The latest quarter also benefited from the sale of 1,029 ounces which had been retained in December 2019 for control procedures and released in February 2023. Due to political unrest, mostly in Southern Peru, the company postponed exports from mid-January until February, which explains the monthly sales variance.
The company also reported net income of US$4.5 million or US$0.11 per share for the quarter compared to US$5.1 million or US$0.13 per share for the comparable quarter in 2022, as it was impacted by lower grades, global inflation affecting the unit cost of production and by the overall trend in gold market prices.
