Ed Guimaraes, Chief Financial Officer of Sierra Metals, commented: "The Company delivered
continued production growth during the first quarter, setting new records for total silver
production of 899,691 ounces and ore throughput. The record silver production resulted from
increases in silver head grades and recoveries and plant throughput at our Yauricocha Mine
in Peru, combined with the increase in silver head grades and new plant throughput records
at our Cusi and Bolivar mines in Mexico. The continued ramp-up at Bolivar, and the connection
of the new power line on the 10th of March contributed to the highest quarterly metal production
ever achieved at this mine. The quality of our assets will enable us to continue on path towards
meeting or exceeding 2015 production guidance and plan for future brownfield expansions.”
