The Company produces and sells gold and silver from its operations in Canada, the United States and Argentina, and has a number of exploration and development assets in Canada, the United States, Mexico and Argentina.

The Company owns a 100% interest in the Gold Bar mine in Nevada, United States, the Fox Complex in Ontario, Canada, the Fenix Project in Sinaloa, Mexico and a portfolio of exploration properties in Nevada, Canada, Mexico and Argentina. The Company also owns a 51.9% interest in McEwen Copper Inc.

(“MSC”), owner of the producing San José silver-gold mine in Santa Cruz, Argentina, which is operated by the joint venture majority owner Hochschild Mining plc. The Company reports its investment in McEwen Copper as a controlling interest and its investment in MSC as an equity investment.

The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and are unaudited. While information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements and prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, the Company believes that the information and disclosures included in the interim consolidated financial statements are adequate and not misleading. Therefore, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the summary of significant accounting policies included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Except as noted below, there have been no material changes in the footnotes from those accompanying the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

In management’s opinion, the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (“Statement of Operations”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet as at September 30, 2023 and the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet as at December 31, 2022, the unaudited Consolidated Statement of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, contained herein, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring items, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows on a basis consistent with that of the Company’s prior audited consolidated financial statements. However, the results of operations for the interim periods may not be indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments over which the Company exerts significant influence but does not control through majority ownership are accounted for using the equity method.

NOTE 2 OPERATING SEGMENT REPORTING

​

The Company is a mining and minerals production and exploration company focused on precious and base metals in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Argentina. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) reviews the operating results, assesses performance and makes decisions about the allocation of resources to these segments at the geographic region level or major mine/project level where the economic characteristics of the individual mines or projects within a geographic region are not alike. As a result, these operating segments also represent the Company’s reportable segments for accounting purposes. The Company’s business activities that are not considered operating segments are included in General and Administrative and Other Income or Expense line item in the below table, and are provided for reconciliation purposes.

​

The CODM reviews segment income or loss, defined as gold and silver sales less production costs applicable to sales, depreciation and depletion, advanced projects and exploration costs, for all segments except for the MSC segment, which is evaluated based on the attributable equity income or loss. Gold and silver sales and production costs applicable to sales for the reportable segments are reported net of intercompany transactions. Capital expenditures include costs capitalized in mineral property interests and plant and equipment in the respective periods.

​

Significant information relating to the Company’s reportable operating segments for the periods presented is summarized in the tables below:

asset retirement costs are charged to expense based on the units of production method upon commencement of production. The Company’s Gold Bar Mine and San José properties have proven and probable reserves estimated in accordance with S-K 1300. The Fox Complex is depleted and depreciated using the units-of-production method over estimated mineral resources, as the project does not have proven and probable reserves that conform to the guidance under S-K 1300.

The Company reviews and evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment on a quarterly basis or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Once it is determined that impairment exists, an impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the asset carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, no indicators of impairment have been noted for any of the Company’s mineral property interests.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The following table identifies certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, as reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Fair value as at September 30, 2023 |  | Fair value as at December 31, 2022
​ |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Total |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Total
Marketable equity securities | ​ | $ | 40,833 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 40,833 | ​ | $ | 1,133 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 1,133
Total investments | ​ | $ | 40,833 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 40,833 | ​ | $ | 1,133 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 1,133

​

Marketable equity securities that the Company holds are exchange-traded and are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and as such are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the investment is calculated as the quoted market price of the marketable equity security multiplied by the number of shares held by the Company.

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities held at September 30, 2023 were assumed to approximate their carrying values due to their historically negligible credit losses.

Debt is recorded at a carrying value of $40.0 million (December 31, 2022 – $64.0 million). The debt is not traded on quoted markets and approximates its fair value based on recent refinancing.

NOTE 16 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In addition to the commitments for payments on operating and finance leases and the repayment of long-term debt (Note 10), as at September 30, 2023 the Company has the following commitments and contingencies:

Reclamation Obligations

As part of its ongoing business and operations, the Company is required to provide bonding for its environmental reclamation obligations. As at September 30, 2023, the Company had surety facilities in place to cover its bonding obligations, which include $27.8 million of bonding in Nevada and $11.6 million (C$15.6 million) of bonding in Canada.

The terms of the facilities carry an average annual financing fee of 2.3% and require a deposit of 11%. Surety bonds are available for draw-down by the beneficiary in the event the Company does not perform its reclamation obligations. If the specific reclamation requirements are met, the beneficiary of the surety bonds will release the instrument to the issuing entity. The Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable bonding obligations and will be able to satisfy future bonding requirements, through existing or alternative means, as they arise. As at September 30, 2023, the Company recorded $4.2 million in restricted cash in non-current assets as a deposit against the surety facility.

Streaming Agreement

As part of the acquisition of the Fox Complex in 2017, the Company assumed a gold purchase agreement (streaming contract) related to production from certain land claims. The Company is obligated to sell 8% of gold production from the Black Fox mine (including the Froome deposit) and 6.3% from the adjoining Pike River property (Black Fox extension) to Sandstorm Gold Ltd. at the lesser of market price or $561 per ounce (with inflation adjustments of up to 2% per year) until 2090. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the realized price for the streaming contract was $589 per ounce including inflation adjustments.

September 30, 2023

(tabular amounts are in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted)

The Company records the revenue from these shipments based on the contract price at the time of delivery to the customer. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded revenue of $0.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $0.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively) related to the gold stream sales.

​

Flow-through Eligible Expenses

On March 2, 2022, the Company completed a flow-through share issuance for gross proceeds of $15.1 million. The proceeds of this offering are required to be used for the continued exploration of the Company’s properties in the Timmins region of Canada. As at September 30, 2023, the Company has incurred $12.8 million of the required CEE spend and expects to fulfill the remaining $2.3 million of the CEE commitments by the end of 2023.

Prepayment Agreement

On July 31, 2023, the Company extended the existing precious metals purchase agreement with Auramet International LLC (“Auramet”). Under this agreement, the Company may sell the gold on a Spot Basis, on a Forward Basis and on a Supplier Advance basis, i.e., the gold is priced and paid for while the gold is:

| (i) | at a mine for a maximum of 15 business days before shipment; or

| (ii) | in transit to a refinery; or

| (iii) | while being refined at a refinery.

​

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company received net proceeds of $41.2 million and $93.4 million, respectively, from the sales on a Supplier Advance Basis (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 – $20.5 million). The Company recorded revenue of $83.2 million related to the gold sales, with the remaining $10.2 million representing 5,330 ounces pledged but not yet delivered to Auramet, recorded as a contract liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other potential contingencies

The Company’s mining and exploration activities are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and generally becoming more restrictive. The Company conducts its operations so as to protect public health and the environment, and believes its operations are materially in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations.

The Company and its predecessors have transferred their interest in several mining properties to third parties throughout its history. The Company could remain potentially liable for environmental enforcement actions related to its prior ownership of such properties. However, the Company has no reasonable belief that any violation of relevant environmental laws or regulations has occurred regarding these transferred properties.

​

On February 23, 2023, the Company and its subsidiary, McEwen Copper, closed an equity financing with a single investor, FCA Argentina S.A., an Argentinian subsidiary of Stellantis N.V.

We suggest that you read this discussion in conjunction with MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS and our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

​

The discussion contains financial performance measures that are not prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP” or “GAAP”). Each of the following is a non-GAAP measure: adjusted net income or loss, adjusted net income or loss per share, cash gross profit, total cash gross profit, cash costs, cash cost per ounce, all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”), all-in sustaining cost per ounce, and average realized price per ounce. These non-GAAP measures are used by management in running the business and we believe they provide useful information that can be used by investors to evaluate our performance and our ability to generate cash flows. These measures do not have standardized definitions and should not be relied upon in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Cash Costs equals Production Costs Applicable to Sales and is used interchangeably throughout the document.

For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the amounts included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 and to our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and certain limitations inherent in such measures, please see the discussion under “Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures,” beginning on page 31.

This discussion also includes references to “advanced-stage properties,” which are defined as properties for which advanced studies and reports have been completed indicating the presence of measured, indicated, and inferred resources or proven and probable reserves, or that have obtained or are in the process of obtaining the required permitting. Our designation of certain properties as “advanced-stage properties” should not suggest that we have or ever will have proven or probable reserves at those properties as defined by S-K 1300.

​

Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MDA”), the reporting periods for the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 are abbreviated as Q3/23 and Q3/22, respectively, and the reporting periods for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 are abbreviated as 9M/23 and 9M/22, respectively.

​

In addition, in this report, gold equivalent ounces (“GEO”) includes gold and silver ounces calculated based on a gold to silver ratio of 83:1 for 9M/23 and 9M/22. Beginning with Q2/19, we adopted a variable gold to silver ratio for reporting that approximates the average price during each fiscal quarter.

Q3/23 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

​

Highlights for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, are summarized below, and discussed further under “Consolidated Performance”:

​

Corporate Developments

​

| ● | Subsequent to September 30, 2023, McEwen Copper closed on financings with Stellantis and Nuton LLC, a Rio Tinto Venture, raising ARS 42 billion and $10.0 million, respectively, at $26 per share, implying a market value of $800.0 million for McEwen Copper. The proceeds of the private placements will be used to advance development of the Los Azules copper project in San Juan, Argentina, and for general corporate purposes. As part of these private placements, McEwen Mining sold 232,000 common shares of McEwen Copper in return for $6.0 million. As of the date of the MD&A, the Stellantis and Nuton hold approximately 19.4% and 14.5%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of McEwen Copper, while McEwen Mining reduced its ownership to 47.7% We expect to deconsolidate McEwen Copper from McEwen Mining consolidated financial statements in the fourth quarter of 2023 and account for the current 47.7% ownership as an equity investment.

​

Operational Highlights

​

| ● | Consolidated GEO production in Q3/23 improved compared to both Q2/23 and Q3/22. We produced 38,478 GEOs in Q3/23 which included 17,798 attributable GEOs from the San José mine(1) and reiterate our consolidated production guidance of 150,000 to 170,000 GEOs for full year 2023.

| ● | Sustained mill production above 1,200 tonnes per day at our Fox Complex operations. Crushing remained consistent at our Froome mine, allowing the operation to process 1,260 average tonnes per day (“tpd”) during Q3/23, slightly exceeding records set in Q2/23. We produced 11,174 GEOs during Q3/23 and Fox Complex remains on track to meet guidance of 42,000 to 48,000 GEOs for full year 2023.

| ● | At the Gold Bar Mine, we produced 9,509 GEOs during Q3/23, an increase of 20% compared to Q2/23. Production continues to increase quarterly, though delays from weather related incidents and labor constraints during 2023 have impacted our annual outlook. Subsequent to quarter end, our announced heap leach expansion project was completed and permitted. We have also hired additional crushing crews enabling the operation of the crushing circuit 24 hours per day, resulting in the acceleration of daily gold ounce production from our operations at the beginning of Q4/23. We now expect production from Gold Bar to be between 36,500 to 40,000 GEOs, down from previous production guidance of 42,000 to 48,000 GEOs for full year 2023, with higher production shifting into the first quarter of 2024.

| ● | At the San José Mine, Q3/23 production increased by 3% compared to Q2/23 due to a modest improvement in processed tonnes. However, MSC’s 2023 production was 7% lower than revised mine plan targets for Q3/23 due to lower than planned gold and silver head grades. We reiterate production guidance of 66,000 to 74,000 GEOs for full year 2023.

| ● | We continue to advance our exploration program at Los Azules. Planning activities for the 2023-2024 drilling campaign were completed in the quarter, and we are targeting 157,000 feet (48,000 meters) of infill resource drilling in the upcoming program. 14 out of a total of 18 to 20 planned drill rigs are currently underway with mobilization. Drilling using tricone roller cone drill bits has been initiated on 4 holes in October 2023. Confirmatory metallurgical testing and environmental baseline studies are underway, and critical preliminary engineering contracts have been awarded for hydrogeologic field investigations and geotechnical studies to support the delivery of a feasibility study by the end of Q1 2025.

| ● | We continue to meet safety expectations at our 100% owned operations. During Q3/23, we did not have any lost-time incidents at our Fox Complex, Gold Bar Mine, and El Gallo operations.

​

Financial Highlights

​

| ● | We reported consolidated cash and cash equivalents of $49.1 million, of which $45.2 million is to be used towards advancing the Los Azules copper project, and consolidated working capital of $72.3 million as at September 30, 2023. We also reported investments of $40.8 million, which consists of liquid securities held in Argentina to mitigate inflation and devaluation risks.

Table of Contents

| ● | Revenues of $38.4 million were reported in Q3/23 from the sale of 20,620 GEOs from our 100% owned operations at an average realized price(2) of $1,920 per GEO. This compares to Q3/22 revenues of $26.0 million from the sale of 15,400 GEOs from our 100% owned operations at a realized price of $1,742 per GEO.

| ● | We reported a gross profit of $3.8 million and cash gross profit(2) of $11.9 million in Q3/23, compared to gross profit of $1.5 million and cash gross profit(2) of $5.8 million in Q3/22 from our 100% owned operations. Higher revenues, driven by a 34% increase in GEOs sold and a 10% increase in realized gold prices drove improvements in gross profit and cash gross profit. Including, our 49% ownership of San José mine, we reported a total cash gross profit(2) of $22.3 million in Q3/23 compared with a total cash gross profit(2) of $13.8 million in Q3/22.

| ● | Net loss for Q3/23 was $18.5 million, or $0.39 per share, compared to Q3/22 of $10.5 million, or $0.21 per share. Compared to our gross profit, our net loss in Q3/23 was impacted by higher year-over-year exploration and advanced project expenditures, including investing $18.5 million in exploration activities at our Los Azules copper project.

| ● | We reported an adjusted net loss(2) of $4.2 million in Q3/23 compared to an adjusted net income(2) of $6.4 million in Q3/22. Adjusted net loss excludes the impact of the results of McEwen Copper and MSC, and we believe this metric best represents the results of our 100% owned precious metal operations. Compared to our cash gross profit of $11.9 million, the adjusted net loss includes $6.6 million in exploration and advanced project expenditures at our Fox Complex, Gold Bar mine and Fenix Project operations, $8.5 million in non-cash depreciation, and $3.7 million in general and administrative expenses.

| ● | Cash costs(2) and AISC per GEO(2) sold for the Fox Complex in Q3/23 were $1,078 and $1,288, respectively. On a year-to-date basis, cash costs and AISC per GEO sold were $1,129 and $1,321, which compares against full-year 2023 guidance of $1,000 and $1,320 respectively. We continue to reiterate cost guidance at our Fox Complex operations.

| ● | Cash costs and AISC per GEO sold for the Gold Bar mine in Q3/23 were $1,529 and $2,160, respectively. On a year-to-date basis, cash costs and AISC per GEO sold were $1,743 and $2,203, which compares against full-year 2023 guidance of $1,400 and $1,680, respectively. Additional crews and the completion of our heap leach expansion in Q3/23 is expected to result in increased GEO production in Q4/23, allowing the Gold Bar Mine to quickly realize recoveries on its stockpiled material from the Pick pit during the last quarter. The increases in GEO production are expected to allow Gold Bar to improve unitary costs significantly in the fourth quarter, however we expect full-year costs to be approximately 10% to 15% higher than full-year guidance.

| ● | Cash costs and AISC per GEO sold for MSC in Q3/23 were $1,445 and $1,953, respectively. On a year-to-date basis, cash costs and AISC per GEO sold were $1,505 and $1,971, compared to full year 2023 guidance of $1,250 and $1,550, respectively. Although MSC’s revised mine plan targets were achieved in Q3/23, we expect costs to remain approximately 15% above guidance due to additional capital development costs required under the new mine plan.

​

Exploration and Mineral Resources and Reserves

​

| ● | We invested $18.5 million in our Los Azules copper project in Argentina during Q3/23 primarily to build a winter camp and maintain our road access, in order to allow full year exploration activity. We also initiated engineering and other studies while preparing for our 2023-2024 drilling campaign, which began in October 2023.

| ● | We also incurred $4.7 million in exploration expenses at our other operations, primarily to advance our Stock West project at the Fox Complex, and de-risking our mine plan at the Gold Bar mine through additional drilling in our Pick pit.

CONSOLIDATED PERFORMANCE

​

During Q3/23, we reported cash gross profit of $11.9 million, which represents an increase of $6.1 million from $5.8 million cash gross profit in Q3/22. The increase in cash gross profit is attributed to an increase in revenue of $12.4 million at our Fox Complex and Gold Bar mine operations, and partially offset by an increase in production costs of $6.8 million. See “Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures” for a reconciliation to gross (loss) profit, which we consider to be the nearest GAAP measure.

​

During Q3/23, we reported a net loss of $18.5 million (or $0.39 per share) compared to $10.5 million (or $0.21 per share) in Q3/22. Our Q3/23 gross profit from our operations of $3.8 million from our operations was offset by $25.1 million of advanced project and exploration expenditures incurred by the Company, the majority of which was in respect of the Los Azules copper project.

​

We reported an adjusted net loss of $4.2 million (or $0.09 per share) in Q3/23 compared to an adjusted net income of $6.4 million (or $0.13 per share) in Q3/22. Our adjusted net loss excludes the impact of McEwen Copper and MSC’s results on our net loss. We believe this metric best represents the results of our 100% owned precious metal operations. For Q3/23, our adjusted net loss of $4.2 million includes $6.6 million of exploration and advanced project expenditures primarily at our Fox Complex, Gold Bar mine and Fenix Project operations, $8.5 million in non-cash depreciation, and $3.7 million in general and administrative expenses.

​

Production from our 100% owned mines of 20,700 GEOs in Q3/23 increased by 4,300 GEOs as compared to 16,400 GEOs produced in Q3/22. At our Fox Complex operations, production increased by 2,200 GEOs in Q3/23 as compared to Q3/22 due to slightly higher mill throughput grades, while at Gold Bar our production increased by 2,300 GEOs as a result of higher average head grades and processed tonnes.

​

Our attributable share of the San José mine production was 17,798 GEOs in Q3/23, which was 8% lower than 19,300 GEOs produced in Q3/22. This decrease was primarily driven by lower average gold and silver head grades year over year.

​

CONSOLIDATED OPERATIONS REVIEW

​

Revenue from gold and silver sales: During Q3/23, revenue from gold and silver sales from 100% owned operations increased to $38.4 million, compared with $26.0 million during Q3/22. This 48% increase was driven by year-over-year production improvements at both of our 100% owned operations totaling 5,300 GEOs sold as well as an increase in average realized gold prices. Our average realized price in Q3/23 was $1,920 per GEO, compared with $1,742 per GEO in Q3/22.

​

Production costs applicable to sales: During Q3/23, production costs applicable to sales increased to $26.5 million, compared with $20.2 million during Q3/22. This 31% increase was primarily driven by the increase in throughput and correspondingly, an increase in GEO sold.

​

Advanced project costs: Of $20.4 million in advanced project costs incurred during Q3/23, $18.5 million was spent to build a winter camp and maintain our road access, in order to allow full year exploration activity. We also initiated engineering and other studies while preparing for our 2023-2023 drilling campaign, which began in October 2023. The remaining $1.9 million was related to the further advancement of our Fenix Project in Mexico.

​

Exploration costs: Exploration costs of $4.7 million during Q3/23 were slightly higher compared to Q3/22 costs of $3.9 million. Exploration expenditures of $2.9 million were incurred to advance our Stock West project at the Fox Complex. At our Gold Bar mine, we incurred $1.8 million of exploration costs primarily focused on defining the boundaries of our oxide pit limit.

​

Loss from investment in MSC: During Q3/23 we recorded a loss of $2.7 million from our investments in MSC, compared with income of $0.8 million during Q3/22. This decrease was a result of year-over-year declines in silver and gold average head grades, impacting revenue, as well as higher depreciation and depletion. Details of MSC’s operating results are presented in the “Operations Review” section of this MDA and Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

​

Table of Contents

Interest and other finance income, net: Net interest and other finance income of $10.3 million during Q3/23 increased by $12.1 million compared to an expense of $1.8 million during Q3/22. This change was driven by an increase in the Company’s average cash balance held in money market funds following the McEwen Copper financing in Q1/23, and together with our investments in equity securities in Argentina, served to mitigate impacts of foreign currency devaluation.

​

Other expense of $10.1 million in Q3/23 decreased from income of $6.3 in Q3/22 primarily as a result of devaluation of cash holdings denominated in ARS against USD. This is discussed further in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. As described above, the Company uses money market funds and equity instruments to mitigate the impact of foreign currency devaluation in Argentina.

​

Income and mining tax recovery of $0.2 million in Q3/23 decreased compared to $0.5 million in Q3/22. The decrease in the tax recovery for Q3/23 was due to the income tax expense at Fox Complex that partially offset the flow-through share premium amortization.

​

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

​

Our cash and cash equivalents balance increased by $9.3 million during Q3/23, from $39.8 million as at December 31, 2022 to $49.1 million as at September 30, 2023. Of this balance, a total of $47.5 million is allocated for advancing the Los Azules copper project (December 31, 2022 – $38.1 million). Our reported cash balance excludes $39.7 million held in liquid securities in Argentina to mitigate inflation and devaluation risks of the Argentine peso.

​

Operating cash outflows of $56.0 during Q3/23 consisted of the net loss of $108.0 million, adjusted for $41.2 million in foreign exchange losses on cash and cash equivalents, $24.3 million in depreciation and amortization, $7.0 million for losses from our investment in MSC and $5.8 million in unrealized net gains on investments. Change in non-cash working capital of $12.8 million was driven by a $10.1 million reclass from the short-term portion of environmental liabilities to long-term due to the change in timing of reclamation works at Fenix Project in Mexico.

​

Cash used in investing activities of $51.9 million during Q3/23 consisted primarily of the investments of $33.9 million in liquid equity securities purchased through the Bolsa de Comercia de Buenos Aires (“BCBA”) stock exchange in Argentina to mitigate inflation and devaluation exposure. The remaining amounts were incurred primarily in respect of our heap leach expansion at the Gold Bar Mine and capital development at the Fox Complex.

​

Cash provided by financing activities of $158.9 million during Q3/23 was due to the receipt of $185.4 million from our McEwen Copper financing and partially offset by the repayment of $25.0 million under the ARCA. Further details are provided in Note 10 and Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

​

Working capital as at September 30, 2023 was $72.3 million, and increased by $74.8 million from negative $2.5 million as at December 31, 2022. The change is primarily attributable to the increase in our cash and cash equivalents as described above.

The Company believes that it has sufficient liquidity along with funds generated from ongoing operations to fund anticipated cash requirements for operations, capital expenditures and working capital purposes for the next 12 months.

​

Q3/23 compared to Q3/22

The Gold Bar mine produced 9,509 GEOs in Q3/23, 32% higher than the 7,200 GEOs produced in Q3/22. This increase is a result of the improved mining rates achieved by our new mine contractor and the resulting improvement in ore available for stacking on the leach pad.

​

Revenue from gold and silver sales was $18.0 million during Q3/23 and increased from $12.6 million during Q3/22 as a result of an increase in the average realized gold price from $1,742 per ounce in Q3/22 to $1,920 per ounce in Q3/23 together with an increase in GEOs sold. Sales of 9,420 GEOs during Q3/23 were 31% higher compared with 7,200 GEOs sold during Q3/22, which is a direct result of the production increase discussed above.

​

Production costs applicable to sales of $14.4 million during Q3/23 increased by $2.0 million from $12.4 million during Q3/22. A 36% increase in throughput, driving higher production costs, was offset by productivity improvements in mining and processing.

​

Cash cost and AISC per GEO sold in Q3/23 were $1,529 and $2,160, respectively, and $1,712 and $2,049 in Q3/22, respectively. The decrease in cash costs per GEO sold was the direct result of the higher GEOs sold, partly offset by the increase in production costs discussed above. The year-over-year increase in AISC per GEO sold was driven by the capital expenditures associated with the heap leach pad expansion. As of October 2023, the heap leach expansion was substantially complete, with final permit approval allowing the application of solution to the expanded sections of the pad expected to be in place in November 2023.

Exploration Activities

During Q3/23, a reverse circulation drilling campaign was started focused on the Pot Canyon area and the Wall fault, with a total of 9,330 feet (2,850 meters) drilled over 16 holes. At Pot Canyon, the holes were drilled on an untested area of the property; the holes intersected the Bartine unit at depth, intersecting wide zones of low-grade gold mineralization. The Wall fault, which is believed to be a primary feeder fault, was drilled to determine the structure at depth. Drilling at Pot Canyon and Wall fault will continue into mid Q4/23.

Canada Segment

​

The Canada segment is comprised of the Fox Complex gold properties, which includes our Froome underground mine; the Grey Fox and Stock West advanced-stage projects; the Stock mill; a number of exploration properties located near the city of Timmins, Ontario, Canada; and the Black Fox mine, currently on care and maintenance.

​

Q3/23 compared to Q3/22

​

The Froome mine produced 11,174 GEOs in Q3/23, which reflects a 24% increase from the 9,000 GEOs produced in Q3/22. This increase was driven by the higher volume of the processed mineralized material – 116 thousand tonnes during Q3/23 compared with 85 thousand tonnes during Q3/22, partially offset by a 13% decrease in average gold grade from 3.68 g/t in Q3/22 to 3.19 g/t in Q3/23.

27

Table of Contents

Revenue from gold sales of $20.3 million increased during Q3/23 by $7.2 million compared to $13.1 million during Q3/22. This increase was driven by a 42% increase in GEOs sold and higher average realized price, which increased from $1,742 per GEO in Q3/22 to $1,920 per GEO in Q3/23, excluding streaming.

​

Production costs applicable to sales were $12.1 million during Q3/23, which increased by $5.9 million compared to $6.2 million during Q3/22. The year-over-year increase was driven by increased processing costs from improved and consistent mill throughput achieved through the use of contract crushing crew alternating with our mill crushing circuit as needed to maintain a consistent product for mill feed. An improved crushing process has resulted in mill throughput approximately 10% above planned levels for the quarter.

​

Cash cost and AISC per GEO sold were $1,078 and $1,288 in Q3/23, respectively, and $774 and $1,308 in Q3/22, respectively. The increase in cash costs year-over-year was due to a larger amount of operational development costs compared to Q3/22 and the increase in contractor crushing costs, partially offset by increased gold sales. The improvement in AISC per GEO sold year-over-year was due to lower planned sustaining capital expenditures and higher GEO sales.

​

Exploration Activities

​

During Q3/23, we incurred a total of $2.9 million in exploration expenses to advance our Stock West and Stock Main advanced project. At Stock West, 18,500 feet (5,640) meters of drilling across 12 holes were completed. The mineralogical study initiated in Q2/23 to provide insights into planning Stock West production in respect of grade control and mill recovery is expected to be completed in late Q4/23. At Stock Main, we drilled 7,330 feet (2,234 meters) across 12 holes for exploration, and additional 2,990 feet (911 meters) for a crown pillar study. The crown pillar study will be used to support the design of the decline, and other underground development required to access the Stock West deposit. Pending management and regulatory approval, we expect work on the decline to access Stock West is expected to begin in early 2024.

​

We commenced exploration drilling at Grey Fox towards the end of Q3/23, where 22,890 feet (6,977 meters) of drilling across 16 holes were completed.

​

Mexico Segment

​

The Mexico segment includes the El Gallo mine and the related advanced-stage Fenix Project, both located in Sinaloa state.

​

Advanced-Stage Properties – Fenix Project

​

We announced on December 31, 2020, the results of a feasibility study for the development of our 100%-owned Fenix Project, which includes existing heap leach material at the El Gallo mine and the El Gallo Silver deposit.

Key environmental permits for Phase 1 were received in 2019, including the approval for an in-pit tailings storage facility and process plant construction.

​

An agreement to purchase a second-hand gold processing plant and associated equipment was executed in September 2022 for a purchase price of $2.8 million. This package includes substantially all the major components required for Phase 1 of the anticipated Fenix Project as well as surplus items that can be sold or used at our other operations. This equipment purchase materially reduces the Phase 1 capital investment required which, for the process plant, was $25.3 million out of the $41.6 million total estimate in our Fenix Project feasibility study. The final payment for the gold processing plant of $0.7 million will be made in Q4/23. During Q3/23, we completed the sonic drilling program on the heap leach pad aimed at defining the mine plan for the first phase of the Fenix Project, with a total of 8.570 feet (2,612 meters) drilled across 98 holes. We have engaged a third-party contractor to finalize a processing flowsheet and start up plan for the Fenix Project, with the final results of the study and decision to proceed with the project expected to be made in Q4/23.

​

Multiple strategic alternatives continue to be evaluated for the Fenix Project.

​

The analysis below compares the operating and financial results of MSC on a 100% basis.

​

Q3/23 compared to Q3/22

​

GEOs produced decreased by 8% to 36,322 in Q3/23 from 39,400 in Q3/22 as a result of a 34% decrease in average silver head grades processed, partially offset by a 5% increase in average gold head grades processed. MSC’s production was 7% lower than revised mine plan targets due to lower than planned gold and silver head grades in Q3/23.

​

Revenue from gold and silver sales decreased by 1% in Q3/23 to $64.5 million from $65.3 million in Q3/22. This decrease was due to a 25% lower GEOs sold during Q3/23 but was largely offset by a 31% higher realized gold price per ounce and an 44% higher realized silver price per ounce.

​

29

Table of Contents

Production costs applicable to sales were $43.4 million during Q3/23, which decreased by $5.5 million compared to $48.9 million during Q3/22, primarily driven by lower volume of the mineralized material mined and higher inventory balance as of September 30, 2023.

​

Cash costs and AISC per GEO sold were $1,445 and $1,953 in Q3/23, respectively, and $1,223 and $1,562 in Q3/22, respectively. The increase in unit costs was driven by lower head grades processed, resulting in fewer ounces sold relative to production costs.

​

Investment in MSC

​

Our 49% attributable share of operations from our investment in MSC in Q3/23 resulted in a loss of $2.7 million, compared to an income of $0.8 million in Q3/22.

​

McEwen Copper Inc.

​

We own a 51.9% interest in McEwen Copper Inc., which owns a 100% interest in the Los Azules copper project in San Juan, Argentina, and the Elder Creek exploration project in Nevada, USA.

​

On February 23, 2023, we closed an ARS 30 billion investment by FCA Argentina S.A., a subsidiary of Stellantis N.V. (“Stellantis”) to acquire shares of McEwen Copper in a two-part transaction. The transaction consisted of a private placement of 2,850,000 common shares of McEwen Copper, and the purchase of 1,250,000 common shares indirectly owned by McEwen Mining in a secondary sale. Additionally, on March 15, 2023, we closed a $30 million investment by Nuton LLC, a Rio Tinto Venture (“Nuton”) and existing McEwen Copper shareholder to acquire shares of McEwen Copper in a two-part transaction. The transaction consisted of a private placement of 350,000 common shares of McEwen Copper, and the purchase of 1,250,000 common shares indirectly owned by McEwen Mining in a secondary sale. Proceeds of these transactions will be used to advance development of the Los Azules copper project and for general corporate purposes at McEwen Copper and McEwen Mining, including the repayment of debt at McEwen Mining.

​

Subsequent to September 30, 2023, we completed additional financings with Stellantis and Nuton. Stellantis invested an additional ARS $42 billion in Argentina to acquire 1,900,000 common shares of McEwen Copper, while Nuton invested an additional $10 million to acquire shares in McEwen Copper in a two-part transaction consisting of a private placement of 152,615 McEwen Copper common shares and the purchase of 232,000 common shares owned by McEwen Mining in a secondary sale. Currently, McEwen Mining owns 47.7% of McEwen Copper while Stellantis and Nuton own 19.4% and 14.5%, respectively.

​

Los Azules, San Juan, Argentina

​

McEwen Copper spent $18.5 million dollars in Q3/23 on the activities below:

​

Drilling Program

​

During Q3/23 we completed planning activities for our next phase of drilling which began in October 2023. A total of 157,000 feet (48,000 meters) have been planned for the 2023-2024 season. This phase will continue to increase geologic confidence through drilling required to develop a measured mineral resource estimate on the material currently planned to be mined in the first five years of operation, covering the payback period and beyond. We also aim to further upgrade mineral resources currently categorized as inferred to indicated.

​

Construction of the new Calingasta core storage warehouse is underway as part of the first phase of our construction plan totaling $1.3 million. We also plan to construct living quarters and a vehicle maintenance shop in Calingasta during this phase.

Exploration Road

​

The Los Azules copper project is currently accessed by 120 km of gravel road with eight river crossings and two mountain passes (both above 4,100 m elevation), described as the Exploration Road. The existing Exploration Road was upgraded during the 2022/2023 exploration season to allow for access by larger vehicle traffic and safer transit. The road will continue to be regularly maintained to provide seasonal secondary site access and support the incoming high voltage power line routing.

​

Site Water Permit Received

​

During October 2023, Argentinean’s water resource department, “Departmento de Hidráulica”, approved temporary water use permits for road maintenance, irrigation, drilling work and domestic use. These water permits will allow us to mobilize drill crews, provide living conditions for our exploration camp, and implement dust controls along the roads and drill platforms.

​

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

​

We have included in this report certain non-GAAP financial performance measures as detailed below. In the gold mining industry, these are common performance measures but do not have any standardized meaning and are considered non-GAAP measures. We use these measures in evaluating our business and believe that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, certain investors use such non-GAAP measures to evaluate our performance and ability to generate cash flow. Accordingly, they are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations associated with the use of such non-GAAP measures. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using the non-GAAP measures supplementally. We do not provide a reconciliation of

31

Table of Contents

forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict items contained in the GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts.

The non-GAAP measures are presented for our wholly owned mines and the San José mine. The GAAP information used for the reconciliation to the non-GAAP measures for the San José mine may be found in Note 9, Investment in Minera Santa Cruz S.A. (“MSC”) – San José Mine. The amounts in the tables labeled “49% basis” were derived by applying to each financial statement line item the ownership percentage interest used to arrive at our share of net income or loss during the period when applying the equity method of accounting. We do not control the interest in or operations of MSC and the presentations of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses of MSC do not represent our legal claim to such items. The amount of cash we receive is based upon specific provisions of the Option and Joint Venture Agreement (“OJVA”) and varies depending on factors including the profitability of the operations.

The presentation of these measures, including those for MSC, has limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these limitations include:

​

| ● | The amounts shown on MSC’s individual line items do not represent our legal claim to its assets and liabilities, or the revenues and expenses; and

​

| ● | Other companies in our industry may calculate their cash gross profit, cash costs, cash cost per ounce, all-in sustaining costs, all-in sustaining cost per ounce, average realized price per ounce, and liquid assets differently than we do, limiting the usefulness as a comparative measure.

​

Adjusted Net Income or Loss and Adjusted Net Income or Loss Per Share

Adjusted net income or loss is a non-GAAP financial measure and does not have any standardized meaning. We use adjusted net income to evaluate our operating performance and ability to generate cash flow from our wholly owned operations in production; we disclose this metric as we believe this measure provides valuable assistance to investors and analysts in evaluating our ability to finance our precious metal operations and capital activities separately from our copper operations. The most directly comparable measure prepared in accordance with GAAP is net loss. Adjusted net income is calculated by adding back McEwen Copper and MSC’s income or loss impacts to our consolidated net income or loss.

Cash Costs and All-In Sustaining Costs

​

The terms cash costs, cash cost per ounce, all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”), and all-in sustaining cost per ounce used in this report are non-GAAP financial measures. We report these measures to provide additional information regarding operational efficiencies on an individual mine basis, and believe these measures used by the mining industry provide investors and analysts with useful information about our underlying costs of operations.

Cash costs consist of mining, processing, on-site general and administrative expenses, community and permitting costs related to current operations, royalty costs, refining and treatment charges (for both doré and concentrate products), sales costs, export taxes and operational stripping costs, but exclude depreciation and amortization (non-cash items). The sum of these costs is divided by the corresponding gold equivalent ounces sold to determine a per ounce amount.

All-in sustaining costs consist of cash costs (as described above), plus accretion of retirement obligations and amortization of the asset retirement costs related to operating sites, environmental rehabilitation costs for mines with no reserves, sustaining exploration and development costs, sustaining capital expenditures and sustaining lease payments. Our all-in sustaining costs exclude the allocation of corporate general and administrative costs. The following is additional information regarding our all-in sustaining costs:

​

| ● | Sustaining operating costs represent expenditures incurred at current operations that are considered necessary to maintain current annual production at the mine site and include mine development costs and ongoing replacement of mine equipment and other capital facilities. Sustaining capital costs do not include the costs of expanding the project that would result in improved productivity of the existing asset, increased existing capacity or extended useful life.

​

| ● | Sustaining exploration and development costs include expenditures incurred to sustain current operations and to replace reserves and/or resources extracted as part of the ongoing production. Exploration activity performed near-mine (brownfield) or new exploration projects (greenfield) are classified as non-sustaining.

​

The sum of all-in sustaining costs is divided by the corresponding gold equivalent ounces sold to determine a per ounce amount.

​

Costs excluded from cash costs and all-in sustaining costs, in addition to depreciation and depletion, are income and mining tax expense, all corporate financing charges, costs related to business combinations, asset acquisitions and asset disposals, impairment charges and any items that are deducted for the purpose of normalizing items.

​

Average realized price

​

The term average realized price per ounce used in this report is also a non-GAAP financial measure. We prepare this measure to evaluate our performance against the market (London P.M. Fix). The average realized price for our 100% owned properties is calculated as gross sales of gold and silver, less streaming revenue, divided by the number of net ounces sold in the period, less ounces sold under the streaming agreement.

​

The following table reconciles the average realized prices to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, revenue from gold and silver sales. Ounces of gold and silver sold for the San José mine are provided to us by MSC.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

​

Our exposure to market risks includes, but is not limited to, the following risks: changes in foreign currency exchange rates, equity price risks, commodity price fluctuations, credit risk, interest rate risk and inflationary risk. We do not use derivative financial instruments as part of an overall strategy to manage market risk.

​

Further, our participation in the joint venture with Hochschild for the 49% interest held at MSC creates additional risks because, among other things, we do not exercise decision-making power over the day-to-day activities at MSC; however, implications from our partner’s decisions may result in us having to provide additional funding to MSC or result in a decrease in our percentage of ownership.

​

Foreign Currency Risk

​

In general, the devaluation of non-U.S. dollar currencies with respect to the U.S. dollar has a positive effect on our costs and liabilities which are incurred outside the U.S. while it has a negative effect on our non-U.S. dollar denominated assets. Although we transact most of our business in U.S. dollars, some expenses, labor, operating supplies and property and equipment are denominated in Canadian dollars, Mexican pesos or Argentine pesos.

​

Since 2008, the Argentine peso has been steadily devaluing against the U.S. dollar by 10% to 88% on an annual basis. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Argentine peso devalued 36% compared to a devaluation of 13% in the same period of 2022.

​

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Mexican peso depreciated 2% against the U.S dollar compared to a 1% depreciation in the same period of 2022.

​

The Canadian dollar experienced a 2% depreciation against the U.S. dollar for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a 2% depreciation in the comparable period of 2022.

​

The value of cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies also fluctuates with changes in currency exchange rates. Appreciation of non-U.S. dollar currencies results in a foreign currency gain on such investments and a depreciation in non-U.S. dollar currencies results in a loss. We hold portions of our cash reserves in non-U.S. dollar currencies.

​

Our Canadian dollar and Mexican peso cash balance was $0.5 million (C$0.7 million) and $0.2 million (MXN2.9 million), respectively, at September 30, 2023. The effect that a 1% change in these respective currencies would result in gains/losses that are immaterial for disclosure. We have not utilized material market risk-sensitive instruments to manage our exposure to the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso exchange rates but may do so in the future. For the period ending September 30, 2023, our Argentine peso holdings were $41.3 million (ARS 13.4 billion). A 1% change in the value of the Argentine peso relative to the U.S. dollar would impact our results of operations by $0.4 million. We are using market risk-sensitive investments to manage our exposure to the Argentine peso relative to the U.S. dollar. During 9M/23, we earned interest of $42.4 million on our Argentine peso cash holdings against a foreign exchange loss of $59.0 million related to foreign exchange devaluation.

​

Further, we are also subject to foreign currency risk on the fluctuation of the Mexican peso on our VAT receivable balance. As of September 30, 2023, our VAT receivable balance was 17.0 million Mexican pesos, equivalent to approximately $1.0 million, for which a 1% change in the Mexican peso would have resulted in a immaterial gain/loss in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

​

Equity Price Risk

​

We have invested and may continue to invest in shares of common stock of other entities in the mining sector. Some of our investments may be highly volatile and lack liquidity caused by lower trading volumes. As a result, we are inherently exposed to fluctuations in the fair value of our investments, which may result in gains or losses upon their valuation.

​

39

Table of Contents

We have in the past sought and will likely in the future seek to acquire additional funding from the sale of common stock or other equity securities. Movements in the price of our common stock have been volatile in the past and may also be volatile in the future. As a result, there is a risk that we may not be able to sell equity securities at an acceptable price to meet future funding requirements.

​

Commodity Price Risk

​

We produce and sell gold and silver. Changes in the market price of gold and silver have and could in the future significantly affect the results of our operations and cash flows. Changes in the price of gold and silver could materially affect our revenues. Based on our revenues from gold and silver sales of $38.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a 10% change in the price of gold and silver would have had an impact of approximately $3.8 million on our revenues. Changes in the price of gold and silver can also affect the provisionally priced sales that we make under agreements with refiners and other purchasers of our products. At September 30, 2023, we had no gold or silver sales subject to final pricing at our 100% owned operations.

​

We have in the past and may in the future hold a portion of our treasury in gold and silver bullion, where the value is recorded at the lower of cost or market. Gold and silver prices may affect the value of any bullion that we hold in treasury.

​

We do not hedge any of our sales and are therefore subject to all changes in commodity prices.

​

Credit Risk

​

We may be exposed to credit loss through our precious metals and doré sales agreements with Canadian financial institutions and refineries if these customers are unable to make payment in accordance with the terms of the agreements. However, based on the history and the financial condition of our counterparties, we do not anticipate that any of our customers will default on their obligations. As of September 30, 2023, we do not believe we have any significant credit exposure associated with precious metals and our doré sales agreements.

​

In Mexico, we are exposed to credit loss regarding our VAT receivable if the Mexican tax authorities are unable or unwilling to make payments in accordance with our monthly filings. Timing of collection on VAT receivables is uncertain as VAT refund procedures require a significant amount of information and follow-up. The risk is mitigated to the extent that the VAT receivable balance can be applied against future income taxes payable. However, at this time we are uncertain when, if ever, our Mexican operations will generate sufficient taxable operating profits to offset this receivable against taxes payable. We face risks on the collection of our VAT receivables, which amount to $1.0 million as at September 30, 2023.

​

In Nevada and Ontario, Canada we are required to provide security to cover our projected reclamation costs. As at September 30, 2023, we have surety bonds of $39.4 million in place to satisfy bonding requirements for this purpose. The bonds have an annual fee of 2.3% of their value and require a deposit of 11% of the amount of the bond. Although we do not believe we have any significant credit exposure associated with these bonds or the deposit, we are exposed to the risk that the surety may default in returning our deposit or that the surety bonds may no longer be accepted by the governmental agencies as satisfactory reclamation coverage, in which case we would be required to replace the surety bonding with cash.

​

Interest rate risk

​

Our outstanding debt consists of various equipment leases and the $40.0 million debt payable under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. As the debt is at fixed rates, we consider our interest rate risk exposure to be insignificant at this time.

​

Inflationary Risk

Argentina has experienced a significant amount of inflation over the last ten years and has been classified as a highly inflationary economy. ASC 830 defines a hyperinflationary economy as one where the cumulative inflation rate exceeds 100% over the last three years preceding the reporting period. As at September 30, 2023, annual inflation in Argentina exceeded 100%. In this scenario, ASC 830 requires companies to change the functional currency of their foreign subsidiaries operating in a highly inflationary economy to match the Company’s reporting currency. In our case, the functional currency of all our Argentine subsidiaries has always been our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. As such, we do not expect the classification of Argentina’s economy as a highly inflationary economy to change our financial reporting methodology.

​

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURE S

​

(a) | We maintain a system of controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of September 30, 2023, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

​

(b) | There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

At McEwen Mining, safety is a core value, and we strive for superior performance. Our health and safety management system, which includes detailed standards and procedures for safe production, addresses topics such as employee training, risk management, workplace inspection, emergency response, accident investigation and program auditing. In addition to strong leadership and involvement from all levels of the organization, these programs and procedures form the cornerstone of safety at McEwen Mining, ensuring that employees are provided a safe and healthy environment and are intended to reduce workplace accidents, incidents and losses, comply with all mining-related regulations and provide support for both regulators and the industry to improve mine safety.

The operation of our Gold Bar mine is subject to regulation by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”). MSHA inspects our Gold Bar mine on a regular basis and may issue citations and orders when it believes a violation has occurred under the Mine Act. While we contract a majority of the mining operations at Gold Bar to an independent contractor, we may be considered an “operator” for purposes of the Mine Act and may be issued notices or citations if MSHA believes that we are responsible for violations.

We are required to report certain mine safety violations or other regulatory matters required by Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 104 of Regulation S-K, and that required information is included in Exhibit 95 filed with this report.

​

Item 5. OTHER INFORMATION

​

Information Required by Item 407(c)(3) of Regulation S-K. During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, none of the Company’s directors or executive officers adopted, modified or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of Company securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement.”
