Excellon Resources CEO Shawn Howarth joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's latest developments, including the acquisition of a past-producing silver mine in Peru, Mallay. Previously operated by Buenaventura between 2012 and 2018, the mine has benefited from an estimated $115 million investment in infrastructure and features 50 km of underground development. Howarth highlighted that the mine is fully permitted for restart, with existing tailings capacity and an initial JORC-compliant mineral resource. Excellon plans to upgrade this to a 43-101 resource following the transaction's closure, anticipated in early-to-mid 2025. The company aims to restart operations within three to six months, targeting silver production as early as Q3 or Q4 2025. In addition to its Peruvian operations, Howarth discussed exploration plans for the Kilgore Project in Idaho. He noted that cash flow from the Peruvian mine will help fund further development, particularly in Idaho, where Excellon is investigating deeper high-grade mineralization. Howarth also pointed out that Idaho’s government is actively working to streamline resource development processes, providing a favorable environment for the company’s exploration efforts. Looking ahead, Howarth reaffirmed Excellon’s focus on leveraging its operational expertise to develop assets efficiently and explore potential expansion in the silver sector. #proactiveinvestors #tsx #exn #shawnhowarth #mining #mallaysilverming SilverMining #MiningStocks #ShawnHowarth #PeruMining #IdahoMining #PreciousMetals #SilverProduction #MiningInvestment #ProactiveInvestors
