Mining in the\n \n Gibraltar\n \n pit is progressing on plan and the lower benches are providing the ore quality we expected. Molybdenum grades have also increased as mining has progressed deeper into the\n \n Gibraltar\n \n pit, resulting in a 60% increase in quarterly molybdenum production.\"\n \n \n A port workers strike in early July caused shipping delays and a build-up of\n \n Gibraltar\n \n copper concentrate inventory. As a result, third quarter sales volumes lagged production by three million pounds, and the excess inventory is expected to be shipped and sold in the fourth quarter.\n \n \n Taseko is providing this third quarter production update in advance of an analyst and investor tour taking place at the Gibraltar Mine later today. Presentation slides to be used during the tour will be available at\n \n https://tasekomines.com/investors/presentations\n \n .\n \n \n \n Stuart McDonald\n \n \n \n President and CEO\n \n \n \n \n No regulatory authority has approved or disapproved of the information contained in this news release.\n \n \n \n \n CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION\n \n \n \n This document contains \"forward-looking statements\" that were based on Taseko's expectations, estimates and projections as of the dates as of which those statements were made.
