Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Information

This AIF and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian and United States securities legislation (collectively herein referred to as “forward-looking statements”), including the “safe harbour” provisions of provincial securities legislation, the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

When used in this AIF, any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events of performance (often but not always using words or phrases such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “plan”, “strategy”, “goals”, “objectives”, “project”, “potential” or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar expressions), as they relate to the Company or management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the Company’s current views with respect to future events and are subject to certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions, which are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control and many of which, regarding future business decisions, are subject to change. Assumptions underlying the Company’s expectations regarding forward-looking statements contained in this AIF include, among others:

Many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, among others:

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company’s forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain, and actual achievements of the Company or other future events or conditions may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including without limitation, those referred to in this AIF under the heading “Risk Factors” and documents incorporated by reference herein.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Company’s forward-looking statements are based on the reasonable beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made and, other than as required by applicable securities laws, the Company does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management’s beliefs, expectations or opinions should change. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not attribute undue certainty to or place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors

Unless otherwise indicated, technical disclosure regarding the Company’s properties included or incorporated by reference herein, including the use of the terms “Mineral Resources” and “Mineral Reserves”, and all Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates contained in such technical disclosure, has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) – CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the “CIM Definition Standards”). NI 43-101 is an instrument developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects.

Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K (the “SEC Modernization Rules”). The Company is not required to provide disclosure on its mineral properties under the SEC Modernization Rules and provides disclosure under NI 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards. Accordingly, information contained in this AIF, or the documents incorporated by reference herein, may differ significantly from the information that would be disclosed had the Company prepared the Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates under the standards adopted under the SEC Modernization Rules.

Cautionary Note to Investors Concerning Estimates of Mineral Resources

“Inferred Mineral Resources” are Mineral Resources for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated based on limited geological evidence and sampling. Geological evidence is sufficient to imply but not verify geological and grade or quality continuity. “Inferred Mineral Resources” are based on limited information and have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility, although it is reasonably expected that the majority of “Inferred Mineral Resources” could be upgraded to “Indicated Mineral Resources” with continued exploration.

Under Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them to enable them to be categorized as Mineral Resources and, accordingly, may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, or economic studies except for a Preliminary Economic Assessment as defined under NI 43-101. Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Resources do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Technical Information

Unless otherwise indicated, scientific or technical information in this AIF is based on information prepared by employees of MAG or by Fresnillo, as operator of Juanicipio, as applicable, under the supervision of, or that has been reviewed and approved by, Gary Methven, P.Eng., Vice President, Technical Services, who is a “Qualified Person” as defined in NI 43-101. A “Qualified Person” means an individual who: (i) is an engineer or geoscientist with a university degree, or equivalent accreditation, in an area of geoscience, or engineering, relating to mineral exploration or mining; (ii) has at least five years of experience in mineral exploration, mine development or operation or mineral project assessment, or any combination of these, that is relevant to his or her professional degree or area of practice; (iii) has experience relevant to the subject matter of the mineral project and the technical report; and (iv) is a member in good standing of a professional association. Mr. Methven is not independent as he is an employee of the Company (see “Interests of Management and Others in Material Transactions” below).

Notes:

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE BUSINESS

Overview

MAG Silver Corp. is a growth-oriented Canadian exploration company focused on advancing high-grade, district scale precious metals projects in the Americas. MAG Silver is a top-tier primary silver mining company through its (44%) interest in the 4,000 tonnes per day (“tpd”) Juanicipio mine, operated by Fresnillo plc (56%) (the “Juanicipio Mine” or “Juanicipio”). The Juanicipio Mine is located in the Fresnillo Silver Trend in Mexico, the world’s premier silver mining camp, where in addition to underground mine production and processing of high-grade mineralized material, an expanded exploration program is in place targeting multiple targets. MAG Silver is also executing multi-phase exploration programs at the Deer Trail 100% earn-in project in Utah (the “Deer Trail Project”) and the 100% owned Larder Project, located in the historically prolific Abitibi region of Canada (the “Larder Project”).

MAG’s Common Shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the NYSE American, LLC (“NYSE American”) both under the symbol “MAG”.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Principal Project

Juanicipio

MAG owns 44% of the Juanicipio Entities, which own the high-grade silver Juanicipio Mine located in the Fresnillo District, Zacatecas State, Mexico. Fresnillo is the operator and holds the remaining 56%.

Fresnillo and MAG jointly approved the Juanicipio Mine development on April 11, 2019, following which project construction commenced immediately and the underground mine development continued. Production and exploration at Juanicipio are all being carried out by the project operator, Fresnillo, with MAG being represented in all board of directors, technical committee, joint health and safety committee and ad-hoc meetings for the Juanicipio Entities. Commissioning of the processing facility commenced in Q1 2023 and was performed under the guidance of an Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management contract entered into with an affiliate of Fresnillo and various third-party start-up specialist consultants. MAG’s share of project costs was funded by operating cash flow from underground mine production, by cash calls through its 44% interest in Minera Juanicipio and, to a lesser extent, incurred directly by MAG to cover expenses related to its own commissioned technical studies and analyses, as well as direct project oversight. Minera Juanicipio is governed by a shareholders’ agreement and corporate by-laws, pursuant to which each shareholder is to provide funding pro-rata to its ownership interest (the “Shareholders’ Agreement”). An operator services agreement became effective upon initiation of commercial production whereby Fresnillo and its affiliates continue to operate the mine (the “Operator Services Agreement”) for a fee of $13 million per annum. Both silver-rich lead and zinc concentrate offtake agreements have been executed by Minera Juanicipio with Met-Mex Peñoles, S.A. de C.V. (“Met-Mex”) (an affiliate of Fresnillo), under which both concentrates are being sold and treated at benchmark market terms in Torreón, Mexico. The pyrite concentrate is generally sold to trading firms who blend the material with other concentrates to realize payable metal for Juanicipio.

Following commissioning and ramp up of the Juanicipio Mine in 2023, 2024 was a year of consolidation and optimization of the Juanicipio processing plant. All tonnage from the Juanicipio mine was processed through the processing plant, as toll treatment through Fresnillo’s Saucito plant during 2023 ceased once nameplate capacity of the Juanicipio plant was achieved. The plant processed 1,328,178 tonnes of ore at an average silver grade of 468g Ag/t, and an average silver equivalent grade of 712g AgEq/t. The main focus in 2024 was the optimization of the flotation circuit, and primary focus areas were continuous operation of the pyrite flotation and Knelson gravity concentrate circuits, and ongoing optimization of the lead and zinc flotation circuits. Significant recovery improvements were obtained over the 2023 levels, with overall recovery of 92.9% for silver, 73.8% for gold, 89.5% for lead and 81.0% for zinc. The mining rate is currently matching the milling rate at Juanicipio. Please refer to MAG’s news release dated January 29, 2025 entitled “MAG Announces Fourth Quarter and 2024 Production From Juanicipio and Provides Initial Production Guidance”, for full details.

Minera Juanicipio commissioned AMC Mining Consultants (Canada) Ltd. (“AMC”) to prepare the 2024 Technical Report on behalf of MAG. The 2024 Technical Report, published on March 27, 2024, outlined robust economics over an initial 13-year life of mine, generating annual average free cash flow exceeding $130 million (at a $22/oz silver price). Mineral Resources increased by 33% from the 2017 Preliminary Economic Assessment, with substantial growth in Measured and Indicated categories. Inferred resources also expanded, highlighting significant near-term, high-grade upside potential. An inaugural 15.4 million tonnes Mineral Reserve estimate at 628 grams per tonne (“g/t”) equivalent silver grade was declared, enhancing economic confidence.

Currently only 10% of the property has been explored to date with many untested targets still to be pursued within the property. Recent exploration drilling has primarily focused on converting the Inferred Mineral Resources into Indicated Mineral Resources, further tracing mineralization to depth, and testing for additional parallel mineralized structures.

The Valdecañas Vein contains a structural intersection marked by broad funnel-shaped skarn alteration with high copper and boron, indicative of a mineralising fluid upwelling zone. This is reflected by distinctive surface alteration – a thumbprint – that is being used to focus Juanicipio’s exploration program throughout the rest of the property The Company has an interest in concession rights in other non-material properties on which the exploration is managed directly by MAG. Exploration on these interests is undertaken by contracted service providers. In the case of projects located in Mexico, MAG’s work is contracted with third parties.

Other Exploration Properties

The Deer Trail Project

The silver-rich Deer Trail carbonate replacement deposit (“CRD”) project in Piute County, Utah offers MAG a 100% earn-in opportunity and encompasses the historic Deer Trail mine (the “Deer Trail Mine”) and the adjoining Alunite Ridge area (6,500 Ha). MAG consolidated these properties in 2018 for the first time since the early 1980s. The Deer Trail Project lies along the same regional structure that hosts several mega-districts of similar age and style, so this consolidation allows us to consider the entire system, apply an integrated district-scale exploration approach and leverage new technologies to aid in the search for new, large-scale mineralization along the path between the historic mines and a potential Porphyry Copper-Molybdenum centre.

MAG’s exploration focus at the Deer Trail Project is to seek the source of the historically mined high-grade silver, gold, lead, zinc and copper CRD sulphides of the Deer Trail manto towards that potential porphyry centre. The Company expects to find larger-scale high-grade mineralization in the thick, high-potential Redwall Limestone that the Company has proven lies just below the less favourable interlayered sedimentary and limestone section that hosts the historic Deer Trail Mine mineralization.

Exploration at the Deer Trail Project offers several strategic advantages, one of which is the fact that it shares the same regional fault as the renowned Bingham Canyon and Tintic mining districts, paving the way for potential discoveries of substantial porphyry and CRD deposits. Bingham Canyon is one of the world’s largest copper systems, featuring a porphyry copper surrounded by large-scale high-grade replacement (CRD) mineralization. MAG’s exploration thesis at the Deer Trail Project is to pursue the known CRD deposits that may possibly be sourced from a Bingham-like porphyry. These porphyry “hub” targets are defined through extensive surface work showing strong coincident geochemical, geophysical and alteration anomalies.

These “hubs” are thought to be the source of the fluids that created the Deer Trail Project area’s manto, skarn and epithermal vein mineralization and pervasive alteration seen throughout the Deer Trail Project area including the Deer Trail and Carissa zones. MAG is taking a disciplined, district-scale approach to exploration within this mining-friendly community and jurisdiction that also offers excellent infrastructure. MAG launched its sustainability programs at the Deer Trail Project in 2019, demonstrating the Company’s dedication to responsible mining practices. In 2020, drilling programs commenced, marking a significant step forward in unlocking the asset’s potential.

The Carissa Zone was discovered in 2023. Carissa represents the most widespread mineralization and strongest alteration drilled on the Deer Trail property. Two drill holes cut several hundred meters of progressively increasing Argentiferous (Silver-bearing) Manganese-Oxide Mineralization, marble and skarn before entering distinctive zones of copper-silver-zinc bearing sulfide “lacing”, in turn cut by zones of pervasive mineralized skarn. The sulfide lacing and skarn zones in both Carissa holes become progressively stronger with depth and showed significant increases in pathfinder elements (tungsten, tin, bismuth, molybdenum), suggesting increasing proximity to the suspected porphyry-related mineralization source.

During 2023, MAG undertook Phase 3 drilling programs designed to test the mineralization in the porphyry “hubs” inferred to underlie Mount Brigham and Deer Trail Mountain. The first hole was drilled to test the Alunite Ridge target on the south slope of Mount Brigham and a second hole drilled at a high angle under the Deer Trail Mountain. Initial drilling of the Alunite Ridge and Deer Trail Mountain hubs encountered porphyry-style alteration justifying further drilling.

The 2024 drill program was interrupted by the Silver King forest fire, however the highlights of recent drilling were:

Please refer to MAG’s news release dated February 24, 2025 entitled “MAG Provides Exploration Update and Outlook for Larder and Deer Trail Projects”, for full details.

Future “spoke” drilling is planned to offset the Carissa Zone discovery holes to the west and to follow-up on well mineralized intercepts and test entirely new target areas identified by geophysics, geochemistry and geochronology

The Larder Project

The Larder Project is situated in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt and hosts three gold zones along 8.5 km of the Cadillac-Larder Break (the “Break” or the “CLB”) in one of the world’s best gold regions where over 200 million ounces of gold have been produced. The Larder Project lies in a mining-friendly jurisdiction with a very long history of mining, and agreements with First Nations are in place with positive ongoing dialogue. No significant environmental legacies are known and infrastructure (including electrical, gas, highway, water) and access are excellent. Exploration costs in this region are relatively low and experienced labour is readily available. Permitting is streamlined, predictable and many newly identified targets can be drilled from existing permitted pads.

The Larder Project property includes several known shear-hosted (“orogenic”) gold mineralization centres located along approximately 8.5 km of strike length of the greater than 250 km long Break, a regional first-order shear structure. Unlike in many other shear-hosted gold deposits, mineralization occurs along the Break as concentrated ore shoots along the major first-order structure as well as on related second or third-order structures. A historic shallow exploration focus at the Larder Project means that mineralization is largely untested at depths greater than 500 m where most deposits in the region blossom.

MAG took ownership of Larder Project in 2022 through its acquisition of a 100% interest in Gatling Exploration Inc. (“Gatling”) and conducted a comprehensive data review and drilling campaign that focused below and lateral to mineralization shoots indicated by historical shallow drilling. In 2022, MAG drilled 10 holes, cumulatively 10,484 m, along the Break at depth and to the Bear East Zone of the project. Results proved geological features at depth, showing strong structures in favorable rock types verified at depths never recorded in the project’s history, and yielding positive assay results extending from the Bear East Zone.

In early 2023, MAG raised C$23 million by way of flow-through financing, with proceeds to fund further testing of known zones and generate new high-priority targets. The Swansea Zone drill program tested geophysical anomalies coincident with the CLB intercepting up to 50 m of alteration. This identified new targets as gold mineralization was encountered in six of seven drillholes with a 730 m strike length in green/brown carbonate altered komatiites, syenites and strongly altered mafic volcanics. The altered komatiites in this area at Swansea were never encountered in historical drill programs.

Later in 2023, a comprehensive review of all past drilling plus new geotechnical work, geophysical survey deployment, field sampling and mapping drove the creation of new 3D models for enhanced drill target selection. This work significantly improved property wide geological understanding and target generation. Following the completion of geophysical surveys and interpretation of stripped outcrops, a large pipeline of targets for 2024 was generated. Exploration drilling tested the Cheminis mine trend at depth and the Bear East Zone, with initial results from both zones being promising and helping to guide 2024 exploration.

Cinco de Mayo

In late 2012, certain members of the local Ejido challenged the Company’s surface right access to the Cinco de Mayo property (“Cinco”) located in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico and prevented the Company from obtaining the surface access permission required in the exploration permit process. As the Company has been unable to negotiate a renewed surface access agreement with the Ejido, a full impairment was recognized on the property in 2016; however, the concessions are still maintained in good standing. In September 2024, MAG and Apollo entered into an exploration, earn-in and option agreement pursuant to which Apollo has the option to acquire Cinco. In order for Apollo to exercise the Option, Apollo is required to obtain the necessary licensing to access and conduct exploration activities on Cinco, and subsequently complete no less than 20,000 metres of drilling, all within a five-year period, and then finally issue consideration shares equivalent to 19.9% of the then issued and outstanding common shares of Apollo to MAG.

Production

The following are the production highlights for the year ended December 31, 2023:

Drilling Program

The Juanicipio 2022 exploration (total of 25,858 metres drilled) focused primarily on converting Inferred Resources to Indicated Resources. Four holes were drilled at the “Los Tajos” target (formerly, “Cesantoni”) in the northwest part of the Juanicipio concession. Due to permitting restrictions, drilling used depth-limited man portable equipment at suboptimal angles. Results confirm the presence of mineralized epithermal veins. Veins cut in the program texturally and geochemically display high level characteristics coincident with what would be seen above a mineralized system. Further drilling will be required to prove or disprove the potential of this target. Infill drilling tested the Valdecañas Vein system at depth and further increased the confidence of the Deep Zone resource.

Year Ended December 31, 2024

Financing and Corporate Activities

On March 19, 2024, the Company announced that Marc Turcotte was promoted to the position of Chief Development Officer and, during early 2024, as part of the Company’s longer term succession planning, Dr. Lex Lambeck was promoted to the position of Vice President, Exploration.

On May 15, 2024, MAG announced that the TSX had accepted the Company’s Notice of Intention to Make a Normal Course Issuer Bid (“NCIB”). Under the NCIB, the Company may purchase for cancellation up to an aggregate of 8,643,374 Common Shares, representing approximately 10% of the public float (as defined in the rules and policies of the TSX) of the Common Shares as of May 8, 2024. As of March 24, 2025 no shares have been repurchased by the Company.

On May 21, 2024, the Company announced the retirement of Dr. Peter Megaw as MAG’s Chief Exploration Officer (“CXO”), a position he held for 10 of his over 20 years of service to the Company. Under his leadership, Juanicipio, one of the world’s leading silver deposits, was discovered, financed, developed and is now in operation. Since his retirement as CXO in May 2024, Dr. Megaw has continued to consult to the Company.

Juanicipio

On March 5, 2024, the Company reported preliminary 2024 guidance for the Juanicipio Mine, with the following highlights:

On March 27, 2024, the Company filed the 2024 Technical Report, which updated Mineral Resource estimates and declared Mineral Reserve estimates for the first time. For further information with respect to the 2024 Technical Report, please see the information set out under the heading “Mineral Projects – Juanicipio” in this AIF.

On July 24, 2024, the Company, alongside the Q2 2024 production results, increased its grade guidance for Juanicipio. The silver head grade is now expected to be between 420g/t and 460g/t for 2024, up from the previously guidance range of 380g/t to 420g/t.

Production

The following are the production highlights for the year ended December 31, 2024:

Drilling Program

During 2023, a total of 13,273 metres and 22,015 metres were drilled from surface and underground, respectively. Drilling for the year (both surface and underground) was designed to convert Inferred Resources to Indicated Resources, and continued to confirm defined mineralization as planned. Results of the Juanicipio 2023 exploration program were reported in the Company’s first quarter 2024 Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Throughout 2024, 36,216 metres were drilled from underground (3,216 metres more than planned) and focused on infilling the upper parts of the Valdecañas Vein System including the Valdecañas, Ramal 1, Anticipada and Venadas veins. Results continue to confirm vein continuity including grades and thicknesses.

Surface drilling started in April 2024 and has been focused on the Cañada Honda Structure, from which 13 holes have been completed since the beginning of the program. During 2024, 19,137 metres were drilled from surface (2,137 metres more than planned). Initial results show thin mineralized vein intercepts with textures and chemistry consistent with being at high level and possibly above a productive boiling zone. Some holes have been extended to intercept the Juanicipio vein below the inferred resource with an initial base metal rich intercept extending the Juanicipio vein by 450 metres downdip.

All assays from the 2024 drilling program were pending at year end.

Recent Developments (Subsequent to December 31, 2024)

On January 16, 2025, the Company announced the retirement of Michael Curlook as Vice President, Investor Relations and Communications.

On January 29, 2025, the Company reported preliminary 2025 guidance for the Juanicipio Mine. As reported by Fresnillo, silver production at Juanicipio is forecast to range between 14.7 million and 16.7 million ounces. This guidance is based on a throughput rate of 4,000 tonnes per operating day at head grade ranges of 380g/t to 430 g/t silver and 1.2 g/t to 1.4 g/t gold. Head grades are anticipated to fluctuate due to the balancing of the three subvertical ramps and the mining of different sections of the orebody. Production is expected to be weighted toward the second and third quarters of 2025, reflecting mine sequencing and anticipated grade variability. Comprehensive cost and production guidance will be provided with the release of the Company’s operational and financial results at the end of Q1 2025.

On February 3, 2025, MAG announced the appointment of John Armstrong to the Board, effective January 31, 2025, as part of the Company’s planned Board refreshment. Mr. Armstrong was also appointed to the Audit Committee, effective February 19, 2025.

On February 24, 2025, the Company provided an update on its exploration activities and 2025 outlook for its Larder and Deer Trail projects, which remain key components of the Company’s growth strategy. MAG reported that it continues to advance these two district-scale exploration projects, both of which demonstrate the potential to host significant high-grade mineralization. At both projects, systematic exploration including drill testing achieved the objectives of expanding known zones of mineralization, making new discoveries and outlining new high-potential drill targets.

On March 24, 2025, MAG announced that the Board has adopted a dividend policy for the Company, under which the Company intends to pay quarterly fixed dividends of $0.02 per share. In addition, at average realized silver prices of above $20 per ounce, the Company intends to augment the fixed dividend with a cashflow-linked dividend targeted at approximately 30% of cashflows from Juanicipio received by MAG every quarter and linked to net cash metrics as determined by the Board from time to time.

In the March 24, 2025 press release, MAG declared an inaugural fixed dividend of $0.02 per share and an additional cash flow linked dividend of $0.16 per share (approximately 30% of the $53,850,000 cash received from Juanicipio during Q4 2024) for a total dividend of $0.18 per share payable on April 21, 2025 to shareholders on record as of April 4, 2025 (the “Inaugural Dividend”). The dividend qualifies as an “eligible dividend” as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada).

The declaration, timing, amount, and payment of future dividends will be subject to the discretion and approval of the Board of Directors. The Company will review the dividend program on an ongoing basis and may amend it at any time depending on the Company’s then current financial position, capital allocation framework, profitability, cash flow, debt covenant compliance, legal requirements and other factors considered relevant. As such, aside from the Inaugural Dividend, no assurances can be made that any future dividends will be declared and/or paid. Dividends paid to shareholders outside Canada (non-resident investors) will be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding taxes.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Principal Markets

Metals are commonly sold as concentrates, often with several metals in a single concentrate. In the case of Juanicipio, lead (silver rich), zinc and pyrite concentrates are being produced. The lead concentrate contains silver, gold and lead, the zinc concentrate contains silver, gold and zinc and the pyrite concentrate contains silver, gold and iron. Lead, zinc and pyrite concentrates are commonly sold as part of the world’s mining and metals industries. Juanicipio lead and zinc concentrates are being sold and treated at benchmark market terms in Torreón, Mexico under offtake agreements with Met-Mex, an affiliate of Fresnillo. The basis of payments is the gross value of the metals that can be extracted and refined from the concentrates based on contained metal assays, with Met-Mex charging a base treatment charge and various deductions and payment terms as defined within the offtake agreements. The pyrite concentrate is generally sold to trading firms who blend the material with other concentrates to realize payable metal for Juanicipio.

Corporate Sustainability Matters  

The Company is committed to delivering lasting and sustainable value to its people, stakeholders and communities. The Company’s approach to sustainability and responsible development integrates health, safety, environment and social responsibility into its business strategy.  

The Company engages with groups that share its values and commitment to responsible mining. The Company’s commitment is supported by its policies, procedures and voluntary codes to which the Company adheres. The Company cares about the health and well-being of its people, communities and environment, and promotes a culture of zero harm. 

Juanicipio 

The Juanicipio Mine and property is located in the Fresnillo District of Mexico near Fresnillo’s Saucito and Fresnillo mines. As the operator of the Juanicipio Mine and of its wholly owned Saucito and Fresnillo mines, Fresnillo takes a ‘district approach’ to community relations in the area. The community relations team at Juanicipio often work in concert with their counterparts at the established Saucito and Fresnillo mines. 

At Juanicipio, social assessment surveys were conducted in late 2023 to evaluate corporate image and reputational and social capital. Building on these survey results, key initiatives in 2024 included a Social Involvement Program to strengthen trust among employees, contractors and communities. As social ambassadors, Juanicipio employees and contractors shared key messages with local communities. Extensive community projects were undertaken, focusing on education, health, capacity building and microenterprise development. Initiatives for the communities near Juanicipio included partnerships to advance education in science, mathematics and climate change, and school gardening programs to promote sustainable practices.  Additionally, community engagement was fostered through music and literacy education. Environmental outreach efforts included presentations to schools and community members on topics of importance such as climate change, waste management, clean water and drought mitigation.  

The economic development projects collaborate directly with the communities through a staged approach, with support from Juanicipio​. The approach aims to encourage the development of skills through productive projects moving towards self-sufficiency and the development of their local economies. These initiatives include the establishment and support of new microenterprises (bakery, jewelry workshop, cleaning product and biofertilizer businesses) through a phased, six-month support program from Juanicipio. The sewing collective is now self-sustaining and is one of Juanicipio’s approved suppliers. The nopal cactus (also known as prickly pear cactus) forage project remains one of the more successful productive projects, expanding from the original one-hectare pilot to a multi-family operation. It now includes two mills and a total of three hectares cultivated for both commercial sale and family livestock feed. 

Deer Trail Project and Larder Project 

Community engagement at the Deer Trail and Larder projects is managed directly by the Company, with stakeholder relations expanding through designed contributions to community events, sponsorships and initiatives where employees engage in smaller community activities. Community engagement efforts provide team members with opportunities to explain project strategy and performance, while receiving feedback and guidance on matters of importance to stakeholders, allowing for two-way communication.  

At the Larder Project there is an exploration agreement with two local First Nations that includes collaboration with an Environmental Elders Committee composed of representatives from the two First Nations and the Company.   The committee met on two occasions in 2024 and included a site tour of the project installations. In addition, the Company conducted a stakeholder mapping exercise at the Larder Project in 2024. The process, known as Stakeholder360, identifies stakeholders, their concerns, social capital networks and overall sentiment (social license) towards the Larder Project. At the Deer Trail Project, a second Stakeholder360 exercise is planned for 2025 as a follow-up to the project’s initial Stakeholder360 exercise, which was completed in 2023. 

Following the introduction of the grievance mechanism and social investment framework to the Larder Project in 2022, there have been zero incidents or concerns reported. Employees are given refresher training on how and when to use the feedback mechanism tool, highlighting that it is intended to improve communication and proactively resolve issues of concern. The social investment framework aims to emphasize collaboration with local communities and provide support through employee volunteerism, donations, sponsorships, development programs and projects. The grievance mechanism tool and social investment framework have also been used at the Company’s Deer Trail Project for many years.  There was one minor grievance recorded in 2021 related to damaged piping that was immediately resolved. There have been no grievances reported since then.

Health and Safety 

The Company is committed to the health and safety of its employees, consultants, business partners and communities in which the Company operates. The Company’s safety vision is to create a culture of zero harm and a workplace free of injuries and occupational illnesses. The Company requires its workers to participate in risk assessments involving their work, including job hazard analysis and field-level risk assessments, and workers are empowered to stop work if unsafe work practices or hazards are identified. 

Juanicipio 

The “I Care, We Care” safety management system has been fully adopted at Juanicipio and implementation is ongoing. The system identifies the most critical risks or risks with the greatest potential to harm individuals and, with collaboration from managers, supervisors, operators and contractors, implements the controls required to mitigate those risks. The system focuses on evaluating safety performance and monitors the progress of reducing High Potential Incidents and unsafe conditions in the workplace. There were no employee or contractor fatalities at Juanicipio in 2024.   

Deer Trail and Larder Projects 

Risk awareness and emergency preparedness continue to be key focal points in the proactive safety program at the Deer Trail and Larder projects. Both projects are participating in a Risk Competency and Integrated Medical Rescue Program developed for MAG. A specialized Internal Mountain Rescue Team was established through the program at Deer Trail to address emergency situations on site.  Training also included additional first aid and emergency response training, safe driving, and wildlife awareness training.  Employees continued to improve workplace safety inspections, hazard identification and risk mitigation techniques, and they participated in monthly risk scenario planning exercises.  

Additional safety training at the Larder Project in 2024 included proper preparation for seasonal conditions and driving, first aid and emergency response training, fire prevention, wildlife awareness training and discussions around safe working procedures. Employees received training to improve workplace safety inspection, hazard identification and risk mitigation techniques, and they participated in monthly risk scenario planning exercises.  

In 2024, there were no employee or contractor fatalities or lost time injuries recorded at the Deer Trail Project.  At the Larder Project, there were two lost time injuries involving contractor personnel. Safety systems and behaviour training is being intensified in this area.  

Environmental, Social and Governance Matters 

In 2024, the Company published its third annual sustainability report, which underscores MAG’s fundamental commitment to transparency with its stakeholders while providing a comprehensive overview of the Company’s environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) commitments, practices and performance for the 2023 year. The 2023 Sustainability Report is supported by the MAG Silver 2023 ESG Data Table, which houses MAG’s historical ESG performance data. The 2023 Sustainability Report and ESG Data Table are available on the MAG Silver website at the following link: https://magsilver.com/esg/reports/. Information contained in, or otherwise accessible through, the Company’s website, including the 2023 Sustainability Report and ESG Data Table, do not form part of this AIF and are not incorporated into this AIF by reference. 

The Company’s ongoing analysis of ESG matters continues to highlight the importance of climate change risks in the mining sector and at the Company’s projects and operation. In 2023, an initial Climate Risk and Opportunities Register for Juanicipio was discussed with Fresnillo personnel, and in 2024, a comprehensive ensemble-based climate assessment for Fresnillo (including Juanicipio) was performed. The results of this assessment will be described in MAG’s 2024 Sustainability Report, expected to be published in the third quarter of 2025. The Company also completed an update of the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (“TCFD”) report originally produced in 2021 and conducted a self-assessment of the Toward Sustainable Mining (“TSM”) Climate Change Protocol. Physical climate change risks from both assessments are included in MAG’s Risk Register and are reviewed regularly by the Enterprise Risk Advisory Committee (“ERAC”) and reported to the Board. The Board has established a Technical Committee (the “Technical Committee”) which, in conjunction with the Health, Safety, Environment and Community Committee (the “HSEC Committee”), reviews the technical aspects of safety and environmental risks, specifically climate change impacts and tailings management.

CARRYING ON BUSINESS IN MEXICO

The Company’s primary property interest is located in Mexico. A summary of the regulatory regime material to the business and affairs of the Company is provided below.

Mining Regulations

The exploration and exploitation of minerals in Mexico may be carried out by Mexican citizens or Mexican companies incorporated under Mexican law by means of obtaining concessions (covering exploration and exploitation). Due to the amendments to the Mexican Federal Mining Law (the “Federal Mining Law”) as of April 8, 2023, concessions are currently granted by the Mexican federal government for a period of thirty years from the date of their recording in the Public Registry of Mining. However, the period granted to those concessions issued before such amendment will continue to have their original term (i.e., 50 years). Likewise, the holders of mining concessions are authorized to carry out not only exploration work, but also exploitation works.

Holders of concessions may, within two years and until one year prior to the expiration of such concessions, apply for their renewal for a term of twenty-five years. Failure to apply prior to the expiration of the term of the concession will result in termination of the concession. Concessions are subject to annual work requirements and payment of mining duties which are assessed and levied on a semi-annual basis. Such concessions may be transferred or assigned by their holders, but such transfers or assignments must comply with the requirements established by the Federal Mining Law and be registered before the Public Registry of Mining in order to be valid against third parties. Such record has to be requested within the fifteen business days following the execution or notarization of the corresponding assignment of rights agreement.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Although the Ley de Inversión Extranjera (the Law of Foreign Investment) provides that mineral concessions may also be obtained by foreign citizens or foreign corporations, the Mexican Federal Mining Law provides that such concessions may only be granted to Mexican citizens or Mexican corporations. Thus, foreign citizens or corporations may only obtain mineral concessions through the establishment of a subsidiary in Mexico. Foreign investment in Mexican companies must comply with certain requirements set forth in the Law of Foreign Investment.

The Federal Mining Law does not require payment of finder’s fees or royalties to the Government, except for: (i) a mining royalty fee of 8.5% and a 1% extraordinary governmental fee on precious metals (see “Mining Fees” below); and (ii) a discovery premium or economic consideration in connection with claims or allotments contracted directly from the Mexican Geological Service that have been awarded pursuant to a public bid process. Holders of mining concessions are also required to pay mining concession fees which are assessed and levied on a semi-annual basis and charged at a per hectare rate that increase over time the longer the concessions are held.

On March 28, 2023, a legislative initiative aimed at amending multiple legal codes, including the Federal Mining Law, was presented to the Mexican Congress by the President of Mexico. The amendments pertain to, among other matters, granting of future mining permits and transfer of permits, shortening concession life, granting of future water permits, granting of exploration permits on behalf of exploration companies to the Mexican Geological Services, mine reclamation, profit-sharing requirements to distribute at least 7% of profits to local indigenous communities and management of mine waste. This initiative underwent a series of reviews and modifications, culminating in preliminary approval by the lower house of Congress, the Chamber of Deputies, on April 20, 2023. On April 29, 2023, the Mexican Senate approved the legislation. The amendments were approved by Mexico’s Federal Executive Branch and published in the Official Gazette of the Mexican Federation on May 8, 2023 bringing the amendments into law on May 9, 2023. The Company is conducting a thorough review and evaluation of potential implications specifically concerning its 44% interest in Juanicipio, including the treatment of concessions issued under previous legislation. Numerous legal challenges to the legality and constitutionality of several aspects of these changes have been filed with various Mexican courts and are pending adjudication. For further information, see “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Regulatory Environment – Amendments to the Mexican Federal Mining Law.”

Foreign Investment Regulation

Foreign investment regulation in Mexico is primarily governed by the Law of Foreign Investment and its regulations. Foreign investment of up to 100% in Mexican mining companies is permitted. Companies with foreign investment in their capital stock must be registered with the National Registry of Foreign Investment which is maintained by the Ministry of Economy, and file certain reports and notices, including in certain circumstances, and under criterion determined by the Law of Foreign Investment, an annual report with respect to the operations carried out during the preceding fiscal year and/or quarterly reports with respect to the operations carried out during the preceding calendar quarter, which are necessary in order to renew their certificate of record with such registry.

Environmental Regulations

Mexico has federal, state and municipal laws and regulations, as well as international agreements related to the protection of the environment and natural resources (the “Environmental Laws”), including laws and regulations concerning water pollution, air pollution, noise pollution, hazardous substances and forest protection. The main federal Environmental Law in Mexico is the Ley General del Equilibrio Ecológico y la Protección al Ambiente (the General Law of Ecological Balance and Environmental Protection or the General Law), pursuant to which general environmental rules and policies have been promulgated addressing air pollution, hazardous substances and environmental impact among various others.

Another federal law particularly relevant for the mining sector is the Ley General para la Gestión Integral de los Residuos (the General Law for Integrated Waste Management) and its regulations the Reglamento de la Ley General para la Prevención y Gestión Integral de los Residuos (the Regulations to the General Law for Integrated Waste Prevention and Management), which regulate the generation, handling, transportation, storage and final disposal of hazardous waste, as well as the import and export of hazardous materials and hazardous wastes, and assign liability for ownership and possession of contaminated sites and for contaminating activities. The Ley General de Desarrollo Forestal Sustentable (the General Law of Sustainable Forestry Development) and its regulations are also relevant, as they address reforestation obligations and compensation measures on projects which may have a deforestation impact, which may include mining projects.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

On June 7, 2013, the Ley Federal de Responsabilidad Ambiental (the Federal Law of Environmental Liability) was enacted, under which any person or entity that directly or indirectly (for action or omission) causes damage to the environment, will be held liable and obliged to: (i) repair the damage, or in the event that such repair is not possible; and (ii) pay compensatory damages, subject to a corresponding judicial, administrative or criminal proceeding.

Applicable Environmental Laws contemplate the creation and regulation of Areas Naturales Protegidas (Natural Protected Areas), which along with Programas de Ordenamiento Ecológico (Ecological Ordinance Programs), constitute two of the main instruments that will regulate the use of land in the areas within their jurisdiction, including restrictions on certain activities and sectors, such as the mining sector.

In addition, there are a series of “Mexican Official Norms” which are technical standards issued by competent regulatory authorities, pursuant to the Ley General de Metrología y Normalización (the General Law of Metrology and Standardization) and to other laws that include the aforementioned Environmental Laws, which establish standards relating to air emissions, waste water discharges, the generation, handling and disposal of hazardous wastes (including specific Mexican Official Norms for the handling of mining tailings, which are considered mining hazardous wastes) and noise control, among others. There are Mexican Official Norms regarding soil contamination (mainly with total petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals) and waste management (the “Ecological Standards”). Of particular importance to the mining sector are Mexican Official Norms NOM-120-SEMARNAT-2011 regulating environmental protection of mining activities in certain zones, and NOM-141-SEMARNAT-2003 which addresses certain aspects of tailings from mining activities, among other Ecological Standards applicable to mining activities.

The Secretaría de Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales (the Ministry of the Environment and Natural Resources or SEMARNAT, for its initials in Spanish) is the federal agency in charge of establishing and overseeing environmental regulation at the federal level, including the General Law and federal statutes and the Environmental Laws, as well as the Ecological Standards. On enforcement matters the SEMARNAT acts mainly through the Procuraduría Federal de Protección al Ambiente (the Federal Bureau of Environmental Protection or PROFEPA, for its initials in Spanish) and in certain cases through other governmental entities under its control, such as the Comisión Nacional del Agua (the National Water Commission).

Environmental Laws also regulate environmental protection in the mining industry in Mexico. In order to comply with these laws, a series of permits, licenses and authorizations must be obtained by a concession holder during the exploration and exploitation stages of a mining project. Generally, these permits and authorizations are issued on a timely basis after the completion of an application and the fulfillment of the necessary requirements by a concession holder. Additionally, periodic reporting of hazardous wastes and federal air emissions and federal wastewater discharges to Federal authorities is required under the Environmental Laws. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, all of the Company’s property interests are currently in compliance with the applicable Environmental Laws.

The possible impact on the Company’s operations from noncompliance or delays in required environmental approvals are discussed below in “Risk Factors”, specifically “Environmental regulations are becoming more onerous to comply with, and the cost of compliance with environmental regulations and changes in such regulations may reduce the profitability of the Company’s operations and the Juanicipio Entities’ operations.”

There are also legal and environmental obligations required to restore a mining operation to certain local standards upon closing the Company’s mining operations. The required restoration activities include demobilization and removal of structures, mine rehabilitation, plant dismantling, as well as sanitation and reforestation of affected areas. The obligation generally arises when the mine is developed, and the environment is altered at the place of production. The Company records and accrues closure cost estimates on its property interests.

Indigenous Communities

In the case of a mineral claim located within a land where an Indigenous or Afro-Mexican town or community is located, before issuing the corresponding mining concession title, the Ministry of Economy first needs to obtain the consent from such town or community approving the development of a mine.

In addition, the applicant must carry out a social impact assessment and obtain the authorization for the environmental impact statement, as well as to carry out the prevention, mitigation and indemnification measures.

Currency

The official monetary unit of Mexico is the Mexican peso. The currency exchange rate freely floats and the country has no currency exchange restrictions. Nevertheless, following the significant devaluation of the Mexican peso in December 1994, uncertainties continue with respect to the financial situation of Mexico and the volatility of the Mexican peso. See “Risk Factors” below, specifically those risk factors dealing with currency fluctuation and inflation.

The following table presents a five-year history of the average annual exchange rates to convert one United States dollar into Mexican pesos, calculated by using the average of the exchange rates on the last day of each month during the given year.

Value Added Tax (“VAT”) also known as “IVA” (Mexico)

In Mexico, VAT is charged on the sale of goods, rendering of services, lease of goods and importation of the majority of goods and services at a rate of 16%. Proprietors selling goods or services must collect VAT on behalf of the Mexican Government. Goods or services purchased incur a credit for VAT paid. The resulting net VAT is then remitted to, or collected from, the Government of Mexico through a formalized filing process.

Lagartos has traditionally held a VAT receivable balance due to the expenditures it incurs whereby VAT is paid to the vendor or service provider. Collections of these receivables from the Government of Mexico often take months and sometimes years to recover, but Lagartos has to date been able to recover all of its VAT paid. The Juanicipio Entities also hold VAT receivable balance, and the collections of these receivables, if not recovered on a timely basis, can be credited against VAT payable.

Income Tax Regime (Mexico)

The corporate tax rate in Mexico is 30%.

Dividends (Mexico)

Dividends paid from accumulated previously taxed earnings by Mexican companies to foreign residents of Mexico are subject to withholding tax at the 10% rate. However, dividends in excess of previously taxed earnings are subject to the corporate tax rate on a grossed-up basis at the distributing company level. The effective rate after gross-up is 42.86%. For this purpose, Mexican businesses must maintain a previously taxed earnings account (Cuenta de Utilidad Fiscal Neta, or CUFIN).

Under existing Canada-Mexico tax treaties, this dividend withholding tax rate is reduced to 5%. 

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Profit Sharing (Mexico)

Mexican companies are required to distribute to its employees 10% of the company’s adjusted taxable income of the business (known as PTU). The PTU base is similar to taxable income for income tax purposes with certain exceptions, including no carry forwards of net operating losses. All employees have a right to receive the PTU, with the exception of managing directors and board members. The PTU was subject to review along with the amendments to the Federal labour law on outsourcing (see “Amendments to the Federal labour law on labour subcontracting (or ”outsourcing“)” under the “Risk Factors” heading below) and now is capped at either three months’ salary or the average of the distribution of profits made to the employee in the past three years, whichever is more favourable to the employee.

Tax Losses (Mexico)

Net operating losses (“NOLs”) may be carried forward for 10 years; however, no carryback is allowed. The amount of NOLs that may be used in a particular tax year is adjusted for inflation for the period from the first month of the second half of the tax year when the loss was incurred until the last month of the first half of the tax year when the NOL is used.

Mining Fees (Mexico)

The Mexican legislation includes several mining fees, which were recently modified by amendments to the Federal Governmental Duties Law published on the Mexican Official Gazette of the Federation on December 19, 2024, effective January 1, 2025. The fees are as follows:

Mining concession holders that fail to develop mining works in accordance with the Federal Mining Law, during a consecutive two-year period within the first eleven years of the term of the concession, will pay on a semi-annual basis an additional mining fee equivalent to 50% to the maximum current mining duty. If the failure to carry out works remains unchanged, starting on the twelfth year, the additional fee will be doubled.

Tax Law for the State of Zacatecas

The Government of the State of Zacatecas published the Ley de Hacienda del Estado de Zacatecas (the Tax Law for the State of Zacatecas), which came into effect on January 1, 2017 and imposes environmental taxes on activities, such as: (i) extraction of materials other than those regulated by the Federal Mining Law; (ii) emissions to the atmosphere; (iii) discharges of industrial waste into the soil and water; and (iv) deposit of industrial waste.

The Juanicipio Entities’ operations are in the State of Zacatecas, and this tax law applies to the Juanicipio Mine. Minera Juanicipio challenged the legality of such taxes and in 2017 obtained an injunctive relief from a federal court, but the State of Zacatecas appealed this decision. In 2019, the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation issued a final ruling on the matter with respect to Minera Juanicipio, in which the Court determined that:

The annual cost to Minera Juanicipio of complying with the two taxes is not considered significant at this time and management’s assessment is that it will not have an impact on the viability of Juanicipio.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in the Company’s securities involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this AIF, investors should carefully consider the risks described below before purchasing the Company’s securities. If any of the following risks actually occur, the Company’s business, financial condition, financial performance and prospects could materially suffer. As a result, the trading price of the Company’s securities, including the Common Shares, could decline and investors might lose all or part of their investment. The risks set out below are not the only risks the Company faces; risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that are currently deemed to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, financial performance and prospects. Investors should also refer to and carefully consider the information disclosed in the Company’s Canadian and U.S. regulatory filings available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and the SEC website at www.sec.gov, as such information may be modified herein, prior to making an investment in the Company.

Risks Relating to the Company’s Business Operations

Estimates of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are based on interpretation and assumptions and are inherently imprecise.

The Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve figures referred to in the 2024 Technical Report, this AIF and the documents incorporated herein by reference have been determined and valued based on assumed future prices, cut-off grades and operating costs. However, until mineral deposits are actually mined and processed, any Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves must be considered estimates only. Any such estimates are expressions of judgment based on knowledge, mining experience, analysis of drilling results and industry practices. Estimates can be imprecise and depend upon geological interpretation and statistical inferences drawn from drilling and sampling analysis, which may prove to be unreliable. In addition, the grade and/or quantity of precious metals ultimately recovered may differ from that indicated by drilling results. Further, estimates of Mineral Reserves may not be able to be mined or processed profitably.

There can be no assurance that precious and base metals recovered in small-scale tests will be duplicated in large-scale tests under on-site conditions or in production scale. The grades of the reported Mineral Resource estimates are uncertain in nature and it is uncertain whether further technical studies will result in an upgrade to them. Further drilling on the deeper mineralized zones is required to complement the current metallurgical test work and add confidence in the continuity of mineralized zones in comparison to the current block model. Any material change in the quantity of mineralization, grade or mineralization to waste ratio or extended declines in market prices for silver and to a lesser extent prices for gold, zinc, and lead, may render portions of the Company’s mineralization uneconomic and result in reduced reported mineralization. Any material reductions in estimates of mineralization, or of the Company’s ability to extract this mineralization, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

There is no guarantee that licenses and permits required by the Company or Minera Juanicipio to conduct business will be obtained, which may result in an impairment or loss in the Company’s mineral properties.

The Company’s and Minera Juanicipio’s current and anticipated future operations, including further exploration, development and production activities on the Company’s properties, require permits from various national, state/provincial and local governmental authorities. The Company and Minera Juanicipio may not be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits that may be required to carry out exploration, development and mining operations at their projects. In addition, the grant of required licenses and permits may be delayed for reasons outside the Company’s and Minera Juanicipio’s control. Failure to obtain such licenses and permits on a timely basis, or failure to comply with the terms of any such licenses and permits that the Company and Minera Juanicipio do obtain, may adversely affect their respective business as the Company and Minera Juanicipio would be unable to legally conduct their intended exploration, development, production of a commercially viable material, or mining work, which may result in increased costs, delay in activities or the Company or Minera Juanicipio losing its interest in its mineral properties.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Rights to use the surface of the Company’s mineral properties are not guaranteed.

The mineral properties in which the Company has an interest are generally located in remote and relatively uninhabited areas. Some properties, like Juanicipio, are near towns and other habitations, but there are currently no areas of interest to the Company within its mineral concessions that are overlain by significant habitation or industrial users. However, there are potential overlapping surface usage issues in some areas. Some surface rights are owned by local communities or “Ejidos” and some surface rights are owned by private ranching or residential interests. The Company will be required to negotiate the acquisition of surface rights in those areas where it may wish to develop mining operations. In some areas the Company has been required or is in the process of negotiating compensation for surface rights holders in order to secure right of access. In some areas, surface right compensation has been negotiated and is awaiting formal government approval. The Company’s interest in a property or project could be adversely affected by an inability to obtain surface access permissions, or by challenges, regardless of merit, to existing surface access agreements.

There has been a trend in Mexico of increasing Ejido challenges to existing surface right usage agreements. The Company has already been impacted by this trend at its Cinco de Mayo project. Any further challenges to the access or exploration of any of the properties in which the Company has an interest may have a negative impact on the Company, as the Company may incur delays and expenses in defending such challenge and, if the challenge is successful, the Company’s interest in a property could be materially adversely affected.

At the Larder Project in Ontario, the Company has an exploration agreement in place with two local First Nations.

Most exploration projects do not result in commercially mineable deposits.

Exploration for minerals and development of mining projects is a highly speculative venture necessarily involving substantial risk. The expenditures made by the Company on exploration and development described herein may not result in discoveries of commercial quantities of minerals.

The commercial viability of a mineral deposit is dependent upon a number of factors which are beyond the Company’s control, including but not limited to the attributes of the deposit, commodity prices, government policies and regulation and environmental protection. Fluctuations in the market prices of minerals may render resources and deposits containing relatively lower grades of mineralization uneconomic. Further exploration or delineation will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility of any of the Company’s properties is determined. Even if the Company completes its exploration programs and is successful in identifying additional mineral deposits, it will have to spend substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before it will know if it has a commercially viable mineral deposit. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable mineral deposits.

Estimates of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources, mineral deposits and production costs can be affected by such factors as environmental permit regulations and requirements, Indigenous communities’ rights, weather, environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties, unusual or unexpected geological formations and work interruptions. As a result, there is a risk such estimates are inaccurate. There can be no assurance that precious metals recovered in small-scale tests will be duplicated in large-scale tests under on-site conditions or in production scale. The probability of an individual prospect ever having Mineral Reserves is extremely remote. If a property does not contain any Mineral Reserves, any funds spent on exploration and development of that property will be lost. The failure of the Company to find additional economic mineral deposits on its exploration concessions will have a negative effect on the Company.

The material property in which the Company has an interest is located in Mexico.

The Company’s primary operations are currently conducted in a foreign jurisdiction, Mexico, and, as such, the Company’s operations are exposed to various levels of political, economic, social and other such risks and uncertainties. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, extreme fluctuations in currency exchange rates; high rates of inflation; labour unrest; the risks of war or civil unrest; expropriation and nationalization; renegotiation or nullification of existing concessions, licenses, permits and contracts; illegal mining; changes in taxation policies; prohibitions or restrictions for carrying out mining activities due to legal actions by Indigenous communities; restrictions on foreign exchange and repatriation; and changing political conditions, currency controls and governmental regulations that favour or require the awarding of contracts to local contractors or require foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction. In addition, there have recently been reports of increased domestic and international political unrest, police and military enforcement action against drug cartels and a corresponding increase in violent crime in Mexico.

Criminal activities, or the perception that criminal activities are likely, may disrupt operations, hamper the ability to hire and keep qualified personnel and impair access to sources of capital. Risks associated with conducting business in the region include risks related to personnel safety and asset security. Risks may include, but are not limited to, kidnappings of employees and contractors, exposure of employees and contractors to local crime related activity and disturbances, exposure of employees and contractors to drug trade activity, and damage or theft including future precious metal shipments, if any. These risks could result in serious adverse consequences including personal injuries or death, property damage or theft, limiting or disrupting operations, restricting the movement of funds, impairing contractual rights and causing the Company to shut down operations, all of which may expose the Company to costs as well as potential liability. Such events could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial condition and make it more difficult for the Company to obtain required financing. Although the Company is developing procedures regarding these risks, due to the unpredictable nature of criminal activities, there is no assurance that the Company’s efforts will effectively mitigate risks and safeguard personnel and Company property.

Mexico is currently subject to political instability, changes and uncertainties, which may cause changes to existing governmental regulations affecting mineral exploration and mining activities. Mexico’s status as a developing country may make it more difficult for the Company to obtain any required financing for its projects. Any changes in governmental laws, regulations, economic conditions or shifts in political attitudes or stability in Mexico are beyond the control of the Company, and may adversely affect the Company’s business, including its interest in Juanicipio.

Economic and political instability may affect the Company’s business.

The volatile global economic environment has created market uncertainty and volatility in recent years. Recent negative market trends and periods of instability in the market for metal commodities and related products as a result of global economic uncertainty, reduced confidence in financial markets and other macro-economic events that have been experienced in recent years, such as shifts in monetary policy in response to COVID-19, supply chain disruptions and/or heightened rates of inflation. These macro-economic events negatively affected the mining and minerals sectors in general, and the Company’s market capitalization has been significantly reduced in periods of market instabilities. Many industries, including the mining industry, are impacted by these market and economic conditions. Global financial conditions remain subject to sudden and rapid destabilizations in response to economic shocks.

A slowdown in the financial markets or other economic conditions, including but not limited to consumer spending, employment rates, business conditions, rates of inflation, fuel and energy costs, consumer debt levels, lack of available credit, cost of available credit, the state of the financial markets, interest rates and tax rates, may adversely affect the Company’s growth and profitability. Future economic shocks may be precipitated by a number of causes, including political conflict and unrest, world health pandemics, a significant rise or significant decrease in the price of oil and other commodities, supply chain disruptions, increases in inflation rates, the volatility of metal prices, geopolitical instability, terrorism, the devaluation and volatility of global stock markets and natural disasters. Any sudden or rapid destabilization of global economic conditions could impact the Company’s ability to obtain equity or debt financing in the future on terms favorable to the Company or at all. In such an event, the Company’s operations and financial condition could be adversely impacted.

There are no assurances with respect to the relative strength and stability of future metal markets. The Company’s liquidity and long-term ability to raise the capital required to execute its business plans may be affected by market volatilities.

The Company’s future profitability and the viability of development depends in part upon the world market price of silver, and to a lesser extent other metals including gold, lead, zinc and copper. Prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control. The price of silver is influenced by factors including industrial and retail supply and demand, exchange rates, inflation rates, changes in global economies, confidence in the global monetary system, forward sales of silver and other metals by producers’ market activities, and speculators, as well as other global or regional political, social or economic events. The supply of silver and other metals consists of a combination of new mine production and existing stocks held by governments, producers, speculators and consumers, which could increase due to improved mining and production methods.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Prices and availability of commodities consumed or used in connection with exploration, development and mining, such as natural gas, diesel, oil and electricity, fluctuate and are subject to potential inflationary pressures, and these fluctuations affect the costs of production at various operations. These fluctuations can be unpredictable, can occur over short periods of time and may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operating costs or the timing and costs of various projects.

The Company assesses on a quarterly basis the carrying values of its mineral properties. Should market conditions and commodity prices worsen and persist in a worsened state for a prolonged period of time, an impairment of the Company’s mineral properties may be required.

Community relations may affect the Company’s business, including its interest in Juanicipio.

Maintaining a positive relationship with the communities in which the Company operates, including with respect to Juanicipio, is critical to continuing successful exploration, development and mining operations. As Fresnillo is the operator of Juanicipio, the community relations maintained with respect to that project lie outside the direct control of the Company. Community support for operations is a key component of a successful exploration, development and operation of a mine or exploration/development project. As a business in the mining industry, the Company may come under pressure in the jurisdictions in which it explores, develops and operates, to demonstrate that other stakeholders benefit and will continue to benefit from the Company’s commercial activities. The Company may face opposition with respect to the Company’s current and future development, exploration projects and mining operations which could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and share price.

The Company’s activities may be impacted by a global pandemic or severe disease outbreak.

A pandemic, similar to the COVID-19, or any future emergence and spread of similar pathogens could have an adverse impact on global economic conditions (including monetary policy and inflation) which may adversely impact the Company’s operations and the operations of the Company’s suppliers, contractors and service providers, and may negatively impact future financial periods in the event of prolonged disruptions associated with the pandemic. A sustained slowdown in global growth or demand, or a significant slowdown, could have an adverse effect on the price and/or demand for the Company’s products. A global pandemic and the efforts to contain it, including any future restrictions on travel or other advisories issued, may have a significant effect on metal prices and demand, and potentially broader impacts on the global economy.

The economic impact of a pandemic may cause reduced customer demand, supply chain disruptions and increased government regulations, all of which may negatively impact the Company’s business and financial condition.

In addition, any future emergence and spread of novel pathogens, could have a material adverse impact on global economic conditions, which may adversely impact: the market price of the Common Shares, the Company’s operations, its ability to raise debt or equity financing for the purposes of mineral exploration and development, delay of certain infrastructure contracts, and the operations of the Company’s suppliers, contractors and service providers.

Emerging climate change regulations could result in significant costs and climate change may result in physical risks to a mining company’s operations.

Governments are moving to introduce climate change legislation and treaties at the international, national, state/provincial and local levels. Regulations relating to greenhouse gas emission levels (such as carbon taxes) and energy efficiency are becoming more stringent. If the current regulatory trend continues, and the increased transitional risks evolve as society and industry work to reduce their reliance on carbon, the operating costs could increase at the Company’s operations. In addition, the physical risks of climate change may also have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations. These physical risks include changes in rainfall rates, rising sea levels, reduced water availability, higher temperatures, increased snowpack and extreme weather events. Such events could materially disrupt the Company’s operations if they affect the Juanicipio site, impact local infrastructure or threaten the health and safety of the Company’s or Fresnillo’s employees and contractors, and there can be no assurances that the Company or Fresnillo as operator of Juanicipio will be able to predict, respond to, measure, monitor or manage the physical risks posed as a result of climate change factors. Climate-related risks could also result in shifts in demand for certain commodities, including precious metals. The Company’s own operations are exposed to climate-related risks as a result of geographical location. The Company has sought to reduce its environmental footprint and located its operations in appropriate facilities; however, the Company’s operations may be adversely affected by climate change factors. Therefore, such an event could result in material economic harm to the Company.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Company acknowledges international and community concerns around climate change. The Company supports initiatives consistent with international initiatives on climate change. However, the increased government regulation may result in increased costs at some of its mining operations if the current regulatory trend continues.

The occurrence of any climate change violation or enforcement action may have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations, the Company’s reputation and could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations. Environmental hazards magnified by third parties may exist on a property in which the owners or operators are not aware and which could impair commercial success, levels of production and continued feasibility of mining operations on these properties.

Risks Relating to Financing the Company’s Business Operations

Adequate funding may not be available, resulting in the possible loss or dilution of the Company’s interests in its properties.

Sufficient funding may not be available to the Company for further exploration, development and operation of its property interests. Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration, development and operation of the Company’s properties. If the Company becomes unable to meet its share of costs incurred under agreements to which it is a party, the Company may have its property interests subject to such agreements reduced as a result or even face termination of such agreements. In the case of Juanicipio, all costs relating to the project are required to be shared by the Company and Fresnillo pro-rata based on their ownership interests in the Juanicipio Entities, and if either party does not fund pro-rata, their ownership interest will be diluted in accordance with the Shareholders’ Agreement.

The Company has an option to earn-in to the Deer Trail Project, and also has options to acquire interests in other mineral property claims. In order to obtain ownership of such mineral claims, it must make payments to the current owners and incur certain exploration expenditures on those properties. The requisite aggregate exploration expenditures have been spent by MAG as at the end of December 2024.

The Company may not have sufficient funds to: (a) fund its proportionate share of the Juanicipio Entities required capital contributions; (b) fund the royalty payments under the option agreement governing the Company’s option to consolidate and acquire 100% of the Deer Trail Project and surrounding Alunite Ridge area in Piute County, Utah; (c) make the minimum expenditures to maintain its properties, including the Larder Project in good standing under applicable laws; (d) make the corresponding payments of semi-annual governmental (mining) duties to maintain its properties in good standing under applicable law; and (e) make the minimum expenditures to earn its interest in such properties. In such event, in respect of any of the properties, the Company may dilute its interest in such property interest, seek to enter into a partnership or joint venture, sell the subject property or elect to terminate its option.

The Company may require new capital to continue to operate its business and to continue with exploration, development and operation of its properties, and additional capital may not be available when needed, if at all.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Substantial expenditures are required for commercial operations and if financing for such expenditures is not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to justify commercial operations.

Substantial expenditures are required to establish and process Mineral Reserves through drilling, to develop processes to extract the Mineral Resources and, in the case of new properties, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for extraction. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major deposit, Mineral Resources may not be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify continued commercial operations, or the funds required for development may not be obtained at all or on terms acceptable to the Company.

The Company’s expenditures are currently funded from its cash balances, which are the proceeds of loan repayments from Juanicipio as well as previous equity financings. The Company may require additional capital in the future from either equity or debt offerings to meet its project-related expenditures, as it is possible that the Company will not generate sufficient cash flow to meet all of its future expenditure requirements.

The Company’s future liquidity may depend upon its ability to repatriate cash from Juanicipio or arrange significant additional debt or equity financing.

The Company’s future liquidity may depend upon the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development of its interests and achieve profitable production or, alternatively, upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its interests on a profitable basis. Given the Company incurred losses from inception to 2020, and does not have any operating cash flow within its control, there can be no assurance that positive cash flows generated by Juanicipio will be distributed to the Company, additional capital or financing will be available if needed, or that, if available, the terms of such financings will be acceptable to the Company. If the Company raises additional funds through the sale of equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities, shareholders may have their equity interest in the Company diluted.

The Company has a history of losses and values attributed to the Company’s assets may not be realizable.

The Company has a history of losses and, prior to 2020, no income from its investment in Juanicipio. The revenues generated at Juanicipio in 2020-2024 from processing mineralized development material through the Fresnillo processing plants, and in 2023 and 2024 from the commercial production of mineralized development material at the Juanicipio plant, net of processing and treatment charges, were being used by the Juanicipio Entities to offset initial project capital and working capital cash requirements.

Prior to 2020, the Company had no proven history of performance, earnings or success. The amounts attributed to the Company’s exploration concessions in its financial statements represent acquisition, exploration and development costs and should not be taken to represent realizable value with certainty. The Company anticipates continued losses until a project enters commercial production on a profitable basis. If the Company is unable to generate revenues with respect to its properties on a consistent basis, the Company will not be able to earn profits which would adversely affect its business and prospects.

The Company has historically had negative cash flows.

The Company has experienced net losses in the past and may incur similar losses in the future until and unless it can derive sufficient cash flows from its investments in mineral projects. Future negative cash flows could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Common Shares.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Company faces risks related to the Facility

The Facility includes certain customary restrictive covenants. The Company does not currently anticipate any significant risk in complying with the financial ratios or financial covenants contained in the Facility. However, if the current facts and circumstances faced by the Company were to change to unexpected operational issues or due to other factors beyond the Company’s control, such changes could result in the Company being subject to certain restrictions under, or being found in default of, the Facility. Future exploration work and development of the properties in which the Company has an interest may depend upon the Company’s ability to repatriate capital from its interest in the Juanicipio Mine, obtain financing through joint venturing of projects, raise additional debt or equity financing, maintain the Facility or raise financing through other means. Failure to gain access to such financing on a timely basis may have an adverse impact on the business of the Company.

Risks Relating to the Development and Operation of Juanicipio

The Company is subject to uncertainties and risks relating to the operation of the Juanicipio Mine.

The Company is subject to inherent uncertainties and risks related to the operation of the Juanicipio Mine, the principal of which include: problems with the processing plant; delays and cost overruns associated with contractors; delays and cost overruns associated with production timelines; budget overruns due to changes in costs of power, fuel, labour, materials and supplies; underground development; and potential opposition from non-governmental organizations, environmental groups or local groups which may delay or prevent activities.

Minera Juanicipio has prepared budgets for ore to be mined and processed and the related operating and sustaining capital expenditures for Juanicipio, but no assurance can be given that such budgeted material processed and costs will be achieved. Failure to achieve cost estimates or material increases in costs could have an adverse impact in future cash flows, profitability, results of operations and financial condition. It is common in new mining operations to experience such unexpected costs, problems and delays during start-up and operation. In addition, delays in mineral production often occur. Accordingly, the Company cannot provide assurance that its activities will result in profitable mining operations at the Juanicipio Mine.

The Company’s capital and operating costs, production schedules and economic returns are based on certain assumptions which may prove to be inaccurate.

The Company’s expected operating and capital costs, production estimates, anticipated economic returns and other projections, estimates and forecasts for its mineral properties that are included in this AIF and the documents incorporated by reference herein are based on assumed or estimated future metals prices, cut-off grades, operating costs, capital costs, rates of inflation, metallurgical recoveries, that the actual ore mined is amenable to mining or treatment, environmental considerations, labour volumes, permitting and other factors, any of which may prove to be inaccurate. The 2024 Technical Report includes estimates of future production, development plans, operating costs, capital costs and other economic and technical estimates for Juanicipio. These estimates are based on a variety of factors and assumptions and there is no assurance that such production plans, costs or other estimates will be achieved. Actual production, costs and financial returns may vary significantly from the estimates depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within the Company’s control.

The Company’s operating and capital costs are affected by the cost of commodities and goods, such as explosives, fuel, electrical power and supplies.  Significant declines in market prices for gold, silver and other metals could have an adverse effect on the Company’s economic projections. Management of the Company assumes that the materials and supplies required for operations, development and commercial production will be available for purchase and that the Company will have access to the required amount of sufficiently skilled labour. As the Company relies on certain third-party suppliers and contractors, these factors can be outside its control and an increase in the costs (due to inflation, impacts of the Russia and Ukraine conflict, the Israel-Hamas conflict or otherwise) of, or a lack of availability (due to supply chain disruption or otherwise) of, commodities, goods and labour may have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition. The Company may experience difficulty in obtaining the necessary permits for its exploration, development or operational activities, if such permits are obtained at all, and may face penalties as a result of violations of permits or other environmental laws, which may cause delays and increases to projected budgets. Any of these discrepancies from the Company’s expected operating and capital costs, production schedules and economic returns could cause a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Company has in the past, and may in the future, provide estimates and projections of its future production, costs and financial results. In addition, Fresnillo, as operator of Juanicipio, has in the past, and may in the future, provide estimates and projections of future production, costs and financial results expected from Juanicipio.

Juanicipio capital requirements contemplated in the 2024 Technical Report are subject to volatility and uncertainty.

The continued development and operation of Juanicipio will use significant amounts of commodities, consumables and other materials. Prices for steel, concrete, fuel and other materials, commodities and consumables required for mine development can be volatile and price changes can be substantial, occur over short periods of time and be affected by factors beyond control of the project operator. Higher costs for construction materials like steel and concrete, the impact of the Mexican peso exchange rate on various development inputs, or tighter supplies can affect the costs and timing of the project development.

The continued development of Juanicipio will also utilize significant amounts of large and small equipment that may be critical to the development and operation of the project. Repeated and/or unexpected equipment failures and/or unavailability of equipment could cause interruptions or delays in the development.

Further, there is no certainty that the estimates described in the 2024 Technical Report will be realized. Any changes in the mine plan, mine design and/or scope of operations from those envisioned in the 2024 Technical Report may have a significant adverse impact on capital costs than is currently expected.

Mineral projects, such as Juanicipio, are uncertain and it is possible that actual capital and operating costs and economic returns will differ significantly from those estimated for project production.

The operation of the mine at Juanicipio requires significant expenditures to achieve planned production targets. The economic feasibility of mineral projects is based on many factors, such as: estimation of Mineral Reserves, anticipated metallurgical recoveries, environmental considerations and permitting, future silver prices, and anticipated capital and operating costs of such projects.

Estimates of Mineral Resources, Mineral Reserves and anticipated cash operating costs are, to a large extent, based upon the interpretation of geologic data obtained from drill holes and other sampling techniques, and other factors. As a result, it is possible that actual capital, operating costs, production costs and economic returns will significantly differ from those currently estimated for Juanicipio.

Any of the following events, among others, could affect the profitability of Juanicipio: unanticipated changes in grades and tonnes of development and mineralized stope material to be mined and processed; unanticipated adverse geologic conditions; unanticipated adverse geotechnical conditions; unanticipated metallurgical recovery problems; incorrect data on which engineering assumptions are made; availability of labour; costs of processing and refining facilities; delays resulting from future pandemics similar to COVID-19; availability of economic sources of power; adequacy of water supply; adequate access to the site; unanticipated transportation costs; government regulations (including regulations with respect to the environment, prices, royalties, duties, taxes, permitting, restrictions on production, quotas on exportation of minerals); fluctuations in silver prices; and accidents, labour actions and force majeure events.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Juanicipio Mine plan and design and the financial results may not be consistent with the 2024 Technical Report.

The 2024 Technical Report is based on both Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates and reflects a processing capacity of 4,000 tpd. However, Fresnillo may adopt alternate mine plans and other changes, and the scope of operations, if any, may differ materially from those presented in the 2024 Technical Report.

Further, there is no assurance that future required permits will be issued on a timely basis or at all. (See “There is no guarantee that licenses and permits required by the Company or the Juanicipio Entities to conduct business will be obtained, which may result in an impairment or loss in the Company’s mineral properties” above).

The 2024 Technical Report includes estimated Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves and there is no certainty that the estimates described in the 2024 Technical Report will be realized. There is no guarantee that development and operation will be carried out in accordance with the 2024 Technical Report, and if carried out, that operating or financial results will be consistent with the 2024 Technical Report.

The continued operation of Juanicipio may be adversely impacted by a lack of access to a skilled workforce.

The continued development and operation of Juanicipio will depend on availability of a skilled workforce, including, but not limited to, mining and mineral, metallurgical and geological engineers, geologists, environmental and safety specialists, and mining operators to explore and develop the project. Inadequate access to an available skilled workforce (including as a result of a disease outbreak or worker restrictions similar to during the COVID-19 pandemic), could compromise many aspects of the operation’s feasibility, viability and profitability, including, but not limited to, the production schedules, capital and operating costs.

The Company’s operations are subject to labour risks.

Juanicipio is and will be dependent on its workforce, and that of its specialized contractors, to extract and process minerals, and is therefore sensitive to its ability to source skilled labour in country, to a labour disruption of the project’s operations or to changes to laws. Fresnillo, as operator of Juanicipio, endeavours to maintain good relations with its workforce and specialized contractors in order to minimize the possibility of strikes, lockouts and other stoppages at its work sites. Relations between the Juanicipio Entities and its employees and contractors may be impacted by changes in labour relations that may be introduced by, among other things, employee groups, unions and the relevant governmental authorities in Mexico. As the Juanicipio Entities’ operations depend upon the efforts of its employees and contractors, the operations would be adversely affected if it failed to maintain satisfactory labour relations. In addition, relations between the Company and its employees and contractors may be affected by changes in labour and employment laws. Changes in such legislation or in the relationship between Minera Juanicipio and its employees and contractors may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects.

The continued operation of Juanicipio may be adversely impacted by lack of access and availability of infrastructure, power and water, and other matters.

The continued operation of Juanicipio will require access to and an ability to maintain adequate and reliable infrastructure, including roads, power sources and water systems. If the required infrastructure is not readily available, it may have to be built, and there is no assurance that it can be built in a timely manner or at all. There is no assurance that the Juanicipio Entities can access and maintain the infrastructure needed, or, where necessary, obtain rights of way, government authorizations and permits to construct, or upgrade the same at a reasonable cost, in a timely manner, or at all. Access to infrastructure may also be interrupted by natural causes, such as drought, floods, earthquakes and other weather phenomena, or man-made causes, such as blockades, sabotage, conflicts, government issues, political events, protests, rationing or competing uses, as well as global pandemics.

Inadequate, inconsistent or costly infrastructure could compromise many aspects of the project’s feasibility, viability and profitability, including, but not limited to the capital and operating costs.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Amendments to the Federal labour law on labour subcontracting (or “outsourcing”) may impact the Company’s operations.

Labour reform legislation on subcontracting and outsourcing in Mexico was published on April 23, 2021 (the “Reform”). The Reform amends several Mexican laws, including the Federal labour law, and seeks to, amongst other things, regulate outsourcing as follows: (i) to prohibit the use of subcontracting as it has historically been used in Mexico; and (ii) to allow an exception for specialized services under regulated circumstances. This Reform legislation came into effect on September 1, 2021.

The Reform changes are not expected to have a significant impact on the viability of Juanicipio. However, with various restrictions on hiring contractors, Fresnillo, as operator, internalized a portion of its workforce and now performs much of the development work directly rather than outsourcing it to contractors, and hence invest in equipment not previously planned to be utilized in underground operations.

Other general tax amendments are referred to under the risk factor titled “Mexican Foreign Investment and Income Tax Laws apply to the Company” below.

Juanicipio development decisions and production results may differ from those envisaged in the 2024 Technical Report.

The actual scope, operating results and production results of Juanicipio may differ from the scope, operation results and production results envisaged in the 2024 Technical Report. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not demonstrate economic viability and there is no certainty that Mineral Resources will ever become Mineral Reserves. There can be no certainty that the results in the 2024 Technical Report will be realized. Fresnillo is the project operator and the actual continued exploration, operation and production may be materially different than as contemplated in the 2024 Technical Report. As a result, there are additional risks as to the extent of capital and operating costs, mineral recovery and financial viability of the project.

The Company may encounter certain transportation and refining risks that could have a negative impact on its operations.

Mined materials and mineral concentrates containing combinations of metals that are produced at the Juanicipio Mine are transported to refiners and smelters. This type of process involves certain environmental and financial risks. The Company could be subject to potential significant increases in transportation charges and treatment and refining charges. Transportation of such materials and mineral concentrates is also subject to numerous risks including, but not limited to, delays in delivery of shipments, roadblocks, theft and other criminal activities, civil unrest, weather conditions and environmental liabilities in the event of an accident or spill. The Company could be subject to limited smelter availability and capacity and could also face the risk of a potential interruption of business from a third-party beyond the Company’s control, which in both cases could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operations, financial performance and financial condition. There is no assurance that smelting, refining or transportation contracts for the Juanicipio Mine’s production will be entered into and/or renewed on acceptable terms or that the counterparties to such contracts will meet their respective obligations thereunder. If the Company is unable to effectively process and refine its materials and mineral concentrates on acceptable terms or if the counterparties to any smelting, refining and transportation contracts fail to meet their respective obligations thereunder, the Company’s business, operations, financial performance and financial condition could be materially adversely impacted.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Risks Relating to the Company’s Property Titles

The Company’s mineral properties are subject to title risk and any challenge to the title to any of such properties may have a negative impact on the Company.

The Company’s mineral property rights, including its indirect interest in Juanicipio, may be subject to prior unregistered agreements, transfers and claims, and title may be affected by, among other things, undetected defects. Title to, and the area of, the mineral interests held by the Company may be disputed. Other parties, including, without limitation, Indigenous communities, may dispute title or access to the properties in which the Company has an interest. The Company’s property interests may also be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or land claims, and title may be affected by such undetected defects. Any challenge to the title or access to any of the properties in which the Company has an interest may have a negative impact on the Company as the Company will incur delay and expenses in defending such challenge and, if the challenge is successful, the Company may lose any interest it may have in the subject property.

Certain of the Company’s mineral properties may now or in the future be the subject of Indigenous rights claims.

Certain of the Company’s mineral properties, and in particular the Larder Project, may now or in the future be the subject of Indigenous rights claims, including treaty rights and Métis rights claims. The legal nature of Indigenous claims is a matter of considerable and evolving complexity. In a number of court decisions, the Supreme Court of Canada has affirmed the obligation on the Crown to consult with Indigenous peoples prior to authorizing the development of resources in Indigenous territory, such as mineral development. Treaties between the Crown and Indigenous people enshrine certain rights, and impose certain obligations on the Crown with respect to the treaty area. Métis rights and aboriginal title may also be claimed, and may require consultation and accommodation which can affect the development of Mineral Resources.

The impact of any such claim on the Company’s interest in its mineral properties cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty and no assurance can be given that the exercise or recognition of Indigenous rights in the areas in which the Company’s mineral properties are located, including by way of negotiated settlements or judicial pronouncements, would not have an adverse effect on the Company’s activities. In addition, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain practical working relationships with Indigenous groups which would allow it to ultimately develop the Company’s mineral properties.

Title opinions provide no guarantee of title and any challenge to the title to any properties may have a negative impact on the Company.

There is no guarantee that title to any concessions in which the Company has or will acquire a material interest will not be challenged or impugned. In Mexico, a title opinion does not provide absolute comfort that the holder has unconditional or absolute title. Any challenge to the title or access to any of the properties in which the Company has an interest, including its indirect interest in Juanicipio, may have a negative impact on the Company as the Company will incur expenses in defending such challenge and, if the challenge is successful, the Company may lose any interest it may have in the subject property.

Titles to the properties in which the Company has an interest that are not registered in the name of the Company may result in potential title disputes having a negative impact on the Company.

All of the agreements under which the Company may earn interests in properties, including any indirect interest acquired through Minera Juanicipio, have either been registered or been submitted for registration with the Mexican Public Registry of Mining or the applicable Canadian or U.S. authority, but title relating to the properties in which the Company may earn its interests may be held in the names of parties other than the Company. Any of such properties may become the subject of an agreement which conflicts with the agreement pursuant to which the Company may earn its interest, in which case the Company may incur expenses in resolving any dispute relating to its interest in such property and such a dispute could result in the delay, indefinite postponement of further exploration, development, construction and operation of properties or the possible loss of such properties.

Risks Related to Minority Interest Investment in Juanicipio

The Company is a minority shareholder and non-operator of the Juanicipio Entities and therefore is dependent on, and subject to, the decisions of the majority shareholder and operator of the Juanicipio Entities.

The terms of the Shareholders’ Agreement and corporate by-laws governing the operation of the Juanicipio Entities provide effective control to Fresnillo over many of the activities and operating decisions of the Juanicipio Entities, including decisions with respect to cash flows of such entities, since it holds a majority (56%) of the shares of the Juanicipio Entities. While a limited number of decisions of the shareholders or the directors of the Juanicipio Entities require a special majority of 60%, and in one instance 75%, giving the Company an effective veto over any such decisions, the Company is a minority shareholder and non-operator of Juanicipio and is dependent on Fresnillo to manage and operate the affairs of the Juanicipio Entities and to do so in compliance with the Shareholders’ Agreement (which, among other things, requires Fresnillo to manage and operate the Juanicipio Entities in accordance with best industry practices), the by-laws of each of the Juanicipio Entities and applicable Mexican law. If Fresnillo manages the affairs of the Juanicipio Entities in a manner that results in violation(s) of the Shareholders’ Agreement, by-laws or applicable laws, such violation(s) may have an adverse impact on the Company. Any disputes under the Shareholders’ Agreement are subject to arbitration in Mexico under applicable Mexican laws.

Fresnillo, as operator of Juanicipio, has the ability to undertake certain actions, legal or otherwise, which may result in the shareholders of the Juanicipio Entities having to fund cash calls. The Shareholders’ Agreement calls for adjustments to the interests of the shareholders in the Juanicipio Entities where either shareholder fails to fund cash calls within certain specified periods. If the Company fails to fund cash calls, it risks having its interest reduced, may lose its effective veto power over certain decisions and ultimately could be diluted out of the Juanicipio Entities altogether. Fresnillo is a much larger entity with far greater access to financial resources than the Company.

As operator, Fresnillo has control of the timing of cash calls, cash distributions and the timing thereof, relationships with contractors and employment matters together with other operational matters. The Company’s lack of control over such matters could have an adverse impact on the Company.

The Company holds its Juanicipio interest through a minority shareholding in the Juanicipio Entities and therefore may be adversely impacted by disputes amongst the shareholders.

The Company’s 44% interest in the Juanicipio Entities is subject to the risks normally associated with the conduct of incorporated businesses with multiple shareholders. The existence or occurrence of one or more of the following circumstances and events, for example, could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations and financial condition or the viability of its interests held as a shareholder: disagreement between shareholders on how to conduct business efficiently; inability of the shareholders to meet their obligations to the business operations or third parties; or litigation arising between shareholders.

Minera Juanicipio and Equipos Chaparral are organized through corporations that are formed under and governed by the laws of Mexico. The laws in Mexico do not provide all of the same protections that are available to shareholders of corporations that are formed under the laws of Canada or the United States. Accordingly, any dispute between the Company and Fresnillo as the shareholders of Minera Juanicipio and Equipos Chaparral could have a materially adverse effect on the Company.

In 2010, MAG initiated arbitration proceedings with the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. In May 2011, the Company announced that it had received a favourable ruling, dated April 28, 2011, of a three-member arbitral panel of the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce with respect to the arbitration proceedings against Fresnillo. In its ruling, the arbitral tribunal awarded MAG $1.86 million in damages. Although this dispute between the Company and Fresnillo was ultimately determined in favour of the Company, there can be no guarantee that future disputes between the parties will not arise and lead to further litigation proceedings, the outcome of which is uncertain.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Company has significant shareholders that may be able to exert influence over the direction of the Company’s business.

Based upon the Company’s review of the insider reports filed with System for Electronic Disclosure by Insiders (SEDI) with respect to Fresnillo, Blackrock Investment Management (“Blackrock”) and Van Eck Associates Corp. (“Van Eck”), and their respective affiliates, as at the date of this AIF, the Company believes that each holds approximately 9.02%, 10.22% and 9.01%, respectively, of the Common Shares. Accordingly, Fresnillo, Blackrock and Van Eck, either in unison and/or individually, may have some influence in determining the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to the shareholders of the Company for approval, including business combinations and any proposed sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. Unless full participation of a number of shareholders takes place in such shareholder meetings, Fresnillo, Blackrock and/or Van Eck may be able to approve on its own, or effectively prevent the approval, of any such significant corporate transactions.

Further, the significant ownership of Common Shares by Fresnillo, Blackrock and Van Eck may affect the market price and liquidity of the Common Shares. The effect of these rights and their influence may impact the price that investors are willing to pay for Common Shares. If any of these parties sells a substantial number of Common Shares in the public market, the market price of the shares could decrease.

The presence of a dominant shareholder like Fresnillo, that is the operator of Juanicipio, and has substantial property holdings surrounding Juanicipio, may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, as Fresnillo’s interests may differ from, or be adverse to, the interests of the Company’s other shareholders. Without the consent and cooperation of Fresnillo, the Juanicipio Entities may be prevented from entering into transactions that would be beneficial to the Company and its other shareholders.

Risks Relating to the Regulatory Environment

Amendments to the Federal Mining Law may affect the Company’s operations.

On March 28, 2023, a legislative initiative aimed at amending multiple legal codes, including the Federal Mining Law, was presented to the Mexican Congress by the President of Mexico. The amendments pertain to, among other matters, granting of future mining permits and transfer of permits, shortening concession life, granting of future water permits, granting of exploration permits on behalf of exploration companies to the Mexican Geological Services, mine reclamation, profit-sharing requirements to distribute at least 7% of profits to local indigenous communities and management of mine waste. The amendments were brought into law on May 9, 2023. The Company is conducting a thorough review and evaluation of potential implications specifically concerning its 44% interest in Juanicipio, including the treatment of concessions issued under previous legislation. Numerous legal challenges to the legality and constitutionality of several aspects of these changes have been filed with various Mexican courts and are pending adjudication. Minera Juanicipio is committed to monitoring these judicial proceedings with the utmost attention. For further information, see “Carrying on Business in Mexico – Mining Regulations”.

The Company may become subject to tariffs or other restrictive trade measures.

On February 1, 2025, President Donald Trump announced that the United States of America (the “US”) was imposing a 25% tariff on all goods originating in Canada and Mexico and imported into the United States, and a 10% tariff on energy resources imported from Canada. He also announced the imposition of tariffs on China and has made open comments expressing the possibility of imposing additional tariffs on other countries. The Canadian federal government then promptly announced the imposition of a 25% tariff on a list of US exports to Canada. Mexico and China announced retaliatory tariffs as well. On February 3, 2025, the President announced a pause on the imposition of the US tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods for a 30-day period and the Canadian government then withdrew its tariffs. On March 6, 2025, the President announced another pause on the imposition of the US tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods for a period elapsing April 2, 2025.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The timing, possibility and rates of the potential US tariffs, and the countries on which they are levied are difficult to predict at this time. However, US tariffs are likely to be met with retaliatory tariffs and a multi-country trade war against the US could develop. The Company does not export products to the US and would not be directly impacted by the imposition of the new tariffs on goods imported into the US. However, the economic impact of tariffs or a broader trade war on the Canadian economy, the US economy and the global economy could negatively impact capital markets and the Company’s ability to raise funds to undertake its exploration and work programs.

A Canada-US trade war has the potential to adversely impact global supply chain and make supplies required by the Company for its exploration programs or future construction programs harder to obtain or unavailable. Canadian tariffs or scarcity in the global supply chain would likely increase the cost of supplies required by the Company, which could impair the Company’s ability to undertake all of the work it plans to perform. The indirect effects of tariffs imposed by the US or by both countries are difficult to assess, but the potential for tariffs represents a risk to the Company’s ability to fulfill some of its key objectives.

The environment in which the Company operates may not adhere to international standards with respect to security and human rights.

The Company’s operations, development projects and exploration activities extend to jurisdictions which may be considered to have an increased degree of security risk and criminal activity. The impacts of these risks could impede the exploration, development and operation of the Company’s mines in these countries. See also the risk factor “The properties in which the Company has an interest are located primarily in Mexico”.

In addition, civil disturbances and criminal activities, such as trespass, illegal mining, sabotage, theft and vandalism, may cause disruptions at certain of the Company’s operations. The Company has taken certain measures to protect its employees, property and production facilities from these risks. The measures that have been implemented by the Company cannot guarantee that such incidents will not continue to occur and such incidents may halt or delay production, increase operating costs, result in harm to employees or trespassers, decrease operational efficiency, increase community tensions or result in criminal and/or civil liability for the Company or its employees and/or financial damages or penalties.

The manner in which the Company’s personnel, which includes security, respond to civil disturbances and criminal activities can give rise to additional risks where those responses are not conducted in a manner that is consistent with international standards relating to the use of force and respect for human rights. The Company has implemented a number of measures and safeguards which are designed to assist its personnel in understanding and upholding these standards. The implementation of these measures will not guarantee that the Company’s personnel will uphold these standards in every instance. The failure to conduct security operations in accordance with these standards can result in harm to employees or community members, increased community tensions, reputational harm to the Company or result in litigation, criminal and/or civil liability for the Company or its employees and/or financial damages or penalties.

It is not possible to determine with certainty the future costs that the Company may incur in dealing with the issues described above at its operations. However, if the number of incidents increases, costs associated with security, in the case of civil disturbances and illegal mining, may also increase, affecting profitability.

The Company is subject to anti-corruption laws.

The Company is subject to anti-corruption laws under the Canadian Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the Mexican General Law of the National System of Anticorruption, which generally prohibit companies from bribing or making other prohibited payments to foreign public officials in order to obtain or retain an advantage in the course of business. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices may occur in Mexico or any other jurisdiction in which the Company may conduct business. The Company cannot ensure that its employees or the employees of the Juanicipio Entities or other agents will not engage in such prohibited practices, for which the Company or the Juanicipio Entities could face severe penalties, reputational damage and other consequences that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial condition. The Company has adopted the Code of Conduct and the Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy to promote legal and ethical business conduct by its directors, officers and employees. The Company cannot, however, provide assurance that the Code of Conduct or the Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy, or other policies or procedures that it may adopt, will be sufficient to protect against corrupt activity. In particular, the Company may not be able to prevent or detect corrupt activity by employees or third parties, such as sub-contractors of the Juanicipio operator, Fresnillo, for which the Company might be held responsible.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Company may be required by human rights laws to take actions that delay the advancement of its projects.

There are various international and national laws, codes, resolutions, conventions, guidelines and other materials that relate to human rights (including rights with respect to health and safety and the environment surrounding the Company’s operations). Many of these materials impose obligations on government and companies to respect human rights. Some mandate that government consult with communities surrounding the Company’s projects regarding government actions that may affect local stakeholders, including actions to approve or grant mining rights or permits. The obligations of government and private parties under the various international and national materials pertaining to human rights continue to evolve and be defined. One or more groups of people may oppose the Company’s current and future operations or further development, new development or production at its projects or operations. Such opposition may be directed through legal or administrative proceedings or expressed in manifestations, such as protests, roadblocks or other forms of public expression against the Company’s activities and may have a negative impact on its reputation. Opposition by such groups to the Company’s or the Juanicipio Entities’ operations may require modification of, or preclude the operation or development of, its projects or may require the Company or the Juanicipio Entities to enter into agreements with such groups or local governments with respect to its projects, in some cases causing considerable delays to the advancement of its projects.

The Company’s activities within Mexico are subject to extensive laws and regulations governed by Mexican regulators.

The Company’s activities, including but not limited to the operations at Juanicipio, are subject to extensive laws and regulations governing worker health and safety, employment standards, waste disposal, protection of historic and archaeological sites, mine development, protection of endangered and protected species, Indigenous communities’ rights and other matters. Specifically, the Company’s Mexican mining concessions are subject to regulation by the Mexican Department of Economy - Dirección General of Mines, the environmental protection agency of Mexico, Comisión Nacional del Agua, which regulates water rights, and the applicable Mexican mining laws. Mexican regulators have broad authority to shut down and/or levy fines against facilities that do not comply with regulations or standards.

Mexican foreign investment and income tax laws apply to the Company.

Under the applicable foreign investment laws of Mexico, there is presently no limitation on foreign capital participation in mining operations; however, the applicable laws may change in a way which may adversely impact the Company and its ability to repatriate profits. Under applicable Mexican income tax laws, dividends paid out of “previously taxed net earnings” are not subject to Mexican corporate taxes. Otherwise, dividends are subject to the Mexican income tax at the corporate level, which presently is 30% over a gross up basis (amount of the dividend times 1.4286), payable by the Mexican company as an advance of its annual income tax. There is a withholding tax on dividends paid by a Mexican company to Mexican individuals and non-Mexican shareholders of 10% applicable to earnings generated as of 2014; “previously tax net earnings” generated until 2013 are not subject to this withholding tax. This withholding tax rate may be reduced under the applicable tax treaties to avoid double taxation entered by Mexico.

Corporations with their tax residence in Mexico are taxed on their worldwide income, which include all profits from operations, income from investments not relating to the regular business of the corporation and capital gains. The current corporate income tax rate in Mexico is 30%. As of January 1, 2025, a mining royalty fee is in effect in Mexico of 8.5% on income before tax, depreciation, and interest, as well as an extraordinary governmental fee on precious metals, including gold and silver, of 1% of gross revenue.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

On December 31, 2016, the State Government of Zacatecas, Mexico published a new tax law for the state (Ley de Hacienda del Estado de Zacatecas), which came into effect on January 1, 2017 and imposes environmental taxes on activities, such as (i) extraction of materials other than those regulated by the mining laws of Mexico; (ii) emissions to the atmosphere; (iii) discharges of industrial waste into the soil and water, and (iv) deposit of industrial waste. After various legal challenges, two of the taxes were declared constitutional and two taxes unconstitutional for Minera Juanicipio. The annual cost to Minera Juanicipio of complying with the two taxes deemed constitutional is not considered significant at this time and management’s assessment is that it will not have an impact on the viability of Juanicipio. However, this is an example of a type of tax that can occur in the future.

The Mexican VAT is a refundable tax levied on the value added to goods and services, and is imposed on corporations that carry out activities within Mexican territory, including (i) the sale or other disposition of property; (ii) the rendering of independent services; (iii) the granting of temporary use of property; or (iv) the importation of goods and services. The standard value added tax rate is currently 16% but is subject to periodic review and change by the relevant Mexican tax authorities. The Company and the Juanicipio Entities have traditionally held a VAT receivable balance due to the expenditures they incur whereby VAT is paid to a vendor or service provider. Collections of these receivables from the Government of Mexico often take months and sometimes years to recover. The Company to date has been able to recover the majority of its VAT paid, and in the case of the Juanicipio Entities, any VAT not recovered on a timely basis will be applied against VAT payable on sales from production or leasing income. The recoveries of future VAT paid, and possible extended delays in recoveries common in Mexico, could adversely affect exploration, development and operating costs.

Legislative changes in the VAT effective January 1, 2017 may prevent mining companies during the exploration stage from requesting VAT refunds, unless they are certain they will eventually operate and generate revenue. Future legislative changes in Mexico are not predictable and may have a negative effect on the Company and its operations.

The Company may fail to maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Management has documented and tested its internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires an annual assessment by management of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company may fail to maintain the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, and the Company may not be able to conclude, on an ongoing basis, that it has effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

The Company’s failure to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act on an ongoing, timely basis could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of its financial statements, which in turn could harm the Company’s business and negatively impact the trading price or the market value of its securities. In addition, any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm the Company’s operating results or cause it to fail to meet its reporting obligations. If the Company expands, the challenges involved in implementing appropriate internal control over financial reporting will increase and will require that the Company continues to monitor its internal control over financial reporting. Although the Company intends to expend time and incur costs, as necessary, to ensure ongoing compliance, it cannot be certain that it will be successful in complying with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

The Company follows Canadian disclosure practices concerning its Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves which allow for different disclosure than is required for domestic U.S. reporting companies.

The Company’s Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates are not directly comparable to those made by domestic U.S. reporting companies subject to the SEC’s reporting and disclosure requirements, as the Company reports Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves in accordance with Canadian practices. These practices are different from the practices used to report Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates in reports and other materials filed by domestic U.S. reporting companies with the SEC.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Unless otherwise indicated, technical disclosure regarding MAG’s properties included or incorporated by reference herein, including all Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates contained in such technical disclosure, has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of NI 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects.

Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the disclosure requirements of the SEC Modernization Rules. The Company is not required to provide disclosure on its mineral properties under the SEC Modernization Rules and provides disclosure under NI 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards. Accordingly, information contained in this AIF, or the documents incorporated by reference herein, may differ significantly from the information that would be disclosed had the Company prepared the Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates under the standards adopted under the SEC Modernization Rules. See “Cautionary Note to United States Investors”.

Any enforcement proceedings under Canada’s Extractive Sector Transparency Measures Act against the Company could adversely affect the Company.

The Extractive Sector Transparency Measures Act (Canada) (“ESTMA”) requires public disclosure of certain payments to governments by companies engaged in the commercial development of minerals and are publicly listed in Canada. Mandatory annual reporting is required for extractive companies with respect to payments made to foreign and domestic governments, including aboriginal groups. ESTMA requires reporting on the payments of any taxes, royalties, fees, production entitlements, bonuses, dividends, infrastructure reporting or structuring payments to avoid reporting. If the Company becomes subject to an enforcement action or is in violation of ESTMA, this may result in significant penalties or sanctions which may also have a material adverse effect on the Company’s reputation.

Risks Relating to the Company’s Securities

Funding and property commitments may result in dilution to the Company’s shareholders.

The Company may sell equity securities in public offerings (including through the sale of securities convertible into equity securities) and may issue additional equity securities to finance operations, exploration, development, project construction, acquisitions or other projects. The Company cannot predict the size of future issuances of equity securities or the size and terms of future issuances of debt instruments or other securities convertible into equity securities or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of the Company’s securities will have on the market price of the Common Shares. Any transaction involving the issuance of previously authorized but unissued Common Shares, or securities convertible into Common Shares, would result in dilution, possibly substantial, to security holders. Exercises of presently outstanding stock options (“Options”) may also result in dilution to security holders.

The Board has the authority to authorize certain offers and sales of additional securities without the vote of, or prior notice to, shareholders. Based on the need for additional capital to fund expected expenditures and growth, the Company may issue additional securities to provide such capital. Such additional issuances may involve the issuance of a significant number of Common Shares at prices less than the current market price for the Common Shares.

Sales of substantial amounts of the Company’s securities, or the availability of such securities for sale, could adversely affect the prevailing market prices for the Company’s securities and dilute investors’ earnings per share. A decline in the market prices of Company’s securities could impair the Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the sale of securities should the Company desire to do so.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The price of the Company’s Common Shares is volatile.

Publicly quoted securities are subject to a relatively high degree of price volatility. It should be expected that continued fluctuations in price will occur, and no assurances can be made as to whether the price per share will increase or decrease in the future. In recent years, the securities markets in the United States and Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of many companies, particularly those considered exploration or development stage companies, such as the Company, have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. The factors influencing such volatility include pandemics, macroeconomic developments in North America and globally, and market perceptions of the attractiveness of particular industries.

The price of the Common Shares is also likely to be significantly affected by short-term changes in precious metal prices or other mineral prices, currency exchange fluctuations and the Company’s financial condition or results of operations as reflected in its earnings reports. Other factors unrelated to the performance of the Company that may have an effect on the price of the Common Shares include the following: the extent of analyst coverage available to investors concerning the business of the Company may be limited if investment banks with research capabilities do not follow the Company’s securities; lessening in trading volume and general market interest in the Company’s securities may affect an investor’s ability to trade significant numbers of securities of the Company; the size of the Company’s public float may limit the ability of some institutions to invest in the Company’s securities; and a substantial decline in the price of the securities of the Company that persists for a significant period of time could cause the Company’s securities to be delisted from an exchange, further reducing market liquidity.

Securities class-action litigation often has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. The Company may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and damages and divert management’s attention and resources.

There is no assurance of a sufficient liquid trading market for the Company’s Common Shares in the future.

Shareholders of the Company may be unable to sell significant quantities of Common Shares into the public trading markets without a significant reduction in the price of their Common Shares, or at all. There can be no assurance that there will be sufficient liquidity of the Company’s Common Shares on the trading market, and that the Company will continue to meet the listing requirements of the TSX or the NYSE American or achieve listing on any other public listing exchange.

Most of the Company’s mineral assets are located outside of Canada.

Most of the Company’s mineral assets are located outside of Canada. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within Canada any judgments obtained against the Company or its officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of applicable securities laws. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Mexico and other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of Canadian courts obtained against the Company or its directors and officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of Canada or be competent to hear original actions brought in Mexico or other jurisdictions against the Company or its directors and officers predicated upon the securities laws of Canada. Further, any payments as a result of judgments obtained in Mexico should be in pesos and service of process in Mexico must be effectuated personally and not by mail.

The Company, its directors, officers and management (with the exception of the Vice President, Exploration and the former Chief Exploration Officer) and all of its material assets are located outside of the United States, which makes it difficult for U.S. litigants to effect service of process, or enforce, any judgments obtained against the Company or its officers or directors.

Substantially all of the Company’s assets are located outside of the United States and the Company does not currently maintain a permanent place of business within the United States. In addition, most of the directors and officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of such persons’ assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. litigants to effect service of process or enforce any judgments obtained against the Company or its officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Canada, Mexico and other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against the Company or its directors and officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in Canada, Mexico or other jurisdictions against the Company or its directors and officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. Further, any payments as a result of judgments obtained in Mexico could be in pesos and service of process in Mexico must be effectuated personally and not by mail.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Company has outstanding common share equivalents which, if exercised, could cause dilution to existing shareholders.

The Company has common share equivalents issued consisting of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding exercisable Options and warrants or issuable upon the conversion of restricted share units (“RSUs”), performance share units (“PSUs”) and deferred share units (“DSUs”) each convertible into one Common Share. Options are likely to be exercised when the market price of the Company’s Common Shares exceeds the exercise price of such Options. RSUs and PSUs may be converted at any time by the holder subject to vesting conditions, and the DSUs may only be converted by a departing director of the Company. The exercise of any of these instruments and the subsequent resale of such Common Shares in the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price and the Company’s ability to raise equity capital in the future at a time and price which it deems appropriate. The Company may also enter into commitments in the future which would require the issuance of additional Common Shares and the Company may grant additional share purchase warrants, Options, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs. Any share issuances from the Company’s treasury will result in immediate dilution to existing shareholders’ percentage interest in the Company.

Declaration, payment and amounts of dividends, if any, to holders of the Company’s shares will be uncertain.

The Board will have the discretion to determine whether any dividends on the Company’s common shares will be declared, when dividends, if any, are deemed, and the amount of such dividends. While the Board has declared a dividend for holders of record on April 4, 2025, any decisions with respect to the declaration of future dividends will remain at the discretion of the Board and will depend on a number of considerations, including the Company’s results of operations and capital requirements, future earnings, availability of funds, as well as industry practice, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.

The Company could in the future be classified as a ‘passive foreign investment company’ (“PFIC”), which could have adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences for U.S. holders of Common Shares.

U.S. investors should be aware that they could be subject to certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences in the event that the Company is classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The determination of whether the Company is a PFIC for a taxable year depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations, and the determination will depend on the composition of the Company’s income, expenses and assets from time to time and the nature of the activities performed by the Company’s officers and employees. The Company believes that MAG was a PFIC for the 2019 and prior financial years. With the start of the underground production at the Juanicipio Mine and the Company’s attributable revenue under the PFIC determination rules, the Company no longer believes it is a PFIC as of the 2020 financial year. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisers regarding the likelihood and consequences of the Company being treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including the advisability of making certain elections that may mitigate certain possible adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences but may result in an inclusion in gross income without receipt of such income.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Other Business Risks

Mineral exploration, development and extraction is a highly competitive industry.

The mineral exploration, development and production industry is intensely competitive in all of its phases and the Company must compete in all aspects of its operations with a substantial number of large established mining companies with greater liquidity, greater access to credit and other financial resources, newer or more efficient equipment, lower cost structures, more effective risk management policies and procedures and/or greater ability than the Company to withstand losses. The Company’s competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new laws or regulations or emerging technologies or devote greater resources to the expansion of their operations, than the Company can. In addition, current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties. Competition could adversely affect the Company’s ability to acquire suitable new producing properties or prospects for exploration in the future. Competition could also affect the Company’s ability to raise financing to fund the exploration, development and operation of its properties or to hire qualified personnel. The Company may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Environmental regulations are becoming more onerous to comply with, and the cost of compliance with environmental regulations and changes in such regulations may reduce the profitability of the Company’s operations and the Juanicipio Entities’ operations.

Environmental legislation on a global basis is evolving in a manner that will ensure stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessment of proposed development, the possibility of affected parties pursuing class action lawsuits and a higher level of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. The Company’s operations and the operations of the Juanicipio Entities at Juanicipio are subject to environmental regulations promulgated by government agencies from time to time. Environmental legislation provides for restrictions and prohibitions of spills, release or emission of various substances produced in association with certain mining industry operations, such as seepage from tailing storage facilities, which could result in environmental pollution. Failure to comply with such legislation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties. In addition, certain types of operations require submissions to and approval of environmental impact assessments. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which means stricter standards and enforcement, and more stringent fines and penalties for non-compliance. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees. The cost of compliance with environmental regulations and changes in such regulations may reduce the profitability of the Company’s operations and the operations of the Juanicipio Entities. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations may require significant capital outlays on behalf of the Company and the Juanicipio Entities and may cause material changes or delays in the Company’s and the Juanicipio Entities’ intended activities. The environmental impact assessments may impose the condition to the Company or the Juanicipio Entities of obtaining the authorization from the Indigenous communities where the mining activities are to be carried out.

The Company faces risks with respect to its tailings storage facility and related permitting.

The extraction process for silver and other metals will produce tailings, which is the sand-like material mixed with water that remain following the metal extraction process. Tailings are stored in engineered facilities (“tailings storage facilities” or “TSF”), which are designed, constructed, operated and closed in conformance with international design standards and best practices. A delay in obtaining permits relating to the TSF, a failure of the TSF walls or poor tailings management safety protocols, once operational, may adversely impact the Company’s business, operations and financial performance. 

Natural disasters can pose a threat to the stability of the tailings dam walls and pose a risk beyond the Company’s control. The failure of a tailings dam wall can result in suspension of operations, injuries, death in extreme cases, government inspections, increased cost and public relation concerns. Should a breach of these facilities occur due to extreme weather, seismic event, or other incident, the Company could suffer a material financial impact on the Company’s operations and financial condition. See “Natural Disasters”.

The initial concept for tailings deposition at Juanicipio was to construct a starter cell, with initial capacity for 14-16 months’ production, and to construct a second larger cell during the initial year of operation. The granting of construction permits for the second cell had been delayed, and as a contingency, Juanicipio installed a fully culvert-contained transport pipeline to the nearby Saucito TSF to facilitate tailings deposition while awaiting the permit and construction of the second Juanicipio tailings cell. The construction permit for the second cell was received in May of 2024, and tailings deposition is anticipated to commence in April of 2025.

The Company may experience difficulties managing and integrating acquisitions.

The Company continually seeks opportunities to acquire or invest in businesses that could expand, complement or otherwise relate to MAG’s current or future business. The Company may also consider, from time to time, opportunities to engage in joint ventures or other business collaborations with third parties to address particular market segments. These activities create risks, such as: (i) the need to integrate and manage the businesses acquired with MAG’s own business; (ii) additional demands on the Company’s resources, systems, procedures and controls; (iii) disruption of the Company’s ongoing business; and (iv) diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns. Moreover, these transactions could involve: (i) substantial investment of funds or financings by issuance of debt or equity securities; (ii) substantial investment with respect to operational integration; and (iii) the acquisition or disposition of product lines or businesses. Also, such activities could result in one time charges and expenses and have the potential to either dilute the interests of existing shareholders or result in the issuance of, or assumption of debt. Such acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or other business collaborations may involve significant commitments of financial and other resources of MAG. Any such activities may not be successful in generating revenue, income or other returns to MAG, and the resources committed to such activities will not be available to the Company for other purposes. Any inability to address risks associated with acquisitions or investments in businesses may negatively affect MAG’s operating results. Additionally, any impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets acquired in an acquisition or in an investment, or charges to earnings associated with any acquisition or investment activity, may materially reduce the Company’s earnings, which, in turn, may have an adverse material effect on the price of Common Shares.

The Company or the Juanicipio Entities may be subject to litigation, the disposition of which could negatively affect the Company’s profits to varying degrees.

All industries, including the mining industry, are subject to legal claims, with and without merit. Due to the nature of its business, each of the Company and the Juanicipio Entities may, in the future, be subject to claims (including class action claims and claims from government regulatory bodies) based on allegations of negligence, breach of statutory duty, public nuisance or private nuisance or otherwise in connection with its operations or investigations relating thereto. Defense and settlement costs can be substantial, even with respect to claims that have no merit. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the litigation process, the litigation process could take away from management time and effort and there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular legal proceeding will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations and financial position. Results of litigation are inherently uncertain and there can be no assurances as to the final outcome. The Company’s liability insurance may not fully cover such claims. See also “The Company holds its Juanicipio interest through a minority shareholding in the Juanicipio Entities and therefore may be adversely impacted by disputes amongst the shareholders.”

If either the Company or the Juanicipio Entities, through the operator Fresnillo, are unable to hire, train, deploy and manage qualified personnel in a timely manner, particularly in Mexico, their ability to manage and grow its business will be impaired.

Recruiting and retaining qualified personnel is critical to the Company’s and the Juanicipio Entities’ success. As Fresnillo is the operator of Juanicipio, the ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel with respect to that project lies outside the direct control of the Company. The number of persons skilled in acquisition, exploration, development and operation of mining properties is limited and competition for such persons is intense. As business activity grows, additional key financial, administrative and mining personnel, as well as additional operations staff may be required, particularly in Mexico. The Company or Minera Juanicipio may not be successful in attracting, training and retaining qualified personnel as competition for persons with these skill sets increases. If the Company or Minera Juanicipio is not successful in attracting, training and retaining qualified personnel, the efficiency of its operations could be impaired, which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s future cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial condition.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

It may be particularly difficult to find or hire qualified personnel in the mining industry who are situated in Mexico, to obtain all of the necessary services or expertise in Mexico, or to conduct operations on the Company’s projects (including Juanicipio) at reasonable rates. If qualified personnel cannot be obtained in Mexico, the Company or Minera Juanicipio may need to obtain those services outside of Mexico, which will require work permits and compliance with applicable laws, and could result in delays and higher costs to the Company.

In addition, pandemics similar to COVID-19, or the personal security risk in the Juanicipio area, may cause reduced availability to skilled workers for the Company.

Cybersecurity risks and AI may impact the Company’s business.

The Company’s information systems, and those of its counterparties, third-party service providers and vendors, are vulnerable to an increasing threat of cybersecurity risks. Unauthorized parties may attempt to gain access to these systems or the Company’s information through fraud, deceit or other means. Cybersecurity risks have increased in recent years as a result of the proliferation of new technologies and the increased sophistication of cyber-attacks and data security breaches, including in connection with the increasing use of AI technology.

The Company’s operations depend, in part, on how well the Company and its suppliers, as well as counterparties, protect networks, equipment, information technology (“IT”) systems and software against damage from a number of threats. The Company has entered into agreements with third parties for hardware, software, telecommunications and other services in connection with its operations. The Company’s operations also depend on the timely maintenance, upgrade and replacement of networks, equipment, IT systems and software, as well as pre-emptive expenses to mitigate the risks of failures. A cyber-attack or failure of information systems could, depending on the nature and degree of any such failure, adversely impact the Company’s reputation and results of operations. Cyber-attacks to the Company’s head office could result in damage or loss of data and operational capability. Cyber-attacks to Juanicipio can render systems down for a longer period of time or destruction of data which could impact operations. The Company regularly assesses its level of cyber readiness and resilience and has implemented ongoing actions to identify, manage, and mitigate cyber risk across its technology networks.

Although the Company has not incurred any material losses relating to cyber-attacks or other data/information security breaches to date, there can be no assurance that the Company will not incur such losses in the future. The Company’s risk and exposure to these matters cannot be fully mitigated because of, among other things, the evolving nature of these threats. Cybersecurity and the continued development and enhancement of controls, processes and practices designed to protect systems, computers, software, data and networks from attack, damage or unauthorized access remain a priority for the Company, but there is no assurance that actions taken by the Company will be sufficient to eliminate the risks.

Any future significant compromise or breach of the Company’s data/information security, whether external or internal, or misuse of data or information, could result in additional significant costs, fines, lawsuits and damage to the Company’s reputation. In addition, as the regulatory environment related to data/information security, data collection and use, and privacy evolves, with new and constantly changing requirements applicable to the Company’s business, compliance with those requirements could also result in additional costs. The Company may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance protective measures or to investigate and remediate any security vulnerabilities. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

The Company’s use of technology and AI systems.

The Company, its counterparties, third-party providers and vendors may from time to time use AI technology to make the Company’s operations and systems more efficient and productive. While the Company has set measures to oversee its use of AI technology, the Company has no way of ensuring that its third-party providers and vendors are engaging in risk mitigating measures when adopting and using AI technology.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

In addition, as many AI technology systems are constantly evolving and becoming more effective, the Company may be at an increased risk of a cybersecurity attack where AI technology is used to circumvent security controls, evade detection and remove forensic evidence. As a result, the Company may be unable to detect, investigate, remediate or recover from future attacks or incidents, or to avoid a material adverse impact on its business.

The Company’s operations are subject to risks associated with unexpected geological conditions and natural disasters.

The Company is subject to typical risks in the mining business. These include, but are not limited to, operational issues such as unexpected geological conditions and natural disasters, such as earthquakes, that cause unanticipated increases in the costs of extraction or leading to cave-in and rock bursts, particularly as mining moves into deeper levels. Major cave-ins, flooding, storms, wildfires or other natural disasters could also occur under extreme conditions. Such occurrences could result in damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damage, delays in mining, monetary losses and possible legal liability. As a result, the Company may incur significant liabilities and costs that could have a material adverse effect upon its business, results of operations and financial performance.

Infrastructure, including electricity supplies, that may be currently available and used by the Company may, as result of natural disaster, be destroyed or made unavailable or available in a reduced capacity. Were this to occur, operations at the Company’s properties may become more costly or have to be curtailed or even terminated, potentially having serious adverse consequences to the Company’s financial condition and viability that could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations or financial performance.

The Company has insurance in amounts that it considers to be adequate to protect itself against certain risks of mining and processing caused by natural disasters. However, the Company may become subject to liability for hazards which it cannot insure against or which it may elect not to insure against because of premium costs or other reasons. In particular, the Company is not insured for environmental liability or earthquake damage. See “Tailings/Permit Risks” above.

The Company may face equipment shortages, access restrictions and a lack of infrastructure.

The majority of the Company’s interests in mineral properties are located in remote and relatively uninhabited areas. Such mineral properties, including the Company’s interest in Juanicipio, will require adequate infrastructure, such as roads, bridges and sources of power and water, for future exploration and development activities. The lack of availability of these items on terms acceptable to the Company, and in the case of Juanicipio, on terms acceptable to the operator (Fresnillo), or the delay in availability of these items could prevent or delay exploitation or development of the Company’s mineral property interests. In addition, unusual weather phenomena, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure could adversely affect the Company’s operations and profitability. Natural resource exploration, development, processing and mining activities are dependent on the availability of mining, drilling and related equipment in the particular areas where such activities are conducted. A limited supply of such equipment or access restrictions may affect the availability of such equipment to the Company and the Juanicipio Entities and may delay exploration, development or extraction activities. Certain equipment may not be immediately available or may require long lead time orders. A delay in obtaining necessary equipment could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations and financial results.

The Company is dependent on its key personnel, none of whom are insured by the Company.

The Company is dependent upon the continued availability and commitment of its key management, employees and consultants, whose contributions to immediate and future operations of the Company are of central importance. The Company relies on its President & CEO, George Paspalas, and its other officers, who have entered into written employment agreements with the Company, for the day-to-day operation of the Company, its projects and the execution of the Company’s business plan. The Company has not obtained “key man” insurance for any of its management. The loss of any member of the senior management team could impair the Company’s ability to execute its business plan and could therefore have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The loss of George Paspalas in particular could have a negative impact on the Company until he is replaced.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Foreign currency fluctuations and inflationary pressures may have a negative impact on the Company’s financial position and results.

The Company’s property interests in Mexico make it subject to foreign currency fluctuations and inflationary pressures which may adversely affect the Company’s and the Juanicipio Entities’ financial position and results. Exploration and development programs conducted by the Company and the Juanicipio Entities in Mexico, are partially funded in Mexican pesos and any appreciation in Mexican currency against the U.S. dollar will increase the costs of carrying out these operations in Mexico.

The Company has determined that its functional currency is the U.S. dollar; however, it maintains a portion of cash balances and other net monetary assets in Canadian dollars and Mexican pesos in order to fund expenditures in such currencies. The Company is therefore exposed to currency risks and exchange losses may be realized on a devaluation of either the Canadian dollar or Mexican peso.

The fluctuations of the Mexican peso also expose the Company to a deferred tax expense in relation to temporary differences between the book and tax base of its Mexican non-monetary assets, and specifically the tax base of the Company’s investment in the Juanicipio Entities. The tax base of this investment is determined in a different currency (Mexican peso) than the book value which is based on the functional currency (U.S. dollar). Changes in the Mexican peso/U.S. dollar exchange rate can give rise to temporary differences that result in deferred tax liability and deferred tax expense in accordance with IAS 12 Income Taxes.

In Canada, administrative overheads are primarily denominated in Canadian dollars, and an appreciation in the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar will increase the Company’s overhead costs as reported in U.S. dollars.

Steps taken by management to address the consequences of foreign currency fluctuations may not eliminate or reduce any adverse effects, and the Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Accordingly, the Company may suffer losses due to adverse foreign currency fluctuations. The Company also bears the risk of incurring losses occasioned as a result of inflation in Mexico.

Conflicts of interest may arise among the Company’s directors as a result of their involvement with other natural resource companies.

Most of the Company’s directors do not devote their full time to the affairs of the Company. Some of the directors and some of the officers of the Company are also directors, officers or shareholders of other natural resource or public companies, and as a result they may find themselves in a position where their duty to another company conflicts with their duty to the Company. None of the Company’s constating documents or any of its other agreements, other than its corporate governance policies, contain any provisions mandating a procedure for addressing such conflicts of interest. There is no assurance that any such conflicts will be resolved in favour of the Company. If any such conflicts are not resolved in favour of the Company, the Company may be adversely affected.

The Company may be subject to reputational risk.

As a result of the increased usage and the speed and global reach of social media and other web-based tools used to generate, publish and discuss user-generated content and to connect with other users, companies today are at much greater risk of losing control over how they are perceived in the marketplace. Damage to the Company’s reputation can be the result of the actual or perceived occurrence of any number of events, and could include any negative publicity (for example, with respect to the Company’s handling of environmental matters or the Company’s dealings with community groups), whether true or not.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

The Company places a great emphasis on protecting its image and reputation, but the Company does not ultimately have direct control over how it is perceived by others. Reputation loss may lead to increased challenges in developing and maintaining community relations, decreased investor confidence and an impediment to the Company’s overall ability to advance its projects, thereby having a material adverse impact on financial performance, cash flows and growth prospects.

Mining operations generally involve a high degree of risk and potential liability and insurance coverage may not cover all potential risks associated with the Company’s operations.

Unusual or unexpected formations, power outages, labour disruptions, theft of assets, Indigenous communities complaints, industrial accidents, flooding, explosions, cave-ins, seismic activity, rock bursts, landslides, pollution, inclement weather, fire, mechanical equipment failure and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour are several of the hazards and risks involved in the conduct of exploration programs in the Company’s mineral properties, including Juanicipio, any of which could result in personal injury or death, damage to property, environmental damage and possible legal liability for any or all damage. There was a fatality at Juanicipio in 2014. Safety measures have been implemented by the Company and Fresnillo; however, there are no assurances that these measures will be successful in preventing or mitigating future accidents. The Company maintains insurance against risks in the operation of its business in amounts that it believes to be reasonable. Such insurance, however, contains exclusions and limitations on coverage and the Company’s insurance may not cover all potential risks associated with the Company’s operations, including the operations in Juanicipio. There can be no assurance that any such insurance will continue to be available, will be available at economically acceptable premiums or will be adequate to cover any resulting liability.

In some cases, such as with respect to environmental risks, coverage is not available or considered too expensive relative to the perceived risk. Losses resulting from any uninsured events may cause the Company to incur significant costs that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations and financial condition. In addition, from time to time, the Company and the Juanicipio Entities may be subject to governmental investigations and claims and litigation filed on behalf of persons who are harmed while at its properties or otherwise in connection with the Company’s operations. To the extent that the Company or the Juanicipio Entities are subject to personal injury or other claims or lawsuits in the future, it may not be possible to predict the ultimate outcome of these claims and lawsuits due to the nature of personal injury litigation. The Company does not carry political risk insurance. Similarly, if the Company or the Juanicipio Entities are subject to governmental investigations or proceedings, they may incur significant penalties and fines, and enforcement actions against them could result in the closing of the Company’s mining operations. If claims and lawsuits or governmental investigations or proceedings are finally resolved against the Company or the Juanicipio Entities, as applicable, the Company’s financial performance, financial position and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Metal prices and marketability fluctuate and any decline in metal prices may have a negative effect on the Company.

Metal prices, including silver, gold, zinc, lead and copper prices, have fluctuated widely in recent years. The marketability and price of any metals that may be acquired or produced by the Company may be affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include delivery uncertainties related to the proximity of potential Mineral Reserves to processing facilities and extensive government regulation relating to price, taxes, royalties, allowable production land tenure, the import and export of minerals and many other aspects of the mining business.

Declines in metal prices may have a negative effect on the Company and on the trading value of its Common Shares.

MINERAL PROJECTS

The Company’s material property at the date of this AIF is its 44% ownership (Fresnillo holds the remaining 56%) in the Juanicipio Entities, which hold Juanicipio.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Mexican mining concessions are issued by the Federal Government of Mexico. All concessions held by Minera Juanicipio are up to date with respect to Mexican Mining Concession Taxes and work filing requirements.

The majority of the Company’s mineral properties are located in remote and relatively uninhabited areas. There are currently no areas of interest to the Company within its mineral concessions that are overlain by significant habitation or industrial users. Notwithstanding this there are potential surface usage issues in some areas. Some surface rights are owned by local communities or “Ejidos” and some surface rights are owned by private ranching or dwelling interests. Exploration activities are not typically materially impacted by competing surface rights issues, although in some areas the Company has been required to negotiate compensation for surface rights holders in order to secure right of access. The Company is required to negotiate either leases or acquire surface rights outright in those areas where it may wish to develop mining operations. At Juanicipio, Minera Juanicipio has acquired some surface rights overlying the Valdecañas and Juanicipio Veins.

In some of the more remote property locations, the access to water, power and basic infrastructure is limited or non-existent. Any mining operations undertaken in such areas will need to take the supply of such requirements into consideration. For the Juanicipio property, the available supply, or the ability to establish supply, of water, power and infrastructure is considered to be adequate or manageable.

Juanicipio

The Juanicipio Mine is located in the Fresnillo District, Zacatecas State, Mexico, approximately 6 kilometres west of the mining town of Fresnillo, and covers approximately 7,679 hectares. The Company initially acquired a 100% interest in Juanicipio in 2003. From 2005 to 2007, Peñoles earned a 56% interest in Juanicipio by conducting $5 million of exploration on the property and purchasing $1 million worth of Common Shares of the Company at market price at the time of purchase. In December 2007, Lagartos and Peñoles established Minera Juanicipio to hold and operate all mineral and surface rights related to Juanicipio. In 2008, Peñoles transferred its 56% interest of Minera Juanicipio to Fresnillo pursuant to a statutory merger. Fresnillo is the operator of Minera Juanicipio, which is governed by the Shareholders’ Agreement and its corporate by-laws. Pursuant to the Shareholders’ Agreement and Minera Juanicipio’s corporate by-laws, each shareholder is to provide funding pro rata to its interest in Minera Juanicipio, with Fresnillo contributing 56% and the Company, through Lagartos, contributing 44%, respectively, and if either party does not fund pro rata, their ownership interest will be diluted in accordance with the Shareholders’ Agreement. On December 27, 2021, for various business reasons, the Company and Fresnillo incorporated Equipos Chaparral, S.A. de C.V. in the same ownership proportions as Minera Juanicipio for the purpose of holding the Juanicipio plant and mining equipment to be leased to Minera Juanicipio.

The major asset associated with Juanicipio is a high-grade silver-gold-lead-zinc epithermal vein deposit. An NI 43-101-compliant technical report commissioned by Minera Juanicipio on behalf of the Company, the 2024 Technical Report, was filed on SEDAR+ on March 27, 2024.

Introduction

The 2024 Technical Report on the Juanicipio property has been prepared by AMC of Vancouver, Canada on behalf of MAG Silver and is reporting updated Mineral Resource estimates and a statement of Mineral Reserve estimates for the first time. The 2024 Technical Report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of NI 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators for lodgement on SEDAR+.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

MAG Silver holds a 44% interest in Minera Juanicipio, the Mexican incorporated joint venture (JV) company that owns (100%) of the Juanicipio property. Fresnillo owns 56% of Minera Juanicipio and is the project operator. The Juanicipio property is located in Zacatecas State, Mexico. Internal feasibility‑level studies completed in 2018 (2018 study work) on behalf of Minera Juanicipio were used to advance the project to construction in April 2019. Underground production of mineralized development material commenced in the third quarter of 2020 and commercial production was declared in mid-2023. Mine operations are still in a ramp-up stage. Nameplate processing capacity of 4,000 tpd was achieved in Q3 2023, with mine ore production averaging about 3,700 tpd in the latter part of the year (approximately 1.3 Mt per annum (“Mtpa”)). Optimization and efficiency improvements are to be worked on in 2024.

Indicated and Measured Mineral Resource estimates are reported for the Valdecañas vein, which constitutes the major part of the Valdecañas vein system. Inferred Mineral Resource estimates are reported for the Valdecañas, Ramal 1, Venadas, and Anticipada parts of the Valdecañas system, and for the Juanicipio vein. Mineral Reserve estimates are reported for the first time and are based on the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources.

Mineral Resource estimates are current as of 31 May 2023 and were prepared by Fresnillo; they have been reviewed by Mr. J. M. Shannon, an independent consultant, who takes Qualified Person responsibility for those estimates. Mineral Reserve estimates are current as of 31 May 2023 and were also prepared by Fresnillo; they have been reviewed by Mr. P. Salmenmaki, of AMC, who takes Qualified Person responsibility for those estimates. The Report has an effective date of 4 March 2024.

The 2024 Technical Report provides an update to the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) which was reported in the “MAG Silver Juanicipio NI 43-101 Technical Report, Amended and Restated, Zacatecas State, Mexico”, (the “2017 AMC Technical Report”). This was prepared by AMC for MAG Silver, with an effective date 21 October 2017, and a revised date 19 January 2018.

The monetary values shown in the 2024 Technical Report are in US dollars ($) unless stated otherwise.

Location

The Juanicipio property is situated about 6 kilometres (km) to the south-west of the city of Fresnillo, which is located about 60 km north-west of the state capital, Zacatecas City. Zacatecas City has a population of approximately 140,000 and is located about 550 km north-west of Mexico City. Zacatecas City is serviced by daily flights from Mexico City. Surface rights to the part of the Juanicipio property where Mineral Resources have been identified are held by Minera Juanicipio.

Geology and Mineralization

The Juanicipio deposit comprises two significant silver-gold epithermal vein systems: the Valdecañas vein system and the Juanicipio vein. The Valdecañas vein system includes the Valdecañas vein itself and four structures named Ramal 1, Venadas, Pre-Anticipada and Anticipada. The Juanicipio vein is located about 1,100 metres (m) south of the Valdecañas vein. Both systems strike east-southeast with an average dip of about 58 degrees (°) south-west. The more recently discovered vertical vein Venadas crosses the Valdecañas vein perpendicularly. The Valdecañas vein hosts most of the Mineral Resources currently estimated on the Juanicipio property.

The Valdecañas vein system has undergone multiple mineralizing events as suggested by various stages of brecciation and quartz sealing, local rhythmic microcrystalline quartz-pyrargyrite-acanthite banding, and open-space cocks-comb textures and vuggy silica. The vein system exhibits the characteristic metal zoning of the principal veins in the Fresnillo district where high grade silver with lower grade lead and zinc transitions to higher grade lead and zinc with less silver with increasing depth.

Exploration and Drilling

Most exploration work on the Juanicipio property has consisted of drilling, both from surface and underground, and underground channel sampling, which has been carried out since 2020. Limited soil sampling programs were carried out until 2017 and exploration to that point was focused on the Valdecañas area. A few additional exploration targets were identified and are discussed in Section 7 of the 2024 Technical Report. Approximately 5% of the concessions have been explored or drilled.

Fresnillo, the operator of Minera Juanicipio, commenced a surface mapping and detailed sampling program in 2016 to assist with identifying additional structures hosting mineralization on the Juanicipio property. This program incorporated hyperspectral analyses of surface and drill core coupled with the collection of 255 rock samples from outcrops exhibiting deformation / veining and alteration. The results of this program have helped improve the conceptual model of epithermal mineralization in the Fresnillo district (Figure 8.1 in the 2024 Technical Report). The results were also used to create a detailed structural and hyperspectral map (Figure 9.1 in the 2024 Technical Report). The dashed white line in Figure 9.1 shows the location of the schematic section in Figure 8.1.

In 2003 and 2004, MAG Silver drilled nine core drillholes totalling 7,346 m. From August 2005 until May 2023, MAG Silver and Fresnillo, on behalf of the joint venture, have drilled a total of 499 core drillholes totalling 380,738 m on the Juanicipio property (Table 10.1 in the 2024 Technical Report). Most of the drilling targeted the Valdecañas vein system. 4,537 channels totalling 4,677 m has been collected since October 2019.

Drilling has been commonly collared using HQ (64 millimetres (mm) core diameter) equipment, reducing to NQ (48 mm core diameter) and BQ (37 mm core diameter) as necessary. The current drilling contractor, Devico, has been using wedges or cement plugs every 30 m to give a deviation up to 9°. Diamond drilling has been carried out using Boart Longyear LF-90 and Atlas Copco CS-14 and CS‑3001 drill rigs.

Overall drillhole spacing varies from 70 m to 100 m along strike and 50 m to 100 m down dip in the plane of mineralization. Core recovery is generally good except in extremely fractured near-surface rock, argillite, or wider fault structures.

Mineral Resource Estimates

The Mineral Resources for the Juanicipio deposit have been prepared by Mr. Gerardo Elly Merino Angel, Resource Geologist of Fresnillo Operations S.A. Mr. John Morton Shannon, P.Geo. reviewed the methodologies and data used to prepare the resource estimates and is satisfied that they comply with reasonable industry practice. Mr. John Morton Shannon takes responsibility for these estimates.

This estimate is dated 31 May 2023 and supersedes the previous estimate outlined in the 2017 AMC Technical Report. The previous estimate had an effective date of 21 October 2017, and included drilling up to December 2016.

The data used in the current estimate includes results of all drilling carried out on the Juanicipio property up to 31 May 2023. Depletion by mining is also up to that date. The database consists of 488 surface and underground diamond drillholes and 972 channel samples.

Mineralization is hosted in six veins within the two major vein systems. Each of the veins has been wireframed separately. Estimates were also done separately, resulting in six block models.

Leapfrog Geo was used to construct the geological domains and to prepare assay data for geostatistical analysis. Leapfrog EDGE version 4.0.5 was used for geostatistical analysis and variography. Datamine RM was used to construct the block model, estimate metal grades, and report out Mineral Resources. Grade interpolation for Au, Ag, Pb, Zn, and Fe were carried out using Ordinary Kriging (OK) for the Valdecañas, Ramal 1, Anticipada, Pre-Anticipada, and Juanicipio veins. For the Venadas vein inverse distance cubed (ID3) was chosen as the interpolation method. The bulk density was estimated into the block model using ID3 for all veins.

The current estimate is summarized in Table 1.1 and expanded in Table 14.16 in the 2024 Technical Report.

Notes:

The Qualified Person is not aware of any known environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socioeconomic, marketing, political, or other similar factors that could materially affect the stated Mineral Resource estimates. This part of Mexico is regarded as a good jurisdiction to operate in, with a solid framework addressing the factors mentioned above.

Fresnillo has been working in the region for decades and operates an additional two major mining operations at Fresnillo and Saucito. It is aware of any local aspects of operating in the district.

Mineral Reserves

The Mineral Reserve statement for the Juanicipio Mine is provided in Table 1.2. Mineral Reserve estimates are based on a cut-off value that considers mining, processing, and general and administration costs, with a variable trucking cost for each mining block. The variable component of the operating cost is generally a small fraction of the overall cost and Mineral Reserves are largely reported above a value of $150/t ore for cut and fill stopes and $122/t ore for longhole stopes. Some marginal ore that may lie on the fringes of other stopes that require development is included at a variable marginal cost that is generally above $121 for cut-and-fill and $93 for longhole stopes. Mineral Reserves are based on Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources only. Mineral Reserves (100% basis) are reported as of 31 May 2023, as shown in Table 1.2.

Geotechnical Considerations

Rock Mass Characterization

The rock mass at Juanicipio was divided into four geotechnical domains based on lithology domains, including:

Both Bieniawski’s RMR89 (Rock Mass Rating) and Barton’s Q system have been used for the rock mass classification for Juanicipio. In development and stoping operation to date, encountered ground conditions have been largely aligned with those projected from the 2018 study work geotechnical assessment. In terms of RMR89, rock qualities in the volcanic domain vary considerably from ‘Very Poor’ to ‘Good’, which is largely associated from weathering and alteration. The fault zones are generally ‘Poor’ to ‘Fair’. Rock qualities of the sedimentary and vein domains are typically ‘Fair’ to ‘Good’, with some ‘Very Poor’ to ‘Poor’ ground being encountered in the vicinity of faults or shale.

Open Stope Stability

The open stope stability assessment in the 2018 study work indicated that:

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

In stoping operations to date, stope design criteria have been adjusted to account for differences in ground conditions including adverse fault structures and unfavourable bedding planes of shale encountered. Figure 1.1 presents the current geotechnical guideline of stoping and backfilling for different rock mass conditions.

Figure 1.1         Geomechanical guideline for stoping and backfilling

Source: Juanicipio, 2024.

6 m long single strand Ø16 mm cable bolts on a 3 m (longitudinal) by 3.5 m (radial) staggered pattern have been installed in the back of stopes as required; 8 m long cablebolts with the same space pattern have been installed at the intersections of stope backs and access drives.

Cavity Monitoring System (CMS) surveying has indicated that footwall ELOS is typically less than 0.4 m, and the hangingwall ELOS is typically within the range of 0.5 m to 1.2 m. Excessive hangingwall overbreak up to 3 m - 3.5 m has been encountered in Poor rock mass conditions or due to the adverse bedding planes of shale.

Ground Support Requirements

The geotechnical support design for Juanicipio underground mining developed during the 2018 study work has been adjusted based on site specific experience. Table 1.3 presents the current primary ground support requirement based on RMR89.

Table 1.3         Ground support requirements for primary support.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Secondary support, such as cablebolts, are designed for large spans in intersections, stope backs, and chambers if the primary support is inadequate. Cablebolt design (lengths and bolting pattern) may vary due to local conditions (excavation dimensions, structures orientations and rock mass qualities) and is assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Spiling is also used at Juanicipio for drifting through Poor ground to prevent unravelling causing overbreak or large instabilities, and limit overbreak due to adverse structures. As required, 12 m long Ø20 mm cement grouted steel bars have been used as spiles and installed above excavation profiles on a 0.5 m spacing prior to development.

Mining Concept

Previous studies considered longhole open stoping (LHOS) with waste rockfill as the preferred mining method; however, in the wider stopes that have been identified at deeper levels, cemented rock fill is planned to be utilized where more than one longitudinal pass is required. Some cut and fill stoping is planned in the upper areas where the ore is thin or ground conditions are deemed ‘Poor’. The steady state production throughput is planned to be approximately 4,000 tpd.

Mineable Shape Optimizer (MSO) has been used to generate stope shapes of mineralization projected to be economically viable. The stopes have then been checked to remove any outlying stopes that would not be economic when the cost of access development is included. Utilizing the selected stopes, the mine design has been updated to allow for changes in the Mineral Resource while maintaining the same underground infrastructure and ventilation strategy as proposed in the 2018 study work. As-built wireframes of the latest development were also provided and included in the mine design. Any mined-out development or stopes were flagged in the model as part of the Mineral Reserve estimation process.

The mine access is via twin declines to the top of the mineralization, with a third (conveyor) decline that is located near the process plant in the Linares valley. The twin main declines access the orebody before splitting into three internal ramp systems that access the ore on a 20 m sub-level spacing, with central accesses to the vein as well as footwall drives to the extents of the mineralization to allow placement of rock fill. Stopes 20 m high (floor to floor) are designed to be mined from the extents back to the central access (retreat) with rock fill placed within 20 m of the retreating face.

The three internal ramps used to access the ore are shown in a projection in Figure 1.2. Waste accesses are developed in the footwall to provide access for backfill directly off the main ramp systems east and west along strike.

Truck haulage is currently used for transporting ore and waste from the mine workings to surface. It is planned to purchase and install a conveyor in the conveyor ramp from 2024 to 2025 as the primary life-of-mine method for transporting ore to the process plant. Until the conveyor is installed and fully operational, ore is continuing to be trucked to surface.

Once the conveyor is in place, ore will be trucked to an ore pass feeding the underground crusher, which is located on 1950 RL, from where it will be transferred to surface via the conveyor (base at 1940 RL). The decline portal for the conveyor is near the processing plant location in the Linares valley.

All waste not placed directly in stopes has been planned to be trucked to surface via the twin main access declines, where it will be stockpiled and later used for backfilling stopes as they are mined out.

The ventilation system for Juanicipio is designed as a ‘pull’ system, with primary exhaust fans located on surface at the top of each of the two primary exhaust raises. The crusher and tipple are planned to be ducted to an exhaust raise and through to surface. The conveyor decline is planned to exhaust both to the conveyor portal and to the crusher exhaust raise. This ensures that the conveyor decline is ventilated independently. Fresh air is delivered into the mine from the two main declines as well as fresh air raises from surface. Fresh air is distributed underground through the declines as well as internal fresh air raises. Internal return air raises carried with the production ramps connect to a dedicated exhaust airway and the return air raises to surface. The Juanicipio Mine design includes an underground workshop at 1850 RL with fuel bay, and an underground magazine at 1920 RL. As such, some fresh air will be supplied to these areas, with the exhaust from each location reporting to a dedicated return air raise.

During pre-production all mobile equipment for development was supplied by a contractor. Since production has begun, stoping has been undertaken by the owner while all development has remained with contractors. An estimate of the mobile equipment fleet requirements was developed based on meeting the demands of the development and production schedule.

Equipment has been selected based on projected productivities, but also considering the practical travel distances between mining zones. As the time to travel from one zone to another could be significant, the planned fleet size for the major pieces of development and production equipment has been based on most pieces being dedicated to a single mining zone. The haul truck fleet sizes, however, have been based on projected ore and waste tonnages as well as the haulage distances to each destination.

Development and production cycle times were evaluated to assist in the determination of the overall mining fleet. A typical development cycle analysis included consideration of jumbo drilling, face charging, mucking, scaling, and bolting, as well as intersection cable bolting, scaling, and shotcreting as required. A typical production cycle analysis consisted of longhole drilling, stope charging, mucking, and backfilling.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Labour requirements are based on an operating schedule of two, 12-hour shifts per day, 350 days per year. This is reduced to approximately 17.0 effective working hours per day after considering travel time, lunch breaks, pre-shift meetings, and other miscellaneous breaks. The workforce estimates have been largely based on operating experience to date and on a productivity analysis of underground activities and the physical requirements of the mine schedule. The underground workforce, as well as geology and survey, is made up of three rotations working a 10-days on and 5-days off schedule. Other technical support staff, mining supervisors and general and administration employees operate on a 5-day per week working schedule. The underground crew numbers are based on the equipment requirements to complete the work as planned. Additional personnel are included to cover absenteeism.

Personnel numbers will fluctuate over time to some extent as per the development and production schedule requirements. Peak total for the mine at full production is estimated to be approximately 1569, with a maximum number on site during the day shift.

Mineral Processing

The Juanicipio processing plant commenced operation in March 2023. Prior to that date, Juanicipio ore was largely processed at the neighbouring Saucito plant.

The Juanicipio plant has a nominal capacity of 4,000 tpd and consists of a comminution circuit with primary crushing and a semi-autogenous grinding mill and ball mill, followed by sequential flotation to produce a silver-rich lead concentrate, then a zinc concentrate, and then a gold-silver-bearing pyrite concentrate. Ultimately, ore crushing will be at an underground crusher, with delivery to the mill stockpile via a conveying system that will exit the mine at the portal adjacent to the mill.

The separate lead, zinc, and pyrite concentrates are thickened, filtered, and stockpiled. Lead and zinc concentrates are stored in separate concentrate storage areas with capacity for seven days of operation. The shipment of concentrates is carried out from Monday to Saturday using a front-end loader and specialized concentrate trucks, which transport the concentrates directly to a smelter or to a port or rail system for onward shipment.

Pyrite concentrates are similarly stored, with a first successful concentrate shipment recently achieved. The Qualified Person notes that the process to produce pyrite concentrates has been in an optimization phase.

Total plant feed for the plant operating period from March to December 2023 was 956,914 t. Average grades for the period were 1.28 g/t Au, 489 g/t Ag, 1.20% Pb, 2.14% Zn, and 6.23% Fe. Average planned grades from Juanicipio mining for the period were 1.21 g/t Au, 434 g/t Ag, 1.10%Pb, and 1.99% Zn.

Gold, silver, lead, and zinc recoveries averaged 69.4%, 87.6%, 89.9%, and 90.5%, respectively, for the March to December 2023 period, compared to planned values of 75.8%, 87.1%, 86.3%, and 74.5%, respectively.

Commissioning and ramp-up have generally gone well, with the plant achieving designed throughput and designed silver, lead and zinc recoveries and concentrate grades. Gold recovery has improved as ramp-up and circuit optimization have progressed, with 71.4% being achieved in December 2023. The Qualified Person notes that, as of February 2024, the Knelson centrifugal concentrator to recover some of the gravity recoverable gold and silver early in the process flow is functioning, with full implementation imminent. The Qualified Person also acknowledges the continuing testing and process development being conducted by the plant’s operators to improve all processing aspects, including for gold recovery, and recommends continuation of the program.

Average mill recoveries of payable metal used to estimate revenue in the financial model are summarized in Table 1.4.

Table 1.4         Mill recoveries

Project Infrastructure

A 6.5 km access road, mostly over hilly terrain, accesses the main declines portal site from the mill, with the plant site being connected to the main highway by a 1.4 km road. Both the 1.4 km two‑lane sealed road, which is suitable for use by heavy vehicles, and the access road to the main portals area are fully constructed and in operation.

Power is currently supplied to a main substation at the processing site via a 115 kilovolts (kV) overhead power line connected to the state-owned power grid. From the mill, a 13.2 kV power line has been extended to the conveyor drive, with a similar line to the main mine portals location. Fibre-optic cable has been installed from the mill control room to the underground mine via the conveyor decline and via the mine overland power line, which extends past the entrance to the conveyor decline and out to the underground mine main portal area. The fibre-optic cable fed into the underground mine from two locations provides some redundancy and greater communications reliability.

With completion of a Reverse Osmosis plant in 2023 and optimizing the consumption of treated municipal wastewater, all process water requirements are satisfied through the exclusive use of treated wastewater, thus eliminating any freshwater requirements from third parties. There are two additional wastewater treatment plants on site to reuse service water for dust control and irrigation of green spaces on the Juanicipio property. Potable water is purchased from local providers as required.

Detailed design of the tailings storage facility (TSF) for Juanicipio was undertaken by Knight Piésold. It is estimated that the Juanicipio processing plant will produce approximately 12.2 Mt of tailings for surface storage over the anticipated mine life of approximately 13 years. Mill tailings will be discharged to a TSF which has a total volume capacity of approximately 8.5 Mt as currently designed. It is envisaged that the remaining required tailings storage will come from potential deepening of the Cell 2 basin (currently being pursued), a future expansion to the TSF through construction of an adjacent cell, and / or from a vertical raise of the dam.

The TSF is designed for two construction and operational phases. Stage 1 will be constructed to a crest elevation of 2,217 m above mean sea level (“amsl”) and will have a maximum height of approximately 33 m. Stage 1 consists of two adjacent cells, Cell 1 to the west and Cell 2 to the east, that share an intermediate berm between the two. When the facility is at its ultimate configuration, Stage 2, the maximum height of the dam will be approximately 38 m, with a crest elevation of 2,222 m amsl. The Stage 1 dam may be considered a starter dam, encircling three sides of the geomembrane-lined tailings storage basin; the fourth side of the facility is created by the natural hillside slope. Only the outer dam will be raised during Stage 2 construction, thus the intermediate berm between Cells 1 and 2 will be covered with tailings during Stage 2 operations. For both the Stage 1 and Stage 2 configurations, the upstream and downstream slopes of the dam are designed to 2.5:1.0 H:V, with a crest width of 10 m.

The Juanicipio TSF features a homogeneous dam (i.e., non-zoned) founded upon native materials. Following site stripping, foundation preparation consists of removing all unsuitable soil strata (i.e., loose, caliche-rich) until reaching a competent layer as determined by site engineers. The dam contains a basal drainage system, consisting of a blanket drain built below the downstream portion of the dam to control potential seepage. Seepage that reaches the blanket drain is conveyed to collection drains along the outer perimeter of the dam, and then discharged into geomembrane-lined collection ponds. Seepage collected in the ponds is recirculated to the TSF, to the processing plant, or, as permitted by geochemical testing and regulations, discharged directly into the downstream environment.

Surface water management at the TSF is facilitated primarily by two non-contact diversion channels, one along the east side of the dam and the other along the south end and west sides of the facility. The channels are verified to accommodate run-on from the 1,000-year storm event as required by Comisiόn Nacional de Agua (“CONAGUA”). The east diversion channel is concrete-lined and the south/west channel is geotextile and riprap lined to deter erosion. Both channels feature energy dissipators at their termini prior to flow discharging into the downstream native environment. The TSF does not contain an operational spillway as it has been designed to store rainfall and run-on associated with the 72-hour probable maximum precipitation (“PMP”).

Underground Infrastructure

The ore handling system is based around a nominal 4,000 tpd production capacity, approximately equivalent to 216 tonnes per hour (tph) over a 24-hour period, based on a capacity factor of 1.3. This allows for excess capacity in the ore handling system relative to any potential disconnection between the mine and mill. Ore is currently trucked to surface and then to the mill stockpile. Once the conveyor system to surface is in operation, ore transport from various mining levels will be by truck haulage to the crusher on 1950 RL. The crushed material will then be placed on a load-out belt that feeds the first of two sequential underground conveyors that bring the material to surface. At surface, a third conveyor delivers the material to an 8,000 tonne capacity stockpile that is adjacent to the mill.

Later in the mine life, an internal shaft (“winze”) may be considered to allow hoisting of crushed ore from the loading pocket on 1300 RL up to the loading bin on 1950 RL. From there, the ore would be conveyed out of the mine via the existing conveyor system. An alternative arrangement using vertical conveyors is also being evaluated. Access to the top of the proposed winze or vertical conveyor is already developed. The selected hoisting facility would accommodate the production capacity of 1.4 Mtpa, with spare capacity built-in.

Development waste is either hauled to surface by trucks via the twin access declines or placed directly into stopes as backfill. All waste hauled to surface to date is stored near the current portal and has been largely used for construction material. As mining progresses, additional waste required for subsequent backfilling is planned to be delivered down a waste pass driven as close to the deposit as practicable, and then distributed to the stopes.

Separate explosives magazines have been developed for detonators and high explosives (ANFO and packaged emulsion explosives). The primary explosives magazine has a concrete floor and is fitted with an overhead manual lifting system for handling bulk ANFO explosive. The explosives magazines are located on 1920 RL.

Although the main maintenance workshop is located on surface, all major scheduled planned maintenance and rebuilds will take place in the underground workshop. The underground workshop is located on 1850 Level and has multiple service bays with overhead cranes. The workshop is also being fitted with lunchroom, workstations, communications room, and emergency facilities.

Mobile electrical compressors supply compressed air for the underground operations and primary equipment such as longhole drills have their own mobile compressors. The main compressor is located near the No 2 fan on surface above the portals of the twin declines. Air supply to the underground workshop is from this compressor via the main decline.

Refuge station chambers with 30-person capacity are used for emergencies; these chambers are portable for flexibility of location at the most appropriate areas of the mine.

The groundwater inflow into the mine was estimated using pre-drilling ahead of ramp development. SRK conducted the groundwater studies and provided the predrilling program. There are two temporary pump stations already in operation that together can handle 2,500 gallons per minute (gpm). The main pump station on 1850 Level has three pumps installed with a fourth available on stand-by. The current capacity is 5,000 gpm. A second permanent pump station is planned for 1650 Level that will pump to the 1850 Level station. A further main pump station is planned for the bottom of the mine (1250 Level) with a capacity of 2,500 gpm. It is estimated that the current and planned pump stations should provide sufficient capacity for the life of the mine.

The overall plan for handling groundwater is an advanced dewatering strategy that will largely depend on accessing the lower levels of the mine well ahead of stope production. This early development approach provides a means for installing a series of dewatering holes and sumps that will dewater sections of the mine prior to production mining. The risk of flooding will be partially mitigated by this early development strategy and by the provision of spare pumping capacity.

In 2023, the majority of Juanicipio process and operational water requirements was sourced from dewatering underground workings, with the water used primarily for mine development and dust control. Juanicipio also purchased potable well water from third parties for mine development and domestic use.

Environmental, Permitting, and Social Aspects

Environmental investigations included baseline assessments and initial studies required under Mexican Environmental Laws, inclusive of a Regional Environmental Impact Statement (MIA-R).

The mine is in a region that hosts several significant mining operations where the community is accustomed to mining activities. The Qualified Person is not aware of any environmental permitting or licensing requirements to which the Juanicipio property has been or will be subject other than the normal mine permitting and licensing requirements as set forth by the Mexican Government.

Fresnillo, on behalf of Minera Juanicipio, has confirmed that the project does not have any environmental obligations or liabilities identified to date.

Key permits and licenses for the project are in place and Fresnillo has indicated that all the land included in the design and operation of the Juanicipio Mine has been purchased. There is no further expected requirement in this regard.

Climate change aspects were not specifically addressed in the Mineral Reserve estimation, but the Qualified Person considers that, for Juanicipio, any impacts would not have a material effect.

Project Development and Production Schedule

Underground production of mineralized development material at Juanicipio commenced in the third quarter of 2020 and commercial production was declared in mid-2023. Mine operations are still in a ramp-up stage.

Nameplate processing capacity of 4,000 tpd was achieved in Q3 2023, with mine ore production averaging about 3,700 tpd in the latter part of the year (approximately 1.3 Mtpa). Optimization and efficiency improvements are to be worked on in 2024.

The productivity assumptions used for scheduling are shown in Table 1.5.

Table 1.5         Productivity assumptions

Source: Fresnillo, 2023.

All scheduling is carried out using Enhanced Production Scheduling (EPS) software. During the EPS scheduling, additional dilution ranging from 1% to 5% for mucking and other sources, as well as mining recovery factors are applied (95% for longhole stoping and 98% for cut and fill). Stopes are then checked for economic viability (above cut-off) and any uneconomic stopes removed from the mine plan and Mineral Reserve estimate.

The EPS production schedule is summarized in Table 1.6. The schedule provides a sequence of mining events that are driven by defined constraints. The Qualified Person notes that, for the Juanicipio Economic Analysis, the EPS schedule has been adjusted to include actual values for 2023. The Qualified Person also notes that, for the LOM total values, there are only minor and non-material differences between those in the Ore Reserve estimate and those in the production schedule.

Project Capital Costs

AMC completed a capital cost estimate as part of the 2018 study work. Since then, Fresnillo has advanced the project through detailed engineering, project construction, and initial mine development and stoping leading to achievement of commercial production in mid-2023. Internal estimates for the remaining Juanicipio capital, inclusive of sustaining capital and as of 31 May 2023, total $453 M. A summary of projected capital costs is shown in Table 1.7.

Table 1.7         Summary of projected capital costs

Note: Numbers may not compute exactly due to rounding.

Site Operating Costs

The operating costs used for the evaluation of project economics are based on actual operating costs and benchmark costs for similar operations in the area. Average LOM operating costs from the latest cost model for the 2023 Mineral Reserves are summarized as follows:

For cut-off purposes, the average cut-off values used were $122/t for longhole stopes and $150/t for cut-and-fill stopes to also cover the LOM sustaining capital costs for mining, processing, and G&A; and the operating management fee (totalling $36/t). Similarly, marginal cut-off values generally above $93/t for longhole stopes and $121/t for cut-and-fill stopes were used.

Offsite Costs (Concentrate Transport, Treatment, and Refining Costs)

Market contracts are in place for the Juanicipio ore. Lead and zinc treatment charges of $198/dry metric tonne (dmt) concentrate and $320/dmt concentrate, respectively, are applied. Freight costs are $37/wet metric tonne (wmt) and $36/wmt for the lead and zinc concentrate, respectively. Refinery costs of $17/oz for gold and $1/oz for silver are also incorporated into the NSR calculations.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

A first delivery of pyrite concentrate to an overseas buyer was recently achieved. The terms for that shipment included payment for 50% of the final silver and gold content in the concentrate. The same terms have been assumed for the economic assessment in the 2024 Technical Report.

Taxes

The tax provisions include a conventional profit-based tax using the 30% corporate tax rate currently in effect. A 7.5% special mining duty is applied on earnings after allowable expenses and before taxes, and a 0.5% gross revenue royalty is applied on all gold and silver revenues.

Projected Sales

Project economics have been assessed using the following metal prices, which were selected after discussion with Fresnillo and MAG Silver representatives and referencing current market and recent historical prices, values used in other recent mineral projects reporting on SEDAR+, and forecasts in the public domain:

Existing terms of current concentrate sale agreements have been assumed for the economic assessment. For the purposes of this report, it is assumed that all lead, zinc, and pyrite concentrates over the LOM are transported to Torreón, Mexico for smelting.

Economic Analysis

All dollar values are considered constant and are in US dollars ($) unless otherwise stated. The cost estimate was prepared with a base date of Year 1 (2023) and use constant Year 1 dollars (no inflation). For net present value (NPV) estimation, all costs and revenues are discounted at 5% from the base date. An exchange rate of MXP19:US$1, a corporate tax rate of 30%, special mining duty of 8.5%, and 1% gross gold and silver revenue royalty have been assumed.

To facilitate assessment of economic viability, production physicals from the EPS schedule as of 31 May 2023 were uploaded into a simplified economic model. The start date for the economic analysis is 1 June 2023, with all discounted metrics reflecting that start date. For simplicity, the period June to December of 2023 is treated as a full year when applying discounting. The economic model includes current estimates for LOM capital and operating costs. 2023 ore production and operating cost values in the economic model are ‘Actuals’ from June to December as indicated by Minera Juanicipio monthly reports. The results of the analysis show that the project continues to maintain positive and robust economics.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Table 1.8 provides a summary of the key inputs and results of the economic analysis. Over a 13‑year operating life, the mine is projected to generate approximately $1,656M pre-tax NPV and $1,224M post-tax NPV at 5% discount rate.

Interpretations, Conclusions, and Recommendations

Drilling

In the opinion of the Qualified Person, the drilling strategy and procedures used by Fresnillo on the Juanicipio property conform to generally accepted industry best practices and are suitable for this deposit. The drilling information is sufficiently reliable, and the drilling pattern is sufficiently dense to interpret with confidence the geometry and the boundaries of silver, gold, zinc, and lead mineralization in the Valdecañas vein system, and the Juanicipio vein. All diamond drill core sampling has been conducted by appropriately qualified personnel under the direct supervision of appropriately qualified geologists.

The Qualified Person is not aware of any drilling, sampling, or recovery factors that could materially impact the accuracy and reliability of diamond drilling results from the Valdecañas vein system, or the Juanicipio vein.

	MAG Silver Corp.	2024 Annual Information Form

Sample Preparation, Analyses, and Security – QA/QC Recommendations

Fresnillo has recently implemented a quality assurance and quality control (“QA/QC”) program that combines key elements to monitor accuracy, precision, and sample contamination during sample preparation and analysis. The Qualified Person makes the following recommendations for future QAQC programs:

Sample Preparation, Analyses, and Security - Conclusions

The Qualified Person considers sample preparation and analytical and security protocols employed by Fresnillo to be acceptable. The Qualified Person has reviewed the QA/QC procedures used by Fresnillo including certified reference materials, blank, duplicate and umpire data and has made some recommendations. The Qualified Person does not consider these to have a material impact on the Mineral Resource estimate and considers the assay database to be adequate for Mineral Resource estimation.

Data Verification

The Qualified Persons consider the assay database to be acceptable for Mineral Resource estimation.

Mineral Resources Interpretation and Conclusions

Six veins have been estimated. All are classified as Inferred except for portions of the Valdecañas vein, which have been classified as Measured and Indicated. The development of the underground operation with dense drilling and underground sampling has enabled the classification of Measured Resources on this vein for the first time. Measured material consists of 8.5% of the Measured and Indicated material on this vein.

Since the last Mineral Resource reported by MAG in 2018, Measured and Indicated tonnes have increased by 32.5%. Average LOM silver grades have decreased by 27.4% and average gold grades have decreased by 11.4%; average lead and zinc grades have increased by 37.0% and 44.6% respectively. This reflects additional drilling in the lower, more base-metal-rich part of the deposit.

Inferred tonnes increased by 15.8%. In the Inferred category, silver grades have increased by 1.7%, lead grades have decreased by 2.0% and zinc grades have increased by 30.8%. The gold grades decreased in the Inferred Resource by 26.4%.

In regard to the management of the current Mineral Resource, reconciliation from the resource model to the short-term model and to what is actually produced is recommended to be pursued further.
