Nexa Resources released its drilling and assay results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2022, highlighting a total drilling production of 259,314 meters. This includes 116,730 meters of exploratory drilling, achieving 95% of planned activities. Significant findings include high-grade mineralization at the Aripuanã project, with results such as 26.0 meters @ 8.36% Zn and 6.1 meters @ 22.85% Zn. Future exploratory drilling plans for early 2023 include an estimated 16,200 meters across various regions. The company continues to demonstrate potential for extending the life of its mining operations.
Nexa Resources reported its financial results for Q3 and 9M 2022, revealing net revenues of US$703 million, up 7.3% year-over-year. However, net income showed a loss of US$40 million, largely due to significant declines in metal prices and rising operational costs. Zinc production fell by 5% compared to Q3 2021, impacted by lower output at Cerro Lindo. Despite a strong balance sheet, Nexa faces challenges from inflation and global market volatility. The Aripuanã project is on track for commercial production in December, with ongoing cost reduction strategies in place to combat economic pressures.
Nexa Resources has released its third-quarter 2022 drilling and assay results, highlighting a focus on near-mine expansion and infill drilling, particularly at the Aripuanã project. By the end of the quarter, cumulative drilling reached 199,639 meters, with 24,693 meters drilled in Q3 alone. Results indicate potential for extending mine life, especially at Cerro Lindo and the Pasco complex, where significant mineralization was reported. The Hilariôn project also showed promising skarn mineralization. The company plans further exploratory drilling of 28,380 meters in the upcoming quarter.
