AVINO SIGNS COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS FOR LA PRECIOSA

Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. has signed a long-term land use agreement with a local community for the development of La Preciosa in Durango, Mexico. La Preciosa hosts one of the largest undeveloped primary silver resources in Mexico and is located approximately 19 kilometres from the current Avino mine production operations, which has an operating 2,500-tonne-per-day mill processing facility and all the necessary infrastructure to allow for mineral processing from La Preciosa.

"This is a fantastic achievement and signals the start of a new era for Avino and the communities adjacent to the mine as we are one crucial step closer to putting La Preciosa into production," said David Wolfin, president and chief executive officer of Avino. "With this long-term land use agreement in place, we can commence hauling of old surface stockpiles to our mill for processing. We are now able to begin the filing of our environmental permit for underground extraction. Pending regulatory approval, we can start developing the ramp-down to our initial target of the high-grade Gloria vein. The La Preciosa mine represents a key pillar in our transformational growth strategy as well as hosting a large endowment of silver and gold resources which we expect to process for years to come. We are delighted to work with our local community stakeholders to come to this amicable and co-operative result."
