Goldcorp's Chuck Jeannes 'not worried about Eleonore'

摘要

Goldcorp (TSX: G; NYSE: GG) is highlighting the potential at Eleonore in northern Quebec, despite recently lowering the gold mine's 2015 production forecast, partly due to higher-than-expected mining dilution. "Looking forward, I'm not worried about fileonore - it's a great plant, it's a great orebody," Charles Jeannes, the company's president and CEO, said in a Sept. 22 presentation at the Denver Gold Forum. The underground mine reached commercial production on April 1, 2015, after Goldcorp poured first gold last October. The slower-than-antic-ipated start-up came from commissioning issues in the first half of 2015 relating to the tailings filter press and primary crusher feeder. Jeannes said the issues have been resolved.
