The company is advancing toward its goal of increasing annual production to between 250,000 and 300,000 gold equivalent ounces (GEOs) by 2030, buoyed by strong gold prices and ongoing mine development.

McEwen shares trade on both the NYSE and TSX under the ticker MUX. The company provides shareholders with exposure to a growing base of gold and silver production, in addition to a large copper development project, all located in the Americas. Its gold and silver mines are situated in prolific mineral-rich regions, including the Cortez Trend in Nevada, the Timmins district of Ontario, Flin Flon in Manitoba, and the Deseado Massif in Santa Cruz province, Argentina. McEwen is also reactivating its gold-silver El Gallo Mine in Mexico.
The company holds a 46.3% interest in McEwen Copper, which owns the large, long-life, advanced-stage Los Azules copper development project in San Juan province, Argentina. According to the last financing for McEwen Copper, the implied value of McEwen’s ownership interest is US$456 million, or US$7.67 per share. The Los Azules copper project is designed to be one of the world’s first regenerative copper mines and aims to be carbon neutral by 2038. Its feasibility study results were announced in a press release dated October 7, 2025.
McEwen also recently purchased a 27.3% stake in Paragon Advanced Labs Inc., a newly listed public company deploying PhotonAssay units globally.

He is a recipient of the Order of Canada, a member of the Canadian Mining Hall of Fame, and a winner of the EY Entrepreneur of the Year (Energy) award.
