Consolidated Zinc (ASX:CZL) has released an update on January 2019 production at its Plomosas zinc-lead-silver mine in Mexico.

As highlighted in the press release:

• Ore production 3,540 tonnes at 10.3 percent zinc, 3.3 percent lead
• Development of 222m to reach additional high grade ore in February 2019

The company said that ore deliveries to the Santa Eulalia concentrator totalled 3,556 tonnes during the month, with a recovery of 84 percent zinc to zinc concentrate and 85 percent lead to lead concentrate. These recoveries were below the prior month due to planned maintenance at the Santa Eulalia reducing the number of flotation cells available whilst routine relining activities were undertaken. Recoveries are expected to increase during February following the completion of scheduled maintenance at Santa Eulalia.
