Here's another smart thing HL is doing (IMHO) "The Lucky Friday silver mine continues to struggle with a higher cost of production, due to the depth of the mine and the grade of the ore. The mine has been cut back to about 30% of its previous production levels, and produced 412,211 ounces of silver in the first quarter of 2002 at a total cash cost of $4.83 per ounce. Hecla is maintaining operations at the mine so it could be ramped up quickly to full production with an appropriate increase in the price of silver" Like being in a "hot standby mode" where they could quickly triple production.
