Project Overview
The Juanicipio Mine (“Juanicipio”) is a high-grade silver-gold-zinc-lead epithermal vein system on the Fresnillo Silver Trend in Mexico, the world’s premier silver mining belt.
MAG’s 4,000 tonnes per day Juanicipio Mine (44%) is operated by Fresnillo Plc (56%) and located approximately 6 km west of the mining city of Fresnillo.
In addition to mining and processing operations, an expanded exploration program is in place targeting multiple highly prospective targets.
