Fortuna Reports Q2 Production Numbers
While Fortuna was hit quite hard due to the CV19 mandated shutdowns in Mexico [Its flagship San Jose mine was suspended for 54 days of the quarter], the company managed to produce a total of 1.274m oz. Ag and 7.1k oz. Au vs. 2.157m oz. Ag and 13.2k oz. Au in the comparable period in 2019. Further, lower grades at San Jose put more downward pressure on output; silver and gold grades of 220 g/t Ag and 1.42 g/t Au vs. 273 g/t Ag and 1.68 g/t Au in Q2 2019 at San Jose.
