Bradford Cooke, CEO of Endeavour Silver, commented:

Our main theme in operations during the second quarter was the El Cubo mine expansion to 2,200 tonnes per day (tpd) in order to continue driving cash and all-in sustaining costs down. I am pleased to say that El Cubo achieved its 2,200 tpd target as planned at the end of Q2, 2015.
I would like to congratulate our El Cubo operations management and workforce for not only delivering a 100% mine expansion in three quarters but also a 50% mine expansion in three months! While such a sharp increase in production will require some time to stabilize, we are confident this mine expansion is sustainable assuming reserves continue to grow.
