Hochschild Production Drops In Q2

Reuters reported a drop in second quarter production of silver equivalent, and that exports had resumed despite an inventory pileup at its San Jose, Argentina mine due to regulatory changes.

As quoted in the report:

The silver and gold miner said attributable production of silver equivalent fell to 5.2 million ounces for the second quarter from 5.6 million ounces a year earlier. Attributable production fell to 10.2 million silver equivalent ounces for the six months ended June 30 from 11.1 million ounces.
