SEATTLE (Scrap Monster): Eldorado Gold Corporation reported its financial and operational results for the third quarter of 2023. The Q3 loss narrowed, aided by increased gold production, higher gold prices and reduced cost.

According to company press release, gold production by the company totalled 121,030 ounces in Q3 2023, higher by 2% when compared with the production of 118,791 ounces in the same quarter a year before. The higher production was mainly on account of the enhanced materials handling circuit at Kisladag, productivity initiatives and associated improvements at Olympias. However, the production was partially impacted by slower production at Lamaque due to suspension of shifts on account of wildfires.
