Pan American Silver Corp. has decided to proceed with the expansion of its La Colorada mine in Zacatecas, Mexico, based on the positive results of a recently completed Preliminary Economic Assessment. The PEA demonstrates that the relatively low-risk expansion project has the potential to provide robust after-tax economic returns using a $19 per ounce long-term silver price. The PEA contemplates an increase in silver production from the current level of approximately 4.7 million ounces per year to 7.7 million ounces per year by the end of 2017, for an incremental capital investment of $80 million, the majority of which will be spent over the next 3 years.
