In the Pampalo underground mine, reserves as at 30 November 2017 were 223,215t. This represents an increase of 63,215t since the year-end 2016, despite 161,080t of reserves having been mined out during the current year.
The presented resources and reserves data includes results from the underground drilling campaign carried out in 2017 and targeting areas below the current production levels in Pampalo. Due to the focus of the drilling in the Pampalo deep extension, the resources increased mainly in areas below the current production levels, and there are no notable changes in the resources of other deposits. . In total, approximately 15,900m were drilled in 2017.
