Silver X Provides Q4 and Half Year 2022 Production Results and Declares Commercial Production

19.01.2023  |  Accesswire

VANCOUVER, January 19, 2023 - Silver X Mining Corp. (TSXV:AGX)(OTCQB:AGXPF)(F:WPZ) ("Silver X" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce its operating results for the fourth quarter ("Q4") of 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2022 from the Tangana mining unit ("Tangana") at the Company's Nueva Recuperada property (the "Project") in Peru and declares commercial production effective January 2023.

H2 2022 Production highlights (compared to 2021)

  • Half year silver equivalent(1) (AgEq) head grade of 422 AgEq g/t in the second half of 2022 ("H2")
  • Processed 181% more AgEq ounces in H2 2022 than H2 2021, 874,662 oz AgEq versus 311,249 oz AgEq
  • Produced 159% more AgEq ounces in the H2 2022 than H2 2021, 673,458 oz AgEq versus 260,153 oz AgEq

Q4 2022 Production highlights (compared to Q4 2021)

  • Quarterly AgEq (1) head grade of 367 g/t AgEq in Q4 2021
  • Processed 114% more AgEq ounces in the Q4 2022 than Q4 2021, 393,622 oz AgEq versus 184,332 oz AgEq
  • Produced 101% more AgEq ounces in Q4 2022 than Q4 2021, 302,386 oz AgEq versus 150,440 oz AgEq
  • Continued quarter over quarter improvements in tonnes mined and processed

"We are pleased with our strong finish to 2022 and excited to commence commercial production at the Project in 2023" said José Garcia CEO of Silver X. "2022 was a transformational year as we delivered quarter over quarter increase in production and mining. Continued exploration at the Project is poised to provide consistent production and cash flow in the coming year. We look forward to continuing building value for all our stakeholders."

Commercial Production

The declaration of commercial production at the Project comes after a successful commissioning period over the year 2022 which included the ramp up of mining and processing activities at the Project to sustainable metal throughput levels. All key mill upgrades and mine development works completed to date have demonstrated its ability to sustain ongoing production levels as the Tangana mine continues to develop and grow its production. The Company will continue to seek opportunities to further optimize the throughput and availabilities to achieve and ultimately exceed the Mine's current 720 tonne per day design nameplate capacity.

Continuing project development is providing access to new faces with plant head grade expected to stabilize in the coming months. However, grade variation will likely continue in the short term given the geological nature of the Tangana system. The H2 2022 head grade of 422 g/t AgEq is in line with internal mine planning and updated guidance will be available shortly.

Recent demonstrations in Peru have remained localized in nature however the Recuperada operation has been impacted by minor logistical disruptions. The Recuperada plant has been operating at a low through put to start 2023 but is expected to return to full capacity by the third week of January. Nueva Recuperada and other assets throughout the country, remain safe and secure.

Production Results

Notes:
Production data is prepared on a Q4 2022 vs Q4 2021 and H2 2022 vs H2 2021 basis as the Company began operations in June 2021.
(1) AgEq ounces produced were calculated based on all metals produced using the average sales prices of each metal for each month during the period. Revenues from concentrate sales does not consider metallurgical recoveries in the calculations as the metal recoveries are built into the sales amounts.

Cautionary Note regarding Production without Mineral Reserves

The decision to commence production at the Nueva Recuperada Project and the Company's ongoing mining operations as referenced herein (the "Production Decision and Operations") are based on economic models prepared by the Company in conjunction with management's knowledge of the property and the existing estimate of inferred mineral resources on the property. The Production Decision and Operations are not based on a preliminary economic assessment, a pre-feasibility study or a feasibility study of mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability. Accordingly, there is increased uncertainty and economic and technical risks of failure associated with the Production Decision and Operations, in particular: the risk that mineral grades will be lower than expected; the risk that additional construction or ongoing mining operations are more difficult or more expensive than expected; and production and economic variables may vary considerably, due to the absence of a detailed economic and technical analysis in accordance with NI 43-101.
