“2019 was a transformative year for Pan American and one of the most important in our 25-year history. We completed the Tahoe transaction and successfully integrated the new assets into our portfolio, capturing $25 to $30 million in annual G&A synergies. Pan American is now a much larger, stronger and more profitable company,” said Michael Steinmann, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pan American.

Rob McEwen, Chairman and Chief Owner commented: “2019 was a year of exploration highs overshadowed by production lows. After issuing two disappointing reductions in production guidance we finally achieved our guidance. The problems that plagued us in 2019 were largely unique events that will not be reoccurring. Exploration will continue to be a key focus at Stock West, Grey Fox, Black Fox and Gold Bar, where we see the potential to create the greatest near-term value.”

The data set has been thoroughly reviewed and in early December was forwarded to Stantec Consulting Ltd., which is presently working towards a new resource estimate within the coming weeks.

Augmented reality is quickly becoming one of the must-have technologies for major industries, including healthcare, government, military, automobiles, and education. It’s even transforming the mining industry with regards to improving mine productivity, reducing maintenance costs, protecting miners, providing site tours of mines, and training in real-world environments, notes Mining Technology.
