*Buenaventura provided revised 2020 guidance on October 20, 2020.

FY2020 Comments

  • Tambomayo:

    2020 silver and zinc production in line with revised 2020 guidance, as announced in the third quarter 2020.

    2020 lead production was slightly above revised 2020 guidance.

    2020 gold production was below revised 2020 guidance due to inventory adjustments after lower-than-expected gold recoveries within the flotation-cyanidation circuit.
  • Orcopampa:

    2020 gold production was in line with revised guidance.
  • Coimolache:

    2020 gold production was in line with revised guidance.
  • La Zanja:

    2020 gold production was slightly above revised guidance.
  • Julcani:

    2020 silver production was slightly above revised guidance.
  • Uchucchacua:

    2020 silver, lead and zinc production was in line with revised guidance. The Company's primary operational focus for this operation during the fourth quarter was on the ramp-up of mine development and exploration which was adversely affected by a reduced workforce during prior quarters in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • El Brocal:

    Tajo Norte's production exceeded revised 2020 guidance, due to access to high grade areas resulting from accelerated stripping.

    Marcapunta's production was below revised 2020 guidance, mainly due to limited availability of ore transportation vehicles.
