Tharisa has been riding high for a while now. Its share price has doubled over the past 12 months as commodity prices have strengthened significantly, and recently the company initiated underground mining at the Tharisa mine, an undertaking that takes mine life out to sixty years. So, in a sense, this boost to EPS comes as no surprise, Still, it’s nice to get the numbers in the bag as Tharisa continues to build strength in depth.
