This figure fell short of analyst predictions by over $53.3 million and represents a 16.3% drop from the company\u2019s first-quarter earnings of $111.7 million. This substantial drop is attributed to reduced sales prices for most products, coupled with surges in administrative, exploration and technical services costs. Furthermore, its finance expenses increased by 86%, influenced by rising interest rates. In spite of these challenges, Ma\u2019aden celebrated a record-setting quarter for phosphate production.<\/p>\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mining-technology.com\/news\/maaden-second-quarter-profits-fall-91\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.mining-technology.com\/news\/maaden-second-quarter-profits-fall-91\/<\/a><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Button Navs&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;navs&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<div class=\"cnl-bott-navs\">\n<div><span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/charltonsnaturalresources.com\/en\/chaarat-to-sell-its-kapan-mine-to-gold-mining-for-54-5-million\/\" target=\"_self\">Chaarat To Sell Its Kapan Mine To Gold Mining For $54.5 Million<\/a><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/charltonsnaturalresources.com\/en\/first-quantum-starts-up-zambia-nickel-mine-enters-standstill-deal-with-jiangxi\/\" target=\"_self\">First Quantum starts up Zambia nickel mine, enters standstill deal with Jiangxi<\/a><span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Legal Advice&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Legal Advice&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<div class=\"cnl-legal-advice\">\n<h3>This newsletter is for information purposes only.<\/h3>\n<p>Its contents do not constitute legal advice and it should not be regarded as a substitute for detailed advice in individual cases.\nTransmission of this information is not intended to create and receipt does not constitute a lawyer-client relationship between Charltons and the user or browser.\nCharltons is not responsible for any third party content which can be accessed through the website.<\/p>\n<p>If you do not wish to receive this newsletter please let us know by emailing us at <a href=\"mailto:unsubscribe@charltonslaw.com\">unsubscribe@charltonslaw.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Footer&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Footer&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<div class=\"cnl-footer\">\n        <div class=\"cnl-footer-award\">\n                <div>\n                       <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/legal\/newsletters\/cnl_logo_footer.png\">\n                        <h2>Boutique Transactional Law Firm of the Year 2020<\/h2>\n                        <span>Asian Legal Business Awards<\/span>\n                <\/div>\n        <\/div>        \n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cnl-foot-address\">\n        <div>Hong Kong Office: Dominion Centre, 12th Floor, 43-59 Queen\u2019s Road East, Hong Kong Tel: + (852) 2905 7888 Fax: + (852) 2854 9596<\/div>\n        <div>Website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.charltonslaw.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.charltonslaw.com<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NATURAL RESOURCES News August 2023 Saudi Arabia\u2019s Ma\u2019Aden Q2 Profit Plummets 91% Amid Rising Operational Costs &nbsp; The state-owned Saudi Arabia Mining Company (Ma\u2019aden) reported a 91% decline in its second-quarter net profit, amounting to $93.53 million (SR350.9 million), compared to the same period in the previous year.
