Company Overview

Industrias Peñoles, S.A.B. de C.V. is a Mexico-based mining, metals, and chemical company that operates primarily in the precious metals, base metals, and industrial chemicals industries. The company is one of the world’s largest producers of refined silver and an important producer of gold, zinc, lead, and copper concentrates. Its operations span mining, metallurgical processing, refining, and chemical production, with revenue driven mainly by metal sales, refined precious metals, concentrates, and industrial chemical products. The company serves industrial customers, commodity traders, manufacturers, and global metals markets, with significant exposure to export markets in the Americas, Europe, and Asia.

The company traces its origins to 1887 and evolved from a regional mining operator into one of Mexico’s largest diversified natural resources groups. A major component of its structure is its controlling interest in Fresnillo plc, a London-listed precious metals producer. Peñoles has historically emphasized vertical integration, allowing it to control extraction, smelting, refining, and commercialization processes. Its strategic positioning is strengthened by long-life mineral reserves, integrated metallurgical infrastructure, and longstanding operational expertise in silver production and non-ferrous metallurgy.
