This year was highlighted by record 3<sup style="vertical-align:super">rd</sup> and 4<sup style="vertical-align:super">th</sup> quarterly production levels not seen in Avino&#8217;s recent history as we increased our mill throughput by 228% year over year to almost 542,000 tonnes. This reflects the steady ramp up at the Avino mine,&#8221; said David Wolfin, President and CEO. &#8220;In a year impacted by inflation, global conflicts, and an uneasy economic outlook, we have demonstrated resilient operational achievements at Avino that have generated a significant 294% increase of yearly revenues to $44.2 million and $15.1 million in yearly mine operating income. We are focused on our clear path to transformation growth, with a collective effort of initiative, resilience, and once again strong cost management both corporately and at the mine site. We remain well-positioned to manage through any near-term pressures arising from an overall economic slowdown and focused on delivering the best performance to our shareholders and stakeholders, while executing on our growth plan to become an intermediate producer in Mexico.&#8221;</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin:0px"> <table

In line with Avino&#8217;s policy of local employment, Mexican nationals account for 100% of the mine work force. Currently there are 452 direct jobs at the mine, which has increased substantially since the restart of operations in 2021, and this translates to over 1,200 indirect jobs in Durango, Mexico. In addition, Avino is actively increasing its workforce diversification by hiring more women for historically male-dominated roles through targeted recruitment and development programs.
