- Ores processed (combined copper and polymetallic) was 95% of budget (5,700
tpd).
- The copper ore circuit improved its copper recovery to 86% versus budget
of 83%.
- A better average zinc recovery rate for the polymetallic circuit of 68%
was realized versus budget of 66%.
- In the month of March, as a result of continuing processing plant
improvements primarily due to improved grinding performance and successful
pyrite depression, the copper circuit recovery rate achieved 90% while the
zinc recovery rate in the polymetallic circuit was 73%.
- No lead had been budgeted for Q1, however due to high lead and silver
grades in the polymetallic ores, it was advantageous to produce lead
concentrates for a total of 10,410DMT.
