<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="center"><b>AVINO ANNOUNCES AN UPDATED MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE AT THE AVINO PROPERTY</b></p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">Avino Silver &amp; Gold Mines Ltd. (ASM: TSX/NYSE American, GV6: FSE, &#8220;Avino&#8221; or &#8220;the Company&#8221;) is pleased to announce the completion of an updated mineral resource estimate for the Company&#8217;s Avino Property located near Durango in west-central Mexico (the &#8220;Property&#8221;). The updated estimate encompasses the Property&#8217;s San Gonzalo Mine, the Avino Mine vein systems, and the Property&#8217;s Oxide Tailings. The mineral resources estimate has been included in an updated technical report prepared by Aranz Geo Ltd. under National Instrument 43-101 (&#8220;NI-43-101&#8221;), which will be available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) under the Company&#8217;s profile and filed on Form 6-K with the SEC within 45 days.</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">This updated mineral resource estimate includes 34 drill holes that were completed during the drill programs from 2016 to 2017. These drilling programs have significantly increased the amount of information available for resource estimation. The drill holes and assay data were incorporated into the updated mineral resource estimate. The results of the additional drilling contributed to an approximate 225% increase in tonnage in the Measured and Indicated Resource categories and a decrease of 25% in the Inferred resource due to a conversion of a portion of the Inferred Resources to the Indicated Resource category. </p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">The total measured and indicated mineral resources in all deposits totals 10.7 million metric tonnes containing 47.5 million troy ounces of silver equivalent, 26.3 million troy ounces of silver, 217 thousand troy ounces of gold, and 86 million pounds of copper. The total inferred mineral resources in all deposits totals 6,090,000 metric tonnes containing 23.2 million troy ounces of silver equivalent, 13.6 million troy ounces of silver, 109 thousand troy ounces of gold, and 33 million pounds of copper.</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify"><i>&#8220;We are very pleased with the updated mineral resource estimate, which demonstrates a significant increase in the mineral resources potentially available for mill feed&#8221; said Avino President and CEO, David Wolfin. &#8220;The successful drill program that started in 2016 has allowed us to evaluate the tonnage and grade in the area between the San Luis workings and the ET production area, the results of which have now been incorporated into this updated mineral resource estimate. We are confident that our 2018 exploration program will continue to build on the success of our past operations. I would like to thank the exploration team in Mexico for their continued and invaluable efforts. Avino is celebrating its 50<sup>th</sup> year in the mining industry, and this would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of the entire Avino team.&#8221;</i></p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">The following is a summary of current resources at the San Gonzalo and Avino Mines, as well as the updated oxide tailings resource, grouped into the measured, indicated and inferred categories. The effective date of the resource estimates is January 31, 2018.</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">The resource estimates were prepared by Michael O&#8217;Brien P.Geo., Pr.Sci.Nat., who is a &#8220;Qualified Person&#8221; within the meaning of NI 43-101 and who is an employee of ARANZ Geo and independent of Avino, as defined by Section 1.5 of NI 43-101.</p>

<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">The estimation methods used were substantially the same for all three deposits, providing a consistent baseline for strategic planning.</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">Mineral resources were estimated by ordinary kriging, optimized using kriging neighborhood analysis and verified by means of nearest neighbor and inverse distance methods, swathplot comparisons of estimates and visual inspections. Block models were created for the San Gonzalo and Avino Vein Systems and the Oxide Tailings deposit and estimates were made utilizing blocks of sizes 20 m easting x 5 m northing x 10 m elevation for Avino (ET Mine), sizes 10 m easting x 5 m northing x10 m elevation for San Gonzalo and 40 m easting x 40 m northing x 2 m elevation for Oxide Tailings.</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">Classification of the mineral resource was based on &#8216;slope of regression&#8217; as a measure of uncertainty, with adjustment to practical geometries using geological knowledge of the deposit. </p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">Fundamental changes since the previous mineral resource estimates are (1) depletion due to mining (over 800 thousand tonnes milled since the beginning of 2017), (2) significant new sampling information (3) changes to cut-off calculations and (4) reclassification of mineral resources in the light of improved understanding of confidence in the deposits at distances from the underground channel samples and drill hole samples. </p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">More sampling information does not always lead to direct increases in resource tonnages and contained metal. In some cases, the new information provides improved understanding (developed by variogram modelling and kriging neighborhood analysis) that may demote some portions of mineral resource from high confidence categories, such as measured and indicated, to a lower confidence category such as inferred. </p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify">Currently, for the San Gonzalo and Avino Vein Systems, estimated blocks more than thirty metres from sampling are not considered to be of sufficient confidence to be included in the indicated category resources and have been classified as inferred resources. </p>

In addition, there are known and unknown risk factors which could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Known risk factors include risks associated with project development; the need for additional financing; operational risks associated with mining and mineral processing; fluctuations in metal prices; title matters; uncertainties and risks related to carrying on business in foreign countries; environmental liability claims and insurance; reliance on key personnel; the potential for conflicts of interest among certain of our officers, directors or promoters with certain other projects; the absence of dividends; currency fluctuations; competition; dilution; the volatility of the our common share price and volume; tax consequences to U.S. investors; and other risks and uncertainties. Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
