Americas Gold and Silver Corporation Announces Strong 54% Quarterly Increase in Q2 2025 Production Results
Article content TORONTO — Americas Gold and Silver Corporation (the 'Company' or 'Americas') (TSX:USA; NYSE American: USAS) is pleased to announce strong consolidated silver production of 689,000 ounces for the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 54% compared to 446,000 ounces produced in the first quarter of 2025. Article content Americas' unaudited consolidated cash balance as at June 30, 2025 was US$61.7 million, an increase of US$52.9 million compared to March 31, 2025. The increased cash balance benefited from the receipt of the first tranche (US$50 million) of the previously announced US$100 million senior secured debt facility ('Term Loan Facility') and the receipt of US$11.5 million from a non-brokered private placement which was a pre-condition to the Term Loan Facility (see Americas news releases dated June 3, 2025, and June 25, 2025). During the second quarter, the Company continued to deploy capital into its revitalization and growth plan in line with its budget. Article content Paul Andre Huet, Chairman and CEO Commented: 'I am extremely pleased with our very strong second quarter results which were a 54% improvement on the first quarter of this year. After spending significant effort underground at Galena conducting numerous time studies, engineering work, productivity-focused projects and implementing both new equipment and adjusting the mining method, our operation in Idaho delivered a 34% quarter-over-quarter increase – a tremendous result by the team. At Cosalá, outstanding efforts by our operating team delivered a 103% improvement on the first quarter as the operation progresses on schedule towards the transition into EC120 later this year. Overall, we are delighted with the results across our operations after just two quarters at the helm with the new combined team working very well together. Article content The strong second quarter production and our significantly bolstered balance sheet have set us up with the resources we need to continue executing on the initial phases of our operational strategy focused on unlocking the massive potential of our asset base for our shareholders. Article content Overall, our operational performance in the first half of 2025 puts us in a very favourable position with respect to achieving our goals for 2025 as we build our growth momentum. We look forward to providing further updates as we continue our 2025 development and drill programs.'

Metallurgical Testwork at Galena Complex Demonstrates Over 90% Antimony Recovery Supporting Potential Near-Term Primary Antimony Production in the United States
Article content TORONTO — Americas Gold and Silver Corporation (TSX: USA) (NYSE American: USAS) ('Americas' or the 'Company'), a growing North American precious metals producer is pleased to announce promising results from recent metallurgical testing at its Galena Complex in Idaho, confirming high recoveries of antimony alongside strong silver and copper recoveries from ore currently being processed. Article content Article content Paul Andre Huet, Chairman and CEO, commented: 'I am very excited that results of our test work have successfully demonstrated the potential to recover antimony – which is designated as a critical mineral in the United States – from ore currently being mined at our Galena Complex through a specialized flotation circuit. This breakthrough could significantly enhance value for Americas and its shareholders, as we currently receive no revenue, and were previously penalized for, the antimony in concentrates already produced. Furthermore, we're now well positioned as an early mover with the potential to become the only antimony producer in the United States, in the near-term. Article content 'Our technical team is moving forward with detailed technical and trade-off studies to develop a plan to rapidly capitalize on the opportunity to commercially recover and realize value for antimony already present in our concentrates.' Article content Antimony at the Galena Complex is hosted in the common sulfosalt mineral, tetrahedrite, which is an antimony sulfide of silver, copper, iron and zinc. Although the Galena Complex has produced significant antimony over its life, the Company historically has not realized value for this material due to its insufficient concentration and quality for smelter acceptance. Article content Following a review of historical metallurgical data, the Company commissioned SGS Canada Inc. ('SGS') to conduct flotation tests on current mill feed. There were two objectives to the testwork: Article content Confirm that an antimony/silver flotation product could be achieved from the current ore being processed through the mill. Generate a sufficient volume of flotation concentrate for additional testing to separate the antimony from the concentrate. Article content Test Highlights: Article content These test results on the tetrahedrite material indicate that a marketable concentrate may now be possible using modern metallurgical processes. The results from the test work are shown in Table 1 below. Article content Test 1 Assays Distribution (%) Sb (%) Ag (g/t) Ag (opt) Cu (%) Pb (%) Fe (%) Sb 1 Ag Cu Pb Fe Rougher Concentrate 19.3 20,355 593.4 24.47 0.53 17.5 92.3 98.7 98.3 83.2 4.5 Rougher Tail 25 0.7 0.04 0.01 34.9 1.3 1.7 16.8 95.5 Calculated Head Grade 1,759 51.3 2.12 0.05 33.4 100 100 100 100 Assay Head Grade 1.2 1,790 52.2 2.1 0.05 34.2 Test 2 Assays Distribution (%) Sb (%) Ag (g/t) Ag (opt) Cu (%) Pb (%) Fe (%) Sb 1 Ag Cu Pb Fe Rougher Concentrate 19 20,283 591.3 23.4 0.53 17 90.5 98.9 98.2 83.4 4.3 Rougher Tail 22 0.6 0.04 0.01 35.6 1.1 1.8 16.6 95.7 Calculated Head Grade 1,762 51.4 2.05 0.05 34 100 100 100 100 Assay Head Grade 1.2 1,790 52.2 2.1 0.05 34.2 Test 3 Assays Distribution (%) Sb (%) Ag (g/t) Ag (opt) Cu (%) Pb (%) Fe (%) Sb 1 Ag Cu Pb Fe Rougher Concentrate 17.9 21,132 616.1 24.4 0.57 17.9 93.4 98.7 97.8 84.2 4.5 Rougher Tail 25 0.7 0.05 0.01 35.1 1.3 2.2 15.8 95.5 Calculated Head Grade 1,762 51.4 2.05 0.05 34 100 100 100 100 Assay Head Grade 1.2 1,790 52.2 2.1 0.05 34.2 Test 4 Assays Distribution (%) Sb (%) Ag (g/t) Ag (opt) Cu (%) Pb (%) Fe (%) Sb 1 Ag Cu Pb Fe Rougher Concentrate 18.1 19,836 578.3 22.5 0.5 18.5 96.2 98.3 98.3 83.5 5.1 Rougher Tail 34 1 0.04 0.01 34.6 1.7 1.7 16.5 94.9 Calculated Head Grade 1,844 53.7 2.09 0.06 33.1 100 100 100 100 Assay Head Grade 1.2 1,790 52.2 2.1 0.05 34.2 Note: 1) The antimony (Sb) distribution calculation uses the assay head grade to determine distribution. Article content The test results mark a key step toward establishing Americas Gold and Silver as the only current antimony producer in the United States, unlocking a new revenue stream from a strategic by-product, previously counted as a penalty element, of the Galena ore body. Article content Antimony is recognized by the U.S. government as one of 35 elements on the Department of the Interior's Critical Minerals List due to its use in national defense, energy storage, and semiconductor applications. Currently, more than 90% of the antimony consumed in the United States is imported, primarily from China, Russia, and Tajikistan. At present, there are no operating mines producing antimony in the United States. Article content Over 18 million pounds of antimony have been produced from the Galena Complex since 2001. Americas Gold and Silver is positioned to become the only antimony producer in the U.S. if the potential for commercial recovery and product refinement can be achieved. This milestone would represent a significant development in restoring domestic supply of a mineral deemed essential to U.S. national and economic security, particularly since China stopped selling antimony to the U.S. in September 2024. Article content Antimony is on the U.S. Department of the Interior's Critical Minerals List due to its strategic applications in: Article content Current U.S. Antimony Supply Landscape: Article content Zero operating primary antimony mines >90% imported (mainly from China, Russia, and Tajikistan) No meaningful domestic production Article content Global Antimony Supply (Estimated % of World Production 2024): Article content With no active domestic production, the U.S. is entirely dependent on foreign sources—a strategic vulnerability that Americas Gold and Silver may be uniquely positioned to help address. Article content Galena's Legacy and Opportunity Article content Since 2001, the Galena Complex has produced over 18 million pounds of antimony, making it the largest antimony-producing site in the U.S. over the past two decades. However, until now, no revenue was recognized from this output due to limitations in concentrate quality. Article content Recent testing suggests that modern processes can now: Article content Next Steps Article content Historically, individual lots of ore from both the Galena and Coeur mines were processed at the Sunshine Mine—located just four miles west—where antimony was effectively separated and recovered. Building on this precedent, the next phase of metallurgical testing, under the direction of Allihies Engineering, Inc., will focus on treating the current concentrate to produce multiple saleable antimony products, opening the door to monetizing a long-overlooked byproduct and reinforcing the Company's strategic value within the U.S. critical minerals framework. Article content About Americas Gold & Silver Corporation Article content Americas Gold and Silver is a growing precious metals mining company with multiple assets in North America. The Company owns and operates the Cosalá Operations in Sinaloa, Mexico. In December 2024, the Company acquired 100% ownership in the Galena Complex (located in Idaho, USA) in a transaction with Sprott and a Paul Huet-led management team, further strengthening its position as a leading silver producer. Sprott is now the largest shareholder in the company, holding a ~20% interest. With these strategically positioned assets, Americas Gold and Silver is focused on becoming one of the top North American silver-focused producers with an objective of over 80% of its revenue generated from silver by the end of 2025.
