Primero Announces Receipt of Mexican Import and Export Permits; Inventoried Silver Being Sold Immediately

06.08.2015  |  Marketwired

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - August 06, 2015) - Primero Mining Corp. ("Primero" or the "Company") (TSX: P) (NYSE: PPP) is pleased to announce that it has been reinstated to the import and export registries in Mexico and that normal course imports and exports have resumed for its San Dimas mine located in Durango State, Mexico.

As of yesterday evening Primero's wholly owned subsidiary Primero Empresa Minera S.A. de C.V. ("PEM") has been reinstated to the Mexican customs registry, and the Company has commenced selling all inventoried silver. This includes approximately 2.0 million ounces, comprised of 1.2 million ounces to be delivered under its silver purchase agreement with Silver Wheaton Corp. and 0.8 million ounces to be sold into the spot market. The proceeds from the silver sales will be recorded as third quarter revenue for the Company.

PEM's import and export licences were suspended by the Mexican customs authorities in May 2015 due to a discrepancy over the Company's address related to its corporate office relocation from Mexico City to Durango, Mexico. The Company was able to source necessary supplies locally so that the San Dimas mine and mill continued to operate uninterrupted.
