Environmental Challenges

  • Expectation of environmental liabilities associated with historical mining and exploration activity.
  • Limited information on how representative the samples used in test work are of the metallurgical variability of the deposit.
  • Arsenic (and potentially zinc) contents in concentrate may require consideration in either marketing the concentrate product or assessing further downstream secondary processing requirements.
Mitigation Strategies
  • Regulus’ subsidiaries SLP and/or Anta Norte must report the existence of environmental liabilities in an environmental baseline study to be excluded from reclamation responsibility.
  • Additional metallurgical testwork has been recommended to assess mineralization and geometallurgical variability especially regarding arsenic mineralogy, and to support concentrate marketing and/or secondary processing scenarios.
  • Various concentrate marketing and/or secondary processing options should be evaluated once the recommended metallurgical testwork is available to assess metallurgical characteristics.

Environmental Metrics

ESG Focus Areas

  • Community Development
  • Environmental Remediation
  • Sustainable Mining Practices

Environmental Achievements

  • Collaboration with local communities on environmental remediation projects (e.g., Tres Mosqueteros remediation project)
  • Data collection (e.g., petrographic and hyperspectral data) to facilitate sustainable mining practices

Social Achievements

  • Long-term community projects: installation of satellite internet antennas, pasture improvement and conservation, vaccination campaigns, construction of a town square
  • Collaborative approach with local communities to increase agricultural production, support improved health and education

Governance Achievements

  • Active involvement in local community and environmental initiatives
  • Collaboration with neighboring mines (e.g., Tantahuatay, Cerro Corona) to maximize value and address shared challenges

Climate Goals & Targets

Environmental Challenges

  • Complex claim position hindering exploration
  • Arsenic presence in the ore
  • Securing drilling permits
  • Resource expansion and reporting
  • Obtaining social license
  • Project financing without significant dilution
Mitigation Strategies
  • Agreements with CMC, Buenaventura, and Gold Fields for exploration
  • Multiple pathways to deal with arsenic, including Nuton leaching technology
  • Utilization of CMC drill permits and acquisition of new permits
  • Substantial resource growth through new drilling and data integration
  • Close collaboration with communities to establish sustainable social license
  • Non-dilutive financings with Osisko and above-market financing with Rio Tinto
