Endeavour Silver's (EXK) Q2 Silver Production Rises 10% Y/Y
Read MoreHide Full Article
Endeavour Silver Corporation (EXK - Free Report) produced 2.3 million silver equivalent ounces in the second quarter of 2023, which was 9.5% higher year over year. Consolidated silver production was up 10% year over year to 1,494,000 ounces, owing to increased silver production at the Guanacevi mine.
Overall gold production in the quarter rose 6% year over year to 9,819 ounces, driven by increased throughput at the Guanacevi and Bolanitos mines.
Total production for the six months ended Jun 30, 2023, was 4.7 million silver equivalent ounces. Supported by this performance, the company anticipates 8.6-9.5 million silver equivalent ounces for the year.
At Guanacevi, silver and gold productions were in line with the guidance, owing to higher tons milled and partially offset by lower grades than anticipated. Changes in mine sequencing during the quarter resulted in lower grades. However, the grades are expected to improve in the third quarter of 2023.
Meanwhile, at Bolanitos, solid gold production, higher gold grades and improved throughput were offset by the impacts of lower silver production and silver grades.
Endeavour Silver sold 1,299,672 ounces of silver and 9,883 ounces of gold in the quarter. At the quarter-end, the company held 637,439 ounces of silver and 854 ounces of gold in bullion inventory, and 16,213 ounces of silver and 665 ounces of gold in concentrate inventory.
EXK also announced that its board of directors approved the construction of an underground mine and a mill at Terronera.

Shares of the company have lost 6.2% over the past year against the industry's growth of 4.3%.
