Hecla also has a very low cost gold mine in Nevada and a generally clean balance sheet (they never did a lot of the goofy stuff CDE did) with low debt and conservatively valued reserves. The one down-side to both HL and CDE would be their potential residual environmental liabilities in Idaho which I've never been able to fully quantify. HL has more fully taken accounting charges to reserve for future liabilities than CDE has, however. FWIW.
