Orosur Mining Inc (CVE:OMI LON:OMI) has seen full a full quarter of production at the new San Gregorio West underground site in Uruguay.
Around 60% of the 7,800oz produced in the three months to February came from the SGW operation.
A lower gold price clipped after tax profits to US$363,000 (US$3.07mln) but house broker Cantor noted that cashflow rose in the quarter.
So far this year Orosur has generated US$8.7mln in spare cash while profits year-to-date have risen to US$4.1mln (US$480,000).
The junior expects production of between 35-40koz of gold for the full year at cash costs of between US$800-900/oz, which implies a sharp pick-up in output in the fourth quarter said Cantor.
The broker’s target price remains 44p compared to 14.2p, up 1.6%, today.
