PROFILE |
 |
Not all that glitters at Hecla Mining is gold -- some of it is silver. Hecla, which dates to 1891, explores for and mines gold, silver, lead, and zinc. The company produces 146,000 ounces of gold and 8 million ounces of silver annually. It operates mines in the US (Alaska, Idaho, Nevada, and Washington), Mexico, and South America. Hecla has sold its industrial minerals segment (clay, kaolin, and feldspar; about 55% of 1999 sales). The company, which has suffered ten years of losses, will focus on expanding its gold and silver reserves through exploration and acquisitions.
