Arturo Préstamo, Executive Chairman and Interim CEO of Santacruz, commented, “The Company had a solid quarter in the face of a challenging commodity price environment.” Mr. Préstamo continued, “While we continue to identify and implement efficiencies at all our assets, it is important to highlight the significant changes that were made at the Zimapan mine in Mexico during the quarter. By streamlining the management team and shifting to more owner-operated mining, we were able to increase productivity and decrease costs, and expect to continue to see the benefits from these changes in the next quarter.”

Prime Chief Executive Officer Daniel Kunz commented, “We are pleased to announce our graduation to the main board of the Toronto Stock Exchange, a significant milestone in the evolution of Prime Mining Corp.

We effectively doubled the Los Reyes resource as outlined in our May 2, 2023 Technical Report, released our inaugural Sustainability Report, are on track to complete some 60,000 metres of post-resource drilling, strengthened our board and management team, and increased our cash position through an early warrant exercise.”

Paddy Nicol, CEO of Orogen, commented: “Orogen’s profit primarily resulted from record royalty revenue from the Ermitaño gold-silver Mine where increased production rates, strong gold grades and improvement in recoveries were achieved. Prospect generation remains profitable and we continue to obtain payments and transact on projects that organically grow our royalty portfolio. In addition, our positive cashflow from operations continues to strengthen our balance sheet and allows us to take advantage of counter cyclical opportunities in the current market.”
