| Abstract: |
Base-metals miner Anvil Mining has reported a net loss of $18,8-million for the quarter ended March 2009, compared with a net income of $21,6-million for the first quarter of last year, the company reported on Friday.
Anvil stated that the results were negatively affected by a number of factors, including significantly lower production and sales resulting from the Dikulushi mine, in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), being placed on care-and-maintenance, as well as the cessation of the heavy media separation (HMS) processing at Mutoshi, also in the DRC. |
