Guanajuato Silver Produces Document 836,375 AgEq Ounces in This fall

Sees 19% This fall Manufacturing Improve Over Q3

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 26, 2023 / Guanajuato Silver Firm Ltd. (the “Firm” or “GSilver“) (TSXV:GSVR)(AQUIS:GSVR)(OTCQX:GSVRF) is happy to announce consolidated manufacturing outcomes for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

This fall 2022 Manufacturing Highlights

• Document manufacturing in the course of the quarter of 836,375 silver-equivalent (“AgEq“) ounces derived from 401,244 ounces of silver, 3,907 ounces of gold, 811,492 kilos of lead and 1,261,554 kilos of zinc. Silver-equivalent manufacturing for all of 2022 totaled 2.15 million ounces.

• Common silver recoveries of 86.8% proceed to surpass historic recoveries.

• The dry stack tailings challenge at El Cubo has been initiated and superior engineering has been accomplished; the Firm is awaiting regulatory approval to start building of a dry stack facility that might enhance tailings capability at El Cubo from 2.5 years to roughly 15 years of extra tailings storage.

• A brand new gravity circuit at El Cubo was accomplished in the course of the quarter with the target of recovering gold and silver from the Mastrantos IV historic tailings pond (See GSilver information launch dated June 22, 2022 – GSilver Discovers High-Grade Historical Tailings Material at El Cubo Assays 727 GPT AgEq Over 1.2m and 711 GPT AgEq Over 1.0m). The brand new gravity circuit is predicted to start business operations in Q1, 2023.

• Set up of a brand new exhaust fan at El Cubo with the capability to flow into 250 cubic ft per minute has been accomplished; air flow on the mine has been considerably improved.

• Substantial value reductions had been realized in the course of the quarter by way of the acquisition of compressors and a completely owned scoop tram fleet; additional financial savings had been realized because the Firm decreased the full variety of outdoors contractors it makes use of in its mining operations.

• All lately acquired mining property at the moment are in manufacturing; all property acquired by way of the MMR transaction (San Ignacio, VMC and Topia) in August 2022 at the moment are absolutely operational. In direction of the tip of the quarter, the Cata mill at VMC was recommissioned and is at the moment processing mineralized materials from San Ignacio and the Los Pozos mine at VMC; the Topia mine in Durango didn’t lose a single day of manufacturing in the course of the MMR possession handover.

“We ended 2022 with report manufacturing of valuable metals from 5 mines and three processing services,” mentioned Chairman & CEO, James Anderson. “Capital investments made throughout This fall are already producing improved efficiencies and our operations workforce continues to search for alternatives to reinforce revenue margins as we try to proceed our pattern of quarterly will increase in silver manufacturing throughout all of our producing property.”

1. Silver equivalents are calculated utilizing an 89.97:1 (Ag/Au), 0.05:1 (Ag/Pb) and 0.08:1 (Ag/Zn) ratio for This fall and Q3 2022; 83.4:1 (Ag/Au) ratio for Q2 2022; and 80:1 (Ag/Au) ratio for Q1 2022.

This fall 2022 Mine Operations Proceed Development of Quarter over Quarter Manufacturing Will increase
Consolidated silver manufacturing elevated 22% to 401,244 ounces in This fall 2022 in comparison with Q3 2022; equally, consolidated gold manufacturing elevated by 21% to three,907 ounces over the identical interval. Throughout the fourth quarter, mineralized materials from San Ignacio was despatched to the El Cubo mill for processing; in 2023 the Firm expects to course of all mineralized materials from San Ignacio on the lately reactivated Cata mill at VMC. (See GSilver information launch dated January 17, 2023 – “Guanajuato Silver Restarts the Cata Mill at the Valenciana Mines Complex“)
