A recent article by RCKS Talk highlighted Sierra Metals Inc. (TSX:SMT, BVL:SMT).
As quoted in the article:
Sierra Metals Inc. (TSX:SMT, BVL:SMT) announced the discovery of a new high grade silver zone within the Santa Rosa de Lima structure at its Cusi mine in Mexico. Given the significantly higher average grade of today’s results over Cusi’s resource grade, we believe this discovery could materially improve this mine’s economics in the same way the discovery of the Esperanza zone was for Sierra’s Yauricocha mine in Peru. We expect this discovery to add value to the Cusi asset and potentially positively impact the mine’s cash flow in the near term. However, in light of that Cusi only contributed 6% of Sierra’s consolidated Q4 2016 AgEq production, the impact of this discovery on Sierra’s overall cash flow is likely to be limited. However, this discovery may allow Sierra to monetize this asset. We continue to expect that Sierra’s performance in 2017 is going to be underpinned by operational improvements at Yauricocha, which in our view is key to enhancing the company’s value and positioning to bring about the necessary capital structure changes.
