Result drivers
Higher silver prices - Co said 135% increase in average realized silver price drove 70% revenue growth, with silver accounting for 77% of Q1 revenue
Lower production output - Co attributed declines in silver, lead, and zinc production to lower head grades, mining dilution, and mid-June suspension for safety upgrades
Higher unit costs and taxes - Co said all-in sustaining cost per ounce of silver rose 36% due to higher government taxes linked to increased revenue and less metals produced and sold
