“Production and shipping tonnages were less than the comparable quarter in 2020. A decision to reduce production and shipping activity was taken in response to adverse ocean freight rates and macro economic conditions. Poor weather conditions also affected production and shipping activity,” Metro Mining said.
Metro Mininf reported sales revenue (gross) of A$31.7 Million and site EBITDA of (A$7.4) Million for the quarter.
“Due to market circumstances and high freight rates forcing selectivity of spot sales the revised sales target for 2021 is 3.3 – 3.5M WMT,” the company said.
