Carbon intensity per tonne is a useful metric, but it can hide total emission increases if production volume jumps. I want to see the absolute emissions numbers to know if they are actually cutting carbon or just getting more efficient while growing.

Exactly. Mining is energy intensive. Did they switch to renewables for their site power or just optimize the haul trucks? The report mentions intensity, but not the energy source mix for the Mexico sites.

First Majestic claims a 49% drop in carbon intensity since 2019. It is a decent trend, but the press release is light on the actual tech used to get there. Most of this looks like standard SASB reporting.

Interesting that they are pushing the Notice and Access model to save paper for the AGM. Small win, but the real carbon battle for them is in the ore processing and heavy machinery.
