As quoted in the market news:
Total revenue for the fourth quarter was $181-million, which was $73.3-million lower than the same period in 2011. This decrease was mainly owing to lower sales volumes compared with the fourth quarter of 2011, when the company drew down on unusually high copper concentrate inventory.
