Veta Negra Mine

• The Veta Negra mine is a small open pit operation which commenced production in September 2019. It is located four kilometres northwest of the Guadalupe mill. The mine contributes a silver-rich feed to the Guadalupe mill from a near surface bulk tonnage zone. Work in progress is focused on determining the full production potential of this zone. The Veta Negra vein system was mined in the 1970’s and 1980’s by a previous operator from open pit and underground.  North-northwest trending parallel, near surface veins over a width averaging 14 metres justified open pit mining methods and are being explored to determine the potential of expanding the open pit.  Historic and recent sampling has shown vein system continuity over a strike length of 650 meters.
