“Our Florida Canyon mine in Nevada and our Mexican mines had a solid year, surpassing the top end of production guidance on a combined basis by 9%. Our newest mine, Magino, met target start date of commissioning the mill in mid-May, however, ramp up of the mine and mill took longer than anticipated, resulting in the Company missing consolidated production guidance by a small margin.”

Fortuna Silver Mines Inc. reports production results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023 from its five operating mines in Latin America and West Africa.

Vizsla Silver Corp. is pleased to announce its intention to spin out the shares of Vizsla Royalties Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vizsla Silver, to the Company’s shareholders. Vizsla Royalties currently holds, indirectly, a net smelter royalty on any potential future mineral production at Vizsla Silver’s flagship, 100% owned Panuco silver-gold project located in Sinaloa, Mexico.

CEO Vikas Ranjan commented: “We believe that 2024 will be a key year for Vortex, as the company will be advancing towards permitting both VMS projects in Mexico while advancing the highly prospective brownfield Illapel project in Chile. The Illapel project is adjacent to the Rio 27 mine, which has processed approximately 400,000 tonnes of ore at an average grade of 1.39% copper. Our senior geologist John Larson has identified highly prospective drill targets adjacent to and along the strike from the Rio 27 mine.”

“Our 2023 production results reflect the significant contribution from the assets we acquired through the Yamana transaction, and are broadly in line with our expectations,” said Michael Steinmann, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Jody Kuzenko, President and CEO of Torex, stated: “2024 will be a transformational year for Torex as we wind down the ELG Open Pits, continue steady production from ELG Underground, commence stope mining at Media Luna, complete an internal economic study on developing EPO, and further bolster our ongoing drilling success, all while running one of the safest operations in the industry. With 2024 expected to be the final year of significant investment in the Media Luna Project, Torex is well positioned to return to positive free cash flow in 2025.”
