Metro Mining provides production and shipping results for July 2020. The company’s July mining was slightly ahead of budget and in line with performance achieved year to date. Metro Mining produced 501,000 wet metric tonnes (WMT) of bauxite in July, down from 505,000 tonnes in June. The year-to-date production came in at 1.92 million tonnes.
The company’s July bauxite shipments stood at 456,000 WMT. The year-to-date shipments came in at 1.7 million WMT.
Bauxite mined per day was 16,170 WMT. Shipment per day stood at 14,714 WMT in July.
“Shipping was marginally down due to two days lost as a result of a belt replacement on the barge loading facility and some downtime as a result of unusually high swell conditions for this time of year.”
Metro Mining Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Simon Finnis, said: “Operational performance remains solid and I commend the team on site for remaining committed to outstanding performance whilst ensuring safety remains at the forefront during these unprecedented and unsettling times. “
