FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
1
All monetary amounts in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated. Certain statements in this information constitute forward-looking statements or forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws (“forward-looking statements”). Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions, potentials, future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “believes”, “expects”, “plans”, “estimates” or “intends” or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, “will” or “are projected to” be taken or achieved) are not statements of historical fact, but are forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements herein relate to, among other things, Orvana’s ability to achieve improvement in free cash flow; the potential to extend the mine life of El Valle and Don Mario beyond their current life-of-mine estimates including specifically, but not limited to in the case of Don Mario, the completion of the major tailings storage facility expansion, the mining of the Cerro Felix deposit, the processing of the mineral stockpiles and the reprocessing of the tailings material; Orvana’s ability to optimize its assets to deliver shareholder value; the Company’s ability to optimize productivity at Don Mario and El Valle; estimates of future production, operating costs and capital expenditures; mineral resource and reserve estimates; statements and information regarding future feasibility studies and their results; future transactions; future metal prices; the ability to achieve additional growth and geographic diversification; future financial performance, including the ability to increase cash flow and profits; future financing requirements; and mine development plans. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company as of the date of such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. The estimates and assumptions of the Company contained or incorporated by reference in this information, which may prove to be incorrect, include, but are not limited to, the various assumptions set forth herein and in Orvana’s most recently filed Management’s Discussion & Analysis and Annual Information Form in respect of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal year (the “Company Disclosures”) or as otherwise expressly incorporated herein by reference as well as: there being no significant disruptions affecting operations, whether due to labour disruptions, supply disruptions, power disruptions, damage to equipment or otherwise; permitting, development, operations, expansion and acquisitions at El Valle and Don Mario being consistent with the Company’s current expectations; political developments in any jurisdiction in which the Company operates being consistent with its current expectations; certain price assumptions for gold, copper and silver; prices for key supplies being approximately consistent with current levels; production and cost of sales forecasts meeting expectations; the accuracy of the Company’s current mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates; and labour and materials costs increasing on a basis consistent with Orvana’s current expectations. A variety of inherent risks, uncertainties and factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, affect the operations, performance and results of the Company and its business, and could cause actual events or results to differ materially from estimated or anticipated events or results expressed or implied by forward looking statements. Some of these risks, uncertainties and factors include fluctuations in the price of gold, silver and copper; the need to recalculate estimates of resources based on actual production experience; the failure to achieve production estimates; variations in the grade of ore mined; variations in the cost of operations; the availability of qualified personnel; the Company’s ability to obtain and maintain all necessary regulatory approvals and licenses; the Company’s ability to use cyanide in its mining operations; risks generally associated with mineral exploration and development, including the Company’s ability to continue to operate the El Valle and/or Don Mario and/or ability to resume long-term operations at the Carlés Mine; the Company’s ability to acquire and develop mineral properties and to successfully integrate such acquisitions; the Company’s ability to execute on its strategy; the Company’s ability to obtain financing when required on terms that are acceptable to the Company; challenges to the Company’s interests in its property and mineral rights; current, pending and proposed legislative or regulatory developments or changes in political, social or economic conditions in the countries in which the Company operates; general economic conditions worldwide; and the risks identified in the Company’s disclosures. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company’s forward-looking statements and reference should also be made to the Company’s Disclosures for a description of additional risk factors. Any forward-looking statements made in this information with respect to the anticipated development and exploration of the Company’s mineral projects are intended to provide an overview of management’s expectations with respect to certain future activities of the Company and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current plans, estimates, projections, beliefs and opinions and, except as required by law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements should assumptions related to these plans, estimates, projections, beliefs and opinions change. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Cautionary Notes to Investors – Reserve and Resource Estimates
In accordance with applicable Canadian securities regulatory requirements, all mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates of the Company disclosed in this AIF have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 (as defined below), classified in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining Metallurgy and Petroleum's "CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves Definitions and Guidelines" (the "CIM Guidelines").
Pursuant to the CIM Guidelines, mineral resources have a higher degree of uncertainty than mineral reserves as to their existence as well as their economic and legal feasibility. Inferred mineral resources, when compared with measured or indicated mineral resources, have the least certainty as to their existence, and it cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will be upgraded to an indicated or measured mineral resource as a result of continued exploration. Pursuant to NI 43-101, inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of any economic analysis, including any feasibility study. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of a mineral resource exists, will ever be converted into a mineral reserve, or is or will ever be economically or legally mineable or recovered.

Production and Outlook –
Transition from Cu to Au at Cerro Felix
• Gold Production up 3% compared with Q2,
2018
Copper production guidance is 63% lower vs FY
2017 due to transition to non-copper bearing ore in
Q3 FY 2018
• COC/AISC costs forecast to increase vs FY
2017 due to transition to lower copper grade,
higher strip ratio ore
• Production of Copper will transition to Gold by
the end of 2018

Notes to the El Valle Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource table:
•Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources have been stated as at September 30, 2017.
•Mineral resources are estimated at gold equivalent (“AuEq”) cut-off grades of 3.1 g/t for El Valle oxides, 2.1 g/t for El Valle skarns and 2.6 g/t for Carlés
skarns. AuEq cut-offs are based on recent operating results for recoveries, off-site concentrate costs and on-site operating costs.
•Mineral resources are estimated using a long-term gold price of US$1,350 per ounce; copper price of US$2.75 per pound; and a silver price of US$19.00
per ounce. A US$/Euro exchange rate of 1/1.20 was used.
•A crown pillar of 50 m is excluded from the mineral resource below El Valle open pit.
•A crown pillar of 42 m is excluded from the mineral resource below El Valle East open pit.
•Unrecoverable material in exploited mining areas has been excluded from the mineral resource.
•Inferred mineral resources do not include inferred mineral resources at La Brueva.
•Mineral reserves are estimated using gold equivalent break-even cut-off grades by zone, consisting of 3.7 g/t AuEq for El Valle oxides, 3.2 g/t AuEq for El
Valle skarns, and 2.7 g/t AuEq for Carlés longhole stoping. Gold equivalent cut-offs are based on recent operating results for recoveries, off-site concentrate
costs and on-site operating costs.
•Mineral reserves are estimated using average long-term prices of US$1,250 per ounce gold, US$2.50 per lb copper, and US$17.00 per ounce silver. A
US$/Euro exchange rate of 1/1.20 was used.
•A minimum mining width of 4 m was used.
•Certain incremental material (below break-even cut-off grade) was included in the estimated mineral reserves in order to maintain production levels.
•Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves have been classified in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) “CIM
Definition Standards – For Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves” adopted by the CIM Council in accordance with the requirements of National
Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”), as is required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. In addition, while
the terms “Measured”, “Indicated and “Inferred” Mineral Resources are required pursuant to NI 43-101, the SEC does not recognize such terms. Canadian
standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC, and mineral resource information contained herein is not comparable to similar information
regarding mineral reserves disclosed in accordance with the requirements of the SEC. Investors should 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. In addition, investors are cautioned not to
assume that any part or all of Orvana’s Mineral Resources constitute or will be converted into Reserves.
•Mineral Reserve and Resource tonnage and contained metal have been rounded to reflect accuracy of the estimate, and numbers may not add due to
rounding.
•The scientific and technical information contained in the El Valle reserve and resource estimates has been reviewed and approved (i) in respect of the
estimated mineral reserves by Dave Duncan, Professional Mining Engineer of Canada, and (ii) in respect of the estimated mineral resources, by Guadalupe
Collar Menéndez, European Geologist. Both D. Duncan and G. Collar are employees of OroValle and thus not independent of the company. Both D.
Duncan and G. Collar are Qualified Persons within the meaning of NI 43-101.
•For more details regarding the Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates please refer to the company’s fiscal year 2017 Annual Information Form
(“AIF”) filed on SEDAR.
