PROMOTE HIGHER LEVELS OF INVESTMENT AND COMPETITIVENESS IN THE MINING SECTOR; SEEK INCREASED FUNDING IN THE MINING SECTOR AND ITS VALUE CHAIN; ENCOURAGE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SMALL AND MEDIUM MINING AND SOCIAL MINING AND MODERNIZE THE INSTITUTIONAL

REGULATIONS FOR THE SECTOR AND IMPROVE THE PROCESSES OF CARE

PROCEDURES RELATED TO MINING, ARE FOUR OF THE MAJOR OBJECTIVES IN THE MINING DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM 2013 ‐2018. WILL HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE MINING INDUSTRY IN TERMS OF COMMUNICATIONS AND

TRANSPORTATION, AS WELL AS ANY REDUCTION IN OPERATING COSTS, INCLUDING ELECTRICITY AND NATURAL GAS; SIMILARLY, CERTAIN AMENDMENTS TO THE MINING ACT, TO REMOVE THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK, THE RIGHT OF MINING COMPANIES TO EXTRACT GAS. INCLUDES THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE REGULATED UNDER THE PROPOSED

NEW HYDROCARBONS LAW.

THE PROGRAM SPECIFICALLY CONTEMPLATES THE NEED FOR MEXICO TO EXPAND THEIR MARKETS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE EXPLORATION

AND EXPLOITATION OF MINERALS USED IN THE

MANUFACTURE OF HIGH‐TECH PRODUCTS, AS ARE TITANIUM, COBALT, ANTIMONY, AND, OF COURSE, LAND RARE, WHICH ARE CONSIDERED THE MINERAL OF THE FUTURE. MEXICO IS DETERMINED TO USE ITS GEOLOGICAL WEALTH TO ATTRACT MINING INVESTMENT AND IMPROVE THE

PERFORMANCE OF THIS SECTOR FROM ALL KEY SECTORS. MEXICO RANKED AS THE FIFTH MOST ATTRACTIVE COUNTRY TO INVEST IN THE MINING SECTOR, SECOND ONLY TO AUSTRALIA, CANADA, CHILE AND BRAZIL.

IN THE CASE OF PRECIOUS METALS, THE PAST YEAR WAS CHARACTERIZED BY A WEAKNESS IN INDUSTRIAL DEMAND AND LOWER INVESTMENT DEMAND

DUE TO THE RECOVERY OF MAJOR ECONOMIES GLOBALLY. IN 2013 THE AVERAGE PRICE OF GOLD WAS 15.4% LOWER THAN IN THE PREVIOUS YEAR, WITH A LEVEL OF 1411.0 DL / OZ; SILVER HAD AN AVERAGE PRICE OF 23.8 DL / OZ IN 2013, WHICH REPRESENTED A DECREASE OF 23.5% OVER 2012.

IT IS A LEADING PRODUCER OF SILVER, SECOND BISMUTH, FLUORITE AND WOLLASTONITE THIRD CELESTITE, STANDS OUT AS THE FOURTH LARGEST PRODUCER OF LEAD AND CADMIUM; FIFTH SITE IN THE PRODUCTION OF SELENIUM, MOLYBDENUM, AND DIATOMITE; SIXTH IN ZINC; SEVENTH IN SALT

PRODUCTION; GOLD, BARITE, GRAPHITE AND PLASTER, RANKING EIGHTH LARGEST SITE; NINTH IN THE PRODUCTION OF MANGANESE AND TENTH PLACE IN THE WORLD COPPER PRODUCTION.

THE VALUE OF NON‐OIL EXTRACTIVE MINING IN 2013 REPRESENTED 1.8% OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT (GDP) AND THE ACTIVITIES INCLUDED MINERAL PROCESSING ITS SHARE REACHED 4.9 PERCENT (2). NOTE THAT THE GDP OF THE SECTOR RECORDED AN ANNUAL AVERAGE GROWTH OF 3.5% IN THE PERIOD 2001‐2012, HIGHER THAN THE ECONOMY AS A WHOLE (2.2%) AND THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF THE PAST THREE DECADES RATE

REMEMBER THAT THE EXTRACTIVE SECTOR REPRESENTS A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF PERMANENT JOBS AND THE AVERAGE WAGE IN THIS INDUSTRY IS

37% HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. MEXICOʹS MINING INDUSTRY HAS DISTINGUISHED ITSELF

AS ONE OF THE MOST GLOBALLY

COMPETITIVE; FROM 2011 TO 2013, MEXICO WAS RANKED AS THE FIFTH MOST ATTRACTIVE COUNTRY TO

INVEST IN THE MINING SECTOR, SECOND ONLY TO AUSTRALIA,

CANADA, CHILE AND BRAZIL.

EXPECTATIONS FOR DECEMBER 2013 DECREASED INDICATORS FOR PRODUCTION, UTILIZATION OF PLANT AND EQUIPMENT, DOMESTIC DEMAND FOR THEIR PRODUCTS, BUSY STAFF, INVESTMENT IN PLANT AND EQUIPMENT AND INVENTORIES OF FINISHED GOODS; WHILE FOR EXPORTS WERE BETTER IN THE REPORTED MONTH COMPARED TO THE SAME MONTH A YEAR EARLIER. IN TERMS OF EXPECTATIONS ON SALES PRICES AND INPUT PRICES, THEY RECORDED DECLINES.

CGMʹS STRATEGY IS TO PROMOTE COORDINATION BETWEEN GOVERNMENTS, COMPANIES AND COMMUNITIES DURING THE EARLY STAGES OF PROJECTS; PROVIDE GUIDANCE FOR MINING COMPANIES TO COMPLY WITH

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS AND PROMOTE NEGOTIATION BETWEEN

COMPANIES AND COMMUNITIES IN COLLABORATION WITH STATE AND

MUNICIPAL AUTHORITIES.

OUR COUNTRY HAS A GREAT GEOLOGICAL POTENTIAL, VARIED RESOURCES, AND EXCELLENT DEPOSITS; WHICH ALLOWED MOVE UP AS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT

GLOBAL RANKING AMONG THE TOP TEN PRODUCING 18 MINERALS ACCORDING TO 2013 DATA PRODUCERS.


Introduction

The world economy grew 3.0% in 2013 according to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), slightly lower than that recorded the previous year (3.2%) rate. The advanced economies experienced a modest growth rate of 1.3%, marked by a slowdown in the U.S. and negative results in the European Union.

The mining and metallurgical production was the result of the complex behavior of the different minerals that form, for example in terms concessible minerals, which are minerals that, according to the Mining Law, can only be exploited with permission or concession granted by the Ministry of Economy; such as gold, silver, lead, copper, zinc, coal, coke, iron, manganese, sulfur, barite, kaolin, celestite, diatomite, dolomite, fluorite, feldspar, phosphate, graphite, salt, sodium sulfate, manganese sulfate wollastonite and gypsum, among others.

Increases were observed in the production of silver, gold and precious metals; Selenium, Molybdenum and Bismuth nonferrous industrial minerals; Manganese, Coke and Iron Ores of Iron and Steel; Dolomite, Kaolin, Celestite, Phosphate, Gypsum, Salt, wollastonite, diatomite, Sulfur, Magnesium Sulfate and Sodium Sulfate of non-metallic minerals. In contrast, decreased production of Cadmium, Lead, Copper and Zinc of Industrial Non Ferrous Metals Like coal, fluorite, graphite, barite, silica and feldspar nonmetallic minerals

As for non-grantable minerals, which are minerals that, according to the Mining Law do not require a permit from the government to be exploited; are basically used for construction such as sand, marble, volcanic rock and quarry, among others; the Mexican Geological Service, managed to capture more information in different materials so that the production of stone aggregates, clays, sand, calcite, limestone, quarry, gravel, mainly land increased fuller; well this year we fail to capture information basalt, ignimbrite and slate.

The extraction and processing of silver was conducted in four states, namely: Zacatecas which contributed 39.2%, 17.0% Chihuahua, Durango and Sonora 12.5% 11.5%; while 19.9% was in Coahuila, Guanajuato, State of Mexico and other states.

As regards the production of lead, excelled that of Zacatecas with 51.7%, 22.4% Chihuahua and Durango with 11.1%; meanwhile, Aguascalientes, Mexico State, San Luis Potosí, Guerrero, Sinaloa and other entities generated 14.8% in 2013.'s copper production took place mainly in Sonora with a share of 76.9%, with 10.5 continuing

Zacatecas % 5.0% San Luis Potosi and Chihuahua with 3.5 percent. The remaining 4.1% recorded in Guerrero, Queretaro, Estado de Mexico, Durango and others. As for the extraction and processing of zinc, Zacatecas meant 41.6% of the national total, followed by Chihuahua with 19.4%, 10.4 Durango, San Luis Potosi 7.3%, and Mexico, with 6.8 percent. Plug originated 14.5% of aggregate in the states of Aguascalientes, Guerrero, Hidalgo, and Oaxaca, Queretaro Sinaloa way. Coke production achieved in Coahuila de Zaragoza with a contribution of 81.2% and Michoacán de Ocampo with 18.8%. Iron production in the states of Michoacán de Ocampo with 40.3%, Coahuila Colima with 16.6% and 13.9% with; 29.3% was obtained in Durango, Jalisco, Sonora and others.

Sulfur is produced in the states of Tabasco, Chiapas, Veracruz, Tamaulipas and Nuevo Leon, with 34.7%, 24.2%, 10.8%, 9.9% and 9.6%, respectively; Oaxaca continuing with 4.2%, 3.4% and Hidalgo Guanajuato with 3.1 percent. With respect to fluorite, San Luis Potosi reached 93.8% and Coahuila 6.2% in 2013. Worth noting that among the major metals and minerals exceeding the previous year's

prices recorded, so that besides this demand was also a contributing factor to strengthen the results of the value of exports of metals and minerals. Other minerals that considered non-grantable (because only the government can exploit) are hydrocarbons (oil) and radioactive minerals (uranium).

Investments bring long-term projects, the generation of basic infrastructure such as roads, highways, drainage, lighting and social infrastructure and quality housing, schools, sports centers and hospitals. An effort has been made to attract investors from across the globe to bring their capital into Mexico and specifically mining by Canadian companies.

On the other hand, note that as of December 2013 a total of 266 enterprises with foreign capital registered, operating 870 projects in Mexico. Of the total foreign firms, 185 (69.5%) have their headquarters in Canada, 44 (16.5%) in the United States, 9 in China (3.4%) and 6 (1.7%) in Japan. In addition, they were 4 (1.5%) from Australia, 4 from Korea, 4 in the UK, 2 (0.8%) in Chile and 2 in India and with a company (0.4%) from Belgium, Brazil, Spain, Italy, Luxembourg and Peru.

The higher gold production was concentrated in Sonora which contributed 30.0% of the national total, 16.5% Zacatecas, Chihuahua 17.5%, 13.5% Durango, Guerrero 9.4% 3.8% San Luis Potosi; while Aguascalientes, Baja California, Guanajuato, Estado de Mexico, Oaxaca, and others jointly produced 7.4 percent.

1. Global Economy in 2013

The global economy grew 3.0% in 2013 according to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), slightly lower pace than that recorded the previous year (3.2%). The advanced economies recorded a growth rate of 1.3%, slowdown in United States and negative results in the European Union.

The emerging and developing economies also recorded a growth rate of 4.7%, which represents three tenths less than in 2012. China however maintained its growth rate, certainly below previous years, but holding a rate of 7.7%.

Latin America also grew slightly below the year 2012 (3.1%), with a rate of 2.7%. The largest economy in the region, Brazil, reached a rate of 2.3%, which, though twice above the prior rate, continues to set a lower growth rate.

Trade flows remained at a low growth rate, the volume of world trade grew by 3.0% in 2013 to 2.8% of the 2012. The dynamism limited of commodity demand influenced the downward trend in mineral prices: the index of metal prices during 2013 recorded a decrease of 4.2% over the last year.

Investment levels in mineral exploration worldwide have already suffered the situation of the global metals market, in 2013 recorded a total of 15.2 billion dollars, a figure which represented a decrease of 29.3% over the last year.

2. Mexican Mininig Industry

The international context of the mining industry, characterized by limited demand and a downward trend in the prices of minerals, were decisive in 2013, the non-oil mining recorded negative a growth rate of 0.9%, according to the product gross domestic to constant prices 2008.

With this, the sector ends three years of expansion, after the global crisis in 2009, also in the result influenced slowdown in the domestic market, as the national economy recorded a growth rate of only 1.1%

Geography and Informatics (INEGI).

It should be noted however, that the decrease recorded by the sector is the lowest of recent cycles, and growth rates were the highest.

It was during the first half-year that the sector experienced the greatest difficulties, as in the first and second quarters recorded a negative rate of -2.9 and 3.2 percent. Although negative results were extended to the third quarter, the drop was smaller and as for the last three months of the year the sector output by recording a growth rate of 4.2%.

No doubt 2013 was of crisis for the sector, the impact of the lower metal prices was felt in this and other indicators, other circumstances already mentioned. However, is important to recognize that now has a strong mining sector, consolidated from the extensive and fruitful boom recently completed.

One of them is precisely to increase production volumes to compensate for losses in value as a result of the drop in prices, strategy played an important role in the recovery in the last quarter of the reporting year.

3. Mexican Mining Production

In 2013, the value of output at current prices, extended Mexican mining reached a total of 262.3 billion pesos (Mmp), amount represents a decrease of 9.9% over the previous year.

Source: Mexican Geological survey (SGM).

The main minerals of national production were gold (26.0%), silver (21.6%), copper (17.1%), zinc (4.6%), sand (3.9%), iron (3.0%) and gravel (2.8%), which together accounted for 79% of total value.

Main Mexican mining products 2013

The production of metallic minerals recorded a total of 201.4 billions of pesos (Mmp), representing 76.8% of total production and a decrease of 13.4% over the previous year.

The produced copper in 2013 decrease 6.9% over the previous year and amounted 409.2 thousand tonnes, which was accompanied by a decrease of 16.8% as far as refers to the monetary value.

The national production of lead recorded a decrease of 4.8% as far as refers to the volume with a total of 200.4 thousand tonnes, as to the value, the decrease was 4.0%.

As for the zinc production, this reached a value of 420.9 thousand tonnes, volume which represented a decrease of 15.8% compared to 2012. The value of this production represented a decrease annual of 19.9%.

The crisis experienced the sector in 2013 was reflected in a general decline in the value of production of major metals, also including the non-ferrous industrial minerals, molybdenum, selenium, cadmium, bismuth.

Instead, in terms of volume, the performance was heterogeneous, while some metals the trend was the same, of others increased volume produced to some extent compensated the decline experienced in the monetary value.

In the group of siderurgical minerals highlighted a increase of the 12.4% in the domestic production of manganese, which located at 211.5 thousand tonnes; which was supported by a increase of 20% in value.

Also showed a slight increase in the production of Iron pellets, the volumen recorded 8,093.5 thousand tonnes in 2013, 0.6% higher than that recorded the previous year. In terms of the value was showed a difference of only 0.1% compared to what was reached in 2012.

Therefore, the domestic production of coke recorded an increase of 2.3%, reaching a volume of 2,216.3 thousand tonnes; the coal production, however, recorded a volume of 13,065.3 thousand tonnes, which represented a decrease of 4.3% compared to what was reached in 2012.

Regarding the group of non-metallic minerals, highlighted the increases recorded in production volume of dolomite sand (314.8%), kaolin (132.4%), celestite (46.7%) and phosphate rock (28.6%).

Others minerals that presented a positive evolution in volumes of production, although less significant rates, were sulphur, gypsum, wollastonite, salt, diatomite, sodium sulfate and magnesium sulfate.
