TORONTO , July 8, 2021 –Dundee Precious Metals Inc. (TSX: DPM)(“DPM” or “the Company”) announced strong preliminary production results from both of its mines and the smelter for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

“We achieved a new record for gold production in the second quarter as a result of strong performance from our mining operations,” said David Rae, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our strong gold production, combined with solid smelter performance in Q2, positions us well to achieve our 2021 guidance at each of our operations.”

(1) As disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, issued on May 5, 2021 and available at www.sedar.com and at www.dundeeprecious.com

Chelopech produced 52,600 ounces of gold and 10.0 million pounds of copper during the second quarter. Gold production, which increased significantly compared with the first quarter, was higher than expected as a result of mining higher grade zones and improved recoveries. Payable metals in concentrate sold for Chelopech also increased during the quarter, reflecting higher overall production, partially offset by the timing of pyrite concentrate shipments related to higher than anticipated production in the second half of June.

Ada Tepe continued to deliver strong gold production, producing 32,500 gold ounces in the second quarter, which was in line with the mine plan.

The Tsumeb smelter delivered solid performance during the second quarter, processing 59,600 tonnes of complex concentrate, an increase compared with the first quarter following the completion of the planned Ausmelt furnace maintenance in March.

With strong performance in the first half of the year, the Company is on track to meet its previously issued guidance for 2021 at each of its operations.
