Tahoe Resources loss less then forecast but wider than last year

Tahoe Resources Inc posted a quarterly loss on Tuesday that was less then Wall Street expected although it widened from a year earlier, while the gold and silver miner predicted that its production for the year would be at the low end of guidance.

Tahoe's Escobal silver mine in Guatemala, the world's second largest, has been effectively mothballed since last year after officials suspended the miner's license to operate, part of a long-simmering feud with the Xinca indigenous population.
