Dundee Precious Metals Files NI 43-101 Technical Report Supporting the Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Timok Gold Project in Serbia

August 29, 2019

TORONTO, Aug. 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dundee Precious Metals Inc. (TSX: DPM)(“DPM” or “the Company”) announced today that the Company has filed a National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") Technical Report supporting the updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) on its Timok Gold Project (“Timok”) in Serbia as previously announced in its news release dated July 15, 2019. The Technical Report and the July 15, 2019 news release are both available for review on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and on the Company's website (www.dundeeprecious.com).

As the scenario envisioned in the PEA targeted primarily oxide and transitional material types, DPM has now initiated an optimization study that targets mining and processing of additional sulphide material within the existing resource. DPM expects the optimization study will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2019 at which point a decision will be made whether to advance the project to a Preliminary Feasibility Study (“PFS”). Since the July 15 news release, applications to extend the Potaj Čuka Tisnica, Bigar Istok and Umka exploration licences, which comprise the Timok Gold Project, have been approved by the Serbian government.
