“Early impressions are that President Sheinbaum is principled, capable and willing to listen and enter into dialogue.”

Jody Kuzenko, President and CEO, Torex Gold Resources

“Fears that Claudia Sheinbaum’s government will simply continue AMLO’s agenda have not materialized. Rather, the political discourse around resource extraction appears to be guided by common sense and an understanding of the importance of mining to Mexico’s economy.”

“I believe the country’s new president, Claudia Sheinbaum, will start separating herself from the past and make her own name once she is better settled.”

David Wolfin, CEO, Avino Silver & Gold

“Former President AMLO’s talks of banning open pit mining are no longer a part of the rhetoric under President Sheinbaum’s administration, who has made it clear that it would like to see Mexico participate in the decarbonization of energy systems. Silver, as a key component of photovoltaics, is key to that goal.”

Eric Zaunscherb, CEO, GR Silver

“A key part of her Mexico 2030 Vision is elevating the country into the world’s top 10 economies, a goal that requires foreign investment; this marks a stark contrast to her predecessor’s more nationalistic policies. Her cabinet appointments also suggest a more pro-business stance. We anticipate a turnaround in Mexico’s mining sector, including potential permit issuances.”

Glenn Jessome, President and CEO, Silver Tiger Metals

“President Claudia Sheinbaum has been under pressure from both the US and Canadian governments… We are optimistic about the opening up of Mexico’s mining sector, but we must be patient, as the new government has bigger fish to fry now with the tariff situation.”
