Excellon Resources Inc. is a Canada-based, exploration and mining company focused on the acquisition, development and operation of precious metals properties in North America. Its primary asset is the high-grade Platosa silver-lead-zinc mine located in the Durango region of northern Mexico, one of the world’s richest silver mines by grade. Through a combination of underground development, ore extraction and processing operations, the company produces silver, lead and zinc concentrates for sale to global smelters.
Commissioned in the early 2000s, the Platosa mine has delivered consistent production through multiple mine life extensions enabled by ongoing exploration success. Excellon maintains a robust exploration program at Platosa’s various satellite zones and along regional structural corridors. In addition to Mexico, the company holds a portfolio of early-stage, high‐potential assets in Canada’s silver‐lead‐zinc districts, including properties in Ontario where historical mines and extensive infrastructure offer near-term upside for resource growth.
Excellon’s operations are supported by a modern 400-tonne-per-day processing plant that employs conventional flotation methods to separate valuable minerals. The company emphasizes cost control, metallurgical optimization and sustainable practices, including water management and community engagement initiatives in nearby municipalities. Excellon works closely with local stakeholders, securing social licenses to operate and investing in regional development programs.
Under the leadership of President and Chief Executive Officer Brendan Cahill and Chief Financial Officer Wayne Clark, Excellon Resources pursues a dual strategy of sustaining production at Platosa while advancing exploration targets toward development. With a seasoned board of directors and management team drawn from the mining industry, the company aims to expand its resource base, optimize cash flow and build shareholder value through disciplined capital allocation and strategic growth initiatives.
