      3. Includes pre-production gold ounces from the Young-Davidson underground mine.

Recent Highlights

  • Effective October 31, 2013 the Company declared commercial production of the Young-Davidson underground mine following the successful commissioning of the shaft and hoisting infrastructure. This key milestone will support increased underground productivities and favourable unit cost efficiencies over the life of the mine and will be pivotal in unlocking the potential of the Young-Davidson mine and positioning the Company for the future.
  • The Company's quarterly dividend payment of $0.04 per share for the third quarter was paid on October 29, 2013. The Company has introduced an optional dividend reinvestment plan to acquire additional common shares by reinvesting cash dividends. Further information on the Company's dividend reinvestment plan is available through the following link: http://www.auricogold.com/DRIP. The next dividend payment is scheduled to be paid on January 29, 2014 to shareholders of record on January 14, 2014.

"With the declaration of commercial production at the Young-Davidson underground mine the Company will begin to deliver steadily increasing annual production growth as the shaft and hoisting system supports increased underground productivities over the coming years," stated Scott Perry, President and Chief Executive Officer. He continued, "With five consecutive quarters of solid, company-wide results being reported, we continue to demonstrate the potential of our high quality asset base and the depth of our operations team. With two quality operations, a strong cash position and a fully-funded growth profile that is underpinned by the potential of the Young-Davidson mine, the Company is well positioned for significant, sustainable and profitable growth going forward."

    (1)  See the tables at the end of this press release for a reconciliation
         of adjusted net earnings and adjusted operating cash flow and refer
         to the discussion of Non-GAAP measures below. Total cash costs per
         gold ounce have been presented prior to net realizable value
         adjustments and reversals on the Young-Davidson low-grade long-term
         stockpile inventory and the El Chanate heap leach ore in process
         inventory. The Company has restated adjusted net earnings for 2012.
    (2)  Certain comparative information has been restated as a result of the
         adoption of IFRIC 20, Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a
         Surface Mine, which was applied prospectively to production stripping
         costs incurred on or after January 1, 2012. For further details,
         refer to the Critical Accounting Estimates, Policies and Changes
         section on page 24 in the Company's Management's Discussion &
         Analysis or note 3(a) to the Company's condensed consolidated
         financial statements for the three and nine months ended September
         30, 2013.
    (3)  The Young-Davidson open pit mine declared commercial production on
         September 1, 2012, and is therefore excluded from consolidated cash
         costs prior to this date. Pre-production ounces produced are excluded
         from consolidated ounces produced as these ounces are credited
         against capitalized project costs when sold.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company uses the measures adjusted net earnings, cash costs per ounce, all-in sustaining costs per ounce, adjusted operating cash flow and net free cash flow in this press release, which do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS" or "GAAP").  They are, therefore, considered to be non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The non-GAAP measures cash costs per ounce, all-in sustaining costs per ounce and net free cash flow are reconciled to the Company's financial statements beginning on page 20 of the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Adjusted net earnings is comprised of net earnings from both continuing and discontinued operations, adjusted for specific items. While the adjustments to net earnings in this measure include items that are recurring, adjusted net earnings is a useful measure as the unrealized gains / losses on foreign exchange, fair value adjustments on contingent consideration and derivatives, impairment charges, net realizable value adjustments, and other non-recurring items do not reflect the underlying operating performance of the Company's core mining business in the periods presented and are not necessarily indicative of future operating results.

Adjusted operating cash flow excludes the change in non-cash operating working capital, which includes changes in receivables, inventories, prepaid assets, and payables.

All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words "expect", "believe", "anticipate", "will", "intend", "estimate", "forecast", "budget", "schedule" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of factors and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by management, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

Such factors include, but are not limited to: changes to current estimates of mineral reserves and resources; fluctuations in the price of gold; changes in foreign exchange rates (particularly the Canadian dollar, Mexican peso and U.S. dollar); the impact of inflation; changes in our credit rating; any decision to declare a quarterly dividend; employee relations; litigation; disruptions affecting operations; availability of and increased costs associated with mining inputs and labor; development delays at the Young-Davidson mine; operating or technical difficulties in connection with mining or development activities; inherent risks associated with mining and mineral processing; the risk that the Young-Davidson and El Chanate mines may not perform as planned; uncertainty with the Company's ability to secure capital to execute its business plans; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits; contests over title to properties; changes in national and local government legislation in Canada, Mexico and other jurisdictions in which the Company does or may carry on business in the future; risk of loss due to sabotage and civil disturbances; the impact of global liquidity and credit availability and the values of assets and liabilities based on projected future cash flows; risks arising from holding derivative instruments; business opportunities that may be pursued by the Company. Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. All of the forward-looking statements made in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements. Specific reference is made to the most recent Form 40-F/Annual Information Form on file with the SEC and Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities for a discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements.

The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources

This presentation uses the terms "measured," "indicated" and "inferred" resources.  We advise investors that while those terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them.  Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be converted into mineral reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
