The Women in Mining (WIM) Seal is a recognition awarded to mining and metallurgical workplaces that implement concrete actions to promote gender equity, equality and inclusion. In 2025, Terronera received this recognition for the first time, acknowledging the initiatives implemented during the year.

At the beginning of 2025, the site team conducted a self-assessment to evaluate performance across nine areas, including compensation practices, sexual harassment prevention and the availability of adequate infrastructure and equipment for women.

The assessment helped define three priority initiatives:

1. Dedicated changing rooms and restrooms were installed in the mine operations and laboratory areas, inaugurated in November.
2. Gender-specific uniforms and personal protective equipment (PPE) were introduced following a procurement process that prioritized ergonomics, mobility, proper fit and regulatory compliance.
3. Two training sessions led by external specialists were delivered to promote a workplace free from violence and harassment.

These actions aim to help remove barriers and foster a more inclusive culture in the mining sector, supporting greater participation of women across the workforce.
