TORONTO, Jan. 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Gran Colombia Gold Corp. (TPRFF)(GCM.TO) announced today that it produced a
total of 51,699 ounces of gold in the fourth quarter of 2017, up 26%
over the fourth quarter last year.
This brings the total gold production for the year to 173,821 ounces,
up 16% over 2016 and surpassing its guidance for the current year.
The Segovia Operations continued to be the key catalyst for growth in
Gran Colombia’s gold production with 45,588 ounces of gold produced
in the fourth quarter of 2017, up 31% over the fourth quarter last year.
This brings the total for the Segovia Operations for 2017 to 148,659
ounces, up 18% over 2016 and above guidance for the current year.
Company-operated mining areas, led by the continued high grade trend at
the Providencia mine this year, produced 17,761 ounces of gold in the
fourth quarter of 2017, up 78% over the fourth quarter last year,
bringing the full year total to 50,248 ounces, up 67% over 2016.
In the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company also benefitted from the
additional material sourced from contract miners under new operating
contracts entered into since August 2017 under which Gran Colombia is
retaining between 10% and 60% of the spot price for each ounce of gold
produced.
Contract mining production totalled 27,827 ounces of gold in the fourth
quarter of 2017, up 12% over the fourth quarter last year.
For the full year, contract mining production increased 2% over 2016
to 98,411 ounces in 2017.
At the Marmato Operations, gold production in the fourth quarter of 2017
amounted to 6,111 ounces, comparable to the fourth quarter last year.
This brings the full year total to 25,162 ounces, up 7% over its 2016
annual production and within its guidance range for the current year.

financial results on or about March 27, 2018.
