Welcome to Farallon Mining
  • Farallon Mining Ltd. (TSX:FAN) is a Canadian company with a zinc-rich polymetallic mine in Guerrero State, Mexico.
  • The G-9 mine achieved commercial production in April 2009. The production results during the commissioning phase met our targets and the mine has been built on-time and on-budget.
  • The final capital cost was $149.7 million which is only 20% higher than the original estimate in the Preliminary Economic Assessment from December 2007.
  • The G-9 mine is projected to be a low-cost producer of zinc along with excellent by-product credits in copper, silver, gold, and lead.
  • The mine plan is very robust and is designed to mine high zinc grades that average approximately 12%. This will allow Farallon to weather the current downturn in metals markets and will enable us to differentiate ourselves from our peers many of whom are closing down even as we are opening the G-9 mine.
  • Farallon has been steadfast in their ability to manage all aspects of bringing the G-9 mine into production. This should allow shareholders to ultimately benefit from the G-9 mine and the potential ability to generate cash flow under difficult circumstances.
  • As well, the exploration potential of the Campo Morado property is still relatively untapped with numerous targets open for exploration and ultimately development, resulting in a district scale mining company with several mines in operation.
