Mine Life12 years (as of Jan 1, 2018)
After the acquisition of the Campo Morado Mine, the Company restarted mining operations on a pre-production basis starting in October 2017. Effective May 15, 2018 the Company completed commissioning of Campo Morado mine and declared commercial production working continuously until June 2019.

On August 14, 2019, the Company curtailed operations at Campo Morado mine placing the mining project into care and maintenance as a result of declining zinc prices and community issues. However, with increasing zinc prices and significant improvements in community relations the Company made the decision to bring the mine project out of care and maintenance and restarted operations during the last week of January 2020. Nevertheless, on March 31, 2020 the Mexican Government proclaimed a national health emergency with an immediate suspension order of all "non essential" public and private sector businesses, including mining, to mitigate the spread and transmission of the COVID-19 virus.

Summary:

Mineralization at Campo Morado mine consists of polymetallic volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits hosted within an upper Jurassic to lower Cretaceous sequence of felsic to intermediate flows, tuffs and fragmental volcanic rocks, and fine-grained sedimentary rocks. There is strong geological continuity of the mineralization as demonstrated in the extensive diamond drilling and underground development.

Mining Methods

  • Block caving
  • Room-and-pillar

Summary:

During Campo Morado’s last full production year of 2014 only zinc and copper concentrates were recovered using room and pillar mining methods, Telson is planning to restart mining operations employing block caving mining methods to potentially reduce mining costs with an emphasis on maximizing recoveries of all economic metals including gold, silver, zinc, lead and copper. Additionally, Telson is planning to focus mining activities to zones outlined within the defined resources where higher precious metal content is available.
