The asset composition of the organization demonstrates a strategic shift toward increased capital intensity and a reduction in liquid reserves over the five-year period ending December 31, 2023. While current assets peaked in 2020, there has been a consistent downward trend in liquidity, coinciding with a steady increase in the proportion of non-current assets.

Liquidity and Current Asset Trends
Current assets as a percentage of total assets peaked at 20.56% in 2020 before declining to 13.53% by 2023, the lowest level in the analyzed period. This decline is primarily driven by cash and cash equivalents, which surged to 13.39% in 2020 and 12.31% in 2021, only to retreat to 5.41% by 2023. This pattern suggests a period of significant liquidity accumulation followed by a phase of capital deployment or debt reduction.
Fixed Asset Concentration
Property, plant and mine development, net, represents the largest component of the balance sheet. After a decline to 58.69% in 2020, this item has grown consistently, reaching 67.67% of total assets by 2023. This upward trajectory indicates an increasing concentration of value in long-term operational infrastructure and mining development.
Non-Current Asset Evolution
Total non-current assets have increased from 84.31% in 2019 to 86.47% in 2023. While goodwill has seen a gradual reduction from 6.69% to 5.41%, the overall growth in non-current assets is sustained by the expansion of fixed assets. Investments have remained relatively stable, fluctuating within a narrow band between 7.46% and 8.52% of total assets.
Operational Asset Stability
Inventories and stockpiles have remained remarkably stable as a percentage of total assets. Inventories fluctuated between 2.29% and 3.00%, while stockpiles and ore on leach pads—combined across current and non-current classifications—consistently represent approximately 5% to 6% of the total asset base, suggesting a consistent operational cycle relative to the total size of the company.

Overall, the balance sheet reflects a transition from a highly liquid position in 2020-2021 to a more asset-heavy structure by 2023, characterized by a higher reliance on long-term mining infrastructure and a leaner cash position.
