Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation The Companys unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (U.S. GAAP) and applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
regarding interim financial reporting and include the accounts of Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation
and its consolidated subsidiaries (Coeur or the Company). All intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated during consolidation. Certain information and note disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed
or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto contained in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2010. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, included herein, was
derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis
as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Companys financial
position as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the Companys results of operations and cash
flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The results for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2011. All references to June 30, 2011 or to the three or six months ended
June 30, 2011 and 2010 in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements are
unaudited.
On August 9, 2010, the Company closed the sale of its 100% interest in the Cerro Bayo mine.
Consequently, for all of the periods presented, income (loss) from Cerro Bayo has been presented
within discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the Companys consolidated financial statements
in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
amounts reported in their consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Areas
requiring significant management estimates and assumptions include: recoverable ounces from proven
and probable reserves that are the basis of future cash flow estimates and units-of-production
depreciation and amortization calculations; useful lives utilized for depreciation, depletion and
amortization; estimates of future cash flows for long-lived assets; estimates of recoverable gold
and silver ounces in ore on leach pad; amount and timing of reclamation and remediation costs;
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets; assessment of valuation allowance for value added tax
receivables; and other employee benefit liabilities.
Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications of prior year balances have been made to
conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the reported
financial position or results of operations. The most significant reclassifications were to
reclassify the Cerro Bayo statements of operations from historical presentation to income (loss)
from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods
presented.
Correction of an Immaterial Error: In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company
identified an error in the amount of income tax benefit recognized in 2009 and the three month
period ended March 31, 2010. The Company assessed the materiality of this error in accordance with
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 and determined that the error was immaterial to amounts
previously reported in its periodic reports, and the Company intends to correct this error through
subsequent periodic filings. See Note D Correction of an Immaterial Error in the Companys Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited) (Continued)
NOTE 2 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.
Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other
contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the three and
six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, 1,056,901 and 1,419,282 shares of common stock
equivalents related to convertible debt, debt that can be settled in stock, and equity-based awards
have not been included in the diluted per share calculation as the shares would be antidilutive.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, 6,446,214 and 5,815,484, respectively, of common stock
equivalents related to convertible debt and equity based awards have not been included in the diluted
per share calculation, as the Company recorded a net loss for those periods. The effect of
potentially dilutive stock outstanding as of June 30, 2011, and 2010 are as follows (in thousands,
except per share data):

NOTE 3 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the
lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value
hierarchy are described below:
|
Level 1 |
|
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the
measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
|
8
Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
|
Level 2 |
|
Quoted market prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are
observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset
or liability; and |
|
|
Level 3 |
|
Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant
to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market
activity). |
The following table sets forth the Companys financial assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a recurring basis (at least annually) by level within the fair value hierarchy. As
required by accounting guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on
the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement (in thousands):

In August 2010, the Company sold its 100% interest in its subsidiary Compañía Minera Cerro
Bayo Ltd. (Minera Cerro Bayo), which controls the Cerro Bayo mine in southern Chile, to Mandalay
Resources Corporation (Mandalay). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received the
following from Mandalay in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of Minera Cerro Bayo; (i)
$6.0 million in cash; (ii) 17,857,143 common shares of Mandalay; (iii) 125,000 ounces of silver to
be delivered in six equal quarterly installments commencing in the third quarter of 2011, which had
an estimated fair value of $2.3 million; (iv) a 2.0% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR) on production from
Minera Cerro Bayo in excess of a cumulative 50,000 ounces of gold and 5,000,000 ounces of silver,
which had an estimated fair value of $5.4 million; and (v) existing value-added taxes to be
collected from the Chilean government in excess of $3.5 million, which were valued at $3.5 million.
As part of the transaction, Mandalay agreed to pay the next $6.0 million of reclamation costs
associated with Minera Cerro Bayos nearby Furioso property. Any reclamation costs above that
amount will be shared equally by Mandalay and the Company. At the time of the sale, the Company
realized a loss on the sale of approximately $2.1 million, net of income taxes.

Palmarejo: The Palmarejo silver and gold mine is an underground and surface mine
located in the State of Chihuahua in northern Mexico, and its principal silver and gold properties
are collectively
13
Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
referred to as the Palmarejo mine. The Palmarejo mine commenced commercial
production in April 2009.
San Bartolomé Mine: The San Bartolomé mine is a silver mine located near the city of
Potosi, Bolivia. The mineral rights for the San Bartolomé project are held through long-term joint
venture/lease agreements with several local independent mining co-operatives and the Bolivian state
owned mining organization, COMIBOL. The Company commenced commercial production at San Bartolomé
in June 2008.
Kensington: The Kensington mine is an underground gold mine and consists of the
Kensington and adjacent Jualin properties located on the east side of the Lynn Canal about 45 miles
north-northwest of Juneau, Alaska. The Kensington mine commenced commercial production in July
2010.
Rochester Mine: The Company has conducted operations at the Rochester mine, located in
Western Nevada, since September 1986. The mine utilizes the heap-leaching process to extract both
silver and gold from ore mined using open pit methods. Rochesters primary product is silver with
gold produced as a by-product. The Company expects a resumption of active mining at the Rochester
mine in 2011.
Martha Mine: The Martha mine is an underground silver mine located in Argentina.
Coeur acquired a 100% interest in the Martha mine in April 2002. In December 2007, the Company
completed a 240 tonne per day flotation mill, which produces a flotation concentrate.
Mineral Interests
Endeavor Mine: In May 2005, CDE Australia Pty. Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Coeur (CDE Australia) acquired silver production and reserves, up to a maximum 17.7 million
payable ounces, contained at the Endeavor mine in Australia, which is owned and operated by Cobar
Operations Pty. Limited (Cobar), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CBH Resources Ltd. (CBH). In
March 2006, CDE Australia entered into an amended agreement under which it owns all silver
production and reserves up to a total of 20.0 million payable ounces.
CDE Australia began realizing reductions in revenues in the fourth quarter of 2008 as a result
of a silver price sharing provision that was part of the purchase agreement. CDE Australia has
received approximately 3.3 million payable ounces to-date and the current ore reserve contains
approximately 7.9 million payable ounces based on current metallurgical recovery and current
smelter contract terms. It is expected that future expansion to the ore reserve will occur as a
result of the conversion of portions of the propertys existing inventory of mineralized material
and future exploration discoveries. CBH conducts regular exploration to discover new
mineralization and to define reserves from surface and underground drilling platforms.
Non-Producing and Development Properties
The Company has no significant non-producing or development properties as of June 30, 2011, or
December 31, 2010.

NOTE 11 RECLAMATION AND MINE CLOSURE
Reclamation and mine closure costs are based principally on legal and regulatory requirements.
Management estimates costs associated with reclamation of mining properties as well as remediation
costs for inactive properties. The Company uses assumptions about future costs, mineral prices,
mineral processing recovery rates, production levels, capital costs and reclamation costs. Such
assumptions are based on the Companys current mining plan and the best available information for
making such estimates. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions;
however, actual amounts could differ from those based on such estimates and assumptions.

The income tax benefit (provision) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011
varies from the statutory rate primarily because of differences in tax rates for the Companys
foreign operations and changes in valuation allowances for net deferred tax assets, permanent
differences and foreign exchange rate differences. The Company has U.S. net operating loss
carryforwards which expire in 2011 through 2026. Net operating losses in foreign countries have an
indefinite carryforward period, except in Mexico where net operating loss carryforwards are limited
to ten years.
NOTE 13 SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
The Company has an annual incentive plan and a long-term incentive plan. The Companys
shareholders approved the Amended and Restated 2003 Long-Term Incentive Plan of Coeur dAlene Mines
Corporation at the 2010 annual shareholders meeting.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
The compensation expense (benefit) recognized in the Companys consolidated financial
statements for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 for stock based compensation awards
was ($3.4) million and $0.6 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and
2010, the Company recognized stock based compensation of $4.8 million and $2.0 million,
respectively. The stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance
units outstanding under the plan are liability-based awards and are required to be re-measured at the end of each reporting
period with corresponding adjustments to previously recognized and future stock-based compensation
expense. As of June 30, 2011, there was $6.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost (net
of estimated forfeitures) related to unvested stock options, SARs, restricted stock, RSUs,
performance shares and performance units which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average
remaining vesting period of 1.7 years.

The Company provides a noncontributory defined contribution retirement plan for all eligible
U.S. employees. Total contributions, which are based on a percentage of the salary of eligible
employees, were $0.4 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010,

19
Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
to contribute up to 100% of their cash compensation, subject to ERISA limitations. The
Company adopted a Safe Harbor Tiered Match and is required to make matching contributions equal to
100% of the employees contribution up to 3% of the employees compensation plus matching
contributions equal to 50% of the employees contribution up to an additional 2% of the employees
compensation. Total plan expenses recognized in the Companys consolidated financial statements

NOTE 15 DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Palmarejo Gold Production Royalty
On January 21, 2009, the Company entered into the gold production royalty transaction with
Franco-Nevada Corporation described in Note 10, Long-Term Debt and
Capital Lease Obligations,
Palmarejo Gold Production Royalty Obligation. The minimum royalty obligation ends when payments
have been made on a total of 400,000 ounces of gold. As of June 30, 2011, a total of 288,836
ounces of gold remain outstanding under the minimum royalty obligation. The price volatility
associated with the minimum royalty obligation is considered an embedded derivative financial
instrument under U.S. GAAP. The fair value of the embedded derivative at June 30, 2011 and
December 31, 2010 was a liability of $164.9 million and $162.0 million, respectively. The
Franco-Nevada warrants were contingent options to acquire 316,436 common shares of Franco-Nevada
for no additional consideration, once the mine satisfied certain completion tests stipulated in the
agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, mark-to-market adjustments for
this embedded derivative amounted to a loss of $4.0 million and $2.9 million,
respectively. On September 19, 2010, the Company exercised these warrants and received the related
shares, which were sold for net proceeds to the Company of $10.0 million. The Franco-Nevada
warrants were considered a derivative instruments. During the three and six months ended June 30,
2010, mark-to-market adjustments for this embedded derivative and warrants amounted to a loss of
$30.0 million and a gain of $1.0 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2011
and 2010, realized losses on settlement of the liabilities were $9.7 million and $3.7 million,
respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, realized losses on settlement of the liabilities were
$17.2 million and $6.8 million,
respectively. The mark-to-market adjustments and realized losses are included in fair value
adjustments, net in the consolidated statement of operations.
Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts
The Company periodically enters into forward foreign currency contracts to reduce the foreign
exchange risk associated with forecasted Mexican peso (MXP) operating costs at its Palmarejo
mine. At June 30, 2011, the Company had MXP foreign exchange contracts of $32.4 million in U.S.
dollars. These contracts require the Company to exchange U.S. dollars for MXP at a weighted
average exchange rate of 12.08 MXP to each U.S. dollar and had a fair value of $0.3 million at June
30, 2011. The Company recorded mark-to-market gains (losses) of ($0.7) million and $0.3 million
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and $(1.6) million and $(1.2)
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, which is reflected in fair
value adjustments, net. The Company recorded realized gains of $0.9 million and $1.1 million in
Production costs applicable to sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011,
respectively, and $0.5 million and $0.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30,
2010, respectively.
Gold Lease Facility
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no gold leased from Mitsubishi International Corporation
(MIC). At December 31, 2010, the Company had 10,000 ounces of gold leased from MIC, which it
20
Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
delivered to MIC on March 22, 2011. The Company accounted for the gold lease facility as a
derivative instrument, which was recorded in accrued liabilities and other on the balance sheet.
On December 12, 2008, the Company entered into the gold lease facility with MIC. Pursuant to
this facility, the Company may lease amounts of gold from MIC and is obligated to deliver the same
amounts back to MIC and to pay specified lease fees to MIC that are equivalent to interest at
current market rates on the value of the gold leased. Pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated
Collateral Agreement, the Companys obligations under the facility are secured by certain
collateral. The collateral agreement specifies the maximum amount of gold the Company may lease
from MIC, as well as the amount and type of collateral.
Concentrate Sales Contracts
The Company enters into concentrate sales contracts with third-party smelters. The contracts,
in general, provide for a provisional payment based upon provisional assays and quoted metal
prices. The provisionally priced sales contain an embedded derivative that is required to be
separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from
the sale of concentrates at the forward price at the time of sale. The embedded derivative, which
is the final settlement price based on a
future price, does not qualify for hedge accounting. These embedded derivatives are recorded
as derivative assets (in Prepaid expenses and other) or derivative liabilities (in Accrued
liabilities and other) on the balance sheet and are adjusted to fair value through earnings each
period until the date of final settlement. At June 30, 2011, the Company had outstanding
provisionally priced sales of $24.8 million, consisting of 341,058 ounces of silver and 7,471
ounces of gold, which had a fair value of $23.6 million including the embedded derivative. At
December 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding provisionally priced sales of $35.7 million
consisting of 647,711 ounces of silver and 12,758 ounces of gold, which had a fair value of
approximately $37.4 million including the embedded derivative.
Commodity Derivatives
At December 31, 2010, the Company had one outstanding forward gold contract of 10,000 ounces
at a fixed price of $1,380 per ounce, which was settled on March 22, 2011 for a gain of $0.5
million.
As of June 30, 2011, in connection with the Kensington term facility described in Note 10,
Long-Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations, Kensington term facility, the Company had outstanding
call options requiring it to deliver 220,000 ounces of gold at a weighted average strike price of
$1,858.41 per ounce if the market price of gold exceeds the strike price. At June 30, 2011, the
Company had outstanding put options allowing it to sell 220,000 ounces of gold at a weighted
average strike price of $943.09 per ounce if the market price of gold were to fall below the strike
price. The contracts will expire over the next five years. As of June 30, 2011, the fair market
value of these contracts was a net liability of $13.1 million. During the six months ended June
30, 2011, 23,750 ounces of gold call options at a weighted average strike price of $1,737.68 per
ounce expired. The Company recorded unrealized gains of $2.4 million and $1.7 million for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, included in fair value adjustments, net.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company
recorded unrealized losses of $6.1
million and $6.6 million, respectively, included in fair value adjustments, net.
In connection with the sale of the Cerro Bayo mine to Mandalay Resources Corporation, the
Company received 125,000 ounces of silver to be delivered in six equal quarterly installments
commencing in the third quarter of 2011. The Company recognized a mark to market loss of $0.4
million associated with this silver in the three months ended June 30, 2011. The Company
recognized a mark to market gain of $0.5 million associated with this silver in the six months
ended June 30, 2011. The silver had a fair value of $4.3 million at June 30, 2011, and a fair
value of $3.9 million at December 31, 2010.

Credit Risk
The credit risk exposure related to any potential derivative instruments is limited to the
unrealized gains, if any, on outstanding contracts based on current market prices. To reduce
counter-party credit exposure, the Company deals with financial institutions management deems
credit worthy and limits credit exposure to each. The Company does not anticipate non-performance
by any of its counterparties. In addition, to allow for situations where positions may need to be
revised, the Company deals only in markets that management considers highly liquid.
NOTE 16 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Labor Union Contracts
The Company maintains two labor agreements in South America, consisting of a labor agreement
with Associacion Obrera Minera Argentina at the Martha mine in Argentina and with Sindicato de la
Empresa Minera Manquiri at the San Bartolomé mine in Bolivia. The agreement at the Martha mine is
effective from June 12, 2006 to June 30, 2012. The labor agreement at the San Bartolomé mine,
which became effective October 11, 2007, does not have a fixed term. As of June 30, 2011,
approximately 16% of the Companys worldwide labor force was covered by collective bargaining
agreements.
Kensington Production Royalty
On July 7, 1995, Coeur, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Coeur Alaska, Inc., acquired a
50% ownership interest of Echo Bay Exploration Inc. or Echo Bay, which provides the Company with
indirect 100% ownership of the Kensington property. The property is located on the east side of
Lynn Canal between Juneau and Haines, Alaska. Coeur Alaska is obligated to pay Echo Bay a scaled
net smelter return royalty on 1.0 million ounces of future gold production after Coeur Alaska
recoups the $32.5 million purchase price and its construction and development expenditures incurred
after July 7, 1995 in connection with placing the property into commercial production. The royalty
ranges from 1% at gold prices of $400 per ounce to a maximum of 2 1/2% at gold prices above $475
per ounce, with the royalty to be capped at 1.0 million ounces of production.
Rochester Production Royalty
The Company acquired the Rochester property from ASARCO in 1983. The Company is obligated to
pay a net smelter royalty interest when the market price of silver equals or exceeds $22.87 per
ounce up to a maximum rate of 5% to ASARCO, the prior owner. Royalty expense was $0.6 million and
nil for the three months ended June 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Royalty expense was $0.9
million and nil for the six months ended June 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
NOTE 17 SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS
The Company markets its refined metal and doré to bullion trading houses, market makers and
members of the London Bullion Market Association, industrial companies and financial institutions.
The refined metals are sold to end users for use in electronic circuitry, jewelry, silverware, and
the pharmaceutical and technology industries. The Company has six trading counterparties (Mitsui,
Mitsubishi, Standard Bank, Auramet, Valcambi and INTL Commodities). Sales of metals to these
counterparties for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, amounted to 80% and 84% of total
metal sales, respectively. Generally, the loss of a single bullion trading counterparty would not
adversely affect the Company due to the liquidity of the markets and the availability of
alternative trading counterparties.
The Company refines and markets its precious metals, doré and concentrates using a
geographically diverse group of third party smelters and refiners, including clients located in
Mexico, Switzerland, Australia, China, Germany, and the United States (Peñoles, Valcambi, Nyrstar,
Aurubis,
24
Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
China National Gold and Johnson Matthey). Sales of silver concentrates to third-party smelters
amounted to approximately 20% and 16% of total metal sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011,
and 2010, respectively. The loss of any one smelting and refining client may have a material
adverse effect on the Companys financial condition and results of operations if alternative
smelters and refineries are not available. The Company believes there is sufficient global capacity
available to make up for the loss of any one smelter.
NOTE 18 SEGMENT REPORTING
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial
information is available that are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or
decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The
Companys chief operating decision-making group is comprised of the Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, the Senior Vice President of Operations and the President of South
American Operations.
The operating segments are managed separately because each segment represents a distinct use
of Company resources and a separate contribution to the Companys cash flows. The Companys
reportable operating segments include the Palmarejo, San Bartolomé, Martha, Rochester, Kensington,
and Endeavor mining properties. All operating segments are engaged in the discovery or mining of
gold and silver and generate the majority of their revenues from the sale of these precious metal
concentrates or refined precious metals. The Martha mine sells precious metal concentrates,
typically under long-term contracts, to smelters located in Mexico. The Kensington mine sells
precious metal concentrates, typically under long-term contracts, to smelters in China and Germany.
Refined gold and silver produced by the Rochester, Palmarejo and San Bartolomé mines are
principally sold on a spot basis to precious metals trading banks, such as Standard Bank,
Mitsubishi, Auramet, Valcambi, International Commodities, and Mitsui. Concentrates produced at the
Endeavor mine are sold to Nyrstar (formerly Zinifex), an Australia smelter. The Companys
exploration programs are reported in its other segment. The other segment also includes the
corporate headquarters, elimination of intersegment transactions and other items necessary to
reconcile to consolidated amounts. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same
as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies above. The Company evaluates
performance and allocates resources based on profit or loss before interest, income taxes,
depreciation and amortization, unusual and infrequent items, and extraordinary items.
Revenues from silver sales were $158.8 million and $73.3 million in the three months ended
June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Revenues from silver sales were $271.3 million and $133.3
million in the six months ended June 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Revenues from gold sales
were $72.3 million and $27.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010,
respectively. Revenues from gold sales were $159.4 million and $56.0 million in the six months
ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

NOTE 19 LITIGATION AND OTHER EVENTS
Idaho, Colorado, Maine and Washington Sites Related to Callahan Mining Corporation
During 1991, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Callahan Mining
Corporation.
During 2001, the U.S. Forest Service made a formal request for information regarding the
Deadwood Mine site located in central Idaho. Callahan Mining Corporation had operated at this site
during the 1940s. The Forest Service believes that some cleanup action is required at the
location.
28
Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
However, the Company did not acquire Callahan until 1991, more than 40 years after Callahan
disposed of its interest in the Deadwood property. The Company did not make any decisions with
respect to generation, transport or disposal of hazardous waste at the site. Therefore, the
Company believes that it is not liable for any cleanup, and if Callahan might be liable, it has no
substantial assets with which to satisfy any such liability. To date, no claim has been made by the
United States for any cleanup costs against either the Company or Callahan.
During 2002, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, made a formal request for
information regarding a Callahan mine site in the State of Maine. Callahan operated there in the
late 1960s, shut the operations down in the early 1970s and disposed of the property. The EPA
contends that some cleanup action is warranted at the site, and listed it on the National
Priorities List in late 2002. In 2009, the EPA and the State of Maine made additional formal
requests for information relating to the Maine Callahan mine site. The Company believes that
because it made no decisions with respect to generation, transport or disposal of hazardous waste
at this location, it is not liable for any cleanup costs. If Callahan might have liability, it has
no substantial assets with which to satisfy such liability. To date, no claim has been made for
any cleanup costs against either the Company or Callahan.
In January 2003, the Forest Service made a formal request for information regarding a Callahan
mine site in the State of Colorado known as the Akron Mine site. Callahan operated there in
approximately the late 1930s through the 1940s, and, to the Companys knowledge, disposed of the
property. The Company is not aware of what, if any, cleanup action the Forest Service is
contemplating. However, the Company did not make decisions with respect to generation, transport
or disposal of hazardous waste at this location, and therefore believes it is not liable for any
cleanup costs. If Callahan might have liability, it has no substantial assets with which to
satisfy such liability. To date, no claim has been made for any cleanup costs against either the
Company or Callahan.
By letter dated February 25, 2010, the State of Washington Department of Ecology notified
Callahan Mining Corporation that it found credible evidence supporting a conclusion that Callahan
is a potentially liable person for a release of a hazardous substance at the Van Stone mine located
approximately 21 miles northeast of Colville, Washington. The rights and liabilities of a
potentially liable person are described under Washington law. The Department of Ecology alleges
that Callahan sold the property in 1990. This is prior to Coeurs acquisition of Callahan, and
therefore Coeur has no knowledge of the facts and circumstances surrounding Washingtons
allegations. The Company did not make decisions with respect to generation, transport or disposal
of hazardous waste at this location. If Callahan might have liability, it has no substantial
assets with which to satisfy it. To date no claim has been made for any cleanup costs against
Callahan.
Temporary Restriction on Mining above 4,400 Meters at San Bartolomé
On October 14, 2009, the Bolivian state-owned mining organization, COMIBOL, announced by
resolution that it was temporarily suspending mining activities above the elevation of 4,400 meters
above sea level while stability studies of Cerro Rico mountain are undertaken. The Company holds
rights to mine above this elevation under valid contracts backed by Supreme Decree with COMIBOL as
well as contracts with local mining cooperatives that hold their rights through COMIBOL. The
Company temporarily adjusted its San Bartolomé mine plan to confine mining activities to the ore
deposits below 4,400 meters above sea level and timely notified COMIBOL of the need to lift the
restriction.
In March 2010, the San Bartolomé mine began mining operations in high grade material located
in the Huacajchi deposit above the 4,400 meter level under an
agreement with the cooperatives. The Huacajchi deposit was confirmed to be excluded from the October 2009
resolution. Other
mining areas above the 4,400 meter level continue to be suspended. The mine plan adjustment
may reduce production until the Company is able to resume mining above 4,400 meters. It is
uncertain at this
29
Coeur dAlene Mines Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
time how long the temporary suspension will remain in place. If the restriction is not lifted, the
Company may need to write down the carrying value of the asset.
NOTE 20 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Dennis E. Wheeler, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, and director,
notified the Board of Directors of his decision to resign from all

resignation.
On
July 14, 2011, the Company paid $2.0 million to purchase
1.9 million shares of Huldra Silver Inc., a
near term silver producer in British Columbia at its Treasure Mountain Project. The purchase
represents a 14.05% interest in Huldra Silver Inc.
On
July 19, 2011, the Company paid $4.5 million to purchase
4.5 million shares of Soltoro LTD.,
which is advancing the El Rayo Silver Project in Jalisco, Mexico. The purchase represents an 8.25%
interest in Soltoro LTD.
The Companys Bolivian subsidiary, Empresa Minera Manquiri (Manquiri), was notified by
the Bolivian revenue service, Servicio de Impuestos Nacionales (SIN) in February 2011 that it
would be audited. On July 18, 2011, Manquiri discovered through informal
communications with SIN that some observations emerged with regard to a tax
position taken on its fiscal 2008 and 2009 tax returns. Manquiri obtained legal
advice from local counsel and on July 26, 2011, filed amended returns for the two
years. In addition, Manquiri paid an additional $3.3 million in tax for the fiscal
2009 period and related interest of $0.4 million. In addition, the Company anticipates SIN
to assess penalties of at least 20% of the tax payable, however such
penalty has not yet been assessed.

Item 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A)
is designed to provide the reader of our financial statements with a narrative from managements
perspective on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and other factors that may
affect our future results. We believe it is important to read our MD&A in conjunction with our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as well as other publicly
available information.
This report contains numerous forward-looking statements relating to the Companys gold and
silver mining business, including estimated production data, expected operating schedules, expected
capital costs and other operating data and permit and other regulatory approvals. Such
forward-looking statements are identified by the use of words such as believes, intends,
expects, hopes, may, should, will, plan, projected, contemplates, anticipates or
similar words. Actual production, operating schedules, results of operations, ore reserves and
resources could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements include: (i) the risk factors set forth below under Part II, Item 1A
including the risk factors set forth under Item 1A (Risk Factors) of the Companys Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and the risk factors set forth under Item 1A
(Risk Factors) of the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended
March 31, 2011; (ii) risks and hazards inherent in the mining business (including environmental
hazards, industrial accidents, weather and geologically related conditions); (iii) changes in the
market prices of gold and silver; (iv) uncertainties inherent in the Companys production,
exploratory and developmental activities, including risks relating to permitting and regulatory
delays; (v) any future labor disputes or work stoppages; (vi) uncertainties inherent in the
estimation of gold and silver ore reserves; (vii) changes resulting from the Companys future
acquisition of new mining properties or businesses; (viii) reliance on third parties to operate
certain mines where the Company owns silver production and reserves; (ix) the loss of any
third-party smelter to which the Company markets silver and gold; (x) effects of environmental and
other governmental regulations; (xi) risks inherent in the ownership or operation of or investment
in mining properties or businesses in foreign countries; (xii) the worldwide economic downturn and
difficult conditions in the global capital and credit markets; and (xiii) the Companys possible
inability to raise additional financing necessary to conduct its business, make payments or
refinance its debt. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
MD&A includes references to total cash operating costs and cash costs per ounce of silver and
gold produced, both on an individual mine basis and on a consolidated basis. Total cash operating
costs per ounce and cash costs per ounce are measurements that management uses to monitor and
evaluate the performance of its mining operations and are not measurements calculated under U.S.
GAAP. A reconciliation of total cash operating costs and cash costs per ounce to production
expenses, which is calculated under U.S. GAAP, is also provided in the section titled Operating
Statistics herein and should be referred to when reading the total cash costs per ounce
measurement.
Introduction to the Company
The Company is a large primary silver producer with growing gold production and has assets
located in the United States, Mexico, Bolivia, Argentina and Australia. The Palmarejo mine, San
Bartolomé mine, Kensington mine, Rochester mine and Martha mine, each of which is operated by the
Company, and the Endeavor mine, which is operated by a non-affiliated party, constituted the
Companys principal sources of mining revenues during the first six months of 2011. Coeur is an
Idaho corporation incorporated in 1928.
31
The Companys business strategy is to discover, acquire, develop and operate low-cost silver
and gold operations that will produce long-term cash flow, provide opportunities for growth through
continued exploration, and generate superior and sustainable returns for shareholders. The
Companys management focuses on maximizing cash flow from its existing operations, the main
elements of which are silver and gold prices, cash costs of production and capital expenditures.
The Company also focuses on reducing its non-operating costs in order to maximize cash flow.
The results of the Companys operations are significantly affected by fluctuation in prices of
silver and gold, which may fluctuate widely and are affected by
numerous factors beyond its
control, including interest rates, expectations regarding inflation, currency values, governmental
decisions regarding the disposal of precious metals stockpiles, global and regional political and
economic conditions and other factors. In addition, the Company faces challenges including raising
capital, increasing production and managing social, political and environmental issues. Operating
costs at its mines are subject to variation due to a number of factors such as changing commodity
prices, ore grades, metallurgy, revisions to mine plans and changes in accounting principles. At
foreign locations, operating costs are also influenced by currency fluctuations that may affect the
Companys U.S. dollar costs.
Overview of Performance
Production
In the second quarter of 2011, the Companys total silver production increased 0.6 million
ounces to 4.8 million ounces as compared to 4.2 million ounces in the comparable period in 2010.
The increase is primarily due to higher production from Palmarejo compared to the same time period
in 2010. The Companys total gold production in the second
quarter of 2011 increased 37,532
ounces, or 162.3%, to 60,656 ounces, as compared to 23,124 ounces in the comparable period in 2010.
The increase was primarily driven by the Kensington mine, which operated at full capacity during
the second quarter of 2011.
Metal Prices
Sales of metal increased $130.1 million, or 128.8%, to $231.1 million in the second quarter of
2011, compared to $101.0 million in the second quarter of 2010, primarily due to production from
the Kensington and Palmarejo mines and from substantially higher average realized silver and gold
prices. The Companys average realized silver and gold prices during the second quarter were
$39.11 per ounce and $1,504 per ounce, respectively, representing increases of 110.7% and 27.9%
respectively, over last years second quarter. Silver production contributed 68.7% of the Companys
total metal sales during the second quarter of 2011, compared to 72.6% during the second quarter of 2010.
Earnings
The Company reported net income of $38.6 million, or $0.43 per share, and a net loss of $50.7
million, or $0.57 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The
Company reported net income of $51.1 million, or $0.57 per
share, and a net loss of $63.6 million,
or $0.75 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The earnings
reflect non-cash fair value adjustments that decreased net income by $12.4 million and $42.5
million in the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $17.7 million and $46.8
million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These non-cash fair value
adjustments are driven primarily by higher gold prices which increased the estimated future
liabilities related to the Franco-Nevada royalty obligation, gold lease facility and put and call
options.
Interest expense increased $3.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 as
compared to the same period in 2010, primarily due to a decrease in capitalized interest related to
commencement of production at the Kensington mine on July 3, 2010, thereby decreasing capitalized
interest in 2011 coupled with new borrowings related to the
Kensington term facility.
32
Other Highlights
In addition to the matters discussed above regarding the key elements of the Companys
business strategy, the matters management considers most important in evaluating the Companys
financial condition and results of operations include:
|
|
The average price of silver (Handy & Harman) and gold (London Gold PM)
for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $38.40 and $1,506 per
ounce, respectively, compared to $18.38 and $1,197 per ounce,
respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The market
price of silver and gold on August 5, 2011 was $37.92 per ounce and
$1,659 per ounce, respectively. |
|
|
|
The Company produced a total of 4.8 million ounces of silver during
the second quarter of 2011, which was a 14.6% increase over the second
quarter of 2010. The Company produced a total of 60,656 ounces of
gold during the second quarter of 2011, which was a 162.3% increase
over the second quarter of 2010. The Company produced a total of 8.9
million ounces of silver during the six months ended June 30, 2011
which was a 16.8% increase over the six months ended June 30, 2010.
The Company produced a total of 113,786 ounces of gold during the six
months ended June 30, 2011, which was a 132.7% increase over the six
months ended June 30, 2010. |
|
|
|
Net cash provided by operating activities for the second quarter of
2011 was $111.1 million, compared to $32.5 million during the second
quarter of 2010. Net cash provided by operating activities for the
first six months of 2011 was $146.9 million, compared to $23.2 million
during the first six months of 2010. |
|
|
|
The Company spent $25.8 million on capital expenditures in the second
quarter of 2011, which represents a 43.3% decrease from the same time
period last year. The Company spent $41.7 million on capital
expenditures during the first six months of 2011, compared to $92.7
million spent in the first six months of 2010. The majority of the
capital expenditures for the first half of 2010 were at Kensington,
which began commercial production in July of 2010. |
|
|
|
During the second quarter of 2011, the Company used cash of
approximately $10 million to purchase equity securities in development
stage mining companies. |
|
|
|
The Companys ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.50
to 1 at June 30, 2011, which is a significant increase from .98 to 1.0
at December 31, 2010. |
|
|
|
There was a significant decrease in accrued liabilities and other as a
result of the Companys decision to sell metal on a spot basis as
opposed to pre-selling, which it had done during the first quarter of
last year and the repayment of the Mitsubishi gold lease position. |
Operating Highlights and Statistics
Palmarejo Mine:
Production during the second quarter of 2011 was 2.4 million ounces of silver and 33,389
ounces of gold representing increases of 121.4% and 67.4%, respectively, compared to the second
quarter of 2010. Production for the six months ending June 30,
2011 was 4.1 million ounces of
silver and 61,148 ounces of gold, representing increases of 72.9% and 43.8%, respectively, compared
to the same time period of 2010. Cash operating costs and total cash costs during the second
quarter decreased by 134.1% to ($3.68) per ounce compared to the second quarter of 2010. Cash
operating costs and total cash costs during the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased by 101.3%
to ($0.10) per ounce compared to the same time period during 2010. Production costs applicable to
sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased by 17.7% compared to the same time period
in 2010 due to an increase in production. Production costs applicable to sales increased 23.7% for
the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to
33
the same time period in 2010. The increase in production levels are due to a significant
increase in silver ore grades, combined with an increase in recovery rates on silver.
San Bartolomé Mine:
Silver production for the second quarter of 2011 decreased 6.5% to 1.7 million ounces of
silver, compared to 1.9 million ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2010. Silver production
for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased 18.9% to 3.5 million ounces of silver, compared to
2.9 million ounces of silver during the same time period in 2010. Production costs applicable to
sales decreased by 7.9% during the second quarter of 2011 as compared
to the second quarter of 2010. Production costs applicable to sales increased 14.1%
during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the
same period in 2010. Total cash operating costs per ounce during the second
quarter of 2011 were $8.73 and total cash costs per ounce, including royalties and taxes, were
$10.32, compared to $7.78 and $8.32, respectively, in the second quarter of 2010. Total cash
operating costs per ounce during the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $8.93 and total cash costs
per ounce, including royalties and taxes, were $10.40, compared to $8.57 and $9.22 for the same
time period in 2010. Tons milled decreased to 378,640 from 446,909 in the second quarter of 2010.
Tons milled increased to 766,308 in the six months ended June 30, 2011, from 740,014 for the same
time period in 2010. The decrease in the production of silver at San Bartolomé in the second
quarter resulted from reduced tons of ore milled during that time period due to maintenance issues
at the mine. Silver ore grades increased 4.8% in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the
second quarter of 2010. Silver ore grades increased 13.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2011 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.
On
October 14, 2009, the Bolivian state-owned mining organization,
COMIBOL, announced by resolution that it was temporarily suspending mining
activities above the elevation of 4,400 meters above sea level while stability studies of Cerro
Rico mountain are undertaken. The Company holds rights to mine above this elevation under valid
contracts backed by Supreme Decree with COMIBOL as well as contracts with local mining cooperatives
who hold their rights through COMIBOL. The Company temporarily adjusted its mine plan to confine
mining activities to the ore deposits below 4,400 meters above sea level and timely notified
COMIBOL of the need to lift the restriction. The mine plan has been temporarily adjusted and
mining continues on the remainder of the property. In March 2010, San Bartolomé began mining
operations in high grade material located in the Huacajchi deposit above the 4,400 meter level
under an agreement with the cooperatives, although restrictions on mining above the
4,400 meter level continue. The Huacajchi deposit was confirmed to be excluded from the October
2009 resolution. Access to the Huacajchi deposit and its higher grade material is having a
beneficial effect on production and cost at the mine. Other mining areas above the 4,400 meter
level continue to be suspended. The Company does not use explosives in its surface-only mining
activities and is sensitive to the preservation of the mountain under its contracts with the
state-owned mining entity and the local cooperatives.
Martha Mine:
Silver production at the Martha mine decreased 81.6% to 0.1 million ounces in the second
quarter of 2011 compared to 0.5 million ounces in the second quarter of 2010. Silver production
decreased 69.3% to 0.3 million ounces during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to 0.9
million ounces for the same time period in 2010. Production costs applicable to sales decreased by
9.3% during the quarter and 70.7% during the six months ended June 30, 2011, due to a decrease in
silver production and a decrease in ore grade. Total cash operating costs per ounce in the second
quarter of 2011 were $38.79 and total cash costs per ounce, including royalties and taxes, were
$40.47, as compared to $8.97 and $9.57, respectively, during the second quarter of 2010. Total
cash operating costs per ounce in the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $29.60 and total cash
costs per ounce, including royalties and taxes, were $30.86, as compared to $11.57 and $12.12,
respectively, for the same time period during 2010. The decrease in
silver production for the quarter was
primarily due to an 89.2% decrease in ore grade.
Rochester Mine:
Production was 0.3 million ounces of silver and 1,397 ounces of gold during the second quarter
of 2011 compared to 0.5 million ounces of silver and 2,616 ounces of gold in the second quarter of
2010. Production was 0.7 million ounces of silver and 2,848 ounces of gold during the six months
ended June 30, 2011 compared to 1.1 million ounces of silver and 5,306 ounces of gold during the
same time period of 2010. Production was lower due to continued leach down of the ore on the
existing leach pad. Production costs applicable to sales decreased by 4.5% during the second
quarter of 2011 and increased 11.5% during the six months ended June 30, 2011, due to the costs and
recoveries associated with the residual heap leaching process. Total cash operating costs per
ounce in the second quarter of 2011 were $4.34 and total cash costs per ounce, including production
taxes, were $6.88 in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to total cash operating costs per ounce
of $2.44 and total cash costs per ounce of $2.93 in the second quarter of 2010. Total cash
operating costs per ounce in the first six months of 2011 were $7.31 and total cash costs per
ounce, including production taxes, were $9.37 in the first six months of 2011 as compared to total
cash operation costs per ounce of $2.06 and total cash costs per ounce of $2.64 for the same time
period in 2010. The increase in total cash cost per ounce was primarily due to a decrease in
production as described above.
34
In 2008, the Company commenced studies to investigate the potential to recommence mining and
leaching of new material and in 2009 and 2010 completed feasibility studies demonstrating the
viability of an expansion of mining and leaching operations at its Rochester mine through 2017. The
Company prepared an Amended Plan of Operations for resumption of mining within the existing and
permitted Rochester pit and construction of an additional heap leach pad, all within the currently
permitted mine boundary. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) deemed this plan complete in August
2009 under federal regulations and initiated the National Environmental Policy Act process. The BLM
issued a positive Decision Record (DR) for the mine to extend silver and gold mining operations by
several years with new production ounces expected to begin being recovered in the fourth quarter of
2011.
Endeavor Mine:
Silver production at the Endeavor mine in the second quarter of 2011 was 0.2 million ounces
compared to 0.1 million ounces in the second quarter of 2010. Silver production at the Endeavor
mine in the six months ended June 30, 2011 was 0.4 million ounces compared to 0.3 million ounces
during the same time period in 2010. Production costs applicable to sales increased 129.9% during
the quarter due to an increased operating cost contribution as a
result of higher silver prices. Production costs applicable to sales
increased 114.2% during the six months ended June 30, 2011. Total cash costs per ounce of silver
produced were $20.04 in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $8.98 in the second quarter of 2010.
Total cash costs per ounce of silver produced were $18.85 during the six months ended June 30,
2011, compared to $8.04 during the same time period in 2010. The increase in total cash cost per
ounce was primarily due to the price participation component terms of the silver purchase agreement with CBH Resources Ltd. Under the terms of the price
participation component, CDE Australia Pty. Ltd, a subsidiary of the Company, pays an additional
operating cost contribution of 50% of the amount by which the silver price exceeds $7.00 per ounce.
As of June 30, 2011, CDE Australia Pty Ltd had recovered approximately 61.7% of the
transaction consideration consisting of 3.3 million payable ounces, or 16.5% of the 20.0 million
maximum payable silver ounces to which CDE Australia Pty Ltd is entitled under the terms of the
silver sale and purchase agreement.
Kensington Mine:
The Kensington mine is an underground gold mine that commenced commercial production on July
3, 2010. Production for the second quarter of 2011 was 25,758 ounces of gold. Production for the
six months ended June 30, 2011 was 49,434 ounces of gold. Total cash operating costs per ounce in
the second quarter of 2011 were $923.56. Total cash operating costs per ounce in the six months
ended June 30, 2011 were $954.78.

The leach cycle at Rochester requires 5 to 10 years to recover gold and
silver contained in the ore. The Company estimates the ultimate recovery to be approximately
61% for silver and 92% for gold. However, ultimate recoveries will not be known until
leaching operations cease, which is currently estimated for 2014 for the current leach pad.
Current recovery may vary significantly from ultimate recovery. See Critical Accounting
Policies and Estimates Ore on Leach Pad in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2010. |

|
Units sold at realized metal prices will not match reported metal sales due
primarily to the effects on revenues of mark-to-market adjustments on embedded derivatives in
the Companys provisionally priced sales contracts. |
Operating Costs per Ounce and Cash Costs per Ounce are calculated by dividing the operating
cash costs and cash costs computed for each of the Companys mining properties for a specified
period by the amount of gold ounces or silver ounces produced by that property during that same
period. Management uses cash operating costs per ounce and cash costs per ounce as key indicators
of the profitability of each of its mining properties. Gold and silver are sold and priced in the
world financial markets on a U.S. dollar per ounce basis.
Cash Operating Costs and Cash Costs are costs directly related to the physical activities of
producing silver and gold, and include mining, processing and other plant costs, third-party
refining and smelting costs, marketing expenses, on-site general and administrative costs,
royalties, in-mine drilling expenditures related to production and other direct costs. Sales of
by-product metals are deducted from the above in computing cash costs. Cash costs exclude
depreciation, depletion and amortization, accretion, corporate general and administrative expenses,
exploration, interest, and pre-feasibility costs. Cash operating costs include all cash costs
except production taxes and royalties, if applicable. Cash costs are calculated and presented
using the Gold Institute Production Cost Standard applied consistently for all periods presented.
37
Total operating costs and cash costs per ounce are non-U.S. GAAP measures and investors are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on them and are urged to read all U.S. GAAP accounting
disclosures presented in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. In
addition, see the reconciliation of cash costs to production costs under Reconciliation of
Non-U.S. GAAP Cash Costs to U.S. GAAP Production Costs set forth below.
The following tables present a reconciliation between non-U.S. GAAP cash operating costs
per ounce and cash costs per ounce to production costs applicable to sales including depreciation,

Exploration Activity
During the three months ending June 30, 2011, the Company drilled over 29,208 meters (95,827
feet) of new core in its global exploration program. The majority of this drilling was devoted to
exploration at the Companys Palmarejo, Rochester, Kensington and Martha mine properties as well as
the Joaquin project in Argentina.
Palmarejo (Mexico)
The Company completed 16,841 meters (55,253 feet) in the second quarter in the large Palmarejo
District. This exploration work was divided nearly equally between targets around the Palmarejo
mine from both surface and underground drill platforms, specifically the Rosario, Tucson and
Chapotillo zones, and at Guadalupe and La Patria deposits located
near the mine. Drilling at La Patria represents the
first drilling by Coeur on this mineralized, northwest-trending, district-scale structure. La
Patria is over four kilometers (2.5 miles) long and consists of three separate zones. This years
drilling on the north zone of La Patria has encountered several gold and silver-bearing veins
located near the surface, suggesting the potential for a surface mineable deposit.
San Bartolomé (Bolivia)
The new program of trenching and sampling, which commenced late in the first quarter,
continued into the second quarter of 2011 at San Bartolomé. For the year to date, over 133 new
trenches have been completed and sampled resulting in 672 new samples collected from the trenches
on one-meter vertical intervals. All of this work was centered on the Huacajchi and Santa Rita
areas to identify drill targets for follow up.
Kensington (USA)
Exploration at Kensington consisted of just over 1,000 meters (3,300 feet) of core drilling to
discover new mineralization and expand ore reserves. The main focus of this drilling was on the
Comet exploration target which is located approximately 1,000 meters (3,300 feet) north of the
Kensington ore processing facility. Comet is one of several gold-bearing vein structures, occurring
within a 305 to 457 meter (1,000 to 1,500 feet) corridor, extending
over 3,000 meters (9,800 feet)
southward from the Raven zone at the north to the Jualin deposit, near the mill, to the south.
Rochester (USA)
Drilling at Rochester shifted to exploration in the second quarter of the year. A total of
6,809 meters (22,346 feet) of reverse circulation drilling were completed in the second quarter,
all at the Nevada Packard area.
Martha and Joaquin (Argentina)
Coeur is actively engaged in defining the mineral resources at Joaquin and advancing towards
completion of a feasibility study, which will lift the Companys managing joint venture interest
in the Joaquin project
from 51% to 61%. The Company holds rights to further its interest to 71%. The Joaquin project is
located approximately 100 kilometers (62 miles) by road, northwest of the Martha mine.
A total of 4,556 meters (14,948 feet) of core drilling was completed on all targets in the
Santa Cruz Province of southern Argentina in the second quarter of 2011. This included 3,072
meters (10,079 feet) at Joaquin with the remainder focused around Coeurs wholly owned and operated
Martha mine. Targets drilled this quarter were extensions of the La Morena, La Morocha and La
Negra zones as well as initial definition of the high-grade portions of La Negra at Joaquin, and new
targets at the Martha mine and at the nearby Wendy property. Joaquin, La Morocha and La Negra
are open along strike and at depth. All need further in-fill drilling to advance the current
mineral resources for use in scoping and feasibility studies.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the Companys consolidated financial statements in
conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
amounts reported in their consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The areas
requiring significant management estimates and assumptions relate to: recoverable ounces from
proven and probable reserves that are the basis of future cash flow estimates and
units-of-production depreciation and amortization calculations; useful lives utilized for
depreciation, depletion and amortization; estimates of future cash flows for long-lived assets;
estimates of recoverable gold and silver ounces in ore on leach pad; amount and timing of
reclamation and remediation costs; valuation allowance for deferred tax assets; assessment of
valuation allowance for value added tax receivables; and other employee benefit liabilities.
Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications of prior year balances have been made to conform
to the current year presentation. The most significant reclassifications were to reclassify the
Cerro Bayo statements of operations from historical presentation to income (loss) from discontinued
operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented.
Correction of an Immaterial Error: In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company identified an
error in the amount of income tax benefit recognized in 2009. The Company assessed the materiality
of this error in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 and determined that the error
was immaterial to previously reported amounts contained in its periodic reports and the Company
intends to correct this error through subsequent periodic filings. See Note D Correction of an
Immaterial Error in the Companys Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Please see Note C Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Companys Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2010 for additional critical accounting policies and estimates.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2010
Sales of metal from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2011 increased by 128.8% to
$231.1 million from $101.0 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase in sales of metal
was due to a 121.4% increase in the quantity of silver ounces produced at the Palmarejo silver and
gold mine and a full quarter of gold production at the Kensington gold mine. In the second quarter
of 2011, the Company sold 4.1 million ounces of silver and
49,930 ounces of gold compared to 4.1
million ounces of silver and 23,645 ounces of gold for the same period in 2010. Realized silver
and gold prices in the second quarter of 2011 increased 110.7% and
27.9%, respectively, over the
second quarter 2010. Realized silver and gold prices were $39.11 and $1,504 per ounce,
respectively, in the second quarter of 2011, compared to $18.56 and $1,176 per ounce, respectively,
in the comparable quarter of 2010.
Included in sales of metals are the by-product sales derived from the sale of gold by our
silver mines. Total gold sales for the periods ending June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $72.3 and $27.7
million, respectively. Of those totals, by-product metal sales were $46.3 million compared to
$27.7 million, respectively. The Company believes that presentation of these metal sales as a
by-product from its silver operations will continue to be appropriate in the future. The increases in by-product sales were primarily due to the increase in gold prices.
In the second quarter of 2011, the Company produced a total of 4.8 million ounces of silver
and 60,656 ounces of gold, compared to 4.2 million ounces of silver and 23,124 ounces of gold in
the second quarter of 2010. The increase is primarily due to higher production from Palmarejo when
compared with the same time period in 2010. The Companys total gold production in the second
quarter of 2011 increased 37,532 ounces, or 162.3%, to 60,656 ounces, as compared to 23,124 ounces
in the comparable
42
period in 2010. The increase was driven by the Kensington mine, which operated
at full capacity during the second quarter of 2011.
While quarterly sales of metal rose 128.8%, production costs applicable to sales of metal in
the second quarter of 2011 increased only 31.6% from
$58.6 million in the second quarter of 2010 to $77.1 million in the second
quarter of 2011. This difference is primarily due to significant increases in metal prices.
Depreciation and depletion increased by $27.6 million, from $30.0 million to $57.6 million,
compared to the second quarter of 2010. The increase is due to depreciation and depletion expense
from the Kensington mine, which commenced commercial production in the third quarter of 2010.
Costs and Expenses
Administrative and general expenses decreased by $5.1 million, from $6.9 million to $1.8
million, as compared to the second quarter of 2010. The decrease is due primarily to lower
non-cash incentive compensation, corporate administrative, legal and other costs.
Exploration expenses increased to $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $3.2
million in the same period of 2010.
Other Income and Expenses
The Company recognized $0.4 million of losses on debt extinguishments during the second
quarter of 2011 related to payments on the Senior Term Notes due 2012 compared to a loss of $4.0
million during the second quarter of 2010, due to the exchange of a portion of the 3.25%
Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 and the 1.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 for shares of
common stock.
Non-cash
fair value adjustments, net in the three months ended June 30,
2011 were a loss of $12.4
million compared to a loss of $42.5 million in the second quarter of 2010.
The majority of the decrease in the loss was
due to Franco-Nevada derivative adjustments during the quarter, offset by a decrease of
foreign currency contracts and Mandalay derivatives.
Interest and other income in the second quarter of 2011 increased by $6.6 million to a gain
of $2.8 million compared with a loss of $3.8 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase
was due to increased cash and cash equivalents on hand as compared to the same time period in
2010. The loss in 2010 was primarily due to foreign currency transactions.
Interest expense, net of capitalized interest, increased to $9.3 million in the second
quarter of 2011 from $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase in interest expense
was primarily due to a decrease in capitalized interest related to the Kensington mine, which was
placed into service on July 3, 2010, thereby decreasing capitalized interest.
Income Taxes
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported an income tax provision of
approximately $21.4 million compared to an income tax benefit of $9.4 million in the second quarter
of 2010. The following table summarizes the components of the Companys income tax benefit
(provision) for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands):

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized a current provision
in Bolivia and Australia primarily related to higher metal prices and inflation adjustments on
non-monetary assets. Further, the Company accrued foreign withholding taxes of approximately $0.7
million on inter-company transactions between the U.S. parent and subsidiaries operating in Mexico,
Argentina and Australia. In addition, the Company recognized a net
$3.9 million deferred tax
provision for the recognition of deferred taxes on deductible temporary differences, foreign
exchange rate adjustments and net operating loss carryforwards in various jurisdictions
(principally in Bolivia and Mexico).
During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized a current provision in

Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2010
Sales of metal from continuing operations in the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased by
127.5% to $430.7 million from $189.3 million in the same time period in 2010. The increase in
sales of metal was due to a 134.6% increase in the quantity of gold ounces sold, primarily from the
Companys Palmarejo and the Kensington mines. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company
sold 7.8 million ounces of silver and 115,852 ounces of gold compared to 7.7 million ounces of
silver and 49,379 ounces of gold for the same period in 2010. Realized silver and gold prices in
the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased 99.7% and 25.5%, respectively, over the same time
period in 2010. Realized silver and gold prices were $35.42 and $1,430 per ounce, respectively, in
six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $17.74 and $1,139 per ounce, respectively, in the
comparable time period of 2010.
Included in sales of metals are the by-product sales derived from the sale of gold by our
silver mines. Total gold sales for the six months ending June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $159.4 and
$56.0 million, respectively. Of those totals, by-product metal sales were $85.2 million compared
to $56.0 million, respectively. The Company believes that presentation of these metal sales as a
by-product from its silver operations will continue to be appropriate in the future.
In the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company produced a total of 8.9 million ounces of
silver and 113,786 ounces of gold, compared to 7.6 million ounces of silver and 48,907 ounces of
gold in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase is primarily due to higher production
from Palmarejo and San Bartolomé relative to the same time period in 2010. The Companys total
gold production in the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased
64,879 ounces or 132.7%, to 113,786
ounces, as compared to 48,907 ounces in the comparable period in
2010. The increase was primarily driven by
the Kensington mine, which operated at full capacity during the second quarter of 2011.
In
the six months ended June 30, 2011, sales of metal rose 127.5%,
while production costs
applicable to sales of metal in the same time period increased only 53.6% from $110.4 million to
$169.6 million. This difference is primarily due to significant increases in metal prices.
Depreciation and depletion increased by
$50.0 million, from $57.7 million to $107.7 million,
compared to the same time period in 2010. The increase is due to depreciation and depletion
expense from the Kensington mine, which commenced commercial production in the third quarter of
2010.

a gain of $4.7 million compared to a loss of $2.1 million in the same time period of 2010. The
increase is due to higher cash and cash equivalents on hand as compared to the same time period in
2010. The loss in 2010 was primarily due to foreign currency transactions.
Interest expense, net of capitalized interest, increased to $18.6 million in the six months
ended June 30, 2011 from $11.5 million in the same time period of 2010. The increase in interest
expense was primarily due to a decrease in capitalized interest related to the Kensington mine,
which was placed into service on July 3, 2010, thus decreasing capitalized interest.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Working Capital; Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of June 30, 2011, the Companys cash, equivalents and short-term investments totaled
$107.3 million compared to $66.1 million as of December 31, 2010. The increase was primarily
attributed to increases in cash provided by operating activities, offset by cash used for
investing and financing activities. See Cash Provided by Operating Activities.
The Companys working capital at June 30, 2011, increased by $123.1 million
to $118.6 million, compared to a deficit of $4.5 million at December 31, 2010. The ratio of current
assets to current liabilities was 1.50 to 1 at June 30, 2011 and was 0.98 to 1 at December 31,
2010.
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities in the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $111.1
million, compared with $32.5 million for the same time period in 2010. Net cash provided by
operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $146.9 million, compared with $23.2
million for the

Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $51.2 million,
compared to $92.6 million used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The
decrease is primarily due to lower capital investment activity at the Kensington mine.
The Company spent $25.8 million on capital expenditures in the second quarter of 2011, which
represents a 43.3% decrease from the same time period last year. During the six months ended June
30, 2011, capital expenditures totaled $41.7 million compared to $92.7 million for the first six
months of 2010. The majority of the capital expenditures for the first half of 2010 were at
Kensington, which began commercial production in July of 2010.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company used cash of $11.9 million to
purchase investments, including approximately $10 million to purchase equity securities in
development stage mining companies, and generated cash of $2.8 million by selling investments.
Cash Used in Financing Activities
Net
cash used in financing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $34.1
million compared to $1.9 million for the same time period last year. During the three months ended
June 30, 2011, the Company made significant debt payments and did not borrow any funds. During the
three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company borrowed $22 million and paid $23.2 million on
existing debt.
The Companys financing activities used $55.0 million of cash during the six months ended June
30, 2011 compared to cash provided by financing activity of $87.8 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2010. The decrease is primarily due to cash payments on existing debt in the
current quarter and the receipt of the proceeds from issuance of notes in the first quarter of
2010.
Debt and Capital Resources
3.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028
As of June 30, 2011, the outstanding balance of the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes was $48.7
million, or $44.4 million net of debt discount.
The carrying value of the equity component representing the embedded conversion option at June
30, 2011, and December 31, 2010 was $10.9 million and $10.9 million, respectively.
1.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no outstanding 1.25% Convertible Senior Notes.
48
On January 18, 2011, the
Company repurchased $945,000 in aggregate principal amount of the
notes pursuant to a Tender Offer Statement filed on December 10, 2010. The Company repurchased the
remaining $914,000 in aggregate principal amount of the notes outstanding on January 21, 2011.
Senior Term Notes due December 31, 2012
As of June 30, 2011 the balance of the Senior Term Notes was $22.5 million.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 the Company paid in cash, $3.8 million and
$7.5 million in principal and $0.4 million and $0.9 million in interest, respectively, in
connection with the quarterly payments due under the notes. In addition, $0.4 million and $0.9
million were paid and recognized as a loss in connection with quarterly debt payments as a result
of the Companys election to make the required principal and interest payment entirely in cash.
The Company elected to pay the June 30, 2010 payment on the notes with a combination of 50%
cash and 50% common stock. The March 31, 2010 payment was paid entirely with common stock. For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 the Company issued 384,410 shares and 1,060,413
shares, respectively, of the Companys stock. In addition, $0.5 million and $1.6 million were paid
and recognized as a loss in connection with quarterly debt payments. The loss is recorded in debt
extinguishments.
Kensington Term Facility
As of June 30, 2011 the balance of the Kensington term facility was $89.8 million.
As a condition to the Kensington term facility with Credit Suisse, the Company agreed to enter
into a gold hedging program which protects a minimum of 243,750 ounces of gold production over the
life of the facility against the risk associated with fluctuations in the market price of gold.
This program consists of a series of zero cost collars which consist of a floor price and a ceiling
price of gold. Collars protecting 220,000 ounces of gold were outstanding at June 30, 2011. The
weighted average put feature of each collar was $943.09 and the weighted average call feature of
each collar was $1,858.41.
Gold Lease Facility
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no gold leased from Mitsubishi International Corporation
(MIC). At December 31, 2010, the Company had 10,000 ounces of gold leased from MIC, which it
delivered to MIC on March 22, 2011. The Company accounted for the gold lease facility as a
derivative instrument, which is recorded in accrued liabilities and other in the balance sheet.
As of December 31, 2010, based on the current futures metals prices for each of the delivery
dates and using a 3.1% discount rate, the fair value of the instrument was a liability of $14.1
million. The pre-credit risk adjusted fair value of the net derivative liability as of December
31, 2010 was $14.2 million. A credit risk adjustment of $0.1 million to the fair value of the
derivative reduced the reported amount of the net derivative liability on the Companys
consolidated balance sheet to $14.1 million.
Capital Leases
As
of June 30, 2011, Coeur Mexicana SA de CV (Coeur Mexicana), a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company, had outstanding balances on capital leases of $24.5 million.
Other capital leases for
equipment and facilities leases totaling $9.6 million were
outstanding at June 30, 2011 with monthly payments through May 31, 2016.
49
Other
On July 6, 2010, the Company entered into a short-term financing agreement with AFCO Credit
Corporation of $2.4 million bearing interest at 2.9% to finance insurance premiums. Installments
of $0.2 million are paid monthly with the final payment to be made on June 1, 2011. As of June
30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, the outstanding balance was nil, and $1.1 million, respectively.
On July 15, 2009, to fund equipment purchases, Coeur Mexicana entered into an equipment
financing agreement bearing interest at 8.26% with Atlas Copco. This agreement is secured by
certain machinery and equipment. Twenty-four monthly installments will be made on the loans with
the final payment being made on January 31, 2012. As of June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2011, the
outstanding balance was $0.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
Palmarejo Gold Production Royalty Obligation
The Company recognized accretion expense on the Palmarejo gold production royalty obligation
of $5.8 million and $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010,
respectively, and $11.0 million and $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010,
respectively. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the remaining minimum obligation under
the royalty agreement was $76.5 million and $80.3 million, respectively.

2011 and 2010, $0.4 million and $8.4 million, respectively.
Litigation and Other Events
For a
discussion of litigation and other events, see Note 19 to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements, Litigation and Other Events.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Risk Mitigation Overview
The Company is exposed to various market risks as a part of its operations. In an effort to
mitigate losses associated with these risks, the Company may, at times, enter into derivative
financial instruments. These may take the form of forward sales contracts, foreign currency
exchange contracts and interest rate swaps. The Company does not actively engage in the practice of
trading derivative instruments for profit. This discussion of the Companys market risk assessments
contains forward looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results
and actions could differ materially from those discussed below.
The Companys operating results are substantially dependent upon the world market prices of
silver and gold. The Company has no control over silver and gold prices, which can fluctuate widely
and are affected by numerous factors, such as supply and demand and investor sentiment. From time
to time, in order to mitigate some of the risk associated with these fluctuations, the Company may
enter into forward sale contracts. The Company continually evaluates the potential benefits of
engaging in these strategies based on current market conditions. The Company may be exposed to
nonperformance risk by counterparties as a result of its hedging activities. This exposure would be
limited to the amount that the spot price of the metal falls short of the contract price. The
Company enters into contracts and other arrangements from time to time in an effort to reduce the
negative effect of price changes on its cashflows. These arrangements typically consist of managing
the Companys exposure to foreign
50
currency exchange rates and market prices associated with changes in gold and silver commodity
prices. The Company may also manage price risk by purchasing put options.
Concentrate Sales Contracts
The Company enters into concentrate sales contracts with third-party smelters. The contracts,
in general, provide for a provisional payment based upon provisional assays and quoted metal
prices. The provisionally priced sales contain an embedded derivative that is required to be
separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from
the sale of concentrates at the forward price at the time of sale. The embedded derivative, which
is the final settlement price based on a future price, does not qualify for hedge accounting.
These embedded derivatives are recorded as derivative assets (in Prepaid expenses and other) or
derivative liabilities (in Accrued liabilities and other) on the balance sheet and are adjusted to
fair value through earnings each period until the date of final settlement. At June 30, 2011, the
Company had outstanding provisionally priced sales of $24.8 million, consisting 341,058 ounces of
silver and 7,471 ounces of gold, which had a fair value of $23.6 million including the embedded
derivative. For each one cent per ounce change
in realized silver price, revenue would vary (plus or minus) approximately $3,000; and for each one
dollar per ounce change in realized gold price, revenue would vary (plus or minus) approximately
$7,500. At December 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding provisionally priced sales of $35.7
million consisting of 647,711 ounces of silver and 12,758 ounces of gold, which had a fair value of
approximately $37.4 million including the embedded derivative. For each one cent per ounce change
in realized silver price, revenue would vary (plus or minus) approximately $6,000 and for each one
dollar per ounce change in realized gold price, revenue would vary (plus or minus) approximately
$12,800.
Foreign Currency Contracts
The Company operates, or has mining interests, in several foreign countries, specifically
Argentina, Australia, Bolivia and Mexico, which exposes the Company to risks associated with
fluctuations in the exchange rates of the currencies involved. From time to time, as part of its
program to manage foreign currency risk, the Company may enter into foreign currency forward
exchange contracts. These contracts enable the Company to purchase a fixed amount of foreign
currencies at pre-established exchange rates. Gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts that
are related to firm commitments are designated and effective as hedges and are deferred and
recognized in the same period as the related transaction. All other contracts that do not qualify
as hedges are marked to market and the resulting gains or losses are recorded in income. The
Company continually evaluates the potential benefits of entering into these contracts to mitigate
foreign currency risk and proceeds when it believes that the exchange rates are most beneficial.
The Company periodically enters into forward foreign currency contracts to reduce the foreign
exchange risk associated with forecasted Mexican peso (MXP) operating costs at its Palmarejo
mine. At June 30, 2011, the Company had MXP foreign exchange contracts of $32.4 million in U.S.
dollars. These contracts require the Company to exchange U.S. dollars for MXP at a weighted
average exchange rate of 12.08 MXP to each U.S. dollar and had a fair
value of $0.3 million at June
30, 2011. The Company recorded mark-to-market gains (losses) of
$0.7 million and $0.3 million for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and $(1.6) million and $(1.2) million for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, which is reflected in fair value adjustments,
net. The Company recorded realized gains of $0.9 million and $1.1 million in Production costs
applicable to sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, and $0.5 million and $0.5
million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.
51
Gold Lease Facility
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no gold leased from Mitsubishi International Corporation
(MIC). At December 31, 2010, the Company had 10,000 ounces of gold leased from MIC, which it
delivered to MIC on March 22, 2011. The Company accounts for the gold lease facility as a
derivative instrument, which is recorded in accrued liabilities and other in the balance sheet.
On December 12, 2008, the Company entered into a gold lease facility with MIC. Pursuant to
this facility, the Company may lease amounts of gold from MIC and is obligated to deliver the same
amounts back to MIC and to pay specified lease fees to MIC that are equivalent to interest at
current market rates on the value of the gold leased. Pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated
Collateral Agreement, the Companys obligations under the facility are secured by certain
collateral. The collateral agreement specifies the maximum amount of gold the Company may lease
from MIC, as well as the amount and type of collateral.
As of December 31, 2010, based on the current futures metals prices for each of the delivery
dates and using a 3.1% discount rate, the fair value of the instrument was a liability of $14.1
million. The pre-credit risk adjusted fair value of the net derivative liability as of December
31, 2010 was $14.2 million. A credit risk adjustment of $0.1 million to the fair value of the
derivative reduced the reported amount of the net derivative liability on the Companys
consolidated balance sheet to $14.1 million.
Palmarejo Gold Production Royalty
On January 21, 2009, the Company entered into the gold production royalty transaction with
Franco-Nevada Corporation described in Note 10, Long-Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations,
Palmarejo Gold Production Royalty Obligation. The minimum royalty obligation ends when payments
have been made on a total of 400,000 ounces of gold. As of June 30, 2011, a total of 288,836
ounces of gold remain outstanding under the minimum royalty obligation. The price volatility
associated with the minimum royalty obligation is considered an embedded derivative financial
instrument under U.S. GAAP. The fair value of the embedded derivative at June 30, 2011 and
December 31, 2010 was a liability of $164.9 million and $162.0 million, respectively. During the
three and six months ended June 30, 2011, mark-to-market adjustments for this embedded derivative
amounted to a loss of $4.0 million and $2.9 million,
respectively. During the three and six months
ended June 30, 2010, mark-to-market adjustments for this embedded derivative and warrant amounted
to a loss of $30.0 million and a gain of $1.0 million, respectively. For the three months ended
June 30, 2011 and 2010, realized losses on settlement of the liabilities were $9.7 million and $3.7
million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2011
and 2010, realized losses on settlement of the liabilities were
$17.2 million and $6.8 million, respectively. The mark-to-market adjustments and realized losses
are included in fair value adjustments, net in the consolidated statement of operations.
For each $1.00 increase in the price of gold, the fair value of the net derivative liability
on June 30, 2011 would have increased by approximately $0.2 million. For each $1.00 decrease in
the price of gold, the fair value of the net derivative liability on June 30, 2011 would have
decreased by approximately $0.2 million.
Gold Forward Contracts
The Company purchases gold contracts to reduce the risk associated with potential decreases in
the market price of gold. At December 31, 2010, the Company had one outstanding forward gold
contract of 10,000 ounces at a fixed price of $1,380.00, which was settled on March 22, 2011 for a
gain of $0.5 million.
Kensington Term Facility
On June 30, 2011, in connection with the Kensington term facility described in Note 10,
Long-Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations, Kensington term facility, the Company had outstanding
call
52
options requiring it to deliver 220,000 ounces of gold at a weighted average strike price of
$1,858.41 per ounce if the market price of gold exceeds the strike price. At June 30, 2011, the
Company had outstanding put options allowing it to sell 220,000 ounces of gold at a weighted
average strike price of $943.09 per ounce if the market price of gold were to fall below the strike
price. The contracts will expire over the next five years. As of June 30, the fair market value
of these contracts was a net liability of $13.1 million. During the six months ended June 30,
2011, 23,750 ounces of gold call options at a weighted average strike price of $1,737.68 per ounce
expired resulting in a realized gain $1.4 million and 23,750 ounces of gold put options at a
weighted average strike price of $885.66 per ounce expired resulting in a realized loss of $1.4
million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Company carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including
its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), and management
necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and
procedures, which by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding managements
control objectives. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions
about the likelihood of future events. Based upon the foregoing, the Companys Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures
were effective and operating to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be
disclosed by it in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and to
provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys
management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Based on an evaluation by the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
such officers concluded that there was no change in the Companys internal control over financial
reporting during the quarter ending June 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information contained under Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements in this Form
10-Q is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Item 1A (Risk Factors) of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2010 sets forth information relating to important risks and uncertainties that could
materially adversely affect the Companys business, financial condition or operating results.
Those risk factors, as modified and supplemented by the risk factors in our Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 2011, continue to be relevant to an understanding of the
53
Companys business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, those risk factors have
been supplemented and updated in this Form 10-Q as set forth below. References to we, our and
us in these risk factors refer to the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not
presently know or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations.
Surrounding
communities may affect mining operations by restricting access to
supplies and workforce, or taking our facilities, or through legal
challenges:
All industries, including the mining industry, are subject to community actions. Communities
and non-governmental organizations have become increasingly active about mining activities at or
near their communities. They may install road blockades, demand payments, apply for injunctions for
work stoppage and file lawsuits for damages. These actions can relate not only to current
activities but also to prior mining activities by other owners or operators. The Company maintains
community relations and development programs to mitigate the risk of blockades or other restrictive
measures by local communities but no assurance can be made that our operations will not be materially
and adversely affected by community actions.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There
were no unregistered sales of equity securities in the three months ended
June 30, 2011.
