The third quarter is typically the most difficult because it covers a shorter time period due to February being the shortest month of the year and to "Holy Easter Week" celebrations with vacations impacting throughput at the mine, and this year the early arrival of the rainy season caused some short unexpected grid power interruptions; -- Mine operating cash costs increased to US$833/EqOz compared to US$718/EqOz in the previous quarter due mainly to lower production. All- in Sustaining Costs, which includes sustaining capital expenditures, exploration, reclamation, corporate and administrative and share-based compensation cost were US$1,066/EqOz.
