Pan American Silver Corp Q4 2021 Earnings Call Transcript

The following is excerpted from the question-and-answer section of the transcript.

Question: Don DeMarco - National Bank Financial, Inc., Research Division - Analyst : Couple of questions. First of all, Michael, you had mentioned that the production is going to be back-end loaded, which I had sort of expected maybe, given the delays to the guidance and we would expect that Q1 would be the biggest impact. Can you confirm if that's the case then, so we would expect Q1 to be the lightest quarter of the year? And would we expect maybe some of that lightness to be more focused on the underground mines, where the COVID impacts are believed to be the greatest?

Question: Don DeMarco - National Bank Financial, Inc., Research Division - Analyst : Okay. Well, we'll look for that. And as a second question, just shifting to Escobal, so it's encouraging to hear that this ILO 169 pre-consultation process has resumed, you had 3 meetings last year, but can you give us some kind of a sense of what -- we're still in this pre-consultation stage which implies that it's in an early stage, pre. Will we be heading to a consultation stage at some point, or what could we expect over 2022, if there's no interruptions to the meetings?
