Excellon Closes Glencore Offtake and Financing

 

 

 

 

 

Excellon Resources Inc. (TSX-V: EXN) (OTC Pink: EXNRF) (FSE: E4X2) is pleased to announce the closing of its offtake and financing agreement with subsidiaries of Glencore plc to support the restart of the past-producing Mallay Silver Mine in Peru.

 

Highlights:

  • Facility Size: Up to US$7.5 million in secured funding, structured as a Pre-Export Finance loan, with an initial drawdown amount of up to US$5.0 million and an optional second amount of US$2.5 million available until March 2026.
  • Interest Rate: SOFR + 5%.
  • Repayment Terms: Six months grace period following initial drawdown, with monthly prepayment through to 2027.
  • Security: Loan secured against concentrates sales and other various guarantees.

 

The proceeds of the Facility will be used to fund the restart of the Mallay Mine, including underground development, mill upgrades and working capital to achieve commercial production.

 

Shawn Howarth, President and CEO, commented, “The closing of our agreement with Glencore marks a major milestone in our journey to return Excellon to silver production. With additional and flexible funding now secured, we continue to execute on our restart plan at Mallay — a project with exceptional infrastructure and near-term cash flow potential.”

 

The associated concentrates offtake agreement grants Glencore the right to purchase 100% of the Mallay Mine’s zinc and lead concentrates (containing silver by-product). This long-term commitment provides a guaranteed purchaser for Mallay’s output and provides Excellon with exposure to future upside on silver and other metals prices.
