The mine plan includes changing the mining method to long hole mining, which is considered safer and less labour intensive than previous trial methods employed and would support production levels of up to 300 tpd. New mining equipment is being acquired to replace older equipment and to further mechanize for long hole mining. The first work to be carried out underground will be to test the long hole mining method. Engineering is in progress to expand the mill from 100 tpd to 300 tpd. Engineering is also being carried out to upgrade the surface infrastructure for a 300 tpd operation. Expansion work for the mill and infrastructure is expected to start in the latter part of 2016. </p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px">The tailings impoundment for the Tailings Storage Facility ("TSF") was raised in October 2015, and additional buttress work is currently being carried out on the impoundment with completion scheduled for the third quarter of 2016. The Interim Mine Closure Plan ("IMCP") and review process is also expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2016. The work on the TSF, the IMCP and the strategic operating plan is contributing to the Company's goal of obtaining the permits to resume processing and mining activities from British Columbia's Ministry of Energy &amp; Mines and Ministry of Environment. </p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px"><b>Non-IFRS Measures<i></i></b></p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px">The financial results in this news release include references to cash flow per share, cash cost per silver equivalent ounce, and all-in sustaining cash cost per silver equivalent ounce, each of which are non-IFRS measures.

In particular, the term "resource" does not equate to the term "reserve". The Securities Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") 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 SEC standards, unless such information is required to be disclosed by the law of the Company's jurisdiction of incorporation or of a jurisdiction in which its securities are traded. U.S. investors should also 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. Disclosure of "contained ounces" is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute "reserves" by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures.</i></p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;<i><br>Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.</i></p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px"><table style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT: 10pt TIMES NEW ROMAN" cellspacing="0" cols="3" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center" border="0" >    <tr><td width="20%"><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p></td><td><p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="center">6</p></td><td width="20%"><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p></td></tr></table></p><p style="FONT-SIZE: 1px; WIDTH: 100%; BORDER-BOTTOM: #000000 1px solid; MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p></BODY></html>
