McEwen Mining Inc. (NYSE: MUX) (TSX: MUX) today provided results of the updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (the “2023 PEA”) on the Los Azules Copper Project in San Juan Argentina (the “project”). The project is 100% owned by McEwen Copper Inc., which is 52% owned by McEwen Mining. According to the announcement, the PEA includes an updated independent mineral resource estimate, which increased to 10.9 billion (“B”) lbs. copper (“Cu”) (indicated, grade 0.40% ) and 26.7 B lbs. Cu (inferred, grade 0.31% ). Among the base highlights, the company reported total Cu recoverable to cathode of 8.68 billion lbs. (3.94 million tonnes), based on the life-of-mine (“LOM”) extraction of mineralized material containing approximately 11.90 billion lbs. of total Cu (5.40 million tonnes), and average copper recovery of 72.8%. The study is preliminary in nature and includes 26% inferred mineral resources in the conceptual mine plan. There is no certainty that the estimates in the PEA will be realized.
