Gran Colombia Gold Corp. (TSX: GCM; OTCQX: TPRFF) announced today
that it has published its inaugural ESG report entitled
“2020 Sustainability Report” which is available on
its website at www.grancolombiagold.com.
Lombardo Paredes, Chief Executive Officer of
Gran Colombia, said, “As we reflect on 2020 in our inaugural
Corporate Sustainability Report, I feel immense pride and gratitude
when thinking about our journey and all that we have achieved in
our 10 years of operating in the region of Antioquia, Colombia.
With 90% of our workforce from the region and by generating a
little over 4,000 jobs, we have become tied to the community. Our
community investments are focused on improving the lives of our
workers, their families and local suppliers, as well as others who
are not affiliated with the mine. Our COVID-19 response plans,
investments in education and healthcare, technical skills training,
environmental initiatives and support for the economic empowerment
of women are all examples of our commitment toward responsible
mining and the economic well-being of our employees and the
communities in which we operate.”

Gran Colombia produced 17,936 ounces of gold and
18,569 ounces of silver at Segovia in May 2021 bringing the total

its Maria Dama plant, representing a daily processing rate of 1,584
tonnes per day (“tpd”), and head grades averaged 12.63 g/t in the
month. This brings the daily processing rate for the first five

grade of 12.72 g/t compared with 1,242 tpd at an average head grade
of 14.39 g/t in the first five months of 2020.
