Hudbay is on the cusp of an exciting new growth phase in Canada, the latest chapter in close to 100 years of history.

Our Canadian business can trace its history back almost a century, to our first mines in Manitoba’s Flin Flon Greenstone Belt. It was there we laid the foundation for the mine-building expertise and community engagement that distinguish Hudbay to this day. Our operational focus in Canada is shifting to Manitoba’s Snow Lake region as our reserves, processing capacity and exploration activities expand in the region, setting the stage for a new phase of growth.

Our Lalor mine (gold, zinc, copper, silver) in Snow Lake is a meaningful low-cost gold producer that substantially benefited from the refurbishment of the New Britannia mill in 2021. Our 777 mine (copper, zinc, gold, silver) in Flin Flon is approaching the end of its mine life after over 15 years. Final production is anticipated in 2022. Flin Flon helped shape Hudbay's values of dignity and respect, caring, openness and trust, which reflects how we will manage the closure and support for the community.

Environment

We take environmental performance seriously, and are implementing the Mining Association of Canada’s TSM (Towards Sustainable Mining) protocols for Biodiversity, Energy and Greenhouse Gas and Tailings at all of our operations. These protocols provide clear guidelines for monitoring, measuring and reporting on performance. They emphasize management processes, senior executive oversight and expert third-party reviews, which help to ensure appropriate technical standards of construction, maintenance and operation.

Community

Hudbay didn’t just build a successful business in northern Manitoba – it helped build successful communities like the city of Flin Flon. Through jobs, business opportunities, taxes and royalties, community development programs and infrastructure investments, we support and advance long-term socio-economic development. In northern Manitoba, where a large portion of the population self-identify as indigenous, we work closely with our indigenous community partners to bridge cultural gaps and improve business opportunities. Developing job skills within indigenous communities not only helps the communities; it also benefits Hudbay by growing the base from which we hire and increasing the number of qualified suppliers from which we procure goods and services.

People

We recognize that employing people with different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives makes us stronger and fosters collaboration. In Manitoba, we partnered with the Northern Manitoba Sector Council to increase recruitment of indigenous employees. Twelve people have been hired under the program so far. Separately, two women in our Manitoba Business Unit founded the Hudbay Women’s Network, an employee-led voluntary resource group. The group’s founding principle is gender inclusion and its goal is to empower Hudbay employees by providing a vehicle for professional growth and a strong voice.

¹ Mineral resources are exclusive of mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.
² Mineral resources do not include factors for mining recovery or dilution.
³ Base metal mineral resources are estimated based on the assumption that they would be processed at the Stall concentrator while gold mineral resources are estimated based on the assumption that they would be processed at the New Britannia concentrator.
⁴ Long-term metal prices of $1.15 per pound zinc, $1,500 per ounce gold, $3.45 per pound copper, and $20.00 per ounce silver with an exchange rate of 1.30 C$/US$ were used to estimate mineral reserves and resources.
⁵ Lalor mineral reserves and resources are estimated using a minimum NSR cut-off of C$117 per tonne for waste filled mining areas and a minimum of C$127 per tonne for paste filled mining areas.
⁶ Individual stope gold grades at Lalor were capped at 10 grams per tonne as a prudent estimate until reserves-to-mill reconciliations can be developed to support the recovery of higher-grade gold. This capping method resulted in an approximate 3% reduction in the overall gold reserve grade at Lalor.
⁷ 1901 mineral reserves and resources are estimated using a minimum NSR cut-off of C$110 per tonne.

⁵ WIM mineral reserves are estimated using a minimum NSR cut-off of C$150 per tonne, assuming processing recoveries of 98% for copper, 88% for gold and 70% for silver based on processing through New Britannia mill's flotation and tails leach circuits.
⁶3 Zone mineral reserves are estimated using a minimum NSR cut-off of C$150 per tonne, assuming processing recoveries of 85% for gold based on processing through New Britannia mill's leach circuit.
⁷New Britannia mineral resource estimates have been reported at a minimum true width of 1.5 metres and with a cut-off grade varying from 2 grams per tonne (at the lower part of New Britannia) to 3.5 grams per tonne (at the upper part of New Britannia).
⁸Mineral reserves and resources were initially estimated using metal price assumptions that vary marginally over the assumptions used to estimate mineral reserves at Lalor. In the Qualified Person’s opinion, the combined impact of these small variations does not have any impact on the mineral reserve and resource estimates
