VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Endeavour Silver Corp. ("Endeavour" or the "Company") (NYSE: EXK; TSX: EDR) is pleased to announce the commencement of wet commissioning activities at its Terronera Project in Jalisco state, Mexico; a critical milestone in the lead-up to full-scale production.
“With wet commissioning now underway at Terronera, we are confident in the strength of our project and the operational path ahead,” commented Dan Dickson, Chief Executive Officer. “This achievement is a reflection of the commitment and expertise of our team, and we look forward to maintaining this momentum as we advance toward ramping up to commercial production.”
Terronera’s wet commissioning process involves the introduction of water and slurry into the plant circuits in order to validate the performance of equipment and systems under operational conditions. This critical phase follows the successful completion of dry commissioning, during which the mechanical, electrical, and control systems are tested without load.
The first slurry has now been introduced to the concentrate filter and preliminary performance has been consistent with design expectations. The operations and commissioning teams continue to closely monitor system performance, working in alignment with safety, environmental, and quality standards.
As the wet commission phase is completed, attention will be given to increasing feed and run times, and ramping up production to full throughput. The Company plans to provide operational guidance as ramp up advances.
Endeavour would like to acknowledge the outstanding efforts of its construction, engineering, and operations teams, whose dedication and commitment have brought Terronera to this important stage safely and efficiently.
