According to the third quarter interim report on Breakwater's web site they are ceasing operations of the Bourgine mine in August of 2005 (p.9) and the Bouchard-Herbert mine is scheduled to close at the end of the first quarter of 2005 (p.8). Their zinc concentrate production as of the first nine months of 2004 were: Bouchard-Herbert (79,600 tons) and for Bourgine (39,772) for a total of 119,372 tons. Since the total tons produced in the first nine months equals 235,680, isn't this going to greatly affect their production numbers? The Myra Mine only adds 17,404 tons to their production (p.8).
