"2024 marks another record milestone for First Majestic. Due to our strategic M&A activities and widely successful exploration program, we have increased our Mineral Resources to the highest level in the Company's history" stated Keith Neumeyer, President & CEO of First Majestic. "I am proud of what we have achieved in 2024 from an exploration and geology stance. We budgeted for a robust exploration program in 2024 and it has yielded exceptional results, most notably the high-grade gold and silver discovery at Santa Elena, Navidad, and impressive results at San Dimas, which sets us up for an exciting future ahead. We finished the year on a fantastic note and our team hit the ground running executing on our record 2025 exploration program."
In 2024, the Company increased its silver equivalent
("AgEq") ounce Proven and Probable Reserves by 45%, and its Measured & Indicated, and Inferred Mineral Resources by 25% and 23%, respectively. This strong increase in contained AgEq ounces was driven by the success of the Company's 2024 exploration program and the strategic acquisition of Gatos Silver.
2024 HIGHLIGHTS
- The Company agreed to
acquire Gatos Silver
, which holds a 70% joint venture interest in the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine, and the acquisition was completed subsequent to year-end. - The Company completed 182,909 metres of exploration drilling during 2024.
- Reserves +45% Y/Y AgEq: Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves ("P&P") estimates at the Company's four producing mines totalled 17.9 million tonnes with 177.6 million AgEq ounces consisting of 86.8 million ounces of silver and 594,000 ounces of gold, 587 million pounds of zinc, 314 million pounds of lead, and 32 million pounds of copper (the Company's P&P Mineral Reserve estimates now include zinc, lead and copper following the addition of the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine), which represent a 60% increase in tonnes, a 55% increase in silver ounces and a 12% decrease in gold ounces for an aggregate 45% increase in AgEq ounces compared to the 2023 year-end P&P Mineral Reserves estimates. The significant growth in P&P Mineral Reserves reflects the addition of the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine. The Mineral Reserves for the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine are reported on a 70% attributable basis to the Company.
- M&I Resources +25% Y/Y AgEq: Measured and Indicated ("M&I") Mineral Resource estimates for the Company's four producing mines and the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine totalled 34.8 million tonnes with 434.2 million AgEq ounces consisting of 135.2 million ounces of silver, 2.9 million ounces of gold, 672 million pounds of zinc, 360 million pounds of lead, and 35 million pounds of copper (the Company's M&I Mineral Resource estimates now include zinc, lead and copper following the addition of the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine). This represents a 36% increase in tonnes, a 41% increase in silver ounces and a 1% increase in gold ounces for an aggregate 25% increase in AgEq ounces compared to the 2023 year-end M&I Mineral Resource estimates. The significant growth of the M&I Mineral Resource estimates reflects the addition of the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine (reported on a 70% attributable basis to the Company), mining depletion and updated economic parameters. Exploration drilling results converted and added M&I Mineral Resources.
- Inferred Resources +23% Y/Y AgEq: Inferred Mineral Resource estimates for the Company's four producing mines and the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine totalled 29.0 million tonnes with 350.3 million AgEq ounces consisting of 81.2 million ounces of silver, 2.9 million ounces of gold, 171 million pounds of zinc, 77 million pounds of lead, and 7 million pounds of copper (the Company's Inferred Mineral Resource estimates now include zinc, lead and copper following the addition of the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine). This represents a 30% increase in tonnes, a 25% increase in silver ounces and a 13% increase in gold ounces for an aggregate 23% increase in AgEq ounces compared to the 2023 year-end Inferred Mineral Resource estimates. The substantial increase to the Inferred Mineral Resource estimates reflects the discovery and declaration of a maiden Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate for the Navidad gold and silver deposit (at Santa Elena), and the addition of the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine (reported on a 70% attributable basis to the Company).
- The Navidad discovery at Santa Elena added 2.3 million tonnes of Inferred Mineral Resources with 29.7 million AgEq ounces consisting of 5.9 million ounces of silver and 249,000 ounces of gold with metal grades of 81 g/t Ag and 3.42 g/t Au. To date, only a portion of the newly delineated vein system has been classified within the resource estimate, with significant upside potential to be realized through additional drilling.

- AgEq ounces are estimated considering metal price assumptions, metallurgical recovery for the corresponding mineral type/mineral process and the metal payable of the corresponding contract of each mine. Details as to the method of calculation can be found in the applicable tables in each mine section of the Company's 2024 AIF, which is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Numbers in the above are rounded, and totals may not sum as a result.
MINERAL RESERVE AND MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATES
As of December 31, 2024, P&P Mineral Reserves estimates at the Company's four producing mines totalled 86.8 million ounces of silver, 594,000 ounces of gold, 587 million pounds of zinc, 314 million pounds of lead and 32 million pounds of copper, which represents a total of 177.6 million AgEq ounces.
The significant year-over-year P&P Mineral Reserve Estimate increase on an AgEq basis is driven by the addition of the Mineral Reserves at the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine (reported on a 70% attributable basis to the Company).

- Mineral Reserves are classified per CIM Definition Standards and NI 43-101, derived from Measured & Indicated Resources, and are reported with a reference point of mined ore delivered to the plant.
- For San Dimas, Santa Elena and La Encantada: Mineral Reserves are effective December 31, 2024, and account for depletion to that date.
- For Cerro Los Gatos: Mineral Reserves are effective July 1, 2024, account for depletion to December 31, 2024, and are reported on a 70% attributable basis to the Company.
- Reserve estimates were supervised or reviewed by Andrew Pocock, P.Eng., Internal Qualified Person for First Majestic per NI 43-101.
- Silver equivalent grade is estimated considering metal price assumptions, metallurgical recovery for the corresponding mineral type/mineral process and the metal payable of the selling contract. The AgEq grade formulas vary and are presented in each mine section of the AIF.
- Metal prices for Mineral Reserves estimates for the Santa Elena, San Dimas and La Encantada properties were $26/oz Ag and $2,200 oz Au; and metal prices for the Cerro Los Gatos property were $23/oz Ag, $1,850/oz Au, $0.95/lb Pb, $1.25/lb Zn and $4.0/lb Cu.
- Modifying factors for conversion of resources to reserves include but are not limited to consideration for mining methods, mining recovery, dilution, sterilization, depletion, cutoff grades, geotechnical conditions, metallurgical factors, infrastructure, operability, safety, environmental, regulatory, social and legal factors. These factors were applied to produce mineable stope shapes. These parameters are different for each mine and mining method assumed and are presented in each mine section of the AIF.
- The cutoff grades, metallurgical recoveries, payable terms and modifying factors used to convert Mineral Reserves from Mineral Resources are different for all mines and are presented in each mine section in the 2024 AIF.
- Modifying factors for conversion of resources to reserves include consideration for planned dilution which is based on spatial and geotechnical aspects of the designed stopes and economic zones, additional dilution consideration due to unplanned events, materials handling and other operating aspects, and mining recovery factors. Mineable shapes were used as geometric constraints.
- Tonnage in thousands of tonnes, metal content in thousands of ounces, prices/costs in USD. Numbers are rounded, and as a result, may not sum due to rounding.
- The technical reports from which the above-mentioned information is derived are cited under the heading "Technical Reports for Material Properties" in the 2024 AIF.
As of December 31, 2024, the M&I Mineral Resource estimates for the Company's four producing mines and its Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine totalled 434.2 million AgEq ounces consisting of 135.2 million ounces of silver, 2.9 million ounces of gold, 671.9 million pounds of zinc, 359.6 million pounds of lead, and 35.1 million pounds of copper.
The significant increase in M&I Mineral Resources relate to the additional M&I Mineral Resources from the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine (reported on a 70% attributable basis to the Company), expansionary drilling results, and new cutoff grades from updated economic parameters including costs, recoveries and metal prices. M&I Mineral Resource estimates are reported inclusive of Mineral Reserve estimates.
As of December 31, 2024, the Inferred Mineral Resource estimates for the Company's four producing mines and its Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine totalled 350.6 million AgEq ounces consisting of 81.4 million ounces of silver, 2.9 million ounces of gold, 173.6 million pounds of zinc, 78.5 million pounds of lead, and 8.0 million pounds of copper. The changes are primarily related to the discovery and declaration of a maiden Inferred Mineral Resource estimate for the Navidad project (at Santa Elena), the additional Inferred Mineral Resources from the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine (reported on a 70% attributable basis to the Company), expansionary drilling results, and new cutoff grades from updated economic parameters including costs, recoveries and metal prices.

- Mineral Resource estimates are classified per CIM Definition Standards and NI 43-101.
- The Mineral Resource estimates have an effective date of December 31, 2024. Sample data was collected through a cutoff date of December 31, 2024, for the Material Properties except for the Cerro Los Gatos estimate, which was March 31, 2024. All properties account for relevant technical information and mining depletion through December 31, 2024.
- The Cerro Los Gatos Mineral Resources are reported on a 70% FM attributable basis.
- Mineral Resource estimates were supervised or reviewed by David Rowe, CPG, Internal Qualified Person for First Majestic, per NI 43-101.
- Silver equivalent grade is estimated considering metal price assumptions, metallurgical recovery for the corresponding mineral type/mineral process and the metal payable of the corresponding contract of each mine. Estimation details are listed in each mine section of the AIF.
- Metal prices considered for all Mineral Resources estimates for the Santa Elena, San Dimas, Jerritt Canyon and La Encantada properties were $28/oz Ag and $2,400 oz Au. Metal prices considered for the Cerro Los Gatos Silver Mine were $23/oz Ag, $1,850/oz Au, $0.95/lb Pb, $1.25/lb Zn and $4.0/lb Cu.
- The cutoff grades and cutoff values used to report Mineral Resources are different for all mines. The cutoff grades, values and economic parameters are listed in the applicable section describing each mine section of the 2024 AIF.
- Mineral Resources are reported within mineable stope shapes or open pit shapes the cutoff values calculated using the stated metal prices and metal recoveries in the mine section of the AIF. The cutoff values include mill recoveries and payable metal factors appropriate to the existing processing circuit.
- No dilution was applied to the Mineral Resource which are reported on an in situ basis.
- Tonnage is expressed in thousands of tonnes; metal content is expressed in thousands of ounces and millions of pounds. Totals may not add up due to rounding.
- Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources are reported inclusive of Mineral Reserves. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
- The technical reports from which the above-mentioned information for the material properties is derived are cited under the heading "Technical Reports for Material Properties " of the 2024 AIF.
The Company also announces that its 2024 AIF has been filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ and is available at www.sedarplus.ca.

This news release contains "forward‐looking information" and "forward-looking statements" under applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws (collectively, "forward‐looking statements"). These statements relate to future events or the Company's future performance, business prospects or opportunities that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management made in light of management's experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments. Forward-looking statements in this news release include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to future exploration activities and the results thereof. Assumptions may prove to be incorrect and actual results and future events may differ materially from those anticipated. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "may", "will", "project", "predict", "forecast", "potential", "target", "intend", "could", "might", "should", "believe" and similar expressions) are not statements of historical fact and may be "forward‐looking statements".
Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to materially differ from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to: material adverse changes, unexpected changes in laws, rules or regulations, or their enforcement by applicable authorities; the failure of parties to contracts with the company to perform as agreed; social or labour unrest; changes in commodity prices; and the failure of exploration programs or studies to deliver anticipated results or results that would justify and support continued exploration, studies, development or operations. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended.
The Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward‐looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward‐looking statements included herein should not be unduly relied upon. These statements speak only as of the date hereof. The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable laws.
Cautionary Note to United States Investors
The Company is a "foreign private issuer" as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is eligible to rely upon the Canada-U.S. Multi-Jurisdictional Disclosure System, and is therefore permitted to prepare the technical information contained herein in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of the securities laws currently in effect in the United States. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable with information made public by companies that report in accordance with U.S. standards.
Technical disclosure contained in this news release has not been prepared in accordance with the requirements of United States securities laws and uses terms that comply with reporting standards in Canada with certain estimates prepared in accordance with NI 43-101.
NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning the issuer's material mineral projects.
