production figures have not been reconciled and are subject to adjustment
with concentrate sales. Year-to-date and calculated figures may not add up
due to rounding.
San Gonzalo April Highlights
-- Total silver equivalent ounces for April decreased by 17.2% from March
due to lower tonnage processed and lower silver feed grade;
-- The lower tonnage processed was due to one fewer operating days;
-- Lower silver feed grade was due to more development material processed;
-- Silver & gold recoveries were similar to March;
-- Production in May will contain more material from the stopes and less
development material
Circuit 2 Production (Historic Above Ground Stockpiles)
On April 11th 2013, Avino commissioned an additional 250 tonne per day circuit
at its processing plant known as circuit 2. The circuit is currently being used
to process historic above ground stockpiles left from past mining of the Avino
vein. (For more information please see the news release dated April 29 2013).
Prior to the San Gonzalo mine commencing production at the beginning of Q4 2012,
mill circuit 1 was used to process material from the same stockpiles, during Q3
circuit 1 produced 50,074 ounces of silver equivalent, Avino expects output to
be similar from circuit 2. Select production data from Q3 and April 2013 are
presented below.

Silver equivalent for July through September was calculated using a 50:1
ratio for silver to gold, for the month of April a 55:1 ratio was used.
(The ratio was changed to reflect more current gold and silver prices.)
Mill production figures have not been reconciled and are subject to
adjustment with concentrate sales.
Circuit 2 April Highlights
-- Feed grades in April from the historic stockpiles are similar to those
of September 2012 when processing of this material ceased;
-- Recoveries for silver and gold are similar but the concentrate grades
are better.

Mill assays are performed at the lab onsite at the mine. Check samples are
verified by SGS laboratory Services in Durango, Mexico. Concentrate shipments

Cautionary Note to United States Investors - The information contained herein
and incorporated by reference herein has been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of
United States securities laws. In particular, the term "resource" does not
equate to the term "reserve". The Securities Exchange Commission's (the "SEC")
disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information
concerning "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" or
"inferred mineral resources" or other descriptions of the amount of
mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute "reserves" by SEC
standards, unless such information is required to be disclosed by the law of the
Company's jurisdiction of incorporation or of a jurisdiction in which its
securities are traded. U.S. investors should also understand that "inferred
mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and
great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. Disclosure of
"contained ounces" is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however,
the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not
constitute "reserves" by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without
reference to unit measures.
