<P style="margin:0pt" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:normal; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>In 2004, Pan American implemented a hedge accounting policy for the accounting treatment of its base-metal forward contracts program. &nbsp;In the fourth quarter of 2005 it was concluded that the Company&#146;s accounting for its forward contracts for the sale of base metals (lead and zinc) ,its forward contracts for purchasing Mexican pesos with US dollars and its silver fixing contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting under AcG-13, Hedging Relationships. &nbsp;As a result, Pan American has restated its unaudited consolidated financial statements for each quarter from March 31, 2004 to September 30, 2005.</P>
<P style="margin:0pt" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Pan American is now required to recognize mark-to market valuations of its open forward contract positions through its income at the end of each period. &nbsp;In the past, Pan American had recognized gains, losses, revenues and expenses from its forward contracts in its income only in the period in which they settled. &nbsp;The effects of the change in accounting treatment are summarized in the following tables:</P>

<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Depreciation and amortization charges for the third quarter increased significantly to $3.03 million from $0.43 million a year before. &nbsp;The purchase of Morococha and the achievement of commercial production at La Colorada are the principal reasons for this increase. &nbsp;Depreciation and amortization have also increased as a direct result of the Company&#146;s adoption of CICA Handbook Section 3110 &#150; &#147;Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations&#148;, which required the Company to increase its asset carrying values by $7.9 million as at December 31, 2003. &nbsp;The amortization of these higher asset values on a unit of production basis has resulted in increased depreciation charges. &nbsp;</P>

<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>The Company recognized a $0.52 million stock-based compensation expense in the third quarter of 2004, as a result of adopting CICA Handbook Section 3870 &#150; &#147;Stock-Based Compensation&#148; in the fourth quarter of 2003.

<P style="margin:0pt" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Reclamation expense of $0.30 million in the third quarter of 2004 related to the accretion of the liability that the Company recognized by adopting CICA Handbook Section 3110 &#150; &#147;Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations&#148; as at December 31, 2003. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Aside from those restoration costs associated with the Morococha mine, there has been no change to the Company&#146;s expectations of future site restoration costs during the quarter at any of its other mines.</P>

<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Interest and other income represented net income received from the San Vicente operation and interest received from the cash balances the Company maintained during the quarter, which were substantially higher than a year ago primarily due to the proceeds of the Debentures, together with the equity financing completed in March 2004.</P>

<P style="margin:0pt" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Pan American produced 3,173,000 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2004, a 45 per cent increase from the corresponding period in 2003. &nbsp;The acquisition of the Morococha mine accounts for 32 per cent of the increase, with significant increases at La Colorada and the San Vicente operation responsible for the balance. &nbsp;The Quiruvilca mine maintained its strong performance by producing more ounces than a year ago at much lower cash costs per ounce. &nbsp;The Huaron mine continued to improve on a challenging first quarter by recording higher silver production than in the third quarter of 2003 at a cash cost of $3.87 per ounce. &nbsp;The Company&#146;s Pyrite Stockpile operation was again profitable, producing 231,115 ounces of silver during the quarter at cash costs of $2.87 per ounce. &nbsp;</P>
<P style="margin:0pt"><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>While production rates at the La Colorada mine are steadily increasing, as expected the mine was not able to cover its cash operating costs in the third quarter. &nbsp;A revised mining and processing plan has been developed and implemented to address the major issues that have hampered the mine since the start of commercial production at the beginning of 2004. &nbsp;The primary component of the plan was a switch to a more selective narrow vein mining method, which has decreased tonnes mined but substantially increased ore grades reported to the mill. &nbsp;In addition, the Company plans to further expand the reserve and resource base at the mine and to provide greater development flexibility in the future. The Company still expects La Colorada to achieve an annualized production rate of 3.5 million ounces at cash costs of less than $3.50 per ounce; however, the Company now believes these levels will not be reached until 
January 2005.</P>
<P style="margin:0pt" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:13pt; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:5.5pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Consolidated cash costs for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004 were $4.01 per ounce compared to $4.12 per ounce for the corresponding period of 2003. &nbsp;During this period, cash costs improved significantly at Quiruvilca, were stable at Huaron but were offset by higher than expected costs at La Colorada. &nbsp;With the addition of the low-cost Morococha mine and improvements at La Colorada, the Company expects consolidated cash costs to continue to decrease and is estimating consolidated silver production of approximately 11.5 million ounces at a cash cost of below $4.00 per ounce for 2004.</P>

<P style="line-height:normal; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>At September 30, 2004, cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments were $80.84 million, a $37.90 million decrease from June 30, 2004. &nbsp;Investing activities consumed $37.32 million in cash and consisted primarily of the acquisition of the Morococha mine testing the viability of increasing production to a total of 2 million ounces per year for $36.21 million, expenditures on mineral property, plant and equipment of $2.68 million and proceeds from the liquidation of short-term investments of $2.01 million. &nbsp;Cash flow from operating activities was $7.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 before the net increase of $6.58 million in non-cash working capital. &nbsp;Increased non-cash working capital was primarily the result of increased accounts receivable and concentrate inventories associated with the concentrate producing Morococha mine. &nbsp;Financing activities in the third quarter yield
ed $0.79 million mainly from the exercise of stock options. &nbsp;</P>
<P style="margin:0pt" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Working capital at September 30, 2004 was $94.55 million, a reduction of $30.8 million from June 30, 2004. &nbsp;The reduction is reflected largely in a $37.90 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments plus a $3.15 million increase in current liabilities, offset by increases of $6.66 million in accounts receivable, $3.03 million in inventories and $1.28 million in prepaid expenses. </P>
<P style="margin:0pt" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Capital resources at September 30, 2004 amounted to shareholders&#146; equity of $260.81 million, capital leases of $0.33 million and deferred revenue of $0.75 million. &nbsp;At September 30, 2004, the Company had 66,752,572 common shares issued and outstanding.</P>
<P style="margin:0pt" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt">Based on the Company&#146;s financial position at September 30, 2004 and the operating cash flows that are expected over the next twelve months, management believes that the Company&#146;s liquid assets are more than sufficient to fund planned operating and project development and sustaining capital expenditures and discharge liabilities as they come due. The Company&#146;s only contractual obligation at the date of this MD&amp;A was $0.4 million relating to a capital lease payable over the next two years. &nbsp;The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.</P>

<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Pan American mitigates the price risk associated with its base metal production by selling some of its forecasted base metal production under forward sales contracts. &nbsp;The Company incurred base metal hedging losses in the third quarter of 2004 totaling $3.36 million. &nbsp;At September 30, 2004, the Company had sold forward 25,140 tonnes of zinc at a weighted average price of $1,062 per tonne ($0.482 per pound) and 6,170 tonnes of lead at a weighted average price of $722 per tonne ($0.328 per pound). The forward sales commitments for zinc represent approximately 45 per cent of the Company&#146;s forecast zinc production until December 2005. &nbsp;The lead forward sales commitments represent approximately 35 per cent of the Company&#146;s forecast lead production until June 2005. At September 30, 2004, the cash offered prices for zinc and lead were $1,102 and $976 per tonne, respectively. The mark to market value at 
September 30, 2004 was ($2.57) million. &nbsp;However, due to significant declines in the price of zinc and lead since September 30, 2004, at the date of this MD&amp;A the mark to market valuation had improved to ($0.71) million.</P>

<P style="line-height:13pt; margin:0pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>At Huaron, progress towards expanding production rates continued during the quarter. &nbsp;The mine was able to maintain the monthly mining rates achieved in the second quarter, and is currently processing approximately 12 per cent more ore per month than a year ago. &nbsp;As part of the plan to increase production by up to 30 per cent at the Huaron mine, the Company initiated a second phase drill program focused on resource conversion. &nbsp;This is a continuation of the $1 million first phase drilling program completed in the first half of the year. &nbsp;Rehabilitation of the mine&#146;s 500 level is ongoing and is a key component of the plan to establish a second mining area, thereby allowing for an overall increase in monthly ore extraction. &nbsp;The cost of this program is being capitalized. &nbsp;</P>

<P style="line-height:13pt; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:5.5pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>During the third quarter of 2004, the Company completed a positive scoping study for the 50 per cent owned Manantial Espejo project in Argentina. &nbsp;Based on the results of the study, the Company will begin capitalizing future expenditures at the project with effect from October 1, 2004 and will continue to move forward with the study. &nbsp;Hatch Engineers developed the plant and infrastructure capital and operating cost estimates for the purposes of this scoping study. &nbsp;Snowden Engineers completed the scoping level open pit mining operating and capital cost estimates, which incorporated an updated mineral resource estimate. &nbsp;Vector Engineers have completed the archeological field program with no significant findings within the proposed disturbed area and the environmental baseline field programs are well underway. &nbsp;An additional 5,000 meters of infill and extension drilling ha
s been initiated, together with drilling to secure a water supply for the mine. &nbsp;The feasibility study for the project is expected to be completed by early 2005. &nbsp;Pan American&#146;s share of the feasibility costs in the first nine months of 2004 was $1.63 million, which was expensed as incurred. </P>

<P style="line-height:13pt; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:5.5pt; font-family:Arial; font-size:11pt" align=justify>At Alamo Dorado in Mexico, a full time project manager has been hired as the Company started the process of staffing up for construction and operation. &nbsp;Progress has been made toward securing a power supply and the mine concessions have been successfully upgraded to exploitation concessions and explosives license received. &nbsp;Site hydrological investigations including development of a ground water monitoring program for any tailings facility designs are underway. &nbsp;Grindability tests were performed during the quarter and as a follow on from these tests, a pilot plant has been activated. &nbsp;The updated feasibility study is scheduled for completion in February 2005 incorporating the revised environmental permitting, pilot plant evaluation and tailings disposal facility design associated with the milling facility. </P>
