Gold Resource Corporation Declares Year-End Special Dividend

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO--(Marketwired - Nov 28, 2016) - Gold Resource Corporation (NYSE MKT: GORO) (the "Company") announced today that its Board of Directors declared a special year-end dividend of one cent ($0.01) per common share payable on December 23, 2016 to shareholders of record as of December 12, 2016. Gold Resource Corporation is a gold and silver producer, developer and explorer with operations in Oaxaca, Mexico and Nevada, USA. 

This year-end special dividend is separate from and in addition to the Company's "instituted" dividend which is set at $0.02 per common share per year and distributed on a monthly basis. The Board of Directors approved the year-end special dividend due to the solid financial performance of the Company during the 2016 calendar year. The instituted monthly dividend remains unchanged. 

"I am very pleased that the Board of Directors continues to reward shareholders of Gold Resource Corporation with dividends, including this year-end special distribution which is equivalent to fifty percent of our instituted 2016 annual dividend," stated Mr. Jason Reid, CEO and President of Gold Resource Corporation. "We remain optimistic that the return of the precious metal bull market in 2016 will continue into 2017 and look forward to potential future dividends, both instituted and special. Earnings are opinion while cash is fact and we hope all our shareholders appreciate additional cash in their bank accounts as we close out the 2016 year."

The Company has returned over $108 million to shareholders in monthly dividends since commercial production commenced July 1, 2010, and offers shareholders the option to convert their cash dividends into physical .999 fine gold and silver and take delivery. For more information on Gold Resource Corporation's physical dividend program, visit the Company website at http://goldresourcecorp.com/gold-silver-dividends.php.
