4. Cannington<\/h3>\n

Tambang Cannington milik South32 di bagian selatan, barat laut Queensland, telah lama menjadi pemimpin tak terbantahkan dalam produksi perak, mencapai titik tertinggi sepanjang masa, yaitu 44 juta ons pada tahun 2005. Sejak saat itu, produksinya anjlok karena kadar peraknya menurun, tidak lagi menduduki posisi no. 1 dalam beberapa tahun terakhir dan turun ke peringkat no. 4 pada tahun 2016. Produksi perak pada tahun 2016 adalah 18,24 juta ons, turun 18% dari tahun 2015.<\/p>\n

6. Penasquito<\/h3>\n

Goldcorp\u2019s Penasquito polymetallic mine is Mexico\u2019s largest gold producer, consisting of two open pits \u2013 Pe\u00f1asco and Chile Colorado \u2013 containing gold, silver, lead & zinc<\/a>.<\/strong> Penasquito is an open-pit mine that employs flotation-and-grinding processing, in two 50,000-tonne\/day sulphide processing lines and a 30,000-tonne\/day high-pressure grinding roll (HPGR) circuit. Due to operational challenges, lower grade and recovery, silver production at Penasquito dropped a whopping 31% in 2016 compared to 2015. As a result, Penasquito lost its status as the biggest silver operation and settled for sixth in 2016.<\/p>\n
