Investment Update
Polymetal International PLC ("Polymetal")
On 24 July 2019, Polymetal announced that it had produced 756,000 gold equivalent ounces in the first half of 2019 up 22% on the first half of 2018. This was largely due to the ramp of the Kyzyl mine which produced at full capacity of 81,000 ounces of gold in the second quarter of 2019.
Polymetal's production is usually higher in the second half due to seasonal de-stockpiling at the Mayskoye mine and it has reiterated its 2019 full year production guidance of 1.55 million gold equivalent ounces and its all-in sustaining cost guidance of US$800-850 per gold equivalent ounce.
Polymetal's shares have risen 21% on the London Stock Exchange since the beginning of 2019.
