* Cash cost per ounce is calculated as total cash cost (cost of sales plus treatment and refinning charges less depreciation)less revenues from by-products divided by the silver or gold ounces sold.
** All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC) is calculated as traditional cash cost plus on-site general, corporate and administrative costs, community costs related to current operations, capitalised stripping & underground mine development, sustaining capital expenditures and remediation expenses.
Cash Costs among the lowest in the industry
11
2014 Financial Highlights(variations vs 2013)
• Adjusted revenue of US$1,545m, down 12.3% as a result of lower prices (Au -10.2%; Ag -18.4%) and the stoppage
of operations at Soledad-Dipolos
• Cost inflation in US$ terms remained subdued (+1.6%)
• Cost per tonne in the underground mines remained broadly flat, whereas in the open pit mines the increase was
mainly due to the increase in the stripping ratios
• Gross profit and EBITDA of US$521m and US$567m, down 32% and 22% respectively
• Total risk capital invested in exploration (incl. capitalised exploration expenses) of US$185m, below original budget
but, with decline in costs, pace of progress broadly in line with plan
• Profit for the year of US$117m, down 55%
• Financial strength and flexibility enabled US$450 million buyout of Penmont JV partner where we have since seen
good exploration results
• Other key uses of cash: US$426m CAPEX; US$87m dividends and US$38m interest paid
• Year end cash balance of US$449m
• Total property, plant and equipment of US$1,970 million
• Total debt of US$796 million
• Basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share from continuing operations of US$0.147, 55% lower
• A 2014 final dividend of 3 US cents per share recommended by the Board

San Julián Project
� The project encompasses an underground mine and the constructionof two plants:
� i) a flotation plant with 6,000 TPD capacity to process orefrom the disseminated body
� ii) a Dynamic Leaching Plant (DLP) to treat 3,000 TPD of orefrom the veins
� Construction progressing with the DLP expected to be commissionedin 4Q15 while the flotation plant will be commissioned in 2H16
� In 2014, the construction of the DLP, tailings dam and wastewatertreatment plant were initiated. Mining works at the vein systemcontinued
� Mining works and ventilation raises advanced 11,400m and2,500m respectively, totalling 63,000m of accumulateddevelopment
�Diamond drilling of approximately 20,000m converted aportion of the mineral resources into the reserve category,equivalent to 126moz silver and 61koz gold
Average Annual Silver Production 10.3 M Oz
Average Annual Gold Production 43.9 K Oz
Pre-operative CAPEX US$515 M
Life of mine 13 years
Disseminated Processing Capacity 6,000 TPD
Veins Processing Capacity 3,000 TPD

Pyrites Project
� This facility is expected to increase silver and gold recovery byprocessing on-going tailings from the Fresnillo and Saucito mines, aswell as historical tailings from Fresnillo
� The plant will froth float pyrite concentrates that will be leached in a2,000TPD DLP and Merrill-Crowe plant to produce precipitates
� At the current tailings plant at Fresnillo, we plan to install a13,000TPD tailings plant to process 5,000TPD from the old dams and8,000TPD of the tailings
� The project would increase the production of silver for the period2017-2036 by an average of 3.5moz per year, however for the first 5years (2017-2021), 4.7m additional ounces will be contributed peryear
� Cash cost per ounce of US$2.51/oz

Conclusions and Outlook
Outlook
• We have had a strong start to 2015, with operations performing well and providing a good
platform for growth
• Financial and operational flexibility maintained
• Defined strategic plan to address cyclical uncertainties
• We will maintain focus on stringent cost control across all operations
• We continue to invest prudently to achieve additional low cost ounces
• We continue to balance quality growth with returns to shareholders
• We continue identifying and adopting best practices in stakeholder engagement
Despite current markets and decline in precious metal prices, our strong balance sheet, high quality
assets, operational flexibility and conservative approach will support our goals of optimising
performance and delivering returns
On track to meet 2018 production guidance
of 65 moz silver (incl. Silverstream) and 750,000 oz gold
