RE:RE:Shamelessly copied from HL @ Yahoo NetJet 4 Phil? LOL Unlike you,I am a HL shareholder and most of us know what happened to create negative earnings last year.
The Lucky Friday shaft fire and subsequent reconstruction hit Hecla's production / earnings/ profits /bottom line for over nine months so the negative news hurt the share price last year. Lucky Friday is back to full production and Keno is ever closer to announcing full production :
Hecla announces 2024 first quarter production
04/08/2024 43% increase in silver production over Q4 2023
“The 43% increase in silver production reflects the consistent, strong performance from Greens Creek, Lucky Friday’s reaching full production in March and Keno Hill continuing its ramp-up," said Phillips S. Baker, Jr., President and CEO. "Casa Berardi continues to execute on its plan as it transitions to a fully surface operation."
Lucky Friday
The Lucky Friday mine produced 1.1 million ounces of silver as the mine completed ramp-up to full production in March. Mill throughput was 948 tpd during the quarter. The Company continues to work with the property insurer and has collected $17.4 million of insurance proceeds during the quarter and expects to receive the remaining proceeds during the year.
