Pan American Silver Corp. today announced that it has achieved important milestones at its two mine expansion projects currently underway in Mexico. At the Company’s La Colorada mine, the new 618-metre deep shaft was commissioned in fully automatic mode in early September, ahead of schedule. The shaft was constructed with a world-class safety performance of zero lost-time accidents incurred and using industry-leading raise boring and shaft automation technologies. The work remaining to complete the La Colorada expansion project includes a new filter plant, power line and underground development. The project is now expected to be completed approximately 5 to 10 percent under budget.

Trabajadores mineros son blanco continuo de la delincuencia, en lo que va del año las agresiones se multiplicaron. Autoridades de gobierno y directivos de las corporaciones, minimizan los hechos aunque trasciende que en reuniones privadas reconocen estar rebasados por la actividad de los delincuentes.

El gobernador Héctor Astudillo Flores afirmó que Raybel Jacobo de Almonte, El Tequilero, líder de una banda delictiva que opera en la región de Tierra Caliente, es el responsable del secuestro de trabajadores y del robo a la minera Beneficiadora de Minerales Temixco, localizada en Arcelia.

“With this permit in place, and a seasoned operator in H Morgan & Co. (Chester Millar), we now have the ability to rapidly advance the Santana project into production,” said Craig Schneider, Corex’s President and CEO.
