Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (ASM - Free Report) recently announced that its silver equivalent production was 616,571 ounces in the second quarter of 2024, which marked a 5% increase from the second quarter of 2023. Results were better than expected, primarily driven by the beginning of the processing of La Preciosa surface stockpile material through its mill, which yielded excellent recovery rates, particularly for silver.
Coming to the second-quarter’s metal-wise detailed figures, silver production climbed 26% year over year to 292,946 ounces while gold production remained flat at 1,514 ounces. Copper production declined 10% from year-ago quarter to 1.3 million pounds. Mill throughput increased 10% to 140,934 tons.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate of the company’s second-quarter revenues is pegged at $14.6 million, indicating a year-over-year increase of 58.3%, thereby reflecting higher silver production and increased gold and silver prices. The estimate for quarterly earnings is pegged at 1 cent per share. ASM reported break-even earnings in the second quarter of 2023.
