Boliden sees 300m SEK hit from Covid, production snags in Q1
Miner Boliden said on Tuesday it expects a negative impact from the pandemic and production disruptions of 300-million crowns in the first quarter. The Swedish firm had previously forecast a negative effect of 200-million crowns, due to increased sick leave caused by Covid-19 infections and production disruptions in its Aitik mine in Sweden and the Tara mine in Ireland. Boliden said production capacity at Aitik and Tara was now fully restored.
