Overview of Q3 2014 El Aguila Project Results:

Gold Resource Corporations El Aguila Project produced 17,262 ounces AuEq at a total cash cost of $364 per ounce. Realized average metal price sales during the quarter were $1,295 per ounce gold and $20 per ounce silver. The Company recorded a net loss of $(1.5) million, or $(0.03) per share, which if the Company had not stockpiled the 5,878 gold equivalent ounces of the high-grade gold and silver concentrates in its inventory, in preparation for processing in the new Aguila Mill Dor facility, the outcome would have resulted in net income instead of a net loss per share for the three months ended September, 30, 2014. Cash Flow from Mine Site Operations totaled $6.8 million. The Company paid $1.6 million to shareholders in dividends, or $0.03 per share during the quarter. Cash and cash equivalents at quarter end totaled $24.8 million, a 66% increase from December 31, 2013. Realized gold and silver prices increased 4% and 5%, respectively, from the third quarter of 2013.

The Company delivered weaker than expected quarterly operating results with production levels approximately 24% lower in the quarter compared to the quarterly average of the first half of 2014, stated Gold Resource Corporations CEO and President, Mr. Jason Reid. The Company has implemented new mine management in response to these unsatisfactory results and believes that fourth quarter production can rebound, which puts the lower range of the Companys 2014 Outlook within reach. We stockpiled much of our high-grade gold and silver concentrates produced during the quarter in preparation for pouring Dor bars in our new Dor facility, which we began commissioning at the end of the quarter and which increased our unsold inventories. We recorded a $(0.03) per share loss which was contributed by unsold concentrate inventory as a result of stockpiling the high-grade concentrates for the Dor facility process. These inventoried ounces are planned to be processed and sold during the fourth quarter as Dor bars. By expanding our production methods, we expect to lower our treatment and royalty costs for the Dor ounces sold further optimizing operational costs. Total cash costs of $364 per precious metal gold equivalent ounce sold, calculated after by-product credits and including royalties, was 52% lower than third quarter of 2013 and in line with total cash costs the prior two quarters of this year. Though the third quarter was a challenging one, it was not without some measures of success as we reached a major Company milestone by returning an aggregate of over $100 million dollars back to shareholders in consecutive monthly dividends.

Below is a table of the key production statistics for our El Aguila Project during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013:

- Mill production represents metal contained in concentrates produced at the mill, which is before payable metal deductions are levied by the buyer of our concentrates. Payable metal deduction quantities are defined in our contracts with the buyer of our concentrates and represent an estimate of metal contained in the concentrates produced at our mill, for which the buyer cannot recover through the smelting process. There are inherent limitations and differences in the sampling method and assaying of estimated metal contained in concentrates that are shipped, and those contained metal estimates derived from sampling methods and assaying throughout the mill production process. The Company monitors these differences to ensure that precious metal mill production quantities are materially correct.

- Average metal prices realized vary from the market metal prices due to out of period settlement adjustments from our provisional invoices when they are settled. Our average metal prices realized will therefore differ from the market average metal prices in most cases.

- Precious metal gold equivalent mill production for the three months ended September 30, 2014 of 17,262 ounces differs from gold equivalent ounces sold for the same period of 11,923 due principally to buyer (smelter) concentrate processing deductions of approximately 1,466 gold equivalent ounces and an increase in gold equivalent ounces contained in ending inventory of approximately 3,872 ounces.

- Precious metal gold equivalent mill production for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 of 65,182 ounces differs from gold equivalent ounces sold for the same period of 53,194 principally due to buyer (smelter) concentrate processing deductions of approximately 6,918 gold equivalent ounces and an increase in gold equivalent ounces contained in ending inventory of approximately 5,070 ounces.
