Silvercorp Metals (TSX: SVM) (NYSE American: SVM) announced a temporary slowdown at its Ying and GC mining operations as it implements new nationwide mine safety requirements introduced by Chinese regulators following a fatal coal mine accident in May. The company expects production to be reduced by 10% to 15% during the current quarter and by 40% to 50% at the Ying Mining District and about 50% at the GC mine during the July-September quarter while required upgrades are completed and approved.

Silvercorp said it has engaged five certified vendors to install the required “Six Major Safety Systems” at non-compliant mining levels at an estimated cost of approximately $5.5 million, with completion expected in about 50 days. The company also plans to spend an additional $6 million on facility improvements and equipment upgrades, including replacing electrical cables with halogen-free flame-retardant cables, while resuming production in phases as individual mining levels receive regulatory approval.
