Q1 2025 Production Overview
Q1 2025 Mine Operations
Consolidated silver production was 1,205,793 ounces in Q1 2025, in line with plan and 17% lower than Q1 2024. Lower silver production was driven by 24% lower silver production at the Guanaceví mine, partially offset by 53% higher silver production at the Bolañitos mine compared to the same quarter in 2024. Consolidated gold production was 8,338 ounces in Q1 2025, 18% lower than Q1 2024 due to 28% lower gold production at the Bolañitos mine, and 3% lower gold production at the Guanaceví mine.
In Q1 2025, Guanaceví throughput was 11% lower than Q1 2024 and silver and gold grades were 13% lower and 4% higher, respectively, which drove the 24% lower silver and 3% lower gold output. Guanaceví throughput and grades were in line with plan. Supplies of local third-party feed continued to supplement mine production, amounting to 18% of quarterly throughput.
Bolañitos Q1 2025 throughput was in line with throughput in Q1 2024, combined with 60% higher silver grades offset by 26% lower gold grades. Silver production was 53% higher than the same period in 2024, while gold production was 28% lower. Throughput and silver grades were consistent with plan, while gold grades were slightly lower than plan. The grade variation is due to mining from different locations in the ore body.
