Torex plans to release its third quarter
financial and operational results after market close on Wednesday,
November 9, 2022, followed the next morning by a conference call.
Gold grades mined and gold grades processed will be reported with
the quarterly results. Due to a higher portion of September
production and sales occurring late in the month, the realized gold
price is expected to be modestly below the average benchmark price
for the quarter.
Jody Kuzenko, President & CEO of Torex,
stated:
“We delivered another quarter of solid
operational results with gold production of 122,200 ounces, driven
largely by excellent mill performance with throughput averaging
more than 13,000 tonnes per day (“tpd”), record-setting gold
recoveries of close to 90%, and sustained elevated underground
mining rates at 1,550 tpd. With 357,830 ounces of gold produced
year to date, we are well on track to deliver towards the upper end
of 2022 production guidance, high end of total cash cost guidance
and mid-point of all-in sustaining cost guidance.
“At ELG Underground, we completed the Portal #3
ramp to the existing reserve at depth and started exploration
drilling. In addition, raise boring began with a view to completing
ore pass construction in Q1 2023 to connect the upper levels to
this new area – both of which are key to further optimizing and
extending ELG Underground. In the open pit, waste stripping was
prioritized in the quarter.
“Development activities at Media Luna continue
to ramp-up with the procurement phase well underway and long lead
earthworks progressing to plan. During the quarter, purchase orders
were executed for the Guajes conveyor, regrind mills, and flotation
cells. At the end of September, the Guajes Tunnel advanced 2,660
metres and South Portal Lower advanced 1,055 metres. Breakthrough
of the Guajes Tunnel on the south side of the Balsas River remains
on track with the Feasibility Study schedule of Q1 2024.
“Overall, we are well positioned to close out
2022 exactly as we planned, delivering on full year guidance for
the fourth year in a row and carrying strong momentum on operations
and project execution into 2023.”
