Improved prices and terms affected by strong USD
· The effect of a stronger USD and improved smelting terms outweighed the
impact of lower metal prices.
· Several minor disruptions to Smelters’ processes resulted in lower feed
compared to preceding quarter’s very strong production.
· Increased mined production and improved recovery levels at Garpenberg.
· Production levels fell at Aitik due to winter conditions and maintenance
work.
· Appeal regarding diesel tax at Aitik was rejected. Boliden continues to
pursue appeals.
