In this exclusive 3,208 word interview with the Wall Street Transcript, Mr. Cooke details the upside for his company:
“We are in the final stages of commissioning our fourth mine to grow our production year on year. But most exciting is our fifth mine, where we’re in the final stages of permitting and financing. It’s called Terronera, and it will also be a high-grade underground silver-gold mine located in Mexico. At full capacity, it will not only be our largest mine, it will be our lowest-cost mine.”
