Fiore Gold’s Pan Mine Receives Mine Operator Safety Award from Nevada Mining Association for Fifth Consecutive Year

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 9, 2020 / FIORE GOLD LTD. (TSXV:F)(OTCQB:FIOGF)(FSE:2FO) (“Fiore” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Pan Mine has been awarded the 2020 Nevada Mining Association (“NVMA”) Mine Operator Safety Award in the small mines category (Nevada Mining Association Announces 2020 Operator Safety Awards). The Pan Mine also received this award in 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

The NVMA Safety Awards are based on performance in the previous calendar year. Awards are given to the top mines in designated categories based on their safety rate, which is calculated through a formula that factors the number of employees on site, number of hours worked in 2019, penalties for lost-time accidents, number of reportable incidents, and lost-time days.

In addition to the award, the Pan Mine is proud to have completed 216,453 total site man-hours worked through Q3 fiscal 2020 with no reportable environmental incidents and zero lost-time injuries.

Andy Britton, Pan Mine’s General Manager, commented, “Even though we have achieved record quarterly and monthly production during the year, the rigor around employee safety and environmental stewardship is paramount. These two principals continue to be foundational cornerstones of our company culture.”

Ross MacLean, Fiore Gold Chief Operating Officer added, “I am extremely proud of our team at the Pan Mine for receiving the 2020 Nevada Mining Association Safety Award for the fifth consecutive year. This has been a particularly challenging year as we battled concerns with COVID-19 to maintain a safe and environmentally sound operation. It is worth recognizing that we have had a similarly stellar environmental performance for over 5 years. This recognition also reflects our ongoing partnership with our contract miner, Ledcor, and their commitment to maintaining high safety and environmental standards at Pan. The team at Pan is proud of their past performance and is always looking forward to continuously improving the health, safety and environmental standards.”

Corporate Strategy

Our corporate strategy is to grow Fiore Gold into a 150,000 ounce per year gold producer. To achieve this, we intend to:

  • grow gold production at the Pan Mine while also growing the reserve and resource base;
  • advance exploration and development of the nearby Gold Rock project; and
  • acquire additional production or near-production assets to complement our existing operations.
