Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. is a precious and base metals producer primarily engaged in the mining and processing of silver, zinc, lead, and copper. Headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, the company's operational footprint spans across Latin America, with key assets located in Bolivia and Mexico. In Bolivia, Santacruz operates the Bolivar, Porco, and Caballo Blanco mining complexes, and manages the San Lucas ore sourcing and trading business. In Mexico, the company holds a 100% interest in the Zimapan mine, which consists of numerous mining concessions. The company's business model centers on extracting high-grade silver and base metals, often reporting its production in silver equivalent ounces. While silver is its primary focus, the company generates substantial revenue from zinc and other byproducts, providing diversification against precious metal price volatility. Santacruz has grown through strategic acquisitions, such as the purchase of Bolivian assets from Glencore, transitioning from an exploration-stage junior to a mid-tier producer. The company sells its concentrates to global smelters and commodity traders.
