Coeur Reports Year-End 2015 Mineral Reserves and Resources
Year-end 2015 reserves reflect the continuing theme of quality over quantity of silver and gold ounces and align with our strategy to produce higher-grade, higher-margin ounces to maximize free cash flow across our operations, said Mitchell J. Krebs, Coeurs President and Chief Executive Officer. We removed the lower-grade material that was not economical at these lower metals prices, primarily from La Preciosa, using silver and gold reserve prices over the next two years that are 18% and 10% lower, respectively, than year-end 2014. Companywide gold reserves increased by over 600,000 ounces at 33% higher grade compared with last year, primarily due to the addition of Independencia Este, Wharf, and higher grade material at Kensington.
