(a) Capital commitments

There are no restrictions placed on the Company by entering into these leases. Future minimum lease payments under such cancellable leases recognized within results from operating activities at December 31 are:

		2023		2022
Within one year	$	20,726	$	21,016
After one year but not more than five years		9,544		25,574
More than five years		4,144		4,962
	$	34,414	$	51,552

(c) Contingent liabilities

Hudbay is involved in various claims, litigation and other matters arising in the ordinary course and conduct of business. While it is not possible to determine the ultimate outcome of such actions at this time, and inherent uncertainties exist in predicting such outcomes, it is Hudbay's belief that the ultimate resolution of such actions is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. The assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgement and estimates of the outcome of future events. As a result of the assessment, management believes that no significant contingent liabilities exist.
