"In 2024, we demonstrated that responsible mining goes hand-in-hand with financial and operational success, achieving our second-highest silver production while maintaining high environmental standards. Our sustainability work, from wildlife protection and environmental monitoring to supporting local communities, is essential to producing the silver that the world needs to power our future. With unwavering commitment to excellence and guided by our values, we continue to create long-term value for all our stakeholders."

  • Over $1 billion direct economic impact to local communities
  • Over 40 thousand hours of safety & health training hours
  • Women comprise 38% of our Board of Directors
  • 38% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 GHG emissions from our 2019 baseline
