Q3 comments for Aguas Tenidas operation:
-- Contained copper metal production was in line with budget.
-- The copper ore circuit copper recovery was 86% versus budget of 83%.
-- The zinc recovery rate for the polymetallic circuit was 66% (target of
66%).
-- Ores processed (combined copper and polymetallic) were 5,635 tpd. Ore
throughput in Q3 was impacted by the rolling strikes in August and
September with a loss of 4 days of production. 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.
