Amerigo Resources Ltd. (TSX:ARG) announced copper production results for Q2 from Minera Valle Central.

As quoted in the press release:

MVC produced 9.55 million pounds of copper and 0.176 million pounds of molybdenum during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Amerigo’s President and CEO, Klaus Zeitler, said:

As previously reported, a slide in one of the Colihues working areas necessitated a change to MVC’s mine plan, and during the second and third quarters Colihues extraction rates and grades will be lower than originally anticipated. April copper production was 36% lower than that of April 2012, as production was limited to 22 days in the month. The revised mine plan began to show positive results in the last two months of the quarter, as June copper production was slightly higher than that for June 2012.
