- Hecla Mining announced on Thursday that the company produced 11,407,232 silver ounces in 9M 2023, up 8% compared to 9M 2022 .
Hecla said that Casa Berardi performed as expected during the third quarter as the transition to full open pit mining continues with completion expected in mid-2024. At Lucky Friday, the company continues executing the plans to bring the mine back into production with no significant impact expected on 2024 production.
“Silver production continues to grow with almost a million ounces more this year compared to the first three quarters last year,” said Phillips S. Baker, Jr., Hecla’s President and CEO. “Despite less production at the Lucky Friday, Greens Creek’s consistent performance and the ramp-up of Keno Hill should allow us to be within our 2023 guidance of 14.5 to 15.5 million ounces.”
