LSE-bound Taseko reaffirms production guidance, posts third-quarter loss

Canadian base metals miner Taseko Mines, which is heading for a London listing before year-end, has reaffirmed its production guidance for 2019, following an on-target third-quarter performance of 33-million pounds of copper from the Gibraltar mine, in British Columbia.

Grades, mill throughput and recoveries were in line with management expectations, Taseko said on Wednesday, adding that it would achieve its guidance of 130-million pounds of copper.
