McEwen Mining Inc. (TSE:MUX) (NYSE:MUX) has had a very busy and productive 5-week period at our Gold Bar Project, located in Central Nevada. Construction activities began immediately when we received the Environmental Impact Statement [EIS] in November.

With construction activities underway, we are on on track for commercial production in 2019. The unseasonably mild winter conditions this year, have allowed us to accelerate aspects of our construction schedule.

Highlights of construction activities to date include:

1. Mobilized all major site contractors by November 8th

2. Site clearance and initial preparation for 2018 civil work largely complete

3. Installed temporary offices, communications equipment, water, and power

4. Began installation of mine water supply system; and

5. Mine development underway at Cabin Creek pit, the initial source of production
