London-listed Fresnillo has met its 2022 guidance, producing 53.7-million ounces of silver and 635 900 oz of gold from its mines in Mexico. Silver production was slightly above 2021’s output, with production from the Juanicipio mine and increased volumes of ore processed at Fresnillo, both in the Zacatecas region, offset by the lower ore grade at the Chihuahua/Durango border-based San Julián mine.
