The company's focus is on optimizing its production and expanding its resource base.

Additionally, SilverCrest Metals has allocated a $10 million exploration budget from now until the end of Q1 2024. The primary objective of this budget is to convert high-grade inferred resources to reserves, ensuring the long-term viability of its operations.

The program will also target earlier-stage opportunities at Las Chispas, aiming to follow up on high-grade intercepts and identify new structures. This investment in exploration demonstrates the company's commitment to not only maintaining but also growing its resource base

By converting inferred resources to reserves and identifying new opportunities, SilverCrest Metals aims to secure its position as a leading player in the mining industry.

The company has also announced the filing of its Independent Technical Report for the Las Chispas Operation. The report has confirmed strong economics for an eight-year operation generating average annual production of 57 thousand ounces per year and 5.5 million ounces during the first seven full years.
