A preliminary feasibility study (‘PFS’) published in June 2024 highlights the strong potential of the flagship Silver Sand project, which is expected to deliver 12 million ounces of silver annually over a 13-year mine life… The Carangas Project’s preliminary economic assessment (‘PEA’), released in September 2024, outlines a low-cost open-pit mine that targets only the upper silver-lead-zinc zone to produce 6.6 million ounces of silver annually over a 16-year mine life… Together, these projects position New Pacific to potentially produce nearly 19 million ounces of silver per year, placing it in the upper ranks of primary silver producers, once both projects enter production.”
