MAG Silver Reports Third Quarter Production From Juanicipio

Total Juanicipio production for the quarter, based on provisional estimates before offtake agreement adjustments, totaled 2,617,146 silver ounces and 5,422 gold ounces (MAG’s attributable 44% interest:  1,151,544 silver ounces and 2,386 gold ounces).  MAG expects to release its full financial and operational results on November 14, 2022.

Mineralized material from Juanicipio continues to be processed through the nearby Saucito and Fresnillo beneficiation plants (100% owned by Fresnillo). Approximately 70% of the tonnes processed in Q3 were processed at the Saucito beneficiation plant which better resembles that of the Juanicipio plant and provides valuable metallurgical information as we look forward to production commencement at Juanicipio. As previously reported to MAG by Fresnillo, power for final commissioning and start of operations should be available by the end of October, and production ramp up will commence in Q4 of this year.

“As we look forward to the commencement of milling operations, Juanicipio continued to demonstrate strong operating performance this quarter with milling at Fresnillo’s processing facilities increasing to over 180,000 tonnes and production of 2.6 million silver ounces bringing year to date silver production to just under 7.4 million ounces. Mining operations are prepared for start-up with a substantial stockpile ahead of the mill, and will ramp up as the complex enters the commissioning phase to commercial production” said George Paspalas, MAG’s President and CEO. “Juanicipio remains well positioned to take its place as a significant and responsible producer of silver.”
