Polymetal Group summed up its activity in 2012. Last year’s gold production amounted to 589 thousand ounces, up 33 percent from the results seen a year earlier, mainly due to the successful performance at the fields of Omolon and Albazino. The production of silver reached 26.5 million ounces, which is also 33 percent higher than the figure reported in 2011. Increased silver production is the result of achieving high extraction rates at the Dukat field, the successful processing of high concentrate ore from the Sopka on Omolon field, and the use of enhanced silver extraction techniques at the Khakanja field.
