Q2 comments for Aguas Tenidas operation:



--  Contained copper metal production was in line with budget. 
--  The copper ore circuit copper recovery was 85% versus budget of 83%. 
--  The zinc recovery rate for the polymetallic circuit was 70% versus
    budget of 66%. 
--  Ores processed (combined copper and polymetallic) were 85% of budget
    (5,125 tpd). 
--  Ore throughput in Q2 was impacted by planned maintenance on the ball
    mill. Despite lower ore throughput the metallurgical performance of the
    poly-metallic circuit was improved as a better grinding of the ore was
    achieved. This resulted in metal production within budgeted parameters.
