- Greatly enhances Timmins Gold's potential production growth and cash cost profile - life of mine annual average gold production expected to grow approximately 175%, reaching approximately 326,000 ounces of gold assuming both Ana Paula and Caballo Blanco are put into production at the levels estimated in the Ana Paula PEA and the Caballo Blanco PEA; all-in-sustaining cash costs per ounce are expected to be reduced by approximately 21% to less than US$780 per ounce gold

- Significant increase in global resource size and grade with 75% increase in total M&I gold resources and 34% increase in average M&I gold grade
- Experienced management team with a proven track record of building and operating open-pit mines and long-standing in-country relationships; supported by a highly-qualified board of directors
- Increased scale of the combined company will enhance its capital markets profile and liquidity and provides for strong re-rating potential
- Strong support from Newstrike's largest shareholders, two companies controlled by a trust settled by the late Adolf H. Lundin, and Timmins Gold's largest institutional shareholder Sentry Investments Inc..
