Our Business Model
Business Model and Strategy
*Click image to view Business Model in detail.
Our business model spans the full mining value chain from exploration, development and construction, to mining operations, supported by strategic resources and relationships essential to the effective execution of the business.
We seek to create sustained value for stakeholders across precious metals cycles, focusing on high potential silver and gold projects that can be developed into low-cost, world-class mines.
Our value creation strategy is intrinsically linked to our business model. At the heart of our business is gold and silver mining.
We generate revenue by selling the metals contained in the ore we extract and process;
to generate sustainable growth and ensure our longevity, we rely on a business model that
creates value for all our stakeholders.
The Four Strategic Pillars of our Business Model
Operate: Maximise the potential of existing operations while maintaining position as a leading low cost producer
Develop: Deliver profitable growth by advancing projects towards commissioning, while optimising cash flow and returns
Explore: Ensure business continuity and growth by replenishing depleted reserves and maintaining growth pipeline
Sustainability: Uphold our licence to operate
