With over 430 million silver-equivalent ounces now confirmed, this remarkable resource is poised to vault CDPR into the ranks of major global silver producers.The most thrilling aspect of the Cerro de Pasco story is how rapidly the company can begin monetizing this vast stockpile. With material already at surface and permitting in place, CDPR benefits from an accelerated timeline and greatly reduced capital intensity compared to a traditional mining project. Cash flow from toll-milling operations could begin as early as 2024, with the potential to self-fund a larger stand-alone plant that would dramatically increase production and profitability.Cerro de Pasco also shines when it comes to cost structure. At an anticipated operating cost of just $10/tonne, the project is set to deliver robust margins through all phases of the commodity price cycle. Even with silver at multi-year lows, the stockpile would generate over $50/tonne of profit, translating to annual free cash flows well in excess of $100 million. And that's before factoring in the enormous upside potential from soaring gallium values.The recent discovery of significant gallium grades throughout the Cerro de Pasco stockpiles was a game-changer that few could have predicted. With demand for this critical tech metal skyrocketing and supply becoming ever-more precarious, CDPR now finds itself with a second crown jewel in addition to its elite silver resource. As the company unlocks the value of the gallium endowment in parallel with silver production, it's not hard...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/1wv-MFlQAgnm-ca64e5kK4984dZB0os8-HJdRVsI74M/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzEzNTcyLzE2MjM5/NTQyMDctYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
