“Hecla is on track to grow silver production this year and for each of the next two years while also being the United States’ third largest zinc producer. Zinc, like silver, is a critical mineral in the energy transition and is approaching its all-time high price set 15 years ago.”
“We had a solid start to the year with Q1 gold production of 112,440 ounces, slightly ahead of budget given higher than anticipated processed grades.”
“In 2021, we increased production by 32% and achieved record annual production. In 2022, as expected, we started with lower production once we entered lower grades in EPP and San Andres combined with pit preparation for higher production to be achieved during the second semester of 2022.”
“The year is off to a strong start,” stated Dan Dickson, Chief Executive Officer. “Operationally, Guanacevi continues to outperform production expectations and Bolañitos remains steady. Strategically, we made a significant move in January signing a definitive agreement to acquire the Pitarrilla Project, one of the world’s largest undeveloped silver deposits.”
The Company delivered a strong operating performance in the first quarter of 2022 with all mines on target to achieve annual guidance for silver and gold.
