Chief Executive Officer Eduardo Landin comments: ‘With our Inmaculada mine providing a solid and sustainable base for the long-term, we are excited by the prospect of first production in the next few months from our new Mara Rosa mine in Brazil and also by the potential at the new Royropata deposit in southern Peru. I believe that, when set alongside a disciplined approach to capital allocation and our [environmental, social and governance] focus, the clear strategy set out today will deliver strong shareholder returns in the near future.’
