The 100% owned Lapa mine in northwestern Quebec achieved commercial production in May 2009. Mining operations at Lapa continued during the fourth quarter of 2017 and into the first quarter of 2018 at a reduced rate with ore being stockpiled for processing in 2018. Production costs per tonne for the full year 2017 increased when compared to the prioryear period primarily due to lower throughput levels. Production costs per ounce for the full year 2017 increased when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to lower production. Minesite costs per tonne for the full year 2017 were essentially the same when compared to the prior-year period. Total cash costs per ounce for the full year 2017 increased when compared to the prior-year period due to lower production. Production was lower for the full year of 2017 when compared to the prior-year period as a result of lower throughput and lower grades as the mine approaches the end of operations.
