MAG Announces Second Quarter 2024 Production from Juanicipio and Increases Grade Guidance

Q2 Highlights

• Expanding throughput: Juanicipio processed 336,593 tonnes of ore in Q2 continuing to build on daily milling rates. Consistent with Q1, all ore was processed at the Juanicipio plant in Q2.
• Continued strong grades: The average silver head grade for the quarter was 498 grams per tonne (“g/t”), surpassing the previous quarter and reaffirming the high-grade nature of the Juanicipio deposit which continues to demonstrate its significant long-term potential.
• Enhanced recovery: Metal recovery rates improved compared to the previous quarter showcasing the ongoing operational enhancements and circuit optimization efforts at Juanicipio.
• Commercial pyrite production: Commenced commercial production of pyrite concentrate during the quarter delivering incremental silver and gold recovery.
• Robust production: Juanicipio exceeded expectations with preliminary production estimates of 5.0 million silver ounces and 9,267 gold ounces.
• Grade guidance increased: With the continued operational outperformance in the first half of 2024, grade guidance has been revised upwards. Silver head grade at Juanicipio is expected to be between 420g/t and 460g/t for 2024 (previously 380g/t to 420g/t). Comprehensive financial and operational results along with a definitive guidance update are expected to be released on August 2, 2024.

Compared to Q2 2023, Juanicipio’s performance significantly improved reflecting the progress made since the commencement of mining ramp-up and plant commissioning in February 2023. Importantly performance in Q2 was achieved solely at the Juanicipio plant, without incremental processing at the Fresnillo and Saucito plants.

“The second quarter continued to validate the strength and quality of our operations at Juanicipio,” said George Paspalas, MAG Silver’s President and CEO. “We achieved solid milling rates, improvements in recovery and exceptional head grades in a very supportive commodity price environment. With the robust foundation of the first half of 2024, increased silver grade guidance and ongoing project optimization we remain confident we are well positioned for continued growth and long-term success.”
