Metro Mining (ASX: MMI) is pleased to provide production and shipping results for the June quarter 2020.

Metro achieved a record shipping month in June with a total of 536,454WMT loaded onto Ocean Going Vessels. Combined with the strong performances in April and May, Metro has exceeded the upper end of June quarter guidance by 150,688WMT (14%). Mining rates remained high but were kept below shipping rates in order to reduce stockpiles to a level easier to manage.

Metro Mining Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Simon Finnis, said: 'We have exceeded expectations throughout the entire June quarter, demonstrating that this level of production is sustainable. I must again congratulate all our operational teams, contract partners and all staff who have performed unbelievably well under the difficult circumstances we're all experiencing as a result of COVID-19.
