Compañia de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A. (“Buenaventura” or “the Company”) (NYSE: BVN; Lima Stock Exchange: BUE.LM), Peru’s largest publicly-traded precious metals mining company, is pleased to announce that ore treatment operations at its El Brocal processing plant has resumed. Ore treatment activities resumed operations at midnight on June 7, 2024 to begin processing the accumulated inventory at the mine site. El Brocal has accumulated approximately 220,000 tonnes of copper ore to date, the processing of which will gradually ramp to a rate of 15,000 tons per day, enabling recovery of ore processing which was halted during the suspension. The Company expects to achieve the budgeted production in 3Q24 to achieve its full year 2024 production guidance.

Huaraucaca community leaders signed an agreement with El Brocal representatives to end the prior blockade and related suspension of ore treatment at the Company’s processing facilities. A formal dialogue between Community leaders and Buenaventura, facilitated by officials from Peru’s Ministry of Energy and Mines (MINEM) have reviewed and addressed overall compliance with commitments between both parties. Further, Buenaventura reaffirms its commitment and compliance with all signed agreements with communities surrounding its operations.
