First Majestic Silver operations in Mexico

Overview

First Majestic Silver initially reported positive exploration results from its 2026 drilling program at the San Dimas silver/gold mine in Durango, Mexico. The company identified high-grade silver and gold sections at the Convención and El Cristo areas, aiming to expand the district’s exploration profile.

By late September, the company’s efforts to drive production growth and capital investment faced operational challenges due to labor unrest at the San Dimas site. Workers initiated a strike on September 19, citing disputes over safety, working conditions, contract extensions for external providers, and unpaid productivity bonuses. Additionally, tensions emerged at the Tayoltita site regarding the withdrawal of contractor equipment.
