Gold Resource Corporation

Good morning and welcome to the Gold Resources Corporation Third Quarter 2022 Financial and Operating Results Conference Call. At this time, all participants are in a listen-only mode. Following management's representation, there will be a question and answer session open to financial analysts only. Instructions will be provided at that time for you to queue up for questions. If anyone has any difficulties hearing the conference, please press start followed by zero for operator assistance at any time. I would like to remind everyone that this conference call is being recorded today, November 1, 2022, at 10 o'clock Eastern Time. I will now turn the conference over to Kim Perry, Gold Resource Corporation Chief Financial Officer. Ms. Perry, you may proceed.

Thank you, Sergio, and good morning to everyone. On behalf of Gold Resource Team, I would like to welcome you to our conference call covering our Q3 2022 results. Before we begin the call, there are a couple of housekeeping matters I would like to address. Please note that certain statements to be made today are forward-looking in nature, and as such, are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, as described in our annual report on Form 10-K and other SEC filings. Joining me on the call today is Alan Palmier, our President and CEO, and Alberto Reyes, our Chief Operating Officer. Following Alan, Alberto, and my prepared remarks, we will be available to answer questions. This conference call is being webcast. For those of you joining us on our webcast can download a PDF of the conference slides. The event will also be available for replay on our website later today. Yesterday's news release issued following the close of the market and the accompanying financial statements in MD&A contained on our Form 10-Q have been filed with the SEC on EDGAR and are also available on our website at www.goldresourcecorp.com. Please note that all amounts mentioned in this call are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated. I will now turn the call over to Alan.

Thank you, Kim. Good morning, everyone. I'd like to thank everyone for taking the time to join us on this call. Implementing safety programs has been our top priority in 2021 and 2022. During the third quarter, we took additional measures at DDGM to address ground support and ventilation issues. The disciplined approach had a temporary impact on production volumes, mine development and exploration. With that said, we are still on track to meet 2022 production and cost guidance. We will always put our people and safety first at the temporary cost of production. I'd like to point out a few achievements related to the Back 40 project before handing a call over to Alberta to provide an update on our Don David Gold operations. We will then proceed with remarks from Kim on our Q1 financial results. Lastly, we'll provide a few closing remarks and then we will take questions from participants. In Michigan, we continue to progress the back 40 feasibility study. We had a couple of opportunities to engage with the local community leaders, including tribal leaders, to provide initial site layout and improvements made to the project. Work on metallurgy and the economic model will continue into 2023. Permit applications will follow after releasing the final feasibility study. I'll now pass the presentation over to Alberto to discuss Don David Gold's operational results.
