Our Business Model and Strategy

Our Business Model…

1. Maximise potential of existing operations• Operate at 100% capacity• Low-cost producer• Optimise mining method and metallurgy to maintain

high recovery rates

2. Deliver growth through development projects• Track record of delivery on time and on budget• Focus on CAPEX control • Specialised Engineering and Construction team

3. Extend the growth pipeline• Evaluate early-state acquisitions• Maintain reserves for 10 years• Ensure organic growth and assess key acquisition

opportunities

4. Advance sustainable development• Improve general health• Reinforce safety • Minimise the environmental impact• Maintain sound relations with communities

…supported by four strategic pillars to create value

Operations Review

Fresnillo

Stabilise and then improve ore grades and production to provide solid base for potential expansionOre grades expected to move towards reserve grade once operating stope flexibility regained

Key operating statistics 1H15

Silver production – moz 7.8 Cost per tonne – US$/t 48.5

Gold production – koz 15.1 Cash cost - US$/oz 5.8

Silver ore grade - g/t 220 AISC - US$/oz 11.1

Gold ore grade - g/t 0.50 AISC (LoM) (2023) – US$/oz 6.20

1H15 silver production decreased:

Lower silver ore grade reflecting limited access to high ore grade areas

Lower volumes processed due to development delays and stope instability

Actions taken:

Enhanced contractor supervision

Additional contractors

Measures to manage stope instability

Should allow development rates of c.4,000m / month to be maintained

Advancing declines in order to reach higher grade veins & regain operating stope flexibility

Conclusions and Outlook

• Pricing environment continues to be challenging

• However our strategic objectives remain unchanged

– Invest through the cycle, delivering growth and returns for our shareholders

– Low cost operating mines to continue to provide a solid platform for growth

– Development projects to deliver significant growth

– Investment in exploration to further extend growth pipeline

• Financial and operational flexibility allows us to adapt to market dynamics

• Robust contingency plan if prices continue to decline and remain at lower levels for a prolonged period

Remain on track to reach our production targets:45-47 moz of silver and 715-730 koz of gold in 2015

65 moz of silver and 750 koz of gold in 2018

H1 Performance

H1 Summary

1H15 silver production decreased due to:

Lower silver ore grade reflecting limited access to high ore grade areas

Lower volumes processed due to development delays and stope instability

Actions taken:

Enhanced contractor supervision

Additional contractors

Measures to manage stope instability

Development rates of 4,150m / month reached in June

Looking Forward Actions taken should allow development rates of c.4,000m / month to

be maintained

Advancing declines in order to reach higher grade veins & regain operating stope flexibility

This will create a platform to stabilise ore grades & volumes processed in 3Q15 and begin to see improvement in grades & production volumes in 4Q15

Silver ore grades are expected to move towards reserve grade once operating stope flexibility has been regained

H1 Performance

H1 Summary

1H15 silver production increased due to:

Increase in volume processed due to Saucito II start up

Higher silver ore grade resulting from increased ore throughput from higher ore grade veins

Improved control of dilution

Milling efficiencies at Saucito I plant (vibrating screens)

Saucito II now ramped up

Significantly ahead of the three year timeframe initially anticipated

Saucito I and II now operating at full capacity

In 1H16 plan to optimise the capacity of Saucito II

Install vibrating screens similar to those installed at Saucito I

Total nominal capacity of Saucito expected to increase to 7,200 TPD as a result (vs. originally planned capacity of 6,000TPD)

Ore grade and volumes processed were unusually high in 1H15 and are not expected to remain at these levels going forward

We will continue to process ore from development and production stopes in 2H15 and expect silver ore grade to average between 270-300 g/t

Looking Forward

OperationsCiénega Mine

H1 Performance

H1 Summary

1H15 gold production decreased due to:

Expected lower ore grade due to depletion of high gold ore grade areas with wider veins at Ciénega main mine

Maintenance delays (mill engine replacement) in June had a smaller impact

1H15 silver production increased due to:

Higher silver ore in veins at San Ramón satellite mine

Slightly offset by decrease in volume of ore processed

Evaluation of increasing capacity to either 5,000TPD or 6,000TPD, following good exploration results

Intensifying exploration efforts at areas of influence around Ciénega such as the Cebollitas cluster, which are expected to contribute to Ciénega’s future production as satellite mines

2H15 expected average gold ore grade of c.2 g/t and average silver ore grade of c.120 g/t

OperationsHerradura Mine

H1 Performance

H1 Summary

1H15 gold production increased due to:

Increase in ore processed with mine being fully operational post suspension in 1H14

DLP operational for full half post start-up in March 2014, resulting in increase in ore processed & higher ore grades

Higher overall average speed of recovery

Increase in ore grade

On track to reach steady state production in 4Q15 after ramp-up post suspension and resolution of solution processing issues

Controlling planned inventory increase at pads appropriately given temporary solution processing constraints

Gold inventory levels of c.170koz (vs. 200koz expected previously) should allow optimal balance between efficiency of leaching process and production costs

Inventory levels to move towards this level in H2 once steady state reached

2H15 expected average gold ore grade of around 0.7 g/t

H1 Summary

1H15 gold production increased due to:

Higher volume of gold recovered, driven by increased irrigation area

Higher volumes of ore deposited on the leaching pads resulting from lower than expected stripping ratio at mined areas

Partly offset by lower ore grade as ore deposited from higher benches to reduce haulage costs, rather than deeper higher ore grade areas

Continue to focus on containing costs

2H15 expected average gold ore grade of around 0.45 g/t

Looking Forward
