1.  In calculating cash costs per ounce sold the Company has excluded the
    difference between the book value and fair value of inventory acquired
    at the date of acquisition of the 50% interest in the Isidora Mine.
2.  Total cash costs used in the calculation of cash costs per ounce is
    calculated as mining operating expenses from the consolidated statement
    of operations excluding accretion expense related to the asset
    retirement obligations, impairment of inventories and expense of the
    fair value differential between the book value and fair value of
    inventory acquired at the date of acquisition of the 50% interest in
    the Isidora Mine.
3.  Cash costs per ounce sold is a non-GAAP measure. Total cash costs per
    ounce sold as shown above is calculated by dividing the total cash
    costs by the gold ounces sold during the period. Cash costs per ounce
    sold includes all expenditures incurred at the mine site such as mining,
    processing, administration, royalties and production taxes but excludes
    reclamation, capital and exploration expenditures, adjustment to foreign
    currency conversion rate and the fair value differential between the
    book value and fair value of inventory acquired at the date of
    acquisition of the 50% interest in the Isidora Mine.
4.  Average realized gold price is impacted by a discount to spot price of
    gold and by the timing of gold sales. The Company did not conduct gold
    sales in August or September of 2009. As the Company did not conduct
    gold sales in August or September of 2009, the average spot gold price
    reported for the three months ended September 30, 2009 is the July 2009
    average spot gold price.

Choco Mine Q3

During Q3 2009, the Company's 95%-owned Choco Mine produced 29,456 oz Au and had a cash cost per ounce sold of $275 as compared to 22,082 oz Au and a cash cost of $805 per ounce sold, reported in Q3, 2008. Cash costs were less than forecasted due mainly to lower overall costs and higher-grade (g/t) ore processed, as well as continued enhanced recoveries due to the installation of a new kiln and carbon recovery system in Q2. The Company's guidance for 2009 remains at 135,000 ounces of gold production at the Choco Mine operations at a cash cost per ounce guidance of approximately $375 per oz Au.

During Q3 2009 the Company initiated a Feasibility Study to follow up on the positive Preliminary Assessment (PA), completed by Micon International Limited, to evaluate the viability of a major expansion at the Choco Mine and Choco Mine Mill and which will incorporate the nearby Increible 6 gold deposit. The initial PA is detailed in a report dated June 2, 2009 and titled "Technical Report on the Preliminary Assessment of the Expansion of Production at Choco 10, Bolivar State, Venezuela". The PA outlined favourable economics for a significant expansion from 135,000 oz Au/yr (2009 guidance) to an average of 558,000 oz Au/yr at cash cost of US$331/oz Au over the life of mine (LOM). Micon International Limited will continue on as the Company's engineering consultants on the project and will be responsible for overseeing the feasibility study through to its completion. The scoping study results were reported in the news release dated May 19, 2009, which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Isidora Mine Q3

During Q3 2009, the Company's 50% owned Isidora Mine produced 5,920 oz Au (net to the Company) and had a cash cost per ounce sold of $357. The Company continues to forecast 70,000 ounces of gold production at Isidora Mine for 2009 (35,000 net to the Company) at a cash cost guidance of approximately $350 per oz Au.

The Company is on schedule with its exploration program at Isidora Mine designed to expand existing resources to support future gold production with 7,963 meters of drilling (21 holes) completed during Q3 2009, bringing the total in 2009 to 20,362 meters (45 holes). Results received to date from the drilling completed in Q2/Q3 2009 are reported in the table below.
