-- HIGHLIGHTS -- COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho, Aug. 1
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Coeur d'Alene Mines Corporation
(NYSE:CDENYSE:TSX:NYSE:CDM) today reported all-time record
quarterly net income of $32.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share,
for the second quarter of 2006, compared to a net loss of $1.7
million, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the year-ago period. Cash
provided by operations was an all-time quarterly record of $32.0
million, compared to $9.1 million of cash used by operations in the
year-ago quarter. Results for the second quarter of 2006 include
the favorable impact of the company's strategic sale of 100% of the
shares of Coeur Silver Valley (CSV), specifically a one-time
pre-tax gain of $11.2 million. The quarter also includes pre-tax
income of $1.4 million from CSV operations at the Galena mine.
Excluding the one-time gain and the income from Galena, the
company's net income in the second quarter of 2006 was still a
record $20.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share. For the first six
months of 2006, the company reported record net income of $47.0
million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $2.8
million, or $0.01 per share, for the same period of 2005. Excluding
the one- time gain mentioned above and $2.0 million of pretax
income from discontinued operations, the company's net income for
the first six months of 2006 was still a record $33.9 million, or
$0.12 per diluted share. Metal sales from continuing operations in
the second quarter of 2006 increased 61 percent to $54.0 million
from $33.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Metal sales from
continuing operations for the first six months of 2006 increased 50
percent to $98.9 million from $65.7 million in the year-ago period.
In commenting on the company's performance relative to the year-ago
quarter, Dennis E. Wheeler, Chairman, President and Chief Executive
Officer, said, "The company's operating performance improved
sharply due to improvement in nearly all of our key business
indicators. Specifically, the company reported higher silver
production, lower per-ounce cash production costs for silver, and
sharply higher realized prices for silver and gold." Wheeler added,
"During the quarter, we completed the profitable sale of our
interest in Coeur Silver Valley as part of our strategy to focus
our growth on lower cost, longer-life mines. That transaction
generated $15 million in cash for the company. At the same time, by
eliminating the highest-cost mine in our system, where silver cash
production costs were recently running above $10 per ounce, the
transaction contributed to a significant reduction in the company's
overall per-ounce silver cash production cost. We are pleased that
we not only met our strategic objective with this sale but that we
also reported an increase in silver production from continuing
operations due largely to strong performance at Cerro Bayo combined
with the ounces generated by our Australian interests." Wheeler
said, "Gold and silver prices have remained at the kind of robust
levels that enable the company to generate healthy income and cash
flow. Our bullish view of the precious metals markets remains
unchanged. Growth in silver demand appears to be particularly
robust in the industrial sector, and we expect healthy price levels
to continue. At the same time, we are counting on strong operating
performance by our mines in the second half of the year and expect
to see silver production at noticeably higher levels than in the
first half, with the Cerro Bayo and Rochester mines, in particular,
setting the pace." Highlights by Individual Property -- Rochester
(Nevada) -- Silver cash cost per ounce declined by 66 percent,
relative to the year-ago quarter, due to a 27 percent increase in
gold production. Silver production was down modestly due to the
short-term impact of heavy rains that affected silver in the
solution flow. -- Cerro Bayo (Chile) -- Silver production was 53
percent above the level of the first quarter of 2006 as grades
returned to more typical levels as planned. At $1.82, silver cash
cost per ounce in the second quarter of 2006 was the lowest in the
Coeur system and was significantly below that reported for the
first quarter of 2006 due largely to higher silver production.
Silver production was 14 percent above that of a year ago due to an
increase in tons milled. Gold production declined relative to the
year-ago period due to lower grades. Lower gold production resulted
in a reduced by-product credit, which caused silver cash cost per
ounce to increase relative to the year-ago quarter. -- Martha
(Argentina) -- Silver and gold production were above the levels of
the year-ago quarter -- and sharply above the levels of the first
quarter of 2006 -- primarily because the operation encountered
grades for both metals that were much higher than forecast in the
mine plan. Silver cash cost per ounce increased relative to the
year-ago period due to higher royalties resulting from higher
market prices. -- Endeavor (Australia) -- Silver production was
above the level of the second quarter of 2005 because year-ago
results reflected only one month of production data following
Coeur's acquisition of this interest in June of 2005. Production
rates at Endeavor have not yet returned to expected quarterly
levels as the mine continues to recover from a rock fall that
occurred in October 2005. Coeur currently expects production levels
to return to normal levels during the fourth quarter of 2006. Cash
production cost in the second quarter of 2006 was above the level
of a year ago due to higher smelting and refining charges
associated with the increased market value of silver deductions
charged pursuant to the smelting and refining contracts. -- Broken
Hill (Australia) -- Silver production was 528,041 ounces, with a
cash cost per ounce of $3.27. Cash production cost per ounce was
above the level of the preceding quarter due to higher refining and
smelting charges associated with the increased market value of
silver deductions charged pursuant to the smelting and refining
contracts. (Year-ago comparisons for Broken Hill are not meaningful
because the mineral interest was acquired in the third quarter of
2005.) In addition, at Broken Hill, proven and probable silver
mineral reserve ounces increased 20 percent to 18.0 million
contained ounces as of June 2006 from 15.0 million contained ounces
at year-end 2005. Balance Sheet and Capital Investment Highlights
The company had $393.3 million in cash and short-term investments
as of June 30, 2006. Capital investment during the second quarter
of 2006 totaled $25.7 million, most of which was spent on the
Kensington (Alaska) gold project. -- At Kensington, capital
investment totaled $20.9 million during the quarter as the company
continued with an aggressive construction schedule. The company is
aiming to complete the project and start producing gold near the
end of 2007. Recent activity has focused on construction of the
mill building and completion of major earthworks. Kensington is
expected to produce 100,000 ounces of gold annually. -- At San
Bartolome, capital investment totaled $1.5 million during the
quarter. The company is aiming to complete construction activities
near the end of 2007. During the second quarter, the construction
activities continued to focus on rough-cut grading of the plant
site and construction of roads. Coeur has been pleased by the
recent cooperative and productive actions of the Government of
Bolivia. In particular, the company recently completed
renegotiation of a contract with the Bolivian State Mining Company
(COMIBOL) concerning timing of lease payments; entered into an
agreement with COMIBOL that calls for joint exploration of certain
COMIBOL silver properties in Potosi; and received a letter of
assurance from the Minister of Mines regarding the government's
support for the San Bartolome project. Based on such developments,
Coeur is proceeding with engineering and procurement activities.
San Bartolome is expected to produce 8 million ounces of silver
annually. Exploration During the second quarter, the company
acquired two new exploration properties in the Santa Cruz province
near the company's Martha mine via option-to-purchase agreements
with private Argentinean interests. The largest is the Costa
property, at 98,500 acres, which lies about 90 miles north-
northwest of Martha. The second property, called El Aguila, is
located in the eastern part of the province approximately 90 miles
north of the town of San Julian. The company has commenced
exploration activities at both properties. In the second quarter,
the exploration program focused primarily on existing properties,
with an emphasis on reserve development/delineation drilling and
discovery of new mineralization at Cerro Bayo, Martha, and
Kensington. Approximate drilling totals were 62,000 feet at Cerro
Bayo, 17,000 feet at Martha, and 23,000 feet at Kensington. Coeur
d'Alene Mines Corporation is one of the world's leading primary
silver producers and has a strong presence in gold. The company has
mining interests in Alaska, Argentina, Australia, Bolivia, Chile,
and Nevada. Conference Call Information Coeur d'Alene Mines

contained in the ore. The Company estimates the ultimate recovery
to be approximately 61.5% for silver and 93% for gold. However,
ultimate recoveries will not be known until leaching operations
cease which is currently estimated for 2011. Current recovery may
vary significantly from ultimate recovery. See Critical Accounting
Policies and Estimates - Ore on Leach Pad. (B) The Company acquired

per Ounce" are calculated by dividing the cash costs computed for
each of the Company's 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 costs per
ounce as a key indicator of the profitability of each of its mining
properties. Gold and silver are sold and priced in the world
financial markets on a US dollar per ounce basis. "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 expense,
on-site general and administrative costs, royalties, in-mine
drilling expenditures that are 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, corporate general and administrative
expense, exploration, interest, and pre-feasibility costs and
accruals for mine reclamation. Cash costs are calculated and
presented using the "Gold Institute Production Cost Standard"
applied consistently for all periods presented. Total cash costs
per ounce is a non-GAAP measurement and investors are cautioned not
to place undue reliance on it and are urged to read all 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-GAAP Cash Costs to GAAP Production Costs"
set forth below. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Cash Costs to GAAP
Production Costs The tables below present reconciliations between
Non-GAAP cash costs per ounce to production costs applicable to
sales including depreciation, depletion and amortization (GAAP).
