“We have continued to reduce our all-in cash costs both year-over-year and throughout the current year despite a dramatic fall in base metal prices,” said Darren Blasutti, President and CEO of Americas Silver Corporation. “The Galena hoist was not remedied until mid-September, however we were still able to increase tonnage and reduce both cash costs and all-in sustaining costs through disciplined operations and reduced spending.

“The third quarter saw improved production with better grades and an improved cost profile,” stated Brendan Cahill, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are aiming for the lower end of our production targets for the year due to the delay in the implementation of the optimization plan for Platosa.
