Non-IFRS Financial Performance Measures

The Company has included certain non-IFRS measures in this press release, including "total cash cost per copper pound", "average realized price", "average realized margin", "adjusted EBITDA" and "adjusted EBITDA per share". The Company believes these measures, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, provide investors an improved ability to evaluate the underlying performance of the Company. The non-IFRS measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These measures do not have do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS, and therefore may not be comparable to other issuers.

Operations Update

As reported previously, Copper production from the Company's leaching operations began to decline in September 2014. Investigation of the cause revealed that a sudden and unprecedented occurrence of clay materials had appeared in the ore in the south pit of the mine where the last few benches of material from a "slip" (i.e., material higher up in the mine that slid down a slope as a result of being located along a fault zone,) area were being mined. This clay material was mixed with ore sent to the crusher and distributed onto the leach pad with a dozer. This resulted in a top layer of low permeability of the heap (i.e., stacked ore on the leach pad), greatly reducing the overall permeability of the heap and hence reducing the percolation of fluid flow through the heap to the SX/EW plant.

Last November, mining was suspended in order to (a) increase permeability on the leach pad so that fresh ore could be stacked, and (b) process clay-bearing ore inventory stacked on the pad.

The first phase of the company's rehabilitation plan included, permeability testing, draining surface ponds, ripping the top surface of the heap, optimizing irrigation to the pad, updating the future mine plan with extensive blast hole data incorporated, and performing agglomeration test work.

The second phase of the plan will include: conveying clay-bearing stacked ore from the top layers of the heap to a limited footprint on part of the pad; extending the impermeable pad liner of the leach pad; and resuming mining in the north pit and stacking fresh ore on the leach pad.

The final phase of the plan will be to agglomerate and re-stack the clay-bearing ore on the leach pad.
