Project Controls Manager

La Colorada Skarn (LCS) is a large, silver-bearing polymetallic deposit discovered by PAAS in 2018 through brownfield exploration near the La Colorada Vein Mine in Zacatecas, Mexico.

The site is accessible by combination of air and road transportation and is situated approximately 125 km southeast of the Durango Airport, and 850 km north-west of Mexico City. The mine is an operational mine with existing infrastructure and facilities.

The LCS Project PEA (completed in 2023) proposes to develop a mine that uses a sublevel cave (SLC) mining method at 50,000 tpd. The development phase is anticipated to last four years after full permit approval and project sanction and approval to proceed into execution. Future expansion and better definition of mineralization could complement and expand the initial SLC minable inventory and mining method to other mining methods. The Skarn Project design will leverage the existing infrastructure at the La Colorada Property whenever feasible. The new facilities, including new processing and tailings storage facilities will be designed to focus on automation, electrification, energy efficiency, and renewable energy sources to reduce the carbon footprint. Please refer to the Pan-American-Silver-La-Colorada-NI-43-101-2024 for further information.

PAAS issued an RFP for a Prefeasibility Study in November 2024, and the study activities anticipated to initiate in early Q2 2025.
