Boliden: Lower throughput due to production disruptions in Aitik
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
An unplanned maintenance stop on one out of two primary mills has occurred as a result of damage between the trunnion and feed end. Production in the affected mill line has been stopped and is expected to restart in December.
In addition, seasonal and unfavorable weather conditions in mid-November have resulted in elevated nitrogen dioxide levels in the air in Aitik. This led to restrictions on large parts of Aitik's industrial area and production was limited.
All in all, this means that Aitik's throughput during the fourth quarter of 2023 is now estimated to amount to just over 9 Mton, compared to just over 11 Mton that can be expected under more normal conditions. Guidance for copper and gold content is not affected by the above production disruptions.
