Fresnillo PLC (OTCMKTS:FNLPF) is a London‐incorporated precious metals mining company with principal operations in Mexico. As the world’s largest primary silver producer, Fresnillo also ranks among Mexico’s leading gold, lead and zinc producers.

Key mining assets include the Fresnillo and Saucito mines in Zacatecas, the Ciénega mine in Durango, and the Herradura gold mine in Sonora.
