About Coeur
Coeur d′Alene Mines Corporation is the largest U.S.-based primary silver
producer and a growing gold producer. The Company has several core
silver and gold mines generating higher production, sales and cash flow
in continued strong precious metals markets. This growth is derived from
wholly-owned mines that were constructed and began producing between
2008 and 2010: the San Bartolom? silver mine in Bolivia, the Palmarejo
silver-gold mine in Mexico, and the Kensington gold mine in Alaska.
Further production has commenced from a new heap leach pad at Coeur′s
long-time Rochester silver-gold mine in Nevada. The Company also owns
and operates the Martha silver-gold mine in Argentina and owns a
non-operating interest in a silver-base metal mine in Australia. Coeur
conducts ongoing exploration activities near and within its operating
