Must be the new-mangement decision - after years of publishing it ~10 days after period end. Everything seemed to be rockin' to the end of Q2, so just a policy change? They did publish on July 10th, a month-and-a-half after Mr Baker retired. Funny how the Q2 was republished about 10/11 in different venues as if it were new news.

I would not read too much into the change of plans. Production likely at the same or higher at all mines. Au and Ag prices higher than previous quarter. No material difficulties that needed to be reported were reported. If status quo with the mines, the price of the metals produced will insure a decent lift in the revenues and the bottom line. Just talking through the hole in my head. Gets breezy
