Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. is pleased to announce fourth quarter 2014 production of 255,487 silver equivalent ounces from the Company’s Rosario Mine in San Luis Potosi, Mexico. This production represents a 32.8% quarter over quarter increase as compared with Q3 2014 silver equivalent ounces. The full calendar year of production at the Rosario Mine for 2014 resulted in 776,787 silver equivalent ounces.

The Company has advanced the development of the “North Nose” area of the Project. It is expected that this will increase gold production in 2015/2016. While anticipated, this work was not included in the previously approved capital expenditures and will result in an increase of estimated capital expenditures in the amount of $22 million. The total Capex Estimate for the Project is now at $800 million, representing an increase of approximately $53 million from the previously approved $725 million capex budget. In addition to the $22 million increased capital expenditures related to the “North Nose” area of the Project, the Capex Estimate also includes approximately $47 million of contingency and accounts for the escalation of costs compared to the 2012 feasibility estimates. The Project remains fully funded and a $60 million second draw on the previously announced project finance facility was received on January 28th.

The London-listed Mexican miner’s silver production climbed by 15.5 per cent to 12.3m ounces, ahead of its own guidance as it processed more ore at its Saucito mine and increased production at its Silverstream mine.
