TSX-V-listed Atico Mining Corporation has posted a net loss of $400 000 for the second quarter of this year, compared with income of $100 000 in the second quarter of 2023, on the back of lower sales and a net realised loss on the settlements of its derivative instruments. Sales for the quarter decreased by 11% year-on-year to $10.9-million, primarily as a result of weather conditions, which caused delays at the port of loading.
