Endeavour Silver Corp. reported steady progress at its Terronera mine in Jalisco, Mexico, with a total of 57,080 tonnes milled in July, averaging 1,841 tonnes per day (tpd). Following the completion of the commissioning phase, throughput has rapidly increased, with current milling rates ranging between 1,900 and 2,000 tpd. This indicates strong operational momentum for the new asset.
Adjustments to improve recoveries are ongoing in the grinding and flotation circuits. Since July 16, silver and gold recoveries have averaged 71% and 67%, respectively, while processing lower-grade material. The company plans to introduce higher-grade material soon, which is expected to directly enhance these recovery figures.
As higher recoveries are achieved, the operational focus will shift to further increasing the milling rate to sustain the designed throughput of 2,000 tpd. This progress positions Terronera to move steadily towards its targeted sustainable production levels and, ultimately, commercial production, which is a key driver for Endeavour's future growth.
