As quoted in the press release:

Jim O’Rourke said “during the first quarter of 2018, the mill throughput averaged 38,800 tonnes per day. Abnormally high snowfall during the quarter created operating challenges in the pit and resulted in some power supply disruptions. We remain bullish on the outlook for the copper market and with our production on target we are well positioned to benefit from a strong copper price environment.”
