Proven History, Positioned for Restart
Mining at Madre Sierra dates back to the late 19th century, transitioning from molybdenum production to polymetallic, silver-rich veins. Decades of development established substantial underground workings and supporting infrastructure.
Pilot operations between 2019 and 2021 confirmed grade continuity and operational viability. With permits in place, Madre Sierra is positioned for a near-term restart and continued value creation across a broader land package with multiple mineralized zones and exploration upside.
