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:
