineral Resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. Moreover, the requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of “reserves” are also not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves reported by us in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as “reserves” under SEC standards. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable with information made public by companies that report in accordance with U.S. standards.
