  • Uchucchacua:



    3Q21 silver, lead and zinc production below expectations with decreased production due to suspended operations resulting from an illegal road blockade by members of the local community which began on September 13, 2021.



    Decreased 2021 silver production will be partially offset for the remainder of the year by increased production by other mining units.
