This document includes statements that are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements”. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes”, “estimates”, “plans”, “projects”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “intends”, “may”, “will”, or “should” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans, objectives, goals, future events or intentions. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They appear in a number of places throughout this document and include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Fresnillo Group’s intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, the Fresnillo Group’s results of operations, financial position, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies and the silver and gold industries. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and the actual results of the Fresnillo Group’s operations, financial position and liquidity, and the development of the markets and the industry in which the Fresnillo Group

  • The plant will froth float pyrite concentrates that will be leached in a 2,000 tpd

dynamic leaching plant and Merrill Crowe plant to produce precipitates.

  • First stage completed on time: commissioned the leaching plant at Saucito in

2Q18, following a US$ 50.3 million investment.

  • Second stage continues: Construction of the flotation plant at Fresnillo on track

with a US$ 7.3 million investment as of June 30 2018. US$ 46.5 million remains to be invested.

  • This project will improve overall recoveries of gold and silver by processing

historical and ongoing tailings from the Fresnillo and Saucito mines.

  • Nameplate capacity of 3,000 tpd – Currently operating at c. 3,600 tpd
  • Expected lower ore grade due to less availability of the higher silver grade areas
  • Lower volume of ore processed as a result of the low water availability
  • Nameplate capacity of 6,000 tpd – Currently operating at 6,400 tpd
  • Extraction of ore from lower grade areas & processing ore from the development stockpile due to

low water availability

  • Resulted in temporarily deviating from original production plan
  • Initiatives in place to collect process water now ensure the plant will run at full capacity in 2H18 and going forward
  • Construction of wells for water collection and construction of the water reservoir
  • Continue preparation and development of the mine
