CAPIRE PRODUCTION CENTRE

Capire Processing Plant and Mine

The Capire Production Centre is located 16 kilometres southwest of the Guadalupe Production Center. It is a volcanogenic (“VMS”) base and precious metal deposit. VMS mineralization in the Capire district is predominantly silver-rich with zinc and lead credits.

In Q2 2013, IMPACT announced the commissioning of the Capire open pit mine and completion of construction of the 200-tpd pilot plant. The purpose of the open pit silver test mining and processing operations at Capire was to determine production costs and optimize mining and processing methods in planning for a potentially larger operation in the future. The work performed increased the Company’s knowledge about the metallurgy of minerals in both districts and has helped define the operating costs at Capire. Most of this test work was completed; however, in light of lower silver prices, Mexican mining tax changes, hauling costs and low overall silver grade being mined at Capire, the Company recognized that the open pit test mining operation was not economical at that time. In February 2014, after processing approximately 33,000 tonnes of material, the open pit operations were suspended.

After the shutdown, the Capire plant was reconfigured as a bulk test processing facility for gold and copper mineralization from the Carlos Pacheco South Zone in the Noche Buena Mine. The results of this test work at Capire and later at the Guadalupe mill, demonstrated good gold recoveries from Carlos Pacheco South mineral when mixed with Zacualpan silver mineral.
